Transport of Gaussian measures under the flow of Hamiltonian PDEs: quasi-invariance and singularity

Catégorie d'évènement : Groupe de Travail Équations aux Derivées Partielles et Applications (Nancy) Date/heure : 24 septembre 2024 09:15-10:15 Lieu : Salle Döblin Oratrice ou orateur : Leonardo Tolomeo (University of Edinburgh) Résumé :

In this talk, we consider the Cauchy problem for the fractional NLS with cubic nonlinearity (FNLS), posed on the one-dimensional torus T, subject to initial data distributed according to a family of Gaussian measures.

We first discuss how the flow of Hamiltonian equations transports these Gaussian measures. When the transported measure is absolutely continuous with respect to the initial measure, we say that the initial measure is quasi-invariant.

In the high-dispersion regime, we exploit quasi-invariance to build a (unique) global flow for initial data with negative regularity, in a regime that cannot be replicated by the deterministic (pathwise) theory.

In the 0-dispersion regime, we discuss the limits of this approach, and exhibit a sharp transition from quasi-invariance to singularity, depending on the regularity of the initial measure.

This is based on joint works with J. Forlano (UCLA/University of Edinburgh) and with J. Coe (University of Edinburgh).


Structure-preserving low-regularity integrators for dispersive nonlinear equations

Catégorie d'évènement : Séminaire Équations aux Derivées Partielles et Applications (Nancy) Date/heure : 24 septembre 2024 10:45-11:45 Lieu : Salle Döblin Oratrice ou orateur : Georg Maierhofer (Oxford) Résumé :

Abstract: Dispersive nonlinear partial differential equations can be used to describe a range of physical systems, from water waves to spin states in ferromagnetism. The numerical approximation of solutions with limited differentiability (low-regularity) is crucial for simulating fascinating phenomena arising in these systems including emerging structures in random wave fields and dynamics of domain wall states, but it poses a significant challenge to classical algorithms. Recent years have seen the development of tailored low-regularity integrators to address this challenge. Inherited from their description of physicals systems many such dispersive nonlinear equations possess a rich geometric structure, such as a Hamiltonian formulation and conservation laws. To ensure that numerical schemes lead to meaningful results, it is vital to preserve this structure in numerical approximations. This, however, results in an interesting dichotomy: the rich theory of existent structure-preserving algorithms is typically limited to classical integrators that cannot reliably treat low-regularity phenomena, while most prior designs of low-regularity integrators break geometric structure in the equation. In this talk, we will outline recent advances incorporating structure-preserving properties into low-regularity integrators. Starting from simple discussions on the nonlinear Schrödinger and the Korteweg–de Vries equation we will discuss the construction of such schemes for a general class of dispersive equations before demonstrating an application to the simulation of low-regularity vortex filaments. This is joint work with Yvonne Alama Bronsard, Valeria Banica, Yvain Bruned and Katharina Schratz.
