1 Introduction
In order to describe the interaction between high-frequency Langmuir waves and low frequency ion-acoustic waves, a set of coupled nonlinear wave equations was first derived by Zakharov [31]. In one dimension, the classical Zakharov equations can be written as
where the parameter \(\varrho \) is proportional to the ion-acoustic speed. However, the classical Zakharov equations did not consider the quantum effects. The importance of quantum effects in ultrasmall electronic devices, in dense astrophysical plasmas systems and in laser plasmas has produced an increasing interest on the investigation of the quantum counterpart of some of the classical plasmas physics phenomena [26]. By making use of a quantum fluid approach, the modified Zakharov equations for plasmas with a quantum correction in the dissipative case can be written as
where the complex function \(\psi (x,t)\) denotes the envelope of the high-frequency electric field and the real function u(x, t) represents the plasmas density measured from its equilibrium value. The dissipative mechanism of the system is introduced by the terms \(i\gamma \psi , \alpha u_{t}\), and \(\mu u\). The external forces f(x, t) and g(x, t) are complex and real-valued functions which are dependent on the time, respectively. The quantum parameter h expresses the ratio between the ion plasmon energy and electron thermal energy.
There are many works concerning the Cauchy problem and the initial boundary value problem of the continuous model of Zakharov equations or its related version, see [15–19] and the references therein. The soliton solution and numerical simulation were given to the continuous Zakharov equation with power law and dual-power law nonlinearities, see [10, 27]. However, there are few papers discussing the discrete modified Zakharov equations with a quantum correction.
Lattice dynamical systems (LDSs) are spatiotemporal systems with discretization in some variables which include coupled map lattices and coupled ordinary differential equations and cellular automata [6, 7]. Sometimes, LDSs arise as the spatial discretization of partial differential equations on unbounded domains. LDSs occur in a wide variety of applications, such as in chemical reaction theory [13, 22], in electrical engineering [11], in biology [23], image processing and pattern recognition [4, 5, 9], material science [21], laser systems [14], etc.
Recently, mathematicians and physicists have paid great attentions to the dynamics of infinite lattice systems, see [1–3, 6–8, 20, 28, 29, 32–37]. For example, the existence and upper semicontinuity of global attractors for autonomous lattice systems and other various properties of solutions for LDSs have been investigated [3, 6, 7, 28, 29, 32–35, 37] and the references therein. The exponential, uniform exponential, and pullback exponential attractors for nonautonomous lattice systems were investigated by [1, 2, 20, 36].
In this paper, we consider the following nonautonomous lattice system
with initial conditions
where \(\psi _{m}(\cdot )\in \mathbb {C}, u_{m}(\cdot )\in \mathbb {R}\), and \(\mathbb {C}\) and \(\mathbb {R}\) are the sets of complex and real numbers, respectively, \(\mathbb {Z}\) is the set of integer numbers, \(i=\sqrt{-1}\) is the unit of the imaginary numbers, \(h, \gamma ,\alpha \), and \(\mu \) are positive constants, and A and D are both linear operators defined as
Equations (1.5)–(1.6) can be regarded as a discrete analogue of Eqs. (1.3)–(1.4). So we also call it as discrete modified Zakharov equations with a quantum correction.
There are some references concerning the discrete Zakharov equations. For example, article [38] proved the existence and upper semicontinuity of the compact uniform attractor, and article [30] established the existence of global attractor. Very recently, Liang et al. [25] proved the existence of compact kernel sections for the lattice system (1.5)–(1.7). Also, they gave an upper bound of the Kolmogorov \(\varepsilon \)-entropy for the obtained kernel sections.
In this paper, we further discuss the property of the kernel sections obtained by [25]. Firstly, we give an upper bound of the fractal dimension for the kernel sections. Secondly, we establish the upper semicontinuity of the kernel sections when the infinite lattice system is approximated by the finite ordinary differential equations (ODEs).
We want to point out that our idea concerning the existence of the fractal dimension originates from article [24, 41], which is a minor extension of the criteria of [12]. It is worthy mentioning that this minor extension is valid for a type of lattice system which consists of the type of term \((Bu)_m\) or \((Au)_m\), such as lattice long-wave-short-wave resonance equations [40], lattice KGS-type equations [39], and lattice Zakharov equations discussed in this paper.
Compared to the lattice Zakharov equations discussed in [30], the lattice modified Zakharov equations with a quantum correction contains the additional term \((D\psi )_m\). It is this term and the nonlinear term \((A|\psi |^2)_m\) that cause some difficulty in deriving the fractal dimension of the kernel sections. We need do some rigorous analysis and technical estimations to deal with these two terms.
The rest of the paper is organized as follows. In Sect. 2, we first introduce some spaces and operators, then we recall some results on the existence, uniqueness, and some estimations of the solutions. Section 3 is devoted to obtain an upper bound of fractal dimension of the kernel sections to the discrete Zakharov equations for plasmas with a quantum correction. In the last section, we verify the upper semicontinuity of the kernel sections.
2 Preliminaries
We first introduce some notations and operators. Set
For brevity, we use X to denote \(\ell ^{2}\) or \(l^{2}\), and equip X with the inner product and norm as
where \(\bar{v}_{m}\) denotes the conjugate of \(v_{m}\). For any two elements \(u,v \in X\), we define a bilinear form on X by
where \(\mu \) is the constant from equation (1.6) and B is a linear operator defined as
We also define a linear operator \(B^{*}\) from X to X via
In fact, \(B^{*}\) is the adjoint operator of B and one can check that
Clearly, the bilinear form \((\cdot ,\cdot )_{\mu }\) defined by (2.3) is also an inner product in X. Since
the norm \(\Vert \cdot \Vert _{\mu }\) induced by \((\cdot ,\cdot )_{\mu }\) is equivalent to the norm \(\Vert \cdot \Vert \). Write
then \(\ell ^{2}\), \(\ell ^{2}_{\mu }\), and \(l^{2}\) are all Hilbert spaces. Set
For any two elements \(z^{(j)}=(u^{(j)},v^{(j)},\varphi ^{(j)})^{T}\in E_{\mu }\), \(j=1,2\), the inner product and norm of \(E_{\mu }\) are defined as
where \(\overline{u}_{m}^{(2)}\) stands for the conjugate of \(u_{m}^{(2)}\).
For convenience, we shall express Eqs. (1.5)–(1.7) as an abstract Cauchy problem of first-order ODE with respect to time t in \(E_{\mu }\). To this end, we put \(\psi =(\psi _{m})_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(u=(u_{m})_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(\psi u=(\psi _{m}u_{m})_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(A|\psi |^2=\left( (A|\psi |^2)_m\right) _{m\in \mathbb {Z}}\), \(f(t)=(f_{m}(t))_{m\in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(g(t)=(g_{m}(t))_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(\psi _{\tau }=(\psi _{m,\tau })_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(u_{\tau }=(u_{m,\tau })_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\), \(u_{1\tau }=(u_{1m,\tau })_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\). Then Eqs. (1.5)–(1.7) can be written as
We further set
\(z=(\psi ,u,\varphi )^T\), \(F(z,t) =(-i\psi u-ig(t),0,f(t)+A |\psi |^2)^T\) and
where I is the identity operator. Then Eqs. (2.6)–(2.8) can be written as
We next introduce the space which the external forces functions belong to. Let \({\mathcal {C}}_{b}(\mathbf{\mathbb {R}},X)\) be the set of continuous and bounded functions from \(\mathbf{\mathbb {R}}\) into X, then for each function \(f(t)\in {\mathcal {C}}_{b}(\mathbf{\mathbb {R}},X)\), we have \(\sup _{t\in \mathbf{\mathbb {R}}}\sum _{m\in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}|f_{m}(t)|^{2}<+\infty \). Write
Note that we use \(\mathbb {N}\) to denote the set of positive integers throughout this paper.
In this paper, we need the following assumptions on the parameters.
Assumption (H) Assume the parameters \(h, \mu \), and \(\alpha \) satisfying
We next recall some known results of solutions to Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12).
Lemma 2.1
([25]) Let assumption (H) hold and \(g(t)=(g_{m}(t))_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\in {\mathcal {C}}_{b}(\mathbf{\mathbb {R}},\ell ^{2})\), \(f(t)=(f_{m}(t))_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\in {\mathcal {C}}_{b}(\mathbf{\mathbb {R}},l^{2})\). Then for any initial value \(z_{\tau }=(\psi _{\tau },u_{\tau },\varphi _{\tau })^{T}\in E_{\mu }\), there exists a unique solution \(z(t)=(\psi (t),u(t),\varphi (t))^{T}\in E_{\mu }\) of Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12) such that \(z(t)\in {\mathcal {C}}([\tau , +\infty ),E_{\mu })\cap {\mathcal {C}}^{1}((\tau , +\infty ),E_{\mu })\). Moreover, the mapping
generates a continuous process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\) on \(E_{\mu }\), where \(\varphi _\tau =u_{1\tau }+\lambda u_\tau \).
Lemma 2.2
([25]) Let the conditions of Lemma 2.1 hold. Then the solution \(z(t)=(\psi (t),u(t),\varphi (t))^{T}=U(t,t-s)z_{t-s}\in E_{\mu }\) with initial value \(z_{t-s}=(\psi _{t-s},u_{t-s},\varphi _{t-s})^{T}\in E_{\mu }\) of Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12) satisfies
where \(C_{0}, \vartheta \) and \(r_{0}\) are positive constants independent of t and s.
Lemma 2.3
([25]) Let the conditions of Lemma 2.1 hold. Then the process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\) corresponding to Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12) is uniformly pullback bounded dissipative in the sense that for any bounded set \({\mathcal {B}}\) of \(E_{\mu }\), there exists a time \(s({\mathcal {B}})\) yielding
where \({\mathcal {B}}_0={\mathcal {B}}(0,R_{0})\subset E_{\mu }\) is a closed ball centered at 0 with radius \(\displaystyle R_{0}=\frac{r_{0}}{\sqrt{\vartheta }}\).
Lemma 2.3 shows that there exists a time \(s_{0}= s_{0}({\mathcal {B}}_0)\) such that
Lemma 2.4
([25]) Let assumption (H) hold and \(g(t)=(g_{m}(t))_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\in {\mathcal {H}}\) with \(X=\ell ^{2}\) and \(f(t)=(f_{m}(t))_{m \in \mathbf{\mathbb {Z}}}\in {\mathcal {H}}\) with \(X=l^{2}\), respectively. Then for any \(\varepsilon >0\), there exist \(T(\varepsilon ,t,{\mathcal {B}}_0)>0\) and \(M(\varepsilon ,t,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\in {\mathbb {N}}\), such that when \(s\geqslant T(\varepsilon ,t,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\) the solution \(z(t)=U(t,t-s)z_{t-s}\in E_{\mu }\) with initial value \(z_{t-s}\in {\mathcal {B}}_0\) of Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12) satisfies
hereinafter \(|z_{m}|^{2}_{E_{\mu }}=|\psi _m|^2+(Bu)^2_m+\mu u_m^2+\varphi _m^2\).
Definition 2.1
A function \(z(s)\in \mathcal {C}({\mathbb {R}},E_\mu )\) is said to be a complete trajectory of the process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\) provided \(U(t,\tau )z(\tau )=z(t), \forall t\geqslant \tau , \tau \in \mathbb {R}\). The kernel \({\mathcal {K}}\) of the process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\) consists of all bounded complete trajectories of it, and the set \({\mathcal {K}}(s)=\{z(s)\in E_\mu \,\big |\,z(s)\in {\mathcal {K}}\}\) is called the kernel section of the kernel \({\mathcal {K}}\) at time \(s\in \mathbb {R}\).
Lemma 2.5
([25]) Let the conditions of Lemma 2.4 hold. Then the process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\) corresponding to Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12) possesses a family of compact kernel sections \(\{\mathcal {K}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\subset E_{\mu }\).
We end this section with the definition of fractal dimension of the kernel sections \(\{\mathcal {K}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\).
Definition 2.2
For each \(\tau \in \mathbb {R}\), the fractal dimension \(\mathrm{dim}_F \mathcal {K}(\tau )\) of \(\mathcal {K}(\tau )\) is defined by
where \({\mathcal {N}} (\mathcal {K}(\tau ), \varepsilon )\) is the minimal number of closed sets of the diameter \(2\varepsilon \) which cover the set \(\mathcal {K}(\tau )\).
3 Finite Fractal Dimension of the Kernel Sections
In this section, we will use the criteria presented in [24] to estimate the upper bound of fractal dimension of the kernel sections \(\{\mathcal {K}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\) obtained by [25].
Write
then \(E_{\mu }^{(N)}\) is a \(4(2N+1)\)-dimensional space. Define a bounded projection \(P_{N}: E_{\mu }\mapsto E_{\mu }^{(N)}\) by
Theorem 3.1
Let the conditions of Lemma 2.4 hold and \(\{\mathcal {K}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\) be the kernel sections of the process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\). Then for each \(\tau \in \mathbb {R}\), the fractal dimension of \(\mathcal {K}(\tau )\) satisfies
where \(N^*,\ T^*,\ \eta ,\ C_1\), and \(C_2\) are constants depending on \(\alpha ,\gamma ,\mu \), and h, respectively.
Proof
According to [24, Theorem 4.1] or [41, Theorem 2.1], we prove Theorem 3.1 by two steps.
Step 1 According to [25, Theorem 3.1], there exists a uniform finite covering of closed subsets with diameter 2 of \({\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\) for each \(\tau \in {\mathbb {R}}\). We next prove that \(U(t,\tau )\) is Lipschitz on \({\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\). In fact, for each \(\tau \in {\mathbb {R}}\), let
be two solutions of Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12) with initial data \(z^{(1)}_{\tau },z^{(2)}_{\tau }\in {\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\subset {\mathcal {B}}_{0}\), respectively. Then \(z^{(1)}(t),z^{(2)}(t) \in {\mathcal {K}}(t)\subset {\mathcal {B}}_{0}\) for \(t-\tau \geqslant s_{0}\). Set
Taking the real part of the inner product of (3.3) with \(z_{d}\) in \(E_{\mu }\) yields
Since \(\Theta : E_{\mu }\mapsto E_{\mu }\) is a bounded linear operator, \(F: E_{\mu }\times \mathbf{\mathbb {R}}\mapsto E_{\mu }\) is a locally Lipschitz continuous operator (see [25, Lemma 2.2]) and \({\mathcal {B}}_0\) is a bounded set in \(E_{\mu }\), we see that there exist two positive constants \(C_1\) and \(C_{2}=C_{2}({\mathcal {B}}_0)\) such that
Applying Gronwall inequality to (3.6) gives
which implies that \(U(t,\tau )\) is Lipschitz on \({\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\).
Step 2 Define a function \(\chi (x)\in {\mathcal {C}}^{1}(\mathbf{\mathbb {R}}_+,[0,1])\) such that
Set
where M is a positive integer that will be specified later. By (2.6), we get
Taking the imaginary part of the inner product of (3.8) with \(\xi _{d}\) in \(\ell ^{2}\) yields
According to Lemma 2.4, there exist \(t_{1}>0\) and \(M_{1}(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\in \mathbb {N}\), such that when \(t-\tau \geqslant t_{1}\) and \(M>M_{1}(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\), we obtain
Similar to [25, (52) and (61)], we can get
Then taking (3.9)–(3.12) into account, we have for \(t-\tau \geqslant t_{1}\) and \(M>M_{1}(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\) that
Taking the inner product of (3.14) with \(w_{d}\) in \(\ell ^{2}\) gives
It is clear that \(w_{d}=\dot{v}_{d}+\lambda v_{d}\). Thus (3.15) can be written as
By some computations, we have
Inserting (3.18) and (3.19) into (3.17) yields
Similarly, we have
and
here \(\tilde{m_{1}}\) and \(\tilde{m_{3}}\) locate between \(|m+1|\) and |m|, \(\tilde{m_{2}}\) and \(\tilde{m_{4}}\) locate between \(|m-1|\) and |m|. Inserting (3.22) and (3.23) into (3.21) gives
According to Lemma 2.3, we see that for every \(t-\tau \geqslant s_{0}\),
where
By [25, (64)], we have
Similar to (3.26),
Combining (3.25)–(3.28), we have for any \(t-\tau \geqslant s_{0}\) that
Taking (3.16), (3.20), (3.24), and (3.29) into account, we get
Set \(\displaystyle \delta =\frac{\mu \alpha }{\sqrt{\alpha ^2+4\mu }\left( \sqrt{\alpha ^2+4\mu }+\alpha \right) }\), then \(\displaystyle 4(\lambda -\delta )\left( \frac{\alpha }{2}-\lambda -\delta \right) =\frac{\lambda ^2\alpha ^2}{\mu }\) and thus
Combining (3.13) and (3.32), we get that
Letting \(\beta =\min \left\{ 2\delta -\frac{\lambda }{2},\gamma \right\} \), we obtain by (3.33) that
Since \(g\in {\mathcal {H}}\), for \(\varepsilon >0\)(given in Definition 2.2), there exist \(t_2(\varepsilon )>0\), \(M_2(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0})\in \mathbb {N}\) and \(M_3(\varepsilon ,\tau )\in \mathbb {N}\) with \(M_2(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0})\geqslant M_1(\varepsilon ,\mathcal {B}_0)\) and \(M_3(\varepsilon ,\tau )\geqslant M_1(\varepsilon ,\mathcal {B}_0)\), such that
and for any \(M\geqslant M_3(\varepsilon ,\tau )\),
Choosing \(N=\max \{M_{2}(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0}),M_{3}(\varepsilon ,\tau )\}\), \(t_{3}(\varepsilon ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0})=\max \{t_{1},t_{2}(\varepsilon ),s_{0}\}\), then we conclude from (3.34)–(3.37) that when \(t-\tau \geqslant t_{3}(\varepsilon ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0})\) and \(M\geqslant N\),
where
Applying Gronwall inequality to (3.38) from \( \tau \) to t with \(t-\tau >t_{3}(\varepsilon ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0})\), we get that when \(M>N(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\),
By (3.7), we have
hereinafter \(C_1\) and \(C_2\) come from (3.5). Thus, it follows from (3.39)–(3.40) that for any \(t-\tau \geqslant t_{3}(\varepsilon ,{\mathcal {B}}_{0})\) and \(M>N(\varepsilon ,\tau ,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\),
That is,
Set
then by (3.42) it follows that for \(T^{*}=t_{3}(\varepsilon ,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\),
where
(independent of \(\tau \)), and set \(\displaystyle \theta ^2=\frac{1}{4}\in \Big (0,\frac{1}{2}\Big )\). Then (3.44) gives
and thus
By [24, Theorem 4.1], the fractal dimension of \({\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\) satisfies
The proof is complete. \(\square \)
4 Upper Semicontinuity of the Kernel Sections
In this section, we consider the approximation of the kernel sections \(\{{\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in {\mathbb {R}}}\), by using the kernel sections of the following finite-dimensional truncated ODEs:
with the initial conditions
where the functions \(g_m(t)\) and \(f_m(t)\) with \(|m|\leqslant n\) are exactly chosen as the same as in (1.5) and (1.6), respectively. We set \(\varphi _m=\dot{u}_m+\lambda u_m\,\,(|m|\leqslant n)\), where \(\lambda \) comes from (2.9), then Eqs. (4.1)–(4.2) can be written as
where
and
\(I_n\) is the \((2n+1)\)-order identity matrix and \(\mathbf{0}\) is the \((2n+1)\)-order zero matrix. Write
then we have
where \(B^T_n\) is the transpose matrix of \(B_n\). For any two elements \(\psi ^{(n)}=(\psi _m)_{|m|\leqslant n}\), \(u^{(n)}=(u_m)_{|m|\leqslant n}\in {\mathbb {R}}^{2n+1}\) or \({\mathbb {C}}^{2n+1}\), define
Then
and
are all Hilbert spaces. Consider the truncated space \(E^{(n)}_\mu ={\mathbb {C}}^{2n+1}\times {\mathbb {R}}^{2n+1}_\mu \times {\mathbb {R}}^{2n+1}\) of \(E_\mu \). For any two elements \(z^{(n)}=\big (\psi ^{(n)},u^{(n)},\varphi ^{(n)}\big )^T\), \(p^{(n)}=\big (\xi ^{(n)},\zeta ^{(n)},\eta ^{(n)}\big )^T\in E^{(n)}_\mu \), define
then \(E^{(n)}_\mu \) is a finite-dimensional Hilbert space.
Clearly, if both \(g(t)=(g_m(t))_{m\in {\mathbb {Z}}}\) and \(f(t)=(f_m(t))_{m\in {\mathbb {Z}}}\) belong to \({\mathcal {C}}_{b}({\mathbb {R}},\ell ^2 )\), then also \(g^{(n)}(t)=(g_m(t))_{|m|\leqslant n}\in {\mathcal {C}}_{b}({\mathbb {R}},{\mathbb {C}}^{2n+1})\) and \(f^{(n)}(t)=(f_m(t))_{|m|\leqslant n}\in {\mathcal {C}}_{b}({\mathbb {R}},{\mathbb {R}}^{2n+1})\). Thus, under the assumptions of [25, Theorem 3.1], Eqs. (4.4)–(4.5) are well-posed in \(E^{(n)}_\mu \). Also, from Lemma 4.1 below, we see that the solution \(z^{(n)}(t)\) of Eqs. (4.4)–(4.5) is bounded in finite time, so \(z^{(n)}(t)\) exists globally on \([\tau ,+\infty )\). Hence, for any initial value \(z^{(n)}(\tau )\in E^{(n)}_\mu \), there exists a unique solution \(z^{(n)}(t)\in {\mathcal {C}}([\tau ,+\infty ),E^{(n)}_\mu )\cap {\mathcal {C}}^{1}((\tau ,+\infty ),E^{(n)}_\mu )\), and one can check that the maps of solution operators
generate a continuous process \(\left\{ U^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} _{t\geqslant \tau }\) on \(E^{(n)}_\mu \).
Similar to Lemmas 2.3 and 2.4, we have the following results.
Lemma 4.1
Let the conditions of Lemma 2.3 hold. Then the process \(\left\{ U^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} _{t\geqslant \tau }\) corresponding to Eqs. (4.4)–(4.5) is uniformly pullback bounded dissipative in the sense that for any bounded set \({\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}\) of \(E^{(n)}_\mu \), there exists a time \(s({\mathcal {B}}^{(n)})> 0\) yielding
where \({\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}_0={\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}(0,R_0)\subset E^{(n)}_\mu \) is a bounded ball centered at 0 with radius \(R_0=\frac{r_0}{\sqrt{\vartheta }}\) being independent of n. Moreover, the process \(\left\{ U^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} _{t\geqslant \tau }\) possesses a nonempty bounded kernel \({\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}\), and \({\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}(\tau )\subseteq {\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}_{0}\subset E^{(n)}_\mu \) for any \(\tau \in {\mathbb {R}}\).
Lemma 4.2
Let the conditions of Lemma 2.4 hold. Then for every \(\varepsilon >0\), there exist \(T(\varepsilon ,t,{\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}_0)>0\) and \(M(\varepsilon ,t,{\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}_0)\in {\mathbb {N}}\) such that the solution \(U^{(n)}(t,t-s)z^{(n)}_{t-s}\) corresponding to the initial value \(z^{(n)}_{t-s}\) of Eqs. (4.4)–(4.5) satisfies
We next prove that the kernel sections \(\{{\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\) of the process \(\left\{ U^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} _{t\geqslant \tau }\) converge to the kernel sections \(\{\mathcal {K}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\) of the process \(\{U(t,\tau )\}_{t\geqslant \tau }\). We use \(z^{(n)}=\big (z^{(n)}_m\big )_{m\in {\mathbb {Z}}}\in E_\mu \) to denote the extension of \(z^{(n)}=\big (z^{(n)}_m\big )_{|m|\leqslant n}\in E^{(n)}_\mu \) such that \(z^{(n)}_m=0\) for \(|m|>n\). In this sense, we have
Clearly, we can deduce from Lemma 2.4 and (4.6) that for any \(\varepsilon >0\), there holds
Lemma 4.3
Let the conditions of Lemma 2.4 hold and \(z^{(n)}(\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}(\tau )\) for \(\tau \in {\mathbb {R}}\), then there is a subsequence \(\left\{ z^{(n_k)}(\tau )\right\} \) of \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(\tau )\right\} \) and \(z(\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\) such that
Proof
Given \(\tau \in {\mathbb {R}}\), denote \({\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }=[\tau ,+\infty )\) and let
be the solution of Eqs. (4.4)–(4.5) corresponding to the initial value \(z^{(n)}(\tau )\). Since \(z^{(n)}(\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}(\tau )\), we see that \(z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}\) for all \(t\geqslant \tau \). By Lemma 4.2 and (4.6), \(z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}\subseteq {\mathcal {B}}^{(n)}_{0}\subset E^{(n)}_\mu \) for all \(t\geqslant \tau \). Thus,
By equation (4.4),
It follows from (2.4) and (4.9) that
where
Similarly,
where
It then follows from (4.10), (4.11), and (4.12) that there exists a constant \(C_6=C_6(C_4,C_5)\) such that
Let \(I_j=[-j,j]\bigcap {\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\) for \(j\in {\mathbb {N}}\) be a sequence of compact interval of \({\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\). Considering \(s, t\in I_j\), we have
which gives the equicontinuity of \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} ^{\infty }_{n=1}\) in \(\mathcal {C}(I_j,E^{(n)}_\mu )\). Equation (4.9) implies that, for fixed t, \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(t)\right\} ^{\infty }_{n=1}\) is bounded in \(E_\mu \). By the fact that \(E_\mu \) is a Hilbert space, there exist a subsequence (still denoted by \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} ^{\infty }_{n=1}\)) of \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} ^{\infty }_{n=1}\) and \(z_t(\tau )=(z_{t,m}(\tau ))_{m\in {\mathbb {Z}}}\in E_\mu \) such that
It follows from (4.9) and (4.15) that
We next prove that the weak convergence in (4.15) is strong. In fact, for any \(\varepsilon >0\) and any fixed \(t\geqslant \tau \), by (4.7) and Lemma 2.4, there exists an \(M(\varepsilon ,t,{\mathcal {B}}_0)\in {\mathbb {N}}\) such that
At the same time, by (4.15),
from which we infer that there exists an \(M(\varepsilon )>0\) such that
(4.17) and (4.18) imply that for any fixed \(t\geqslant \tau \),
Using Arzela-Ascoli’s theorem and the technique of diagonal subsequence, there exist a subsequence \(\left\{ z^{(n_k)}(t,\tau )\right\} \) of \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} \) and
such that
We next prove that \(\psi (t,\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}(t)\) for any \(t\geqslant \tau \). To this end, we establish that \(z(t,\tau )\) with \(t\in {\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\) is a bounded solution of Eqs. (2.11)–(2.12). For brevity, we denote \(\left\{ z^{(n_k)}(t,\tau )\right\} \) by \(\left\{ z^{(n)}(t,\tau )\right\} \). It then follows from (4.6), (4.13), and (4.15) that
Since
is a solution of Eqs. (4.4)–(4.5) with initial data \(z^{(n)}(\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}^{(n)}(\tau )\), we can obtain for any \(|m|\leqslant n\) and any \(t\in I_j\) that
Thus, for any \(\theta (t)\in {\mathcal {C}}^{\infty }_{0}(I_j)\), we get for \(|m|\leqslant n\) that
From (4.20), we see that
Obviously, for any \(n\in {\mathbb {N}}\) and any \(x\in {\mathbb {R}}^{2n+1}_{x}\), there holds
Thus, we get from (4.26) that
and
Letting \(n\rightarrow +\infty \) and \(j\rightarrow +\infty \) in (4.22) and (4.23), we obtain, by using (4.21), (4.24), (4.25), and (4.28)–(4.29), for all \(t\in I_j\) and \(m\in {\mathbb {Z}}\) that
Since \(I_j\) is arbitrary, (4.32) holds for all \(t\in {\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\), which means that \(z(t,\tau )\) with \(t\in {\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\) is a solution of (2.11)–(2.12). From (4.16), it follows that \(z(t,\tau )\) is bounded for \(t\in {\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\). Thus, \(z(t,\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}(t)\) for all \(t\in {\mathbb {R}}_{\tau }\). Now (4.19) implies \(z^{(n)}(\tau ,\tau )\longrightarrow z_\tau (\tau )=z(\tau ,\tau )\in {\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\) strongly in \(E_{\mu }\) as \(n\rightarrow +\infty \). The proof is complete. \(\square \)
Using the argument of contradiction and Lemma 4.3, we can obtain the following upper semicontinuity of the kernel sections \(\{{\mathcal {K}}(\tau )\}_{\tau \in \mathbb {R}}\).
Theorem 4.1
Let the conditions of Lemma 2.4 hold. Then
