On non-autonomously forced Burgers equation with periodic and Dirichlet boundary conditions

We study the non-autonomously forced Burgers equation $$u_t(x,t) + u(x,t)u_x(x,t) - u_{xx}(x,t) = f(x,t)$$ on the space interval $(0,1)$ with two sets of the boundary conditions: the Dirichlet and periodic ones. For both situations we prove that there exists the unique $H^1$ bounded trajectory of this equation defined for all $t\in \mathbb{R}$. Moreover we demonstrate that this trajectory attracts all trajectories both in pullback and forward sense. We also prove that for the Dirichlet case this attraction is exponential

Algorithm for rigorous integration of Delay Differential Equations and the computer-assisted proof of periodic orbits in the Mackey-Glass equation

We present an algorithm for the rigorous integration of Delay Differential Equations (DDEs) of the form $x'(t)=f(x(t-\tau),x(t))$. As an application, we give a computer assisted proof of the existence of two attracting periodic orbits (before and after the first period-doubling bifurcation) in the Mackey-Glass equation

Existence of globally attracting solutions for one-dimensional viscous Burgers equation with nonautonomous forcing - a computer assisted proof

We prove the existence of globally attracting solutions of the viscous Burgers equation with periodic boundary conditions on the line for some particular choices of viscosity and non-autonomous forcing. The attract- ing solution is periodic if the forcing is periodic. The method is general and can be applied to other similar partial differential equations. The proof is computer assisted.Comment: 38 pages, 1 figur

Stabilizing effect of large average initial velocity in forced dissipative PDEs invariant with respect to Galilean transformations

We describe a topological method to study the dynamics of dissipative PDEs on a torus with rapidly oscillating forcing terms. We show that a dissipative PDE, which is invariant with respect to Galilean transformations, with a large average initial velocity can be reduced to a problem with rapidly oscillating forcing terms. We apply the technique to the Burgers equation, and the incompressible 2D Navier-Stokes equations with a time-dependent forcing. We prove that for a large initial average speed the equation admits a bounded eternal solution, which attracts all other solutions forward in time. For the incompressible 3D Navier-Stokes equations we establish existence of a locally attracting solution

Connecting orbits for a singular nonautonomous real Ginzburg-Landau type equation

We propose a method for computation of stable and unstable sets associated to hyperbolic equilibria of nonautonomous ODEs and for computation of specific type of connecting orbits in nonautonomous singular ODEs. We apply the method to a certain a singular nonautonomous real Ginzburg-Landau type equation, which that arises from the problem of formation of spots in the Swift-Hohenberg equation.Comment: 36 pages, 6 figure
