Compact kernel sections of long-wave-short-wave resonance equations on infinite lattices (Q2464547)

The authors study the long time behavior of the following nonautonomous lattice system defined on the integer set \(\mathbb{Z}\): \[ \begin{aligned} i {\dot{u}}_m - (Au)_m -u_m v_m + i \alpha u_m = f_m (t), &\quad m \in {\mathbb{Z}}, \;t> \tau,\\ {\dot{v}}_m + \beta v_m + \gamma (B(| u| ^2))_m =g_m (t), &\quad m \in {\mathbb{Z}}, \;t>\tau, \end{aligned} \] with the initial conditions: \[ u_m (\tau) = u_{m, \tau}, \quad v_m(\tau) = v_{m, \tau}, \quad m \in {\mathbb{Z}}, \;\tau \in {\mathbb{R}}, \] where \(\alpha, \beta\) and \(\gamma\) are positive constants, \(A\) and \(B\) are linear operators given by, for \(u=(u_m)_{m \in {\mathbb{Z}}}\), \[ (Au)_m = 2u_m -u_{m+1}-u_{m-1} \quad \text{and} \;\;(Bu)_m = u_{m+1} -u_m. \] The authors first prove the pullback asymptotic compactness of the dynamical processes associated with the above lattice system by deriving uniform estimates on the tails of solutions. Based on the asymptotic compactness, they establish the existence of compact kernel sections for the system. The upper semicontinuity and Kolmogorov \(\epsilon\)-entropy of the kernel sections are also discussed.
