2 Preliminaries Physical Model: a continuum (fluid or population) with density distribution u(x, t) 0 and velocity field v(x, t). Continuity equation u t = (u v). Darcy s law: v derives from a potential (fluids in porous media): v = P. The relation between P and u: for gasses in porous media, Leibenzon and Muskat (1930) derived a relation in the form of the state law P = f (u), where f is a nondecreasing scalar function. f (u) is linear when the flow is isothermal and is a higher power of u when the flow is adiabatic, i.e. f (u) = cu m 1 with c > 0 and m > 1. The linear dependence f (u) = cu Boussinesq (1903) modelling water infiltration in an almost horizontal soil layer u t = c u 2. The model u t = (c/m) u m. The Porous Medium Equation u t = u m. 2 / 21

4 Definition of the Fractional Laplacian Several equivalent definitions of the nonlocal operator ( ) s (Laplacian of order 2s): 1 Fourier transform ( ) s g(ξ) = (2π ξ ) 2s ĝ(ξ). [ can be used for positive and negative values of s ] 2 Singular Kernel ( ) s g(x) = c N,s P.V. R N 3 Heat semigroup g(x) g(z) x z N+2s [ can be used for 0 < s < 1, where c N,s is a normalization constant. ] ( ) s g(x) = 4 Generator of the 2s-stable Levy process: dz 1 Γ( s) (e t g(x) g(x)) dt 0 t. 1+s ( ) s 1 g(x) = lim h 0 h E[g(x) g(x + X h)]. 4 / 21

5 Porous medium with nonlocal pressure The pressure p = ( ) s (u), 0 < s < 1: The model: ( ) s (u) = K s u = R N u(y) x y N 2s dy, Ks(x) = C N,s x (N 2s). tu = (u p), p = ( ) s (u). Difficulties: no maximum principle, no uniqueness.

The initial data u(x, 0) = u 0(x) for x R N, u 0 R N [0, ) is assumed to be a bounded integrable function. D. Stan, F. del Teso and J.L.

11 Existence of weak solutions for m > 1 Theorem. Let 1 < m <, N 1, and let u 0 L 1 (R N ) L (R N ) and nonnegative. Main results: Existence of a weak solution u 0 of Problem (PMFP) with initial data u 0. Conservation of mass: For all 0 < t < T we have R N u(x, t)dx = R N u0(x)dx. L estimate: u(, t) u 0, 0 < t < T L p energy estimate: For all 1 < p < and 0 < t < T we have 4p(p 1) up (x, t)dx + R N (m + p 1) 2 t 0 R N 1 s ( ) 2 u m+p dxdt up 0 (x)dx.

12 Smoothing effect Theorem Let u 0 be a weak solution of Problem (PMFP) with u 0 L 1 (R N ) L (R N ), u 0 0, as constructed before. Then where γ p = u(, t) L (R N ) C N,s,m,p t γp u 0 δp L p (R N ) for all t > 0, N (m 1)N+2p(1 s), δ p = 2p(1 s) (m 1)N+2p(1 s). Existence of weak solutions for only u 0 M + (R N ).

13 Existence for measure data Let 1 < m <, N 1 and µ M + (R N ). Then there exists a weak solution u 0 of Problem (P) s.t. the smoothing effect holds for p = 1 in the following sense: u(, t) L (R N ) C N,s,m t γ µ(r N ) δ for all t > 0, (1) N where γ = 2(1 s) (m 1)N+2(1 s) (m 1)N+2(1 s) Regularity: u L ((τ, ) L 1 (R N )) L (R N (τ, )) L ((0, ) M + (R N )) for all τ > 0 Conservation of mass: For all 0 < t < T we have R N u(x, t)dx = R N dµ(x).

14 Finite speed of propagation for m 2 Theorem Assume that u 0 has compact support and u(x, t) is bounded for all x, t. Then u(, t) is compactly supported for all t > 0. If 0 < s < 1/2 and u 0(x) U 0(x) = a( x b) 2, then there is a constant C large enough s.t. u(x, t) U(x, t) = a(ct ( x b)) 2. For 1/2 s < 2 C = C(t) is an increasing function of t. Consequence: Free Boundaries! Figure : u 0 U 0 Figure : u(x, t) U(x, t) 14 / 21

15 Infinite speed of propagation for m (1, 2) and N = 1 Theorem. Let m (1, 2), s (0, 1) and N = 1. Let u be the solution of Problem (PMFP) with initial data u 0 0 radially symmetric and monotone decreasing in x. Then u(x, t) > 0 for all t > 0, x R. Idea of the proof: Prove that v(x, t) = x u(y, t)dy > 0 for t > 0, x R. The integrated problem tv = v x m 1 ( ) 1 s v The initial data is given by v 0(x) = x u0(y)dy. (IP) Initial data v 0(x) satisfies: v 0(x) = 0 for x < η, v 0(x) = M for x > η, v 0(x) 0 for x ( η, η). Figure : Typical initial data for models (P) and (IP). 15 / 21

(P1) Self Similar Solutions V (x, t) = t α 2 F 2(t β 2 x) α 2 = Nβ 2, β 2 = with 1 N( m 1)+2 2 s, (F m 1 2 ( ) s F 2) = β 2 (y F 2). (P2) J. L. Vázquez. Barenblatt solutions and asymptotic behaviour for a nonlinear fractional heat equation of porous medium type. JEMS D. Stan, F. del Teso and J.L. Vázquez, Transformations of Self-Similar Solutions for porous medium equations of fractional type, Non.Analysis, arxiv: Theorem. Transformation of self similar solutions If m > N/(N + 2s), s (0, 1) and F 1 is a solution to the profile equation (P1) then F 2(x) = (β 1/β 2) m 1 m (F 1(x)) m is a solution to the profile equation (P2) if we put m = (2m 1)/m and s = 1 s. 16 / 21

17 FPME: The profile F 1(y) is a smooth and positive function in R N, it is a radial function, it is monotone decreasing in r = y and has a definite decay rate as y, that depends on m. For m > N/(N + 2s), F 1(y) y (N+2s) for large y. [Vázquez, JEMS 2014] Consequence: PMFP: F 2 > 0 and F 2(x) C x (N+2 2 s)/(2 m) if m ((N s)/n, 2). Infinite Propagation for Self-Similar Solutions of the PMFP in R N, N 1, m < 2. Similar results are proved for smaller values of m. 17 / 21
