On the Cauchy problem for nonlinear dissipative systems

Abstract

The large-time asymptotic behavior of solutions of the Cauchy problem for a system of nonlinear evolutionary equations with dissipation is studied. The approach used in the case of small initial data is based on the construction of solutions by the method of contracting mappings. In the case of large initial data, we will obtain the large-time asymptotics of solutions with a certain symmmetry of a nonlinear term taken into account. In the critical case, it is proved that if the initial data has a nonzero total mass, then the principal term of the large-time asymptotics of a solution is given by the self-similar solution uniquely determined by the total mass of the initial data.
