However, the short range communication case is more realistic due to the limited communication ability. In this case, the non-flocking behavior can be frequently observed in numerical simulations. Furthermore, it has potential applications in many practical situations, such as the opinion disagreement in society, fish flock breaking and so on. Therefore, we firstly consider the non-flocking behavior of the delayed Cuckerbegin{document}$ - $end{document}Smale model. Based on a key inequality of position variance, a simple sufficient condition of the initial data to the non-flocking behavior is established. Then, for general communication weights we obtain a flocking result, which also depends upon the initial data in the short range communication case. Finally, with no restriction on the initial data we further establish other large time behavior of classical solutions.","PeriodicalId":49942,"journal":{"name":"Kinetic and Related Models","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81719000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As in the $L^2$ and $H^1$ setting, there is lack of coercivity in $H^k$ for the associated operator. To remedy this issue, we shall modify the usual $H^k$ norm with certain well-chosen mixed terms and with suitable coefficients which are constructed by induction on $k$. In parallel, a similar strategy but with coefficients depending on time (c.f. cite{Herau}), usually referred as H'erau's method, can be employed to prove global hypoellipticity in $H^k$. The exponents in our regularity estimates are optimal in short time. Moreover, as in our recent work cite{GLWZ}, the general results here can be applied in the mean-field setting to get estimates independent of the dimension; in particular, an application to the Curie-Weiss model is presented.","PeriodicalId":49942,"journal":{"name":"Kinetic and Related Models","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73553713","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
