We consider the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (mKdV) and prove that given any sum 𝑃 of solitons and breathers of (mKdV) (with distinct velocities), there exists a solution 𝑝 of (mKdV) such that 𝑝 ( 𝑡 ) − 𝑃 ( 𝑡 ) → 0 when 𝑡 → +∞ , which we call multi-breather. In order to do this, we work at the 𝐻 2 level (even if usually solitons are considered at the 𝐻 1 level). We will show that this convergence takes place in any 𝐻 𝑠 space and that this convergence is exponentially fast in time. We also show that the constructed multi-breather is unique in two cases: in the class of solutions which converge to the profile 𝑃 faster than the inverse of a polynomial of a large enough degree in time (we will call this a super polynomial convergence), or (without hypothesis on the convergence rate), when all the velocities are positive.","PeriodicalId":49604,"journal":{"name":"Revista Matematica Iberoamericana","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47705262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The problem involves three variables: two functions $u$ and $v$, and a domain $Omega$; with $u$ and $v$ being both positive in $Omega$, vanishing simultaneously on $partialOmega$ and satisfying an overdetermined boundary value problem involving the product of their normal derivatives on $partialOmega$. Precisely, we consider solutions $u, v in C(B_1)$ of $$-Delta u= f quadtext{and} quad-Delta v=gquadtext{in}quad Omega={u>0}={v>0} ,qquad frac{partial u}{partial n}frac{partial v}{partial n}=Qquadtext{on}quad partialOmegacap B_1.$$ Our main result is an epsilon-regularity theorem for viscosity solutions of this free boundary system. We prove a partial Harnack inequality near flat points for the couple of auxiliary functions $sqrt{uv}$ and $frac12(u+v)$. Then, we use the gained space near the free boundary to transfer the improved flatness to the original solutions. Finally, using the partial Harnack inequality, we obtain an improvement-of-flatness result, which allows to conclude that flatness implies $C^{1,alpha}$ regularity.","PeriodicalId":49604,"journal":{"name":"Revista Matematica Iberoamericana","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41665140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We obtain thereby a number of novel results of existence and multiplicity of geodesics joining any two points of a connected affine manifold, as well as causal geodesics connecting any two causally related points on a Lorentzian manifold. These results include a generalization of the well-known Hadamard-Cartan theorem of Riemannian geometry to the affine manifold context, as well as a new version of the so-called Lorentzian Hadamard-Cartan theorem using weaker assumptions than global hyperbolicity and timelike 1-connectedness required in the extant version. We also include a general discription of pseudoconvexity and disprisonment of broad classes of geodesics in terms of suitable restrictions of the exponential map. The latter description sheds further light on the the relation between pseudoconvexity and disprisonment of a given such class on the one hand, and geodesic connectedness by members of that class on the other.","PeriodicalId":49604,"journal":{"name":"Revista Matematica Iberoamericana","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46148702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
