Weak solutions for one-dimensional non-convex elastodynamics

We explore local existence and properties of classical weak solutions to the initial-boundary value problem of a one-dimensional quasilinear equation of elastodynamics with non-convex stored-energy function, a model of phase transitions in elastic bars proposed by Ericksen [19]. The instantaneous formation of microstructures of local weak solutions is observed for all smooth initial data with initial strain having its range overlapping with the phase transition zone of the Piola-Kirchhoff stress. As byproducts, it is shown that such a problem admits a local weak solution for all smooth initial data and local weak solutions that are smooth for a short period of time and exhibit microstructures thereafter for some smooth initial data. In a parallel way, we also include some results concerning one-dimensional quasilinear hyperbolic-elliptic equations.

On Lipschitz solutions for some forward-backward parabolic equations

We investigate the existence and properties of Lipschitz solutions for some forward-backward parabolic equations in all dimensions. Our main approach to existence is motivated by reformulating such equations into partial differential inclusions and relies on a Baire's category method. In this way, the existence of infinitely many Lipschitz solutions to certain initial-boundary value problem of those equations is guaranteed under a pivotal density condition. Finally, we study two important cases of forward-backward anisotropic diffusion in which the density condition can be realized and therefore the existence results follow together with micro-oscillatory behavior of solutions. The first case is a generalization of the Perona-Malik model in image processing and the other that of Höllig's model related to the Clausius-Duhem inequality in the second law of thermodynamics.

Convex integration and infinitely many weak solutions to the Perona-Malik equation in all dimensions

We prove that for all smooth nonconstant initial data the initial-Neumann boundary value problem for the Perona-Malik equation in image processing possesses infinitely many Lipschitz weak solutions on smooth bounded convex domains in all dimensions. Such existence results have not been known except for the one-dimensional problems. Our approach is motivated by reformulating the Perona-Malik equation as a nonhomogeneous partial differential inclusion with linear constraint and uncontrollable components of gradient. We establish a general existence result by a suitable Baire's category method under a pivotal density hypothesis. We finally fulfill this density hypothesis by convex integration based on certain approximations from an explicit formula of lamination convex hull of some matrix set involved.

Radial weak solutions for the Perona-Malik equation as a differential inclusion

The Perona-Malik equation is an ill-posed forward-backward parabolic equation with major application in image processing. In this paper we study the Perona-Malik type equation and show that, in all dimensions, there exist infinitely many radial weak solutions to the homogeneous Neumann boundary problem for any smooth nonconstant radially symmetric initial data. Our approach is to reformulate the $n$-dimensional equation into a one-dimensional equation, to convert the one-dimensional problem into a differential inclusion problem, and to apply a Baire's category method to generate infinitely many solutions.
