Linearized Stability of Partial Differential Equations with Application to Stabilization of the Kuramoto--Sivashinsky Equation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Linearization is a useful tool for analyzing the stability of nonlinear differential equations. Unfortunately, the proof of the validity of this approach for ordinary differential equations does not generalize to all nonlinear partial differential equations. General results giving conditions for when stability (or instability) of the linearized equation implies the same for the nonlinear equation are given here. These results are applied to stability and stabilization of the Kuramoto--Sivashinsky equation, a nonlinear partial differential equation that models reaction-diffusion systems. The stability of the equilibrium solutions depends on the value of a positive parameter $\nu$. It is shown that if $\nu>1$, then the set of constant equilibrium solutions is globally asymptotically stable. If $\nu<1$, then the equilibria are unstable. It is also shown that stabilizing the linearized equation implies local exponential stability of the equation. Stabilization of the Kuramoto--Sivashinsky equation using a single distributed control is considered and it is described how to use a finite-dimensional approximation to construct a stabilizing controller. The results are illustrated with simulations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
