The solutions of the Cauchy problem of the KdV equation on a periodic domain $\T$,  \[ u_t +uu_x +u_{xxx} =0, \quad u(x,0)= \phi (x), \quad x\in \T, \ t\in \R,\]  possess neither  the sharp Kato smoothing property,  \[ \phi \in H^s (\T) \implies \partial ^{s+1}_xu \in L^{\infty}_x (\T, L^2 (0,T)),\]  nor the Kato smoothing property,  \[ \phi \in H^s (\T) \implies u\in L^2 (0,T; H^{s+1} (\T)).\]  Considered in this article is the Cauchy problem of the following dispersive equations posed on the periodic domain $\T$,  \[ u_t +uu_x +u_{xxx} - g(x) (g(x) u)_{xx} =0, \qquad u(x,0)= \phi (x), \quad x\in \T, \  t>0 \, ,\ \qquad (1) \]  where $g\in C^{\infty} (\T)$ is  a  real value function with  the support  \[ \mbox{$\omega = \{ x\in \T, \  g(x) \ne 0\}$.}\]  It is shown  that    \begin{itemize}  \item[(1)]  if $\omega\ne \emptyset$,   then the solutions of  the Cauchy problem (1) possess the Kato smoothing property;   \item[(2)] if     $g$ is a nonzero constant function,  then the solutions of  the Cauchy problem (1) possess the  sharp Kato smoothing property.   \end{itemize}

Abstract This paper is concerned with the positivity of solutions to the Cauchy problem for linear and nonlinear parabolic equations with the biharmonic operator as fourth order elliptic principal part. Generally, Cauchy problems for parabolic equations of fourth order have no positivity preserving property due to the change of sign of the fundamental solution. One has eventual local positivity for positive initial data, but on short time scales, one will in general have also regions of negativity. The first goal of this paper is to find sufficient conditions on initial data which ensure the existence of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the linear biharmonic heat equation which are positive for all times and in the whole space. The second goal is to apply these results to show existence of globally positive solutions to the Cauchy problem for a semilinear biharmonic parabolic equation.

We prove the local existence, uniqueness and stability of local solutions for the Cauchy problem of two-dimensional compressible Euler equations, where the initial data of velocity, density, specific vorticity [Formula: see text] and the spatial derivative of specific vorticity [Formula: see text].
