Boundedness of solutions of nonautonomous degenerate logistic equations

In this work we analyze the boundedness properties of the solutions of a nonautonomous parabolic degenerate logistic equation in a bounded domain. The equation is degenerate in the sense that the logistic nonlinearity vanishes in a moving region, $K(t)$, inside the domain. The boundedness character of the solutions depends not only on, roughly speaking, the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator in $K(t)$ but also on the way this moving set evolves inside the domain and in particular on the speed at which it moves.

Fractional powers approach of operators for higher order abstract Cauchy problems

In this paper we explore the theory of fractional powers of non-negative (and not necessarily self-adjoint) operators and its amazing relationship with the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind to obtain results of existence, regularity and behavior asymptotic of solutions for linear abstract evolution equations of $n$-th order in time, where $n\geqslant3$. We also prove generalizations of classical results on structural damping for linear systems of differential equations.

Well-posedness for some third-order evolution differential equations: A semigroup approach

In this paper, we discuss the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem associated with the third-order evolution equation in time $$ u_{ttt} +A u + ηA^{\frac13} u_{tt} +ηA^{\frac23} u_t=f(u) $$ where $η>0$, $X$ is a separable Hilbert space, $A:D(A)\subset X\to X$ is an unbounded sectorial operator with compact resolvent, and for some $λ_0>0$ we have $\mbox{Re}σ(A)>λ_0$ and $f:D(A^{\frac13})\subset X\to X$ is a nonlinear function with suitable conditions of growth and regularity.
