Abstract

This paper studies the existence and asymptotic stability of traveling shock waves for the one-dimensional full compressible Navier--Stokes--Poisson equations, which model viscous heat-conducting ions in a self-consistent electrostatic field. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of a smooth shock profile of small amplitude by the center manifold theorem, and then establish its large-time asymptotic stability under suitably small smooth perturbations. The proof is based on an energy estimate for a specially constructed integrated system derived from the full compressible Navier--Stokes--Poisson equations. To carry out this estimate, we introduce suitable anti-derivative variables that incorporate the effects of the self-consistent electrostatic potential and heat conduction, thereby reformulating the original system as a dissipative integrated one. The subsequent energy estimates are completed by carefully handling the induced couplings.

Asymptotic stability of viscous shock for the outflow problem of 3D Navier-Stokes system

We establish the asymptotic stability of planar viscous shock waves for the outflow problem of the three-dimensional barotropic compressible Navier--Stokes equations in a half-space, with periodic boundary conditions imposed in the transverse directions. For a weak shock located sufficiently far from the boundary, we p...

Time-asymptotic stability of generic Riemann solutions for viscous-dispersive heat-conducting compressible fluids

We establish the time-asymptotic stability of generic Riemann solutions for the one-dimensional Navier-Stokes-Fourier-Korteweg (NSFK) system, which describes the dynamics of viscous, heat-conducting, compressible fluids with internal capillarity. We prove that, for the adiabatic exponent $\gamma\in(1,2]$, the solution...

Existence and uniqueness of viscous-dispersive shock profiles for the Navier-Stokes-Fourier-Korteweg system

We establish the existence and uniqueness, up to translation, of monotone viscous-dispersive shock profiles for the one-dimensional Navier-Stokes-Fourier-Korteweg system, provided the two end states satisfy the Rankine-Hugoniot and Lax entropy conditions and the shock strength is small. Taking the shock strength as a s...

Shock profiles for the Navier--Stokes--Fourier--Poisson system under the Boltzmann relation

The one-dimensional compressible Navier--Stokes--Fourier--Poisson system under the Boltzmann relation is studied for the existence of small-amplitude viscous shock profiles connecting the Rankine--Hugoniot states of the quasineutral Euler system with effective pressure $P_{\mathrm{eff}}=\rho(\theta+1)$. This profile is...

Uniqueness and stability of planar shock wave to 2D compressible Euler equations in the vanishing viscosity limit of compressible Navier-Stokes equations

It is well known that the compressible Euler equations with planar shock initial data may admit infinitely many entropy weak solutions, as shown by Chiodaroli, De Lellis and Kreml [Comm. Pure Appl. Math. (2015)]. In this paper, we introduce a suitable notion of global-in-time weak solutions to the two-dimensional (2D)...

Global well-posedness and Decay estimates for solutions of the Navier--Stokes--Maxwell system

We investigate the global solvability and the large-time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Navier--Stokes--Maxwell system in two and three space dimensions. The system describes the interaction between a viscous incompressible fluid and an electromagnetic field through the Lorenz force and Ohm's law. The system e...
