We investigate optimal decay rates for higher–order spatial derivatives of strong solutions to the 3D Cauchy problem of the compressible viscous quantum magnetohydrodynamic model in the H5 × H4 × H4 framework, and the main novelty of this work is three–fold: First, we show that fourth order spatial derivative of the solution converges to zero at the
1 Introduction
In this paper, we consider optimal decay rates for higher–order spatial derivatives of strong solutions to the following 3D compressible viscous quantum magnetohydrodynamic (vQMHD) model:
where t ≥ 0 is time and x ∈ ℝ3 is the spatial coordinate, and the symbol ⊗ is the Kronecker tensor product. The unknown functions ρ = ρ(x, t) is the density, u = (u1, u2, u3)(x, t) denotes the velocity, and B = (B1, B2, B3)(x, t) represents the magnetic field. P = P(ρ) = aργ (a > 0, γ ≥ 1) stands for the pressure. The constant viscosity coefficients μ and λ satisfy the physical conditions: μ > 0,
The system (1.1) is supplemented with the following initial data
Moreover, we assume that when the space variable goes to infinity, the initial perturbation satisfies
1.1 History of the problem
The quantum fluid model can provide many pieces of information for the particles in the semiconductor simulation, and it could be used to describe quantum semiconductors [6], weakly interacting Bose gases [8], and quantum trajectories of Bohmian mechanics [34]. The quantum magnetohydrodynamic (QMHD) model plays an important role in modeling and simulating electron transport, which was extended by Hass [10] later from a Wigner–Maxwell system. Moreover, this model could be used to describe global properties of quantum plasmas. It is worth mentioning that system (1.1) will reduce to the compressible MHD equations without quantum effects. There is a vast literature addressing the decay and other asymptotic behaviors of compressible fluid equations, we refer to previous studies [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 29, 30, 31, 32] and references therein.
In what follows, we only review some results closely related for simplicity. The study for decay rates of solutions to the QMHD model has attracted much attention of mathematicians. Pu and Guo [25] established the optimal decay rates of classical solutions near constant states via the spectral method in ℝ3. In [27], Pu and Xu showed that the classical solution of the vQMHD model has the following decay rate:
Pu–Xu [28] employed the pure energy method developed by Guo–Wang [9] to obtain the optimal decay rates of higher-order spatial derivatives of solutions to the full hydrodynamic equations with quantum effects under the condition that the initial perturbation belongs to
For more results about the large time behavior of solutions to the quantum fluid model, readers can refer to [26, 36] and references therein.
It is clear that decay rate of k(k = 0, 1, 2, 3) order spatial derivative of solution in (1.4) is optimal in the sense that it coincides with decay rate of solution to the heat equation. However, decay rate in (1.4) implies that fourth order spatial derivative of solution converges to zero at
1.2 Notation
In this paper, we use Hk(ℝ3) to denote the usual Sobolev spaces with norm ‖ · ‖Hk. Generally, we use Lp, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞ to denote the usual Lp (ℝ3) spaces with norm ‖ · ‖Lp. The notation a ≲ b means that a ≤ Cb, where the universal constant C > 0 may be from line to line but independent of time t. Similarly, the notation a ≳ b means that a ≥ Cb for a universal positive constant which is independent of time t. We define

1.3 Main results
Before stating our main results, let us recall the following results obtained in previous studies [28, 35], which will be used in this paper frequently.
Theorem 1.1
(see [28, 35]) Suppose that the initial data (ρ0 − 1, u0, B0) ∈ H5 × H4 × H4. There exists a small constant δ > 0 such that if
then the solution (ρ, u, B) of (1.1)–(1.3) satisfy for all T ≥ 0
Moreover, provided that ‖;(ρ0 − 1, u0, B0)‖L1 is finite additionally, then the solution (ρ, u, B) satisfy
with k = 0, 1, 2, 3. Here, the positive constant C is independent of time.
Our main purpose in this paper is to establish the upper optimal decay rates for fourth order spatial derivative of the solution and fifth order spatial derivatives of the density ρ which are the same as those of the heat equation. Our main results are stated in the following theorems:
Theorem 1.2
Under all the assumptions in Theorem 1.1, the global solution (ρ, u, B) has the following time decay rate for all t ≥ T
Here T is a positive large time.
Theorem 1.3
Under all the assumptions in Theorem 1.1, the global solution (ρ, u, B) has the following time decay rate for all t ≥ T
Here T is a positive large time.
Remark 1.4
It is interesting to make a comparison between Theorem 1.2 and Theorem 1.1, where the authors derived decay rate of fourth order spatial derivative of solution is the same as one of third order spatial derivative. We show that fourth order spatial derivative of the solution converges to zero at the
Remark 1.5
Compared to the main results (1.7) in [28, 35], decay rate in (1.9) is totally new and gives optimal decay rate of fifth order spatial derivative of density ϱ, which is same as that of the heat equation. In addition, it also gives optimal decay rates of the high-frequency part of fourth order spatial derivatives of the velocity u and magnetic B, which are faster than ones of themselves.
Now, let’s sketch the strategy of proving Theorem 1.2–Theorem 1.3 and explain some main difficulties and techniques involved in the process. Roughly speaking, our methods mainly involve low–frequency and high–frequency decomposition technique and delicate energy estimates. Our strategy can be outlined as follows.
For the proof of Theorem 1.2, we hope to establish the optimal decay rate for fourth order spatial derivatives of solution for the compressible viscous quantum magnetohydrodynamic equations (1.1). For the convenience of calculation, we linearize the system (1.1) around the equilibrium state, and then rewrite the linearized system in terms of the variables ϱ, u, B, which is stated in (2.1). We only need to make full use of the benefit of low-frequency and high-frequency decomposition to deal with high-frequency part of ∇4(ϱ, u, B). The proof mainly involves the following three steps. First, we derive high–frequency L2 energy estimate of fourth order spatial derivative of the solution to the compressible vQMHD model:
Second, by noticing that the above energy inequality only involves dissipative estimates of uh and Bh. In order to explore the dissipative estimate of ϱh, the main idea here is to employ the new interactive energy functional to get
Last, we choose two sufficiently large positive constants D0 and T1, and define the temporal energy functional
for t ≥ 0, where it is mentioned that ℰ(t) is equivalent to
which together with Gronwall’s argument and low-frequency decay rate gives rise to (1.8), and thus completes the proof of Theorem 1.2.
For the proof of Theorem 1.3, we hope to establish the fifth order spatial derivatives of the density ρ. Our main idea is to find the optimal decay rate at low–frequency and high–frequency of the fifth order spatial derivative of density, and then use the properties of high-frequency and low-frequency decomposition to obtain the optimal decay rates of the fifth order spatial derivative of density. For the low-frequency part ‖∇5 ϱl‖L2, by using the equation (2.1)1, Theorem 1.2, Duhamel’s principle, Plancherel theorem, Hölder’s inequality and Hausdorff–Young’s inequality, we have
After some detailed calculations, we can get
For the high-frequency part ‖∇5 ϱl‖L2, it is easy to find that the calculation in this part is similar to that of section 2, we only need to replace the decay rate of fourth order space derivative from
Combining the estimates (1.10) and (1.11), we conclude the proof of Theorem 1.3.
2 Proof of Theorem 1.2
In this section, we will devote ourselves to proving Theorem 1.2. We suppose that all the conditions of Theorem 1.1 are in force in this and next section. Without loss of generality, we assume that P′(1) = 1. Let us setting ϱ = ρ − 1, we can rewrite the system (1.1) in the perturbation form as
Here the nonlinear source terms G1, G2 and G3 are given by
The initial data are given as
First, we recall the L2 time decay rates on the linearized system for the first two equations (2.1).
Lemma 2.1
(see [27]) Let s ≥ 0 be an integer. Assume that (ϱ, u) is the solution of the linearized system for the first two equations in (2.1) with initial data ϱ ∈ Hs+1 ∩ L1, u0 ∈ Hs ∩ L1. Then, for any t ≥ 0, it holds that
for 0 ≤ k ≤ s.
Next, we recall the L2 time decay rate on the linearized system for the third equation in (2.1).
Lemma 2.2
(see [33]) Let s ≥ 0 be an integer. Assume that B is the solution of the linearized system for the third equation in (2.1) with initial data B0 ∈ Hs ∩ L1. Then, for any t ≥ 0, it holds that
for 0 ≤ k ≤ s.
Finally, we deduce the L2 time decay rate on the nonlinear system (2.1).
Lemma 2.3
Assume that the assumptions of Theorem 1.1 are in force, the solution (ϱ, u, B) of the nonlinear system (2.1) satisfies the following decay estimate:
Proof
By virtue of the equation (2.1), Lemma 2.1, Lemma 2.2, Duhamel’s principle, Plancherel theorem, Hölder’s inequality and Hausdorff–Young’s inequality, we have
Next, we shall estimate the second term and the third term on the right-hand side of (2.7). To begin with, by virtue of Lemma 4.2, we can bound the term by
and
Proof of Theorem 1.2
The first step is to establish the energy estimate for the fourth order spatial derivative of solution. Taking
and using integration by parts, we can obtain
The right-hand side of the above equation can be estimated as follows. Firstly, we have
For term I1, by using Hölder’s inequality, Lemma 4.2, Lemma 4.3, Lemma 4.1, Young’s inequality and Sobolev interpolation theorem, we arrive at
For term I2, we can rewrite it as follows
By routine checking, one may show that
The integration by part yields directly
and hence, we show that
Similar to the estimate (2.14), we have
and
and hence, it follows that
For the term I2,2, we have
For the term I2,3, we get
Summing up estimates (2.19)–(2.21), we arrive at
Applying equation (2.1), it holds that
The first term on the right-hand side of the above equation can be estimated as follows
Similarly, using the integration by parts, the terms I4 ∼ I8 can be estimated as follows
For term I6, we can rewrite it as follows
Similar to the proof of (2.19)–(2.21), for I6,1, I6,2 and I6,3, it holds that
Using the properties of low-frequency decomposition, it holds that
Putting the above estimates into (2.27) yields directly
For the terms I7, I8, we have
Summing up (2.23)–(2.26), (2.28)–(2.30), we obtain
and we have
For the term 〈
For the term I9, by using the properties of low-frequency and high-frequency decomposition, we get
For the term I9,1, by using integration by parts, we obtain
For the term I9,2, we have
For the term I9,3, we get
Putting estimates (2.35)–(2.37) into (2.34), it arrives at
Similarly, for the term I10, we can rewrite it as follows
Similar to the proof of (2.35), we have
and
It follows from the estimates (2.40)–(2.42) and (2.39) that
Combining with (2.12), (2.22), (2.31)–(2.32), (2.38) and (2.43), it arrives at
In order to close the estimate, we will establish the dissipation estimate for ∇4 ϱh. Applying the operator 𝔉−1(1 − ϕ(ξ )) to ∇4(2.1)2, multiplying the resulting equality by ∇5 ϱh, integrating over ℝ3, we can deduce that
Using the Young inequality, we can obtain
Similarly, we have
For 〈∇4div(ϱu)h, ∇5 ϱh〉, we obtain
We notice that
The right-hand side of the above equation can be estimated as follows:
Similar to the proof of (2.38), we have
For J3, we get
For J4, we can rewrite it as follows
For J4,1, we obtain
For J4,2, we get
For J4,3, we get
The combination of (2.53)–(2.56) give rises to
and
It follows from the estimates (2.50)–(2.52) and (2.57)–(2.59) that
which together with (2.46)–(2.48) implies immediately
Last, we will close the estimate to prove the decay rate (1.8). Choosing sufficient large time T1 and positive constant D0, we define the temporary energy functional
for t ≥ 0, where it is clear that ℰ(t) is equivalent to
Combining the estimates (2.44) with (2.61) and using Lemma 2.3, for t ≥ T1, one may deduce that
where we have used the fact that T1 is large enough. On the other hand, it is easy to see that
Therefore, (1.8) follows from (2.63), (2.64), Lemma 2.3 and Gronwall's argument immediately.
3 Proof of Theorem 1.3
This section is concerned with the optimal convergence rate of the solution, which is stated on Theorem 1.3. First, we will derive optimal convergence rate on ‖∇5 ϱl‖L2.
Step 1. Low–frequency L2 energy estimate. By virtue of the equation (2.1)1, Theorem 1.2, Duhamel’s principle, Plancherel theorem, Hölder’s inequality and Hausdorff–Young’s inequality, we have
For ‖G(τ)‖L1, we can see the proof of (2.8). On the other hand, we can use (1.8) to bound the third term on the right-hand side of (3.1) as follows
Substituting (3.2) into (3.1), it arrives at
Step 2. High–frequency L2 energy estimate. In this part, we will make full use of (1.8) to achieve this goal. It is not difficult to find that the following calculations are consistent with the second section except replacing the L2 decay rate
Finally, we conclude that
4 Analytic tools
Now, we state some auxiliary lemmas, which will be frequently used in this paper.
Lemma 4.1
(Gagliardo-Nirenberg’s inequality) Given 2 ≤ p ≤ + ∞ and 0 ≤ k, m ≤ ℓ, then for any f ∈ Hℓ(ℝ3), we have
where α ∈ [0, 1] satisfies
Proof
This is the special case of [23].
Lemma 4.2
Let k ≥ 1 be an integer, then it holds that
where p, p2, p3 ∈ (1, +∞) and
Lemma 4.3
If f ∈ Lr (ℝ3) for any 2 ≤ r ≤ ∞, then we have
Proof
For 2 ≤ r ≤ ∞, by Young inequality’s for convolutions, for the low frequency, it holds
and hence
Lemma 4.4
Let r1, r2 > 0, then it holds that
for any arbitrarily small ε > 0.
