Uncertainty estimates and L2 bounds for the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation
Jared C. Bronski, Tom Gambill
Abstract
We consider the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation in one spatial dimension with periodic boundary conditions. We apply a Lyapunov function argument similar to the one first introduced by Nicolaenko, Scheurer, and Temam, and later improved by Collet, Eckmann, Epstein and Stubbe, and Goodman, to prove that ||u||2 < C L1.5. This result is slightly weaker than that recently announced by Giacomelli and Otto, but applies in the presence of an additional linear destabilizing term. We further show that for a large class of Lyapunov functions ϕthe exponent 1.5 is the best possible from this line of argument. Further, this result together with a result of Molinet gives an improved estimate for L2 boundedness of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation in thin rectangular domains in two spatial dimensions.
