The Global Well-posedness of the Euler-Poisson System for Ions in 2D

TL;DR
The paper proves global well-posedness and scattering for the 2D Euler-Poisson system describing ions around the equilibrium, by combining dispersive decay with a space-time resonance framework. The authors reformulate the problem via a complex profile U=\psi+i q(D)\rho, identify primary and secondary resonances, and perform paralinearization to isolate quadratic and higher-order interactions. They develop a robust energy/dispersion bootstrap that treats high/low frequencies, time resonances near the critical frequency $\gamma_0$, and various modulation regimes, obtaining uniform-in-time bounds and scattering to a free profile. The results advance the understanding of low-frequency time-resonance phenomena in dispersive PDEs and demonstrate the adaptability of gravity-capillary/Euler-Maxwell techniques to plasma-like models, with potential impact on stability analyses for multi-fluid systems.
Abstract
This paper aims to establish the global well-posedness of the Euler-Poisson system for ions in 2D. The difficulties arising from time resonance at low frequencies and slow decay will be overcome by applying the method developed for the gravity-capillary water waves and Euler-Maxwell systems.
