A smooth center manifold theorem which applies to some ill-posed partial differential equations with unbounded nonlinearities (Q735058): Difference between revisions

The main result of the paper under review is an abstract theorem asserting existence of center manifolds for smooth flows. As consequence, existence of smooth center manifolds is proved for several partial differential equations including ill posed equations with unbounded nonlinearities. Moreover, the author derives smooth dependence with respect to some perturbations including unbounded ones. Various applications are given to several concrete equations such as the ill posed Boussinesq equation and system and the nonlinear Laplace equation in cylindrical domains.
