Evolutionary system, global attractor, trajectory attractor and applications to the nonautonomous reaction-diffusion systems (1502.05074v4)

Abstract: In [Adv. Math., 267(2014), 277-306], Cheskidov and Lu develop a new framework of the evolutionary system that deals directly with the notion of a uniform global attractor due to Haraux, and by which a trajectory attractor is able to be defined for the original system under consideration. The notion of a trajectory attractor was previously established for a system without uniqueness by considering a family of auxiliary systems including the original one. In this paper, we further prove the existence of a notion of a strongly compact strong trajectory attractor if the system is asymptotically compact. As a consequence, we obtain the strong equicontinuity of all complete trajectories on global attractor and the finite strong uniform tracking property. Then we apply the theory to a general nonautonomous reaction-diffusion systems. In particular, we obtain the structure of uniform global attractors without any additional condition on nonlinearity other than those guarantee the existence of a uniform absorbing set. Finally, we construct some interesting examples of such nonlinearities. It is not known whether they can be handled by previous frameworks.
