Well-Posedness and Long-Time Dynamics of a Water-Waves Model with Time-Varying Boundary Delay

G. Bautista, R. de A. Capistrano--Filho, B. Chentouf, O. Sierra Fonseca

TL;DR

The paper addresses well-posedness and long-time dynamics of a fifth-order Boussinesq-type water-waves model with a time-varying boundary delay. It combines Kato's variable-norm framework and a transposition-based fixed-point approach to prove local well-posedness for small initial data, and constructs a Lyapunov functional to establish exponential decay for the linearized delayed system. Under explicit param and delay-structure conditions, it also derives an optimal decay rate via a careful optimization of the Lyapunov constants. The results extend previous work by incorporating additional high-order nonlinearities and a delay at the boundary, with implications for stabilization of dispersive systems with time-varying delays. The work highlights both the potential for rapid stabilization in delayed dispersive models and the challenges in extending these results to global-in-time nonlinear dynamics.

Abstract

A higher-order nonlinear Boussinesq system with a time-dependent boundary delay is considered. Sufficient conditions are presented to ensure the well-posedness of the problem by utilizing Kato's variable norm technique and the Fixed-Point Theorem. More significantly, the energy decay for the linearized problem is demonstrated using the energy method.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $T>0$ and the parameters $a, c, a_1, c_1$ verify conditions_para. Then, there exists $\theta=\theta(T)>0$ such that, for every $\left(\eta_0, \omega_0;z_0\right) \in {X}_3\times L^2(0,1)$ satisfying the system eq:KdV-KdV admits a unique solution $(\eta, \omega) \in C\left([0, T] ; X_3 \right)$. Moreover for some positive constant $C=C(T)$.
