Abstract This paper is concerned with the positivity of solutions to the Cauchy problem for linear and nonlinear parabolic equations with the biharmonic operator as fourth order elliptic principal part. Generally, Cauchy problems for parabolic equations of fourth order have no positivity preserving property due to the change of sign of the fundamental solution. One has eventual local positivity for positive initial data, but on short time scales, one will in general have also regions of negativity. The first goal of this paper is to find sufficient conditions on initial data which ensure the existence of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the linear biharmonic heat equation which are positive for all times and in the whole space. The second goal is to apply these results to show existence of globally positive solutions to the Cauchy problem for a semilinear biharmonic parabolic equation.

AbstractWe study the Cauchy problem for the generalised fourth-order Schrödinger equation for data u0 in critical Sobolev spaces $\dot {H}^{1/2-3/2k}$. With small initial data we obtain global well-posedness results. Our proof relies heavily on the method developed by Kenig et al. [‘Well-posedness and scattering results for the generalised Korteweg–de Vries equation via the contraction principle’, Commun. Pure Appl. Math.46 (1993), 527–620].

The Cauchy Problem

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem with the far field condititon for the generalized Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burgers equation with a fourth-order dissipative term. When the corresponding Riemann problem for the hyperbolic part admits a Riemann solution which consists of single rarefaction wave, it is proved that the solution of the Cauchy problem tends toward the rarefaction wave as time goes to infinity. We can further obtain the same global asymptotic stability of the rarefaction wave to the generalized Korteweg–de Vries–Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burgers equation with a fourth-order dissipative term as the former one.
