Approximation of evolution differential equations in scales of Hilbert spaces (Q1033924)

Let \(H\) be a separable and infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. The evolution differential equation \[ u'(t)=Au(t), \;t\in (0,T), \quad u(0)=\varphi, \;\varphi \in H \] is studied, where \(A:D\to H\) is a continuous nonlinear operator, \(D\) is a Hilbert space densely and continuously embedded in \(H\) and satisfying the condition \(\{e_k\}\subset D\), where \(\{e_k\}\) denote an orthonormal basis in \(H\). The approximation of the above equation in scales of Hilbert space is considered. Estimates for the time of existence of solutions and approximations in the chosen scales of spaces are given. The main result allows to develop constructive methods for obtaining such estimates in specific cases. As examples, the author considers abstract parabolic equations and nonlinear Cauchy-Kowalewski systems. In the later case, the constructive estimates for the time of existence of analytic solutions are used to solve the problem of the existence of equations describing the surface waves of an ideal fluid on a finite time interval.
