AbstractThis paper deals with the periodic homogenization of nonlocal parabolic Hamilton–Jacobi equations with superlinear growth in the gradient terms. We show that the problem presents different features depending on the order of the nonlocal operator, giving rise to three different cell problems and effective operators. To prove the locally uniform convergence to the unique solution of the Cauchy problem for the effective equation we need a new comparison principle among viscosity semi-solutions of integrodifferential equations that can be of independent interest.

In this study, we continue our study of the Cauchy problem associated with the Brinkman equations [see (1.1) and (1.2) below] which model fluid flow in certain types of porous media. Here, we will consider the flow in the upper half-space \[ \mathbb{R}_{+}^{3}=\left\{\left(x,y,z\right) \in\mathbb{R}^{3}\left\vert z\geqslant 0\right.\right\}, \] under the assumption that the plane $z=0$ is impenetrable to the fluid. This means that we will have to introduce boundary conditions that must be attached to the Brinkman equations. We study local and global well-posedness in appropriate Sobolev spaces introduced below, using Kato's theory for quasilinear equations, parabolic regularization and a comparison principle for the solutions of the problem.

We consider Hamilton–Jacobi equations, where the Hamiltonian depends discontinuously on both the spatial and temporal location. Our main result is the existence of viscosity solution to the Cauchy problem, and that the front tracking algorithm yields an L∞ contractive semigroup. We define a viscosity solution by treating the discontinuities in the coefficients analogously to "internal boundaries". The existence of viscosity solutions is established constructively via a front tracking approximation, whose limits are viscosity solutions, where by "viscosity solution" we mean a viscosity solution that posses some additional regularity at the discontinuities in the coefficients. We then show a comparison result that is valid for these viscosity solutions.

Let u ε and u be viscosity solutions of the oscillatory Hamilton–Jacobi equation and its corresponding effective equation. Given bounded, Lipschitz initial data, we present a simple proof to obtain the optimal rate of convergence O ( ε ) of u ε → u as ε → 0 + for a large class of convex Hamiltonians H ( x , y , p ) in one dimension. This class includes the Hamiltonians from classical mechanics with separable potential. The proof makes use of optimal control theory and a quantitative version of the ergodic theorem for periodic functions in dimension n = 1.

We study the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Landau–Ginzburg equation [Formula: see text] where α, β ∈ C with dissipation condition ℜα > 0. We are interested in the subcritical case [Formula: see text]. We assume that θ = | ∫ u0(x) dx| ≠ 0 and ℜδ (α, β) > 0, where [Formula: see text] Furthermore we suppose that the initial data u0 ∈ L1 are such that (1+|x|)au0 ∈ L1, with sufficiently small norm ε = ‖(1 + |x|)a u0 ‖1, where a ∈ (0,1). Also we assume that σ is sufficiently close to [Formula: see text]. Then there exists a unique solution of the Cauchy problem (*) such that [Formula: see text] satisfying the following time decay estimates for large t > 0[Formula: see text] Note that in comparison with the corresponding linear case the decay rate of the solutions of (*) is more rapid.

In this article we study the solvability of the analogue of the Cauchy problem for ordinary differential equations with Riemann–Liouville’s fractional derivatives with a nonlinear restriction on the right-hand side of functions in certain spaces. The conditions for solvability of the problem under consideration in given function spaces, as well as the conditions for existence of a unique solution are given. The study uses the method of reducing the problem to the second-kind Volterra equation, the Schauder principle of a fixed point in a Banach space, and the Banach-Cachoppoli principle of a fixed point in a complete metric space.

A parabolic partial differential equation [Formula: see text] is considered, where [Formula: see text] is a linear second-order differential operator with time-independent (but dependent on [Formula: see text]) coefficients. We assume that the spatial coordinate [Formula: see text] belongs to a finite- or infinite-dimensional real separable Hilbert space [Formula: see text]. The aim of the paper is to prove a formula that expresses the solution of the Cauchy problem for this equation in terms of initial condition and coefficients of the operator [Formula: see text]. Assuming the existence of a strongly continuous resolving semigroup for this equation, we construct a representation of this semigroup using a Feynman formula (i.e. we write it in the form of a limit of a multiple integral over [Formula: see text] as the multiplicity of the integral tends to infinity), which gives us a unique solution to the Cauchy problem in the uniform closure of the set of smooth cylindrical functions on [Formula: see text]. This solution depends continuously on the initial condition. In the case where the coefficient of the first-derivative term in [Formula: see text] is zero, we prove that the strongly continuous resolving semigroup indeed exists (which implies the existence of a unique solution to the Cauchy problem in the class mentioned above), and that the solution to the Cauchy problem depends continuously on the coefficients of the equation.
