Almost Sharp Global Well-Posedness for a class of Dissipative and Dispersive Equations on R in Low Regularity Sobolev Spaces
2014
In this paper we obtain global well-posedness in low order Sobolev spaces of higher order KdV type equations with dissipation. The result is optimal in the sense that the flow-map is not twice continuously differentiable in rougher spaces. The solution is shown to be smooth for positive times.
An inverse problem for the fractional Schr\"odinger equation in a magnetic field
2019
This paper shows global uniqueness in an inverse problem for a fractional magnetic Schr\"odinger equation (FMSE): an unknown electromagnetic field in a bounded domain is uniquely determined up to a natural gauge by infinitely many measurements of solutions taken in arbitrary open subsets of the exterior. The proof is based on Alessandrini's identity and the Runge approximation property, thus generalizing some previous works on the fractional Laplacian. Moreover, we show with a simple model that the FMSE relates to a long jump random walk with weights.
Calder\'on's problem for p-Laplace type equations
2016
We investigate a generalization of Calder\'on's problem of recovering the conductivity coefficient in a conductivity equation from boundary measurements. As a model equation we consider the p-conductivity equation with p strictly between one and infinity, which reduces to the standard conductivity equation when p equals two, and to the p-Laplace equation when the conductivity is constant. The thesis consists of results on the direct problem, boundary determination and detecting inclusions. We formulate the equation as a variational problem also when the conductivity may be zero or infinity in large sets. As a boundary determination result we recover the first order derivative of a smooth co…
Linearized Calder\'on problem and exponentially accurate quasimodes for analytic manifolds
2020
In this article we study the linearized anisotropic Calder\'on problem on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This problem amounts to showing that products of pairs of harmonic functions of the manifold form a complete set. We assume that the manifold is transversally anisotropic and that the transversal manifold is real analytic and satisfies a geometric condition related to the geometry of pairs of intersecting geodesics. In this case, we solve the linearized anisotropic Calder\'on problem. The geometric condition does not involve the injectivity of the geodesic X-ray transform. Crucial ingredients in the proof of our result are the construction of Gaussian beam quasimodes on the…
Reconstruction from boundary measurements for less regular conductivities
2012
In this paper, following Nachman's idea and Haberman and Tataru's idea, we reconstruct $C^1$ conductivity $\gamma$ or Lipchitz conductivity $\gamma$ with small enough value of $|\nabla log\gamma|$ in a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $\Lambda_{\gamma}$. In the appendix the authors and R. M. Brown recover the gradient of a $C^1$-conductivity at the boundary of a Lipschitz domain from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $\Lambda_{\gamma}$.
Stability estimates for the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator with partial measurements
2020
In this article, we study stability estimates when recovering magnetic fields and electric potentials in a simply connected open subset in $R^n$ with $n \geq 3$, from measurements on open subsets of its boundary. This inverse problem is associated with a magnetic Schr\"odinger operator. Our estimates are quantitative versions of the uniqueness results obtained by D. Dos Santos Ferreira, C. E. Kenig, J. Sj\"ostrand and G. Uhlmann in [13]. The moduli of continuity are of logarithmic type.
Determining an unbounded potential for an elliptic equation with a power type nonlinearity
2022
In this article we focus on inverse problems for a semilinear elliptic equation. We show that a potential $q$ in $L^{n/2+\varepsilon}$, $\varepsilon>0$, can be determined from the full and partial Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. This extends the results from [M. Lassas, T. Liimatainen, Y.-H. Lin, and M. Salo, Partial data inverse problems and simultaneous recovery of boundary and coefficients for semilinear elliptic equations, Rev. Mat. Iberoam. (2021)] where this is shown for H\"older continuous potentials. Also we show that when the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map is restricted to one point on the boundary, it is possible to determine a potential $q$ in $L^{n+\varepsilon}$. The authors of arXiv:2202.0…
Higher integrability and stability of (p,q)-quasiminimizers
2023
Using purely variational methods, we prove local and global higher integrability results for upper gradients of quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral with fixed boundary data, assuming it belongs to a slightly better Newtonian space. We also obtain a stability property with respect to the varying exponents $p$ and $q$. The setting is a doubling metric measure space supporting a Poincar\'e inequality.
Adiabatic evolution and shape resonances
2017
Motivated by a problem of one mode approximation for a non-linear evolution with charge accumulation in potential wells, we consider a general linear adiabatic evolution problem for a semi-classical Schrödinger operator with a time dependent potential with a well in an island. In particular, we show that we can choose the adiabatic parameter ε \varepsilon with ln ε ≍ − 1 / h \ln \varepsilon \asymp -1/h , where h h denotes the semi-classical parameter, and get adiabatic approximations of exact solutions over a time interval of length ε − N \varepsilon ^{-N} with an error O ( ε N ) {\mathcal O}(\varepsilon ^N) . Here N > 0 N>0 is arbitrary. \center Résumé \endcenter Motivés par un pro…
Carleman estimates for sub-Laplacians on Carnot groups
2022
In this note, we establish a new Carleman estimate with singular weights for the sub-Laplacian on a Carnot group $\mathbb G$ for functions satisfying the discrepancy assumption in (2.16) below. We use such an estimate to derive a sharp vanishing order estimate for solutions to stationary Schr\"odinger equations.
