Linear and Quasi-linear Evolution Equations in Hilbert Spaces
Share this pagePascal Cherrier; Albert Milani
This book considers evolution equations of hyperbolic
and parabolic type. These equations are studied from a common point of view,
using elementary methods, such as that of energy estimates, which prove to be
quite versatile. The authors emphasize the Cauchy problem and present a unified
theory for the treatment of these equations. In particular, they provide local
and global existence results, as well as strong well-posedness and asymptotic
behavior results for the Cauchy problem for quasi-linear equations. Solutions
of linear equations are constructed explicitly, using the Galerkin method; the
linear theory is then applied to quasi-linear equations, by means of a
linearization and fixed-point technique. The authors also compare hyperbolic
and parabolic problems, both in terms of singular perturbations, on compact
time intervals, and asymptotically, in terms of the diffusion phenomenon, with
new results on decay estimates for strong solutions of homogeneous quasi-linear
equations of each type.
This textbook presents a valuable introduction to topics in the theory of
evolution equations, suitable for advanced graduate students. The exposition is
largely self-contained. The initial chapter reviews the essential material from
functional analysis. New ideas are introduced along with their context. Proofs
are detailed and carefully presented. The book concludes with a chapter on
applications of the theory to Maxwell's equations and von Karman's
equations.
