Polynomial Growth of high Sobolev Norms of solutions to the Zakharov-Kuznetsov Equation (1912.03148v2)

Abstract: We consider the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation (ZK) in space dimension 2. Solutions u with initial data u_0 $\in$ H s are known to be global if s $\ge$ 1. We prove that for any integer s $\ge$ 2, u(t) H s grows at most polynomially in t for large times t. This result is related to wave turbulence and how a solution of (ZK) can move energy to high frequencies. It is inspired by analoguous results by Staffilani on the non linear Schr{\"o}dinger Korteweg-de-Vries equation. The main ingredients are adequate bilinear estimates in the context of Bourgain's spaces.
