Linear inviscid damping and vorticity depletion for shear flows

In this paper, we prove the linear damping for the 2-D Euler equations around a class of shear flows under the assumption that the linearized operator has no embedding eigenvalues. For the symmetric flows, we obtain the explicit decay estimates of the velocity, which is the same as one for monotone shear flows. We confirm a new dynamical phenomena found by Bouchet and Morita: the depletion of the vorticity at the stationary streamlines, which could be viewed as a new mechanism leading to the damping for the base flows with stationary streamlines.

Global well-posedness of the MHD equations in a homogeneous magnetic field

In this paper, we study the MHD equations with small viscosity and resistivity coefficients, which may be different. This is a typical setting in high temperature plasmas. It was proved that the MHD equations are globally well-posed if the initial velocity is close to 0 and the initial magnetic field is close to a homogeneous magnetic field in the weighted Hölder space, where the closeness is independent of the dissipation coefficients.

Energy identity for approximate harmonic maps from surface to general targets

Let $u_n$ be a sequence of mappings from a closed Riemannian surface $M$ to a general Riemannian manifold $N$. If $u_n$ satisfies \beno \sup_{n}\big(\|\nabla u_n\|_{L^2(M)}+\|τ(u_n)\|_{L^{p}(M)}\big)\leq Λ\quad \text{for some}\,\,p>1, \eeno where $τ(u_n)$ is the tension field of $u_n$, then there hold the so called energy identity and neckless property during blowing up. This result is sharp by Parker's example, where the tension fields of the mappings from Riemannian surface are bounded in $L^1(M)$ but the energy identity fails.

Regularity Criterion to the axially symmetric Navier-Stokes Equations

Smooth solutions to the axially symmetric Navier-Stokes equations obey the following maximum principle:$\|ru_θ(r,z,t)\|_{L^\infty}\leq\|ru_θ(r,z,0)\|_{L^\infty}.$ We first prove the global regularity of solutions if $\|ru_θ(r,z,0)\|_{L^\infty}$ or $ \|ru_θ(r,z,t)\|_{L^\infty(r\leq r_0)}$ is small compared with certain dimensionless quantity of the initial data. This result improves the one in Zhen Lei and Qi S. Zhang \cite{1}. As a corollary, we also prove the global regularity under the assumption that $|ru_θ(r,z,t)|\leq\ |\ln r|^{-3/2},\ \ \forall\ 0<r\leqδ_0\in(0,1/2).$

Multi-hump solitary waves of nonlinear Dirac equation

This paper concentrates on a (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear Dirac (NLD) equation with a general self-interaction, being a linear combination of the scalar, pseudoscalar, vector and axial vector self-interactions to the power of the integer $k+1$. The solitary wave solutions to the NLD equation are analytically derived, and the upper bounds of the hump number in the charge, energy and momentum densities for the solitary waves are proved in theory. The results show that: (1) for a given integer $k$, the hump number in the charge density is not bigger than $4$, while that in the energy density is not bigger than $3$; (2) those upper bounds can only be achieved in the situation of higher nonlinearity, namely, $k\in\{5,6,7,\cdots \}$ for the charge density and $k\in\{3,5,7,\cdots\}$ for the energy density; (3) the momentum density has the same multi-hump structure as the energy density; (4) more than two humps (resp. one hump) in the charge (resp. energy) density can only happen under the linear combination of the pseudoscalar self-interaction and at least one of the scalar and vector (or axial vector) self-interactions. Our results on the multi-hump structure will be interesting in the interaction dynamics for the NLD solitary waves.
