On Self-similar Blow-up in Evolution Equations of Monge–ampère Type: a View from Reaction-diffusion Theory

چکیده
We use techniques from reaction-diffusion theory to study the blow-up and existence of solutions of the parabolic Monge–Ampère equation with power source, with the following basic 2D model 0.1 (0.1) ut = −|Du|+ |u|u in R × R+, where in two-dimensions |D2u| = uxxuyy − (uxy) and p > 1 is a fixed exponent. For a class of “dominated concave” and compactly supported radial initial data u0(x) ≥ 0, the Cauchy problem is shown to be locally well-posed and to exhibit finite time blow-up that is described by similarity solutions. For p ∈ (1, 2], similarity solutions, containing domains of concavity and convexity, are shown to be compactly supported and correspond to surfaces with flat sides that persist until the blow-up time. The case p > 2 leads to single-point blow-up. Numerical computations of blow-up solutions without radial symmetry are also presented. The parabolic analogy of (0.1) in 3D for which |D2u| is a cubic operator is ut = |Du|+ |u|u in R × R+, and is shown to admit a wider set of (oscillatory) self-similar blow-up patterns. Regional self-similar blow-up in a cubic radial model related to the fourth-order M-A equation of the type ut = −|Du|+ u in R × R+, where the cubic operator |D4u| is the catalecticant 3× 3 determinant, is also briefly discussed.

Formation of blow-up singularities for the Navier–Stokes equations (NSEs) ut + (u · ∇)u = −∇p+∆u, divu = 0 in R × R+, with bounded data u0 is discussed. Using natural links with blow-up theory for nonlinear reaction-diffusion PDEs, some possibilities to construct special self-similar and other related solutions that are characterized by blow-up swirl with the angular speed near the blow-up time...
