Exponential decay for solutions to semilinear damped wave equation
This paper is concerned with decay estimate of solutions to the semilinear wave equation with strong damping in a bounded domain. Introducing an appropriate Lyaponuv function, we prove that when the damping is linear, we can find initial data, for which the solution decays exponentially. This result improves an early o...

Distinguishing mesoscopic quantum superpositions from statistical mixtures in periodically shaken double wells
For Bose-Einstein condensates in double wells, N-particle Rabi-like oscillations often seem to be damped. Far from being a decoherence effect, the apparent damping can indicate the emergence of quantum superpositions in the many-particle quantum dynamics. However, in an experiment it would be difficult to distinguish t...

By means of an equivalent second-order formulation, we prove long-time stability of the system without energy accumulation. We also give rates of damping in unforced systems and various cont...

Stability of partially locked states in the Kuramoto model through Landau damping with Sobolev regularity
The Kuramoto model is a mean-field model for the synchronisation behaviour of oscillators, which exhibits Landau damping. In a recent work, the nonlinear stability of a class of spatially inhomogeneous stationary states was shown under the assumption of analytic regularity. This paper proves the nonlinear Landau dampin...

Global well-posedness for the semilinear wave equation with time dependent damping in the overdamping case
We study global existence of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the wave equation with time-dependent damping and a power nonlinearity in the overdamping case. We prove the global well-posedness for small data in the energy space for the whole energy-subcritical case. This result implies that small data blow-up does n...

A note on the blowup of scale invariant damping wave equation with sub-Strauss exponent
We concern the blow up problem to the scale invariant damping wave equations with sub-Strauss exponent. This problem has been studied by Lai, Takamura and Wakasa (\cite{Lai17}) and Ikeda and Sobajima \cite{Ikedapre} recently. In present paper, we extend the blowup exponent from $p_F(n)\leq p<p_S(n+2\mu)$ to $1<p<p_S(n+...

Life-Span of Semilinear Wave Equations with Scale-invariant Damping: Critical Strauss Exponent Case
The blow up problem of the semilinear scale-invariant damping wave equation with critical Strauss type exponent is investigated. The life span is shown to be: $T(\varepsilon)\leq C\exp(\varepsilon^{-2p(p-1)})$ when $p=p_S(n+\mu)$ for $0<\mu<\frac{n^2+n+2}{n+2}$. This result completes our previous study \cite{Tu-Lin} on...

Spin-Noise and Damping in Individual Metallic Ferromagnetic Nanoparticles
We introduce a highly sensitive and relatively simple technique to observe magnetization motion in single Ni nanoparticles, based on charge sensing by electron tunneling at millikelvin temperature. Sequential electron tunneling via the nanoparticle drives nonequilibrium magnetization dynamics, which induces an effectiv...

Graviton-mediated dark matter model explanation the DAMPE electron excess and search at $e^+e^-$ colliders
The very recent result of the DAMPE cosmic ray spectrum of electrons shows a narrow bump above the background at around 1.4 TeV. We attempt to explain the DAMPE electron excess in a simplified Kaluza-Klein graviton-mediated dark matter model, in which the graviton only interacts with leptons and dark matter. The relate...

In this paper we study a Cauchy problem for the nonlinear damped wave equations for a general positive operator with discrete spectrum. We derive the exponential in time decay of solutions to the linear problem with decay rate depending on the interplay between the bottom of the operator's spectrum and the mass term. C...

Damped Newton's Method on Riemannian Manifolds
A damped Newton's method to find a singularity of a vector field in Riemannian setting is presented with global convergence study. It is ensured that the sequence generated by the proposed method reduces to a sequence generated by the Riemannian version of the classical Newton's method after a finite number of iteratio...

Asymptotic profile of solutions for strongly damped Klein-Gordon equations
We consider the Cauchy problem in the whole space for strongly damped Klein-Gordon equations. We derive asymptotic profles of solutions with weighted initial data by a simple method introduced by R. Ikehata. The obtained results show that the wave effect will be weak because of the mass term, especially in the low dime...

Damped second order flow applied to image denoising
In this paper, we introduce a new image denoising model: the damped flow (DF), which is a second order nonlinear evolution equation associated with a class of energy functionals of image. The existence, uniqueness and regularization property of DF are proven. For the numerical implementation, based on the St\"{o}rmer-V...

We prove cyclotron damping for the collisionless Vlasov-Maxwell equations on $\mathbb{T}_{x}^{3}\times\mathbb{R}_{v}^{3}$ under the assumptions that the electric induction is zero and $(\mathcal{\mathbf{PSC}})$ holds. It is a crucial step to solve the stability problem of the Vlasov-Maxwell equations. Our proof is base...

Radiation Damping of a Yang-Mills Particle Revisited
The problem of a color-charged point particle interacting with a four dimensional Yang-Mills gauge theory is revisited. The radiation damping is obtained inspired in the Dirac's computation. The difficulties in the non-abelian case were solved by using an ansatz for the Li\'enard-Wiechert potentials, already used in th...

Enhancement of zonal flow damping due to resonant magnetic perturbations in the background of an equilibrium $E \times B$ sheared flow
Using a parametric interaction formalism, we show that the equilibrium sheared rotation can enhance the zonal flow damping effect found in Ref. [M. Leconte and P.H. Diamond, \emph{Phys. Plasmas} 19, 055903 (2012)]. This additional damping contribution is proportional to $(L_s/L_V)^2 \times \delta B_r^2 / B^2$, where $L...

Optimal indirect stability of a weakly damped elastic abstract system of second order equations coupled by velocities
In this paper, by means of the Riesz basis approach, we study the stability of a weakly damped system of two second order evolution equations coupled through the velocities. If the fractional order damping becomes viscous and the waves propagate with equal speeds, we prove exponential stability of the system and, other...

In this paper, we study the linear inviscid damping for the linearized $\beta$-plane equation around shear flows. We develop a new method to give the explicit decay rate of the velocity for a class of monotone shear flows.

We report on experiments of perfect absorption for surface gravity waves impinging a wall structured by a subwavelength resonator. By tuning the geometry of the resonator, a balance is achieved between the radiation damping and the intrinsic viscous damping, resulting in perfect absorption by critical coupling. Besides...

Observations show that twisted magnetic flux tubes are present throughout the sun's atmosphere. The main aim of this work is to obtain the damping rate of sausage modes in the presence of magnetic twist. Using the connection formulae obtained by Sakurai et al. (1991), we investigate resonant absorption of the sausage m...

In the present paper, we give the Strichartz estimate in the wave endpoint case. We slightly modify the argument of Keel--Tao. Moreover, we apply the endpoint Strichartz estimate to the un...

Linear inviscid damping in Gevrey spaces
We prove linear inviscid damping near a general class of monotone shear flows in a finite channel, in Gevrey spaces. It is an essential step towards proving nonlinear inviscid damping for general shear flows that are not close to the Couette flow, which is a major open problem in 2d Euler equations.

Stabilization of two strongly coupled hyperbolic equations in exterior domains
In this paper we study the behavior of the total energy and the $L^2$-norm of solutions of two coupled hyperbolic equations by velocities in exterior domains. Only one of the two equations is directly damped by a localized damping term. We show that, when the damping set contains the coupling one and the coupling term ...
