1. Introduction

In the study of dynamic behavior for a long time in infinite dimensional dynamical system, the exponential attractors and inertial manifolds play a very important role. In 1994, Foias [1] puts forward the concept of exponential attractor, it is a positive invariant compact set which has finite fractal dimension and attracts solution orbits at an exponential rate. Inertial manifold is finite dimensional invariant smooth manifolds that contain the global attractor and attract all solution orbits at an exponential rate, their corresponding inertial manifold forms are powerful tools which could study the property of finite dynamical system about the dissipative evolution equation. Under the restriction of inertial manifold, a infinite dimension dynamical system could be transformed to finite dimension, therefore, the inertial manifolds become an important bridge which can contact finite dimensional dynamical system and infinite dimensional dynamical system, many scholars have done a great deal of research, we could refer to ( [2] - [8] ).

Guigui Xu, Libo Wang and Guoguang Lin [9] studied global attractor and inertial manifold for the strongly damped wave equations

( u t t α Δ u + β Δ 2 u γ Δ u t + g ( u ) = f ( x , t ) , ( x , t ) Ω × R + , u ( x , 0 ) = u 0 ( x ) , u t ( x , 0 ) = u 1 ( x ) , x Ω , u | Ω = 0 , Δ u | Ω = 0 , ( x , t ) Ω × R + .

The assumption of g ( u ) satisfies the following conditions:

(H1) l i m | s | inf G ( s ) s 2 0, s R , G ( s ) = 0 s g ( r ) d r ;

(H2) There is a positive constant C 1 , such that l i m | s | inf s g ( s ) C 1 G ( s ) s 2 0, s R .

Under these reasonable assumptions, according to Hadamard’s graph transformation method, the existence of the inertial manifolds for the equation is obtained.

Zhijian Yang and Zhiming Liu [10] studied the existence of exponential attractor for the Kirchhoff equations with strong nonlinear strongly dissipation and supercritical nonlinearity

u t t σ ( u 2 ) Δ u t ϕ ( u 2 ) Δ u + f ( u ) = h ( x ) .

The main result was that the nonlinearity f ( u ) is of supercritical growth and they established an exponential attractor in natural energy space by using a new method based on the weak quasi-stability estimates.

Ruijin Lou, Penghui Lv, Guoguang Lin [11] studied the exponential attractor and inertial manifold of a higher-order kirchhoff equations

u t t + M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m u + β ( Δ ) 2 m u t + g ( u ) = f ( x ) ,

u ( x , t ) = 0 , i u v i = 0 , i = 1 , 2 , , 2 m 1 , x Ω ,

u ( x , 0 ) = u 0 ( x ) , u t ( x , 0 ) = u 1 ( x ) , x Ω , t > 0.

where Ω is finite region of R n , Ω is smooth boundary, u 0 ( x ) and u 1 ( x ) is initial value, ( Δ ) m u t is strongly damped term, ϕ is stress term, g ( u ) is nonlinear source term.

On the basis of reference [11], the stress term D m u 2 is extended to D m u p p , this paper studied the long-time dynamic behavior of a class of generalized Kirchhoff equation. Firstly, the existence of the exponential attractor of this equation is proved. Furthermore, the existence of a family of inertial manifold is proved by using Hadamard’s graph transformation method, more relevant research can be referred to ( [12] - [17] ).

In this paper, we study the existence of exponential attractors and a family of the inertial manifolds for a class of generalized Kirchhoff-type equation with damping term:

u t t + M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m u + β ( Δ ) 2 m u t + g ( u ) = f ( x ) , (1.1)

u ( x , t ) = 0 , i u v i = 0 , i = 1 , 2 , , 2 m 1 , x Ω , (1.2)

u ( x , 0 ) = u 0 ( x ) , u t ( x , 0 ) = u 1 ( x ) , x Ω , t > 0. (1.3)

where m > 1 , p 2 , Ω R n ( n 1 ) is a bounded domain with a smooth boundary Ω , M ( s ) C 2 ( [ 0, + ) ; R + ) is a real function, β ( Δ ) 2 m u t ( β > 0 ) denotes strong damping term, g ( u ) is nonlinear source term, f ( x ) denotes the external force term. The assumption of M ( s ) and g ( u ) as follow:

(A1) g ( u ) C ( R )

(A2) M ( s ) C 2 ( [ 0 , + ) , R + ) , 1 μ 0 < M ( s ) < μ 1 , μ = { μ 0 , d d t 2 m u 2 0 , μ 1 , d d t 2 m u 2 < 0.

where μ , μ 0 , μ 1 are constant, λ 1 is the first eigenvalue of Δ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions on Ω .

For convenience, define the following spaces and notations H = L 2 ( Ω ) , H 0 2 m ( Ω ) = H 2 m ( Ω ) H 0 1 ( Ω ) , H 0 4 m ( Ω ) = H 4 m ( Ω ) H 0 1 ( Ω ) , H 0 2 m + k ( Ω ) = H 2 m + k ( Ω ) H 0 1 ( Ω ) , E 0 = H 2 m ( Ω ) × L 2 ( Ω ) , E k = H 0 2 m + k ( Ω ) × H 0 k ( Ω ) , ( k = 1 , 2 , , 2 m ), f ( x ) L 2 ( Ω ) . ( , ) and represent the inner product and norms of H respectively, i.e.

( u , v ) = Ω u ( x ) v ( x ) d x , ( u , u ) = u 2 , = L 2 ( Ω ) , P = L P ( Ω ) , = L ( Ω ) .

2. Exponential Attractors

For brevity, define the inner product and norms as follow: U i = ( u i , v i ) E 0 , i = 1 , 2 ,

( U 1 , U 2 ) = ( 2 m u 1 , 2 m u 2 ) + ( v 1 , v 2 ) , (2.1)

U E 0 2 = ( U , U ) E 0 = 2 m u 2 + v 2 . (2.2)

Let U = ( u , v ) E 0 , v = u t + ε u , 0 < ε min { 4 β , 1 α β λ 1 2 m , α 1 + λ 1 2 m } , we can get the Equation (1.1) is equivalent to the following evolution equation

U t + G ( U ) = F ( U ) . (2.3)

where

G = ( ε I ε 2 β ε ( Δ ) 2 m + M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m β ( Δ ) 2 m ε ) ,

F ( U ) = ( 0 f ( x ) g ( u ) ) .

Then, we will use the following notations. Let E 0 , E k are two Hilbert spaces, we have E k E 0 with dense and continuous injection, and E k E 0 is compact. Let S ( t ) is a map from E 0 ( E k ) into E 0 ( E k ) .

In the following definitions, k = 1 , 2 , , 2 m .

Definition 2.1. [14] The semigroup S ( t ) possesses a ( E k , E 0 ) -compact attractor A k , If it exists a compact set A k E 0 , A k attracts all bounded subsets of E k , and under the function of S ( t ) , A k is an invariant set, i.e. S ( t ) A k = A k , t 0 .

Definition 2.2. [14] If A k M k B k and 1) S ( t ) M k M k , t 0 ; 2) M k has finite fractal dimension, d F ( M k ) < + ; 3) there exist universal constants c 1 > 0 , c 2 > 0 , such that dist ( S ( t ) B k , M k ) c 1 e c 2 t , t > 0 , where dist E 0 ( A k , B k ) = sup x A k inf y B k | x y | E 0 , B k E k is the positive invariant set of S ( t ) , the compact set M k E 0 is called a ( E k , E 0 ) -exponential attractor for the system ( S ( t ) , B k ) .

Definition 2.3. [14] if there exists limited function l ( t ) , such that

S ( t ) u S ( t ) v E 0 l ( t ) u v E 0 , ( u , v ) B k . (2.4)

Then the semigroup S ( t ) is Lipschitz continuous in B k .

Definition 2.4. [14] If δ ( 0, 1 8 ) and exists an orthogonal projection P N = P N ( δ ) of rank N = N ( δ ) such that for every ( u , v ) B k ,

S ( t ) u S ( t ) v E 0 δ u v E 0 , (2.5)

or

Q N ( S ( t ) u S ( t ) v ) E 0 P N ( S ( t ) u S ( t ) v ) E 0 (2.6)

Then S ( t ) is said to satisfy the discrete squeezing property, where Q N = I P N .

Theorem 2.1. [15] Assume that 1) S ( t ) possesses a ( E k , E 0 ) -compact attractor A k ; 2) it exists a positive invariant compact set B k E 0 of S ( t ) ; 3) S ( t ) is a Lipschitz continuous map with Lipschitz constant l on B k , and satisfies the discrete squeezing property on B k . Then S ( t ) has a ( E k , E 0 ) -exponential attractor M k , and M k A k on B k , and M k = 0 t t S ( t ) M , M = A k ( j = 1 i = 1 S ( t ) j ( E ( i ) ) ) . Moreover, the fractal dimension of M k satisfies d F ( M k ) c 3 N 0 + 1 , dist E 0 ( S ( t ) B , M k ) c 1 e c 2 t , where N 0 is the smallest N which make the discrete squeezing property established.

Proposition 2.1. [15] There is t 0 ( D k ) such that B k = 0 t t 0 ( D k ) S ( t ) D k ¯ is

the positive invariant set of S ( t ) in E 0 , and B k attracts all bounded subsets of E k , where B k is a closed bounded absorbing set for S ( t ) in E k .

Theorem 2.2. [16] Assuming the stress term M ( s ) and the nonlinear term g ( u ) satisfies the condition (A1)-(A2), f H , ( u 0 , v 0 ) E k , then problem (1.1)-(1.3) admits a unique solution ( u , v ) L ( R + ; E k ) . This solution possesses the following properties:

( u , v ) E 0 2 = 2 m u 2 + v 2 c ( r 0 ) , ( u , v ) E k 2 = 2 m + k u 2 + 2 m v 2 c ( r 1 ) .

We denote the solution in Theorem 2.1 by S ( t ) ( u 0 , v 0 ) = ( u ( t ) , v ( t ) ) . Then S ( t ) composes a continuous semigroup in E 0 . According to Theorem 2.1, we have the ball

D 0 = { ( u , v ) E 0 : ( u , v ) E 0 2 = 2 m u 2 + v 2 c ( r 0 ) } , (2.7)

D k = { ( u , v ) E k : ( u , v ) E k 2 = 2 m + k u 2 + 2 m v 2 c ( r 1 ) } . (2.8)

are absorbing sets of S ( t ) in E 0 and E k respectively. From Proposition 2.1

B k = 0 t t 0 ( D k ) S ( t ) D k ¯ . (2.9)

is a positive invariant compact set of S ( t ) in E 0 , and absorbs all of the bounded subsets D k in E k . According to reference [15] and theorem 2.1, we can get the semigroup { S ( t ) } t 0 possesses ( E k , E 0 ) -compact global attractor

A k = s 0 t s S ( t ) D k ¯ , where the bar means the closure in E 0 , and A k is bounded in E k .

Lemma 2.1. For any U = ( u , v ) E 0 ,

( G ( U ) , U ) E 0 a 1 U E 0 2 + a 2 2 m v 2 . (2.10)

Proof. By (2.1) and (2.2), we have

( G ( U ) , U ) E 0 = ε 2 m u 2 ( 2 m v , 2 m u ) + ( α ε ) v 2 + ε 2 ( u , v ) α v 2 β ε ( 2 m u , 2 m v ) + β m v 2 + M ( m u p p ) ( 2 m u , 2 m v ) . (2.11)

By using Holder’s inequality, Young’s inequality and Poincare’s inequality and the condition (A2), we have,

ε 2 ( u , v ) = ε 2 λ 1 m 2 m u v ε 2 4 2 m u 2 ε 2 λ 1 2 m v 2 . (2.12)

M ( m u p p β ε 1 ) ( 2 m u , 2 m v ) ( μ 0 β ε 1 ) ( 2 m u 2 4 + 2 m v 2 ) = β ε ( 2 m u 2 4 + 2 m v 2 ) . (2.13)

Substitute inequality (2.12)-(2.13) into Equation (2.11), we get

( G ( U ) , U ) E 0 ( ε β ε 4 ε 2 4 ) 2 m u 2 + ( α ε ε 2 λ 1 2 m ) v 2 + ( β β ε α λ 1 2 m ) 2 m v 2 . (2.14)

According to the assumption, we can get ε β ε 4 ε 2 4 > 0 , α ε ε 2 λ 1 2 m > 0 , β β ε α λ 1 2 m > 0 . Let a 1 = min { ε β ε 4 ε 2 4 , α ε ε 2 λ 1 2 m } , a 2 = β β ε α λ 1 2 m , so we can get

( G ( U ) , U ) E 0 a 1 U E 0 2 + a 2 2 m v 2 . (2.15)

The Lemma 2.1 is proved. Then we prove the Lipschitz property and the discrete squeezing property of S ( t ) .

Set S ( t ) U 0 = U ( t ) = ( u ( t ) , v ( t ) ) T , where v = u t ( t ) + ε u ( t ) ; and S ( t ) V 0 = V ( t ) = ( u ^ ( t ) , v ^ ( t ) ) T , where v ^ ( t ) = u ^ t ( t ) + ε u ^ ( t ) ; let Y ( t ) = S ( t ) U 0 S ( t ) V 0 = U ( t ) V ( t ) = ( w ( t ) , z ( t ) ) T , where z ( t ) = w t ( t ) + ε w ( t ) , w ( t ) = u ( t ) u ^ ( t ) , w t ( t ) = v ( t ) v ^ ( t ) , then Y ( t ) satisfies

Y t + G ( U ) G ( V ) ( 0 , g ( u ) g ( u ^ ) ) T = 0 , (2.16)

Y ( 0 ) = U 0 V 0 . (2.17)

Lemma 2.2. (Lipschitz property). For U 0 , V 0 B k and t 0 ,

S ( t ) U 0 S ( t ) V 0 E 0 e γ t U 0 V 0 E 0 2 . (2.18)

Proof. Taking the inner product of the Equation (2.16) with Y ( t ) in E 0 , we can get

1 2 d d t Y ( t ) 2 + ( G ( U ) G ( V ) , Y ( t ) ) + ( g ( u ) g ( u ^ ) , z ( t ) ) = 0. (2.19)

Similar to Lemma 2.1, we have

( G ( U ) G ( V ) , Y ( t ) ) E 0 a 1 Y ( t ) E 0 2 + a 2 2 m z ( t ) E 0 2 . (2.20)

By using the condition (A1) Young’s inequality Poincare’s inequality and differential mean value theorem, we get

| ( g ( u ) g ( u ^ ) , z ( t ) ) | | g ( ξ ) | w ( t ) z ( t ) c 4 λ 1 m 2 m w ( t ) z ( t ) c 4 λ 1 m 2 ( 2 m w ( t ) 2 + z ( t ) 2 ) = c 4 λ 1 m 2 Y ( t ) 2 . (2.21)

Where ξ = θ + ( 1 θ ) u ^ , 0 < θ < 1 .

Substitute inequality (2.20)-(2.21) into equation (2.19), we get

d d t Y ( t ) 2 + 2 a 1 Y ( t ) E 0 2 + 2 a 2 2 m z ( t ) E 0 2 c 4 λ 1 m Y ( t ) 2 . (2.22)

We can get

d d t Y ( t ) 2 c 4 λ 1 m Y ( t ) 2 . (2.23)

According to Gronwall’s inequality, we have

Y ( t ) 2 e c 4 λ 1 m t Y ( 0 ) 2 = e γ t Y ( 0 ) 2 . (2.24)

where γ = c 4 λ 1 m . Therefore, we get

S ( T ) U 0 S ( T ) V 0 E 0 e γ t U 0 V 0 E 0 2 . (2.25)

The Lemma 2.2 is proved. n

Now, we define the operator Δ : D ( Δ ) H 4 m , the domain of definition is D ( Δ ) = H 2 ( Ω ) H 0 1 ( Ω ) , obviously, Δ is an unbounded self-adjoint closed positive operator, and ( Δ ) 1 is compact, we find by elementary spectral theory the existence of an orthonormal basis of H consisting of eigenvectors w j of Δ , such that:

( ( Δ ) w j = λ j w j , j = 1 , 2 , , 0 < λ 1 λ 2 λ j as j . (2.26)

For a given integer n, 0 < n N we denote by P n the orthogonal projection of H 4 m onto the space spanned by w 1 , , w n i.e. p = p n = H 4 m span { w 1 , w 2 , , w n } , let Q n = I P n . Then we have

( Δ ) 2 m u λ n + 1 2 m u , u Q = Q n ( H 4 m ( Ω ) H 0 1 ( Ω ) ) , (2.27)

Q n u u , u H . (2.28)

where u 2 λ n + 1 4 m u D ( ( Δ ) 2 m ) 2 .

Lemma 2.3. For any U 0 , V 0 B k , n 0 N * , n 0 N , Let

Q n 0 ( t ) = Q n 0 ( U ( t ) V ( t ) ) = Q m 0 Y ( t ) = ( ω n 0 , z n 0 ) T , (2.29)

then we have

Y n 0 ( t ) E 0 2 ( e 2 a 1 t + c 2 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 a 1 + γ e γ t ) Y ( 0 ) E 0 2 , (2.30)

Proof. Taking projection operator Q n 0 in (2.16), we have

Y n 0 t ( t ) + Q n 0 ( G ( U ) G ( V ) ) + ( 0, Q n 0 ( g ( u ) g ( u ^ ) ) ) T = 0. (2.31)

Taking the inner product ( , ) E 0 in (2.31) with Y n 0 ( t ) , we get

1 2 d d t Y n 0 ( t ) 2 + a 1 Y n 0 ( t ) 2 + a 2 2 m z n 0 ( t ) 2 + Q n 0 ( g ( u ) g ( u ^ ) , z n 0 ( t ) ) = 0. (2.32)

According to (A1) and Young inequality, we have

| Q n 0 ( g ( u ) g ( u ^ ) , z n 0 ( t ) ) | | g ( ξ ) | w n 0 ( t ) z n 0 ( t ) c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 m w n 0 ( t ) z n 0 ( t ) c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 ( 2 m w n 0 ( t ) 2 + z n 0 ( t ) 2 ) = c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 Y n 0 ( t ) 2 . (2.33)

where ξ = θ n 0 + ( 1 θ n 0 ) u ^ , 0 < θ n 0 < 1 .

Together with (2.32)-(2.33) and Lemma 2.2, it follows

d d t Y n 0 E 0 2 + 2 a 1 Y n 0 ( t ) 2 c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m Y n 0 ( t ) 2 = c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m S ( t ) U 0 S ( t ) V 0 2 c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m e γ t U 0 V 0 2 = c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m e γ t Y ( 0 ) 2 . (2.34)

By using Gronwall’s inequality, we get

Y n 0 ( t ) 2 Y ( 0 ) 2 e 2 a 1 t + c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 a 1 + γ e γ t Y ( 0 ) 2 = ( e 2 a 1 t + c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 a 1 + γ e γ t ) Y ( 0 ) 2 . (2.35)

The Lemma 2.3 is proved. n

Lemma 2.4. (Discrete squeezing property). For any U 0 , V 0 B k , τ * 0 , if

P n 0 ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 ( I P n 0 ) ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 , (2.36)

then

S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 E 0 1 8 U 0 V 0 E 0 . (2.37)

Proof. If P n 0 ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 ( I P n 0 ) ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 , then

S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 E 0 2 ( I P n 0 ) ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 2 + P n 0 ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 2 2 ( I P n 0 ) ( S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 ) E 0 2 2 ( e 2 a 1 τ * + c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 a 1 + γ e γ τ * ) U 0 V 0 E 0 2 . (2.38)

Let τ * be large enough,

e 2 a 1 τ * 1 256 . (2.39)

Also let n 0 be large enough, we get

c 5 λ n 0 + 1 m 2 a 1 + γ e γ τ * 1 256 . (2.40)

Substitute inequality (2.39)-(2.40) into Equation (2.38), we get

S ( τ * ) U 0 S ( τ * ) V 0 E 0 2 1 8 U 0 V 0 E 0 2 . (2.41)

The Lemma 2.4 is proved. n

Theorem 2.3. Let (A1), (A2) be in force, assume that f H , ( u 0 , v 0 ) E 0 ( E k ) , ( k = 1 , 2 , , 2 m ), then the semigroup S ( t ) determined by (1.1)-(1.3) possesses an ( E k , E 0 ) -exponential attractor M k on B,

M k = 0 t τ * S ( t ) ( A k ( j = 1 i = 1 S ( τ * ) j ( E ( i ) ) ) ) , (2.42)

The fractal dimension of M k satisfies

d F ( M k ) c 3 N 0 + 1. (2.43)

Proof. According to Theorem 2.1, Lemma 2.2 and Lemma 2.4, Theorem 2.2 is easily proven. n

3. Inertial Manifolds

Next, we will prove the existence of inertial manifolds when N is large enough by using graph norm transformation method.

Definition 3.1. [17] Assume S = S ( t ) t 0 is a solution semigroup of Banach space E k = H 0 2 m + k ( Ω ) × H 0 k ( Ω ) ( k = 1 , 2 , , 2 m ) , then a family of inertial manifolds μ k is a subset of E k and satisfies the following three properties:

1) μ k is finite dimensional Lipschitz manifold of E k ;

2) μ k is positively invariant for the semigroup { S ( t ) } t 0 , i.e. u 0 μ k , S ( t ) u 0 μ k , t 0 ;

3) μ k attracts exponentially all the orbits of the solution, i.e. ϑ > 0 , for u E k , k > 0 , such that

dist ( S ( t ) u , u ) k e ϑ t , t 0. (3.1)

Lemma 3.1. Let Λ : E k E k be an operator and assume that F C b ( E k , E k ) satisfies the Lipschitz condition

F ( U ) F ( U ) E k l F U V E k , U , V E k . (3.2)

The operator Λ is said to satisfy the spectral gap condition relative to F, if the point spectrum of the operator Λ can be divided into two parts σ 1 and σ 2 , of which σ 1 is finite, and we have

Λ 1 = sup { Re λ | λ σ 1 } , Λ 2 = inf { Re λ | λ σ 2 } , (3.3)

and E k i = span { ω j | j σ i , i = 1 , 2 } .

Then

Λ 2 Λ 1 > 4 l F , (3.4)

and the orthogonal decomposition

E k = E k 1 E k 2 , (3.5)

Then P 1 : E k E k 1 and P 2 : E k E k 2 are both continuous orthogonal projections . The Lemma 3.1 is proved.

Lemma 3.2. Let the eigenvalues μ j ± ( j 1 ) is non-decreasing, and for m N * , there exists N m , such that μ N + 1 and μ N are consecutive adjacent values.

Lemma 3.3. The function g ( u ) satisfies g : H 0 k ( Ω ) L 2 ( Ω ) which is uniformly bounded and globally Lipschitz continuous, and l is the Lipschitz coefficient.

Proof. For u 1 , u 2 H 0 k ( Ω ) , we have

g ( u 1 ) g ( u 2 ) = g ( η ) ( u 1 u 2 ) g ( η ) u 1 u 2 H k , (3.6)

where η ( u 1 , u 2 ) , From the hypothesis (A1) and the differential mean value theorem, we know

g ( u 1 ) g ( u 2 ) C 6 u 1 u 2 H 0 k , (3.7)

Let l = C 6 , l is the Lipschitz coefficient. n

Then we prove the existence of a family of the inertial manifold of this equation, Equation (1.1) is equivalent to the following first-order evolution equation:

U t + Λ U = F ( U ) , (3.8)

where

U = ( u , v ) T = ( u , u t ) T , Λ = ( 0 I M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m β ( Δ ) 2 m ) , F ( U ) = ( 0 f ( x ) g ( u ) ) ,

D ( Λ ) = { u H 4 m ( Ω ) | u H , ( Δ ) 2 m u H 4 m ( Ω ) } × H 2 m ( Ω ) .

We consider in E k the usual graph norm, induced by the scalar product

U , V E k = ( M 2 m + k u , 2 m + k y ¯ ) + ( v , z ¯ ) . (3.9)

where U = ( u , v ) T , V = ( y , z ) T E k , and y ¯ , z ¯ respectively denote the conjugation of y and z, and v , z H 0 2 m + k ( Ω ) , u , y H 0 2 m + k ( Ω ) . Moreover, the operator Λ is monotone, indeed, for U D ( Λ ) , we have

Λ U , U E k = ( M 2 m + k u t , 2 m + k u ¯ ) + ( M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m u + β ( Δ ) 2 m u t , v ¯ ) ( M 2 m + k u t , 2 m + k u ¯ ) + M ( 2 m + k u , 2 m + k v ) + β ( Δ m v , Δ m v ¯ ) β 2 m v 2 > 0. (3.10)

so that Λ is a Monotonically increasing operator and Λ U , U E k is real and nonnegative. To determine the eigenvalues of Λ , we observe that the eigenvalue equation

Λ U = λ U , U = ( u , v ) T E k (3.11)

is equivalent to the system

{ v = λ u , M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m u + β ( Δ ) 2 m v = 0. (3.12)

Thus, we can get the eigenvalue problem

{ λ 2 u + M ( m u p p ) ( Δ ) 2 m u β λ ( Δ ) 2 m u = 0 , u | Ω = ( Δ ) 2 m u | Ω = 0. (3.13)

Using ( Δ ) k u with the first formula of (3.13) to take the inner product, and bring u j to the position of u, we can get

λ 2 k u 2 + M ( m u p p ) 2 m + k u 2 β λ 2 m + k u 2 = 0. (3.14)

Regarding Equation (3.14) as a quadratic equation of one variable with respect to λ , for j N + and let s = m u p p , M = M ( s ) , the corresponding eigenvalues of equation (3.11) are as follows:

λ j ± = β μ j ± β 2 μ j 2 4 M μ j 2 . (3.15)

where μ j ( j 1 ) is the eigenvalue of ( Δ ) 2 m in H 0 2 m ( Ω ) , and μ j = λ 1 j 2 m n . Because of β is large enough, the eigenvalue of Λ are all positive and real numbers, the corresponding eigenvalues have the form

U j ± = ( u j , λ j ± u j ) . (3.16)

For formula (3.15), for the convenience of later use, define the following formula

2 m + k u j = μ j , k u j = 1 , 2 m k u j = 1 μ j , k = 1 , 2 , , 2 m . (3.17)

Next, it will be proved that the eigenvalue of the operator Λ satisfies the spectral interval condition.

Theorem 3.1 let l is the Lipschitz constant of g ( u ) , assume μ j 4 M ( s ) β 2 , if N 1 Z + is large enough, when N N 1 , the following inequality holds

( μ N + 1 + μ N ) ( β β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ) 8 l β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) + 1. (3.18)

Then, the operator Λ satisfies the spectral gap condition of Lemma 3.1.

Proof. Because of all the eigenvalues of the operator Λ are positive real numbers, β 2 M μ j and the sequence { λ j } j 1 and { λ j + } j 1 are monotonically

increasing. The theorem is proved in four steps below.

step 1 Since λ j ± is a non-decreasing sequence, according to Lemma 3.2, given N, so that λ N and λ N + 1 are consecutive adjacent eigenvalues, the eigenvalues of the operator Λ are decomposed into σ 1 and σ 2 , where σ 1 is the finite parts, which are expressed as follows

σ 1 = { λ h , λ j + | max { λ h , λ j + } λ N } , (3.19)

σ 2 = { λ h + , λ j ± | λ h λ N min { λ h + , λ j ± } } . (3.20)

step 2 The corresponding E k is decomposed into

E k 1 = span { U h , U j ± | λ h , λ j + σ 1 } , (3.21)

E k 2 = span { U h + , U j + | λ h , λ j ± σ 2 } . (3.22)

We aim at madding two orthogonal subspaces of E k and verifying the spectral gap condition (3.4) is true when Λ 1 = λ N , Λ 2 = λ N + 1 . Therefore, we further decompose E k 2 = E S + E R , i.e.

E S = span { U h | λ h λ N λ h + } , (3.23)

E R = span { U R + | λ N λ j ± } . (3.24)

And set E N = E k 1 E S . Note that E k 1 and E S are finite dimensional, that λ N E k 1 , λ N + 1 E R , and that the reason why E k 1 is not orthogonal to E k 2 is that, while it is orthogonal to E R , E k 1 is not orthogonal to E S . We now introduce two functions Ψ : E N R and ψ : E R R , defined by

Φ ( U , V ) = β ( 2 m + k u , 2 m + k y ¯ ) + 2 β ( 2 m k z ¯ , 2 m u ) + 2 β ( 2 m k v , 2 m y ¯ ) + 4 ( 2 m k v , 2 m k z ) 4 M ( m u p p ) ( k u ¯ , k y ) + ( 2 β 2 β ) ( 2 m + k u ¯ , 2 m + k y ) . (3.25)

Ψ ( U , V ) = ( 2 m + k u , 2 m + k y ¯ ) + ( 2 m k z ¯ , 2 m + k u ) ( 2 m k v , 2 m + k y ¯ ) 4 M ( m u p p ) ( k u ¯ , k y ) + ( β 2 1 ) ( 2 m + k u ¯ , 2 m + k y ) . (3.26)

where U = ( u , v ) T , V = ( y , z ) T E N , and y ¯ , z ¯ are respectively the conjugates of y , z . We now show that Φ and Ψ are positive definite. For U = ( u , v ) E N , we have

Φ ( U , V ) = β ( 2 m + k u , 2 m + k u ¯ ) + 2 β ( 2 m k v ¯ , 2 m u ) + 2 β ( 2 m k v , 2 m u ¯ ) + 4 ( 2 m k v , 2 m k v ) 4 M ( m u p p ) ( k u ¯ , k u ) + ( 2 β 2 β ) ( 2 m + k u ¯ , 2 m + k u )

β 2 m + k u 2 4 2 m k v ¯ 2 β 2 2 m + k u 2 4 M ( s ) m + k u 2 + ( 2 β 2 β ) 2 m + k u 2 + 4 2 m k v ¯ 2 = β 2 2 m + k u 2 4 μ 1 k u 2 ( β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ) k u 2 . (3.27)

When β is large enough, we conclude that Φ ( U , U ) 0 , i.e. Φ is positive definite. Similarly, for U = ( u , v ) E R , we have

Ψ ( U , V ) = ( 2 m + k u , 2 m + k u ¯ ) + ( 2 m k v ¯ , 2 m + k u ) ( 2 m k v , 2 m + k u ¯ ) 4 M ( m u p p ) ( k u ¯ , k u ) + ( β 2 1 ) ( 2 m + k u ¯ , 2 m + k u ) 2 m + k u 2 4 M ( s ) m + k u 2 + ( β 2 1 ) 2 m + k u 2 ( β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ) k u 2 . (3.28)

When β is large enough, we conclude that Ψ ( U , U ) 0 , i.e. Ψ is positive definite.

Thus Φ and Ψ define a scalar product, respectively on E N and E R , and we can define an equivalent scalar product in E k , by

U , V E k = Φ ( P N U , P N V ) + Ψ ( P R U , P R V ) . (3.29)

where P N and P R are respectively the projections of E k E N and E k E R . Rewrite (3.29) as follows

U , V E k = Φ ( U , V ) + Ψ ( U , V ) . (3.30)

We proceed then to show that the subspaces E k 1 and E k 2 defined in (3.21), (3.22) are orthogonal with respect to the scalar product (3.29). In fact, it is sufficient to show that E N is orthogonal to E S , in turn, this reduces to showing that U h , U h + E k = 0 if U h E N and U h + E S . Recalling (3.27) and (3.28), we immediately compute that

U j + , U j E k = Φ ( U j + , U j ) = β ( 2 m + k u j , 2 m + k u ¯ j ) + 2 β ( λ j 2 m k u ¯ j , 2 m u j ) + 2 β ( λ j + 2 m k u j , 2 m u ¯ j ) + 4 ( λ j + 2 m k u j , λ j 2 m k u j ) 4 M ( m u p p ) ( k u ¯ j , k u j ) + ( 2 β 2 β ) ( 2 m + k u ¯ j , 2 m + k u j )

= β 2 m + k u j 2 2 β ( λ j + λ j + ) k u j 2 + 4 λ j λ j + 2 m k u j 2 4 M ( s ) k u j 2 + ( 2 β 2 β ) 2 m + k u j 2 = 2 β 2 μ j 2 β ( λ j + λ j + ) + 4 λ j λ j + 1 μ j 4 M ( s ) . (3.31)

According to (3.15), we have

λ j + λ j + = β μ j . (3.32)

λ j λ j + = M μ j . (3.33)

Therefore

U j + , U j E k = Φ ( U j + , U j ) = 0. (3.34)

step 3 Further, we estimate the Lipschitz constant l F of F ( U ) = ( 0 , f ( x ) g ( u ) ) T , according to Lemma 3.3 we can get g : H 0 2 m ( Ω ) L 2 ( Ω ) is uniformly bounded and globally Lipschitz continuous. For U ( u , v ) T E k , U i = ( u i , v i ) T P i U ( i = 1 , 2 ) , we have

U E k 2 = Φ ( P 1 U , P 1 U ) + Ψ ( P 2 U , P 2 U ) ( β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ) k P 1 u 2 + ( β 2 λ 1 m 4 μ 1 ) k P 2 u 2 ( β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ) k u 2 . (3.35)

Given U = ( u , v ) T , V = ( u ˜ , v ˜ ) T = ( y , z ) T E k , we have

F ( U ) F ( V ) E k = g ( u ) g ( u ˜ ) l u u ˜ 1 β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) U V E k . (3.36)

Thus, we have

l F 1 β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) . (3.37)

step 4 Now, we will show the spectral gap condition (3.4) holds.

Since Λ 1 = λ N , Λ 2 = λ N + 1 , then

Λ 2 Λ 1 = λ N + 1 λ N = β 2 ( μ N + 1 μ N ) + 1 2 ( R ( N ) R ( N + 1 ) ) . (3.38)

where R ( N ) = β 2 μ N 2 4 M μ N 2 .

There exists N 1 0 , such that for N N 1 , R 1 ( N ) = 1 β 2 β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) 4 M β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) . We can get

R ( N ) R ( N + 1 ) + β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ( μ N + 1 μ N ) = β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ( μ N + 1 R 1 ( N + 1 ) μ N R 1 ( N ) ) , (3.39)

According to assumption (A2), we can easily see that

l i m N + ( R ( N ) R ( N + 1 ) + β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ( μ N + 1 μ N ) ) = 0, (3.40)

Then according to (3.18) and (3.37)-(3.40), we have

Λ 2 Λ 1 1 2 ( ( μ N + 1 μ N ) ( β β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) ) 1 ) 4 l β 2 μ j 2 4 M ( s ) 4 l F . (3.41)

The Theorem 3.1 is proved.

Theorem 3.2. Under the conclusion of Theorem 3.1, the problem (1.1)-(1.3) exists a family of inertial manifolds μ k in E k

μ k = graph ( m ) : = { ζ k + γ ( ζ k ) : ζ k E k 1 } (3.42)

where E k 1 , E k 2 defined in (3.21)-(3.22), and χ : E k 1 E k 2 is Lipschitz continuous function. n
