The Nineteenth Israeli Mini-Workshop in Applied and Computational Mathematics

Varga Kalantarov (Koc University, Istanbul)

Blow up of solutions of nonlinear parabolic and hyperbolic equations with positive initial energy

In this talk we will discuss the problem of global existence and non-existence of solutions with arbitrary positive initial energy of initial boundary value problems for nonlinear wave equations and nonlinear parabolic equations. Recent results on blow up of solutions of damped nonlinear wave equation, generalized KdV equation, unstable Cahn – Hilliard equation and generalized Kuramoto- Sivashinsky equation will be presented.
