Long-time stability of multi-dimensional noncharacteristic viscous boundary layers
Abstract
Description
We establish long-time stability of multi-dimensional noncharacteristic boundary layers of a class of hyperbolic--parabolic systems including the compressible Navier--Stokes equations with inflow [outflow] boundary conditions, under the assumption of strong spectral, or uniform Evans, stability. Evans stabiity has been verified for small-amplitude layers by Guès, Métivier, Williams, and Zumbrun. For large-amplitude layers, it may be efficiently checked numerically, as done in the one-dimensional case by Costanzino, Humpherys, Nguyen, and Zumbrun.
