Second-Order Evolution Equations Associated with Convex Hamiltonians(1)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Extract
Many problems in mathematical physics can be formulated as differential equations of second order in time:
with V a convex functional. This is the Euler equation for the Lagrangian
which is convex with respect to x, and concave with respect to x.
