The Gravity Water Wave System in 2D

The evolution of a perfect fluid (with constant density equal to 1) withvelocity v and pressure p :

(vt + v · ∇v) = −∇p − gen x ∈ Ωt

∇ · v = 0 x ∈ Ωt

v(0, x) = v0(x) x ∈ Ω0 ,

where g = 1 is the gravitational constant. The free surface St := ∂Ωt

moves with the normal component of the velocity, and, in absence ofsurface tension, the pressure vanishes on the boundary :

∂t + v · ∇ is tangent to⋃

t St ⊂ Rn+1

p(t, x) = 0 , x ∈ St .(1)

In the case of irrotational flows, i.e. curl v = 0 one can reduce this to asystem on the boundary. Assume that Ωt ⊂ R2 is the region below thegraph of a function h : Rt × Rx → R and let Φ denote the velocitypotential : ∇Φ(t, x , y) = v(t, x , y), for (x , y) ∈ Ωt . Ifφ(t, x) := Φ(t, x , h(x , t)) is the restriction of Φ to the boundary St , theequations of motion reduce to the following system for the unknownsh, φ : Rt × Rx → R :

∂th = G (h)φ

∂tφ = −h − 12 |φx |

2 + 12(1+|hx |2)

(G (h)φ+ hxφx)2

with

G (h) :=

√1 + |hx |2N(h)

where N(h) is the Dirichlet-Neumann operator associated to Ωt .

Main ideas : The energy method (to recover the high Sobolev norm) +The Fourier transform method (to recover non-L2 norms).

We use both the Eulerian formulation and the Lagrangian formulation :

zt(t, α) = v(t, z(t, α)), z(0, α) = α + ih(α).

This satisfies the nonlinear system

ztt + i = iazα, z t = Hzz t ,

where a = −|zα|−1∂P/∂n is the Raileigh–Taylor coefficient and

(Hz)(t, α) :=1

∫R

z(t, α)− z(t, β)zβ(t, β) dβ.

Wu’s modified Lagrangian variables : We use Wu’s change ofcoordinates k to obtain cubic equations amenable to energy estimates :

ζ := z k−1, u := zt k−1, w := ztt k−1,

where, with Kz = <Hz ,

k(t, α) := z(t, α) +1

Step 1. In Eulerian variables, the equations are, schematically, in the form

∂th = |∂x |φ− ∂x(h∂xφ)− |∂x |(h|∂x |φ) + Cubic(h, φx);

∂tφ = −h − (1/2)|φx |2 + (1/2)||∂x |φ|2 + Cubic(h, φx),

where the remainders are cubic expression of h, φx . We use a Shatahnormal form transformation H = h + A(h, h), Ψ = φ+ B(h, φ), forsuitable bilinear operators A and B to eliminate the quadraticnonlinearities and reduce this to an evolution equation of a complexvariable with a cubic nonlinearity. More precisely, letting V = H + iΛΨ, weshow that V satisfies an equation of the form

∂tV + iΛV = C (V , V ), Λ = |∂x |1/2,

where C is a nonlocal cubic quasilinear nonlinearity depending on allpossible combination of V and V , and some of their derivatives.

The Euler–Maxwell two-fluid modelTwo compressible ion and electron fluids interact with their ownself-consistent electromagnetic field.

together with the elliptic equations

div(B) = 0, div(E ) = 4πe(Zni − ne)

and two equations of state expressing pe = pe(ne) and pi = pi (ni ).() 23 mai 2013 14 / 26

These equations describe a plasma composed of electrons and one speciesof ions. The electrons have charge −e, density ne , mass me , velocity ve ,and pressure pe , and the ions have charge Ze, density ni , mass Mi ,velocity vi , and pressure pi . In addition, c denotes the speed of light and Eand B denote the electric and magnetic field. The two elliptic equationsare propagated by the dynamic flow, provided that we assume that theyare satisfied at the initial time.

At the linear level, there are ion-acoustic waves, Langmuir waves, as wellas light waves. At the nonlinear level, the Euler-Maxwell system is theorigin of many well-known dispersive PDE, such as KdV, KP, Zakharov,Zakharov-Kuznetsov, and NLS, which can be derived from via differentscaling and asymptotic expansions. One can also derive the Euler–Poissonmodel, the cold-ion model, and quasi-neutral equations.

Variants : 2D model Euler–Maxwell, relativistic versions, periodicsolutions.

The Euler-Poisson equation for the ions

∂tρ+ div((1 + ρ)u) = 0,

∂tu + u · ∇u +∇ρ = −∇φ,−∆φ = ρ− φ.

Here the electron dynamics with constant temperature is decoupled fromthe ion dynamics via the Boltzmann relation. The model equation is(

∂tt −∆ + (−∆)(1−∆)−1)α = |∇|Q(α,∇α).

This has intermediate behavior between wave and Klein–Gordon equations.There are strong degeneracies near the zero frequency, where thedispersion relation is similar to the wave dispersion up to third order.Guo–Pausader proved global regularity in the case of small, neutral, andirrotational perturbations by using a variation on the normal form method.A key property is the fact that the nonlinearity is an exact derivative (nullstructure), which helps compensate for the degeneracy at the 0 frequency.
