2 Doubly nonlinear parabolic equation Nonlinear parabolic equations of the form β( t u) u = f in (0, T ) with a maximal monotone graph β : R R, a domain of R N, and a given function f = f(x, t) : (0, T ) R have been studied in various contexts. The linear Laplacian is often replaced with nonlinear variants such as the so-called m-laplacian m given by m u = div ( u m 2 u ), 1 < m <, and then, the equation above is called a doubly nonlinear parabolic equation. 1/36

It is quite natural to build the existence and regularity theory for ( ) in some class of vector-valued functions, like the Lebesgue-Bochner space L p (0, T ; X). 2/36

6 Abstract theories A(u (t)) + B(u(t)) = f(t) in X, 0 < t < T. Barbu ( 75), Arai ( 79), Senba ( 86) established in L 2 (0, T ; H); time differentiation of the equation, which transforms it into another (more tractable) type of doubly nonlinear equation; some peculiar monotonicity condition, (Bu Bv, A(u v)) H 0. 3/36
7 Abstract theories (contd.) A(u (t)) + B(u(t)) = f(t) in X, 0 < t < T. Colli-Visintin ( 90), Colli ( 94) established in L 2 (0, T ; H) or L p (0, T ; V ), 1 < p < ; a power growth for A : V V, c 0 u p V Au, u V + C, Au p V C( u p V + 1). These approaches have been extensively studied by many authors. Recently, it was extended by Mielke-Rossi-Savaré ( 13) to a quite broad class of doubly nonlinear evolution. 4/36

9 Doubly nonlinear parabolic eq. with power nonlinearity Let us consider t u p 2 t u m u = f(x, t) in Q := (0, T ), where 1 < p, m <. u = 0 on (0, T ), u(, 0) = u 0 in, It is a simple case of the generalized Ginzburg-Landau eq. (Gurtin 96), β(u, u, t u) t u = div [ u ψ(u, u)] u ψ(u, u) + γ. This problem falls within the framework of Colli ( 94) in L p (0, T ; V ) by setting V = L p (), Au = u p 2 u, Bu = m u. Indeed, the p-power growth condition holds: u p V = Au, u V, Au p V = u p V. 5/36

The Lebesgue-Bochner space L q (0, T ; V ) approach: One needs to estimate t u and t u p(x) 2 t u in some L-B spaces. However, in the variable exponent setting, we should emphasize that w(x) p(x) dx w p(x) for w L p(x) (). L p(x) () Instead, we use σ p(x) ( w L p(x)) w(x) p(x) dx σ + p(x) ( w L p(x)) w Lp(x) () with σ p(x) (s) := min{sp, s p+ } and σ + p(x) (s) := max{sp, s p+ }. 10/36

Proposition 4 (Identification between L-B and L spaces) Let 1 p < and let p(x) be such that 1 p p + <. (iii) If u L p(x) (Q) with t u L p(x) (Q), then P u belongs to the space W 1,p (0, T ; L p(x) ()) and (P u) = P ( t u). (iv) If u W 1,p (0, T ; L p ()), then t (P 1 u) L p (Q) and t (P 1 u) = P 1 (u ). 21/36
47 Identification of subdifferentials in two settings Let ϕ : V = L p(x) () (, ] be proper, l.s.c., convex and define Φ : V = L p(x) (Q) (, ] by T ϕ(p u(t)) dt if ϕ(p u( )) L 1 (0, T ), Φ(u) := 0 otherwise. Proposition 5 (Identification of subdifferentials) For u V, ξ V with 1 < p p + <, ξ Q Φ(u) iff P ξ(t) ϕ(p u(t)) for a.e. t (0, T ). 22/36
48 Lebesgue space setting Define Ψ and Φ on V = L p(x) (Q) as, for u V, Ψ(u) := Φ(u) := T 0 Q 1 p(x) u(x, t) p(x) dx dt = T 0 ψ(p u(t)) dt, φ(p u(t)) dt if P u(t) X for a.e. t (0, T ), t φ(p u(t)) L 1 (0, T ), otherwise. Then by the latter proposition, the evolution eqn ( (1) (3)) is rewritten by Q Ψ( t (P 1 u)) + Q Φ(P 1 u) = f in V, u(0) = u 0. 23/36
49 Construction of solutions Step 1 (time-discretization). For n = 0,..., N 1, ( ) un+1 u n ψ + φ(u n+1 ) = f n+1 in V, h where h := T /N, t n := nh and f n := 1 tn h t n 1 P f(θ) dθ. Moreover, define a piecewise constant interpolant u N : (0, T ) X = W 1,m(x) 0 (); a piecewise linear interpolant u N : (0, T ) X. Then we get ψ(u N (t)) + φ(u N (t)) = f N (t) in V, for a.e. t (0, T ) with u N (0) = u 0 in the Lebesgue-Bochner space setting, and equivalently, Q Ψ( t (P 1 u N )) + Q Φ(P 1 u N ) = P 1 f N in V, u N (0) = u 0 in the Lebesgue space setting. 24/36

Moreover, define a piecewise constant interpolant u N : (0, T ) X = W 1,m(x) 0 (); a piecewise linear interpolant u N : (0, T ) X. Then we get ψ(u N (t)) + φ(u N (t)) = f N (t) in V, for a.e. t (0, T ) with u N (0) = u 0 in the Lebesgue-Bochner space setting, and equivalently, Q Ψ( t (P 1 u N )) + Q Φ(P 1 u N ) = P 1 f N in V, u N (0) = u 0 in the Lebesgue space setting. 24/36

52 Construction of solutions (contd.) Step 2 (energy estimates). Test discretized eqn. by (u n+1 u n )/h. Then t (P 1 u N ) p(x) dx dt + sup φ(u N (t)) C, t (0,T ] Q which also gives t (P 1 u N ) V C, sup t (0,T ] u N (t) X + sup t [0,T ] u N (t) X C. Recall that A = Q Ψ : v v p(x) 2 v is bounded from V to V. We conclude that Q Ψ( t (P 1 u N )) V C, which also implies the boundedness of Q Φ(P 1 u N ) in V by comparison. 25/36
53 Construction of solutions (contd.) Step 3 (Convergence). u N u strongly in C([0, T ]; V ), weakly star in L (0, T ; X), u N u strongly in L (0, T ; V ), weakly star in L (0, T ; X), P 1 u N û = P 1 u strongly in V, t (P 1 u N ) t û weakly in V, Q Φ(P 1 u N ) ξ weakly in V, Q Ψ( t (P 1 u N )) η weakly in V. Thus η + ξ = f in V. From the maximal monotonicity of Q Φ in V V, one can immediately obtain ξ Q Φ(û). It remains to show η Q Ψ( t û). 26/36

Thus η + ξ = f in V. From the maximal monotonicity of Q Φ in V V, one can immediately obtain ξ Q Φ(û). It remains to show η Q Ψ( t û). 26/36
55 Construction of solutions (contd.) To this end, by a standard technique, one has Q Ψ ( t (P 1 u N ) ) t (P 1 u N ) dx dt = Q Q Q ( P 1 f N Q Φ(P 1 u N ) ) t (P 1 u N ) dx dt ( P 1 f N ) t (P 1 u N ) dx dt φ(u N (T )) + φ(u 0 ). Passing to the limit as N, we have lim sup Q Ψ ( t (P 1 u N ) ) t (P 1 u N ) dx dt n Q f t û dx dt φ(u(t )) + φ(u 0 ) =? η t û dxdt. Q Q 27/36

57 Construction of solutions (contd.) Here we need: Proposition 6 (Chain rule for subdifferentials in a mixed frame) Let p( ) P() satisfy 1 < p p + <. Let u V be such that t u V. Suppose that there exists ξ V such that ξ Q Φ(u). Then, the function t ϕ(p u(t)) is absolutely continuous over [0, T ]. Moreover, for each t (0, T ), we have d dt ϕ(p u(t)) = η, (P u) (t) V for all η ϕ(p u(t)), whenever P u and ϕ(p u( )) are differentiable at t. In particular, for 0 s < t T, we have ϕ(p u(t)) ϕ(p u(s)) = (s,t) ξ τ u dx dτ. 28/36
58 Construction of solutions (contd.) Applying the latter chain-rule, we conclude that lim sup Q Ψ ( t (P 1 u N ) ) t (P 1 u N ) dx dt n u=p û = Prop 6 = Q Q Q Q f t û dx dt φ(u(t )) + φ(u 0 ) f t û dx dt φ(p û(t )) + φ(p û(0)) f t û dxdt Q ξ t û dxdt ξ+η=f = Q η t û dxdt, whence follows η Q Ψ( t û). Consequently, û solves (1) (3). 29/36

64 Outline of proof for the chain-rule Step 2 (Correspondence of ϕ λ and Φ λ ). Lemma 7 (Correspondence of ϕ λ and Φ λ ) It follows that Φ λ (u) = T 0 In particular, for u V and ξ V, ϕ λ (P u(t)) dt for all u V. ξ λ = Q Φ λ (u) iff P ξ λ (t) = ϕ λ (P u(t)) for a.a. t (0, T ). 32/36

Moreover, since ϕ λ is bounded, we see that ϕ λ (P u( )) L (0, T ; V ). Let ξ λ := Q Φ λ (u) and use a standard chain-rule in the L-B space setting. ϕ λ (P u(t)) ϕ λ (P u(s)) chain = Lem 7 = = t s t s ϕ λ (P u(τ )), (P u) (τ ) V dτ P ξ λ (τ ), (P u) (τ ) V dτ (s,t) ξ λ t u dxdτ, 0 s t T. 33/36
