Existence of solutions for the surface electromigration equation

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We consider a model that describes electromigration in nanoconductors known as surface electromigration (SEM) equation. Our purpose here is to establish local well-posedness for the associated initial value problem in Sobolev spaces from two different points of view. In the first one, we study the pure Cauchy problem and establish local well-posedness in Hs(mathbbR2), s>1/2. In the second one, we study the Cauchy problem on the background of a Korteweg-de Vries solitary traveling wave in a less regular space. To obtain our results we make use of the smoothing properties of solutions for the linear problem corresponding to the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation for the latter problem. For the former problem we use bilinear estimates in Fourier restriction spaces established by Molinet and Pilod.
