Global existence and blow-up of solutions for a general class of doubly dispersive nonlocal nonlinear wave equations

This study deals with the analysis of the Cauchy problem of a general class of nonlocal nonlinear equations modeling the bi-directional propagation of dispersive waves in various contexts. The nonlocal nature of the problem is reflected by two different elliptic pseudodifferential operators acting on linear and nonlinear functions of the dependent variable, respectively. The well-known doubly dispersive nonlinear wave equation that incorporates two types of dispersive effects originated from two different dispersion operators falls into the category studied here. The class of nonlocal nonlinear wave equations also covers a variety of well-known wave equations such as various forms of the Boussinesq equation. Local existence of solutions of the Cauchy problem with initial data in suitable Sobolev spaces is proven and the conditions for global existence and finite-time blow-up of solutions are established.Comment: 17 page

On the 2d Zakharov system with L^2 Schr\"odinger data

We prove local in time well-posedness for the Zakharov system in two space dimensions with large initial data in L^2 x H^{-1/2} x H^{-3/2}. This is the space of optimal regularity in the sense that the data-to-solution map fails to be smooth at the origin for any rougher pair of spaces in the L^2-based Sobolev scale. Moreover, it is a natural space for the Cauchy problem in view of the subsonic limit equation, namely the focusing cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation. The existence time we obtain depends only upon the corresponding norms of the initial data - a result which is false for the cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation in dimension two - and it is optimal because Glangetas-Merle's solutions blow up at that time.Comment: 30 pages, 2 figures.

A mixed nonlinear time-fractional Rayleigh-Stokes equation

. This paper investigates a nonlinear time-fractional Rayleigh-Stokes equation with mixed nonlinearities containing a power-type function, a logarithmic function and an inverse time-forcing term. Applying Lagrange’s mean value theorem and the compactness of the Sobolev embeddings, we estimate the complex Lipschitz property of mixed nonlinearity. We investigate the local well-posed results (local existence, regularity estimate, continuation) of the solutions in Hilbert scales space. Moreover, the global existence theory affiliated to the finite-time blow-up is considere
