    On a drift-diffusion system for semiconductor devices

    Full text link
    In this note we study a fractional Poisson-Nernst-Planck equation modeling a semiconductor device. We prove several decay estimates for the Lebesgue and Sobolev norms in one, two and three dimensions. We also provide the first term of the asymptotic expansion as t→∞t\rightarrow\infty.Comment: to appear in Annales Henri Poincar\'

    An aggregation equation with a nonlocal flux

    Get PDF
    In this paper we study an aggregation equation with a general nonlocal flux. We study the local well-posedness and some conditions ensuring global existence. We are also interested in the differences arising when the nonlinearity in the flux changes. Thus, we perform some numerics corresponding to different convexities for the nonlinearity in the equation

    Boundedness and homogeneous asymptotics for a fractional logistic Keller-Segel equations

    Full text link
    In this paper we consider a dd-dimensional (d=1,2d=1,2) parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel equation with a logistic forcing and a fractional diffusion of order α∈(0,2)\alpha \in (0,2). We prove uniform in time boundedness of its solution in the supercritical range α>d(1−c)\alpha>d\left(1-c\right), where cc is an explicit constant depending on parameters of our problem. Furthermore, we establish sufficient conditions for ∥u(t)−u∞∥L∞→0\|u(t)-u_\infty\|_{L^\infty}\rightarrow0, where u∞≡1u_\infty\equiv 1 is the only nontrivial homogeneous solution. Finally, we provide a uniqueness result

    Critical Keller-Segel meets Burgers on S1{\mathbb S}^1: large-time smooth solutions

    Get PDF
    We show that solutions to the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel system on S1{\mathbb S}^1 with critical fractional diffusion (−Δ)12(-\Delta)^\frac{1}{2} remain smooth for any initial data and any positive time. This disproves, at least in the periodic setting, the large-data-blowup conjecture by Bournaveas and Calvez. As a tool, we show smoothness of solutions to a modified critical Burgers equation via a generalization of the method of moduli of continuity by Kiselev, Nazarov and Shterenberg. over a setting where the considered equation has no scaling. This auxiliary result may be interesting by itself. Finally, we study the asymptotic behavior of global solutions, improving the existing results.Comment: 17 page

    On a stochastic partial differential equation with non-local diffusion

    Full text link
    In this paper, we prove existence, uniqueness and regularity for a class of stochastic partial differential equations with a fractional Laplacian driven by a space-time white noise in dimension one. The equation we consider may also include a reaction term
