In this paper,we are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of global solutions of the modified KS-CGL equations for flames governed by a sequential reaction,where the term|P|2Pis replaced with the generalized form|P|2σP, see[18].The main novelty compared with[18]in this paper is to control the norms of the f i rst order of the solutions and extend the global well-posedness to three dimensional space.

1 Introduction

This paper is devoted to the existence and uniqueness of global solutions of the following coupled modified Kuramoto-Sivashinsky-complex Ginzburg-Landau(GKSCGL)equations for flames

with the periodic initial conditions

where ? is a box with lengthLdenotedTn(n=1,2,3).The complex functionP(x,t)denotes the rescaled amplitude of the flame oscillations,and the real functionQ(x,t)is the deformation of the f i rst front.The Landau coefficientsμ,νand the coupling coefficientη＞0 are real,whiler1andr2are complex parameters of the formr1=r1r+ir1i,r2=r2r+ir2i,respectively.The coefficientg＞0 is proportional to the supercriticality of the oscillatory mode,δ＞0 is a constant,L＞0 is the period andeiis the standard coordinate vector,and the coefficientξ=±1.The parameterσ,μ,νsatisfy

Forδ=0,the coupled GKS-CGL equations(1.1)and(1.2)are reduced to the classical KS-CGL equations[1],which describe the nonlinear interaction between the monotonic and oscillatory modes of instability of the two uniformly propagating flame fronts in a sequential reaction.Specifically,they describe both the long-wave evolution of the oscillatory mode near the oscillatory instability threshold and the evolution of the monotonic mode.For the background of the uniformly propagating premixed flame fronts and the derivation of the KS-CGL model,one refer to[1-4] for details.If there exist no coupling with the monotonic model,then equation(1.1) is the well-known CGL equation that describes the weakly nonlinear evolution of a long-scaled instability[5].Forδ=0 and the coupled coefficientη=0 in equation (1.2),equation(1.2)reduces to the well known KS equation[6],which governs the flame front’s spatio-temporal evolution and produces monotonic instability.It’s seen that the coupled GKS-CGL equations(1.1)and(1.2)can better describe the dynamical behavior for flames governed by a sequential reaction,since they generalize the KS equations,the CGL equations,and the KS-CGL equations.

So far,the mathematical analysis and physical study about the CGL equation and KS equation have been done by many researchers.For example,the existence of global solutions and the attractor for the CGL equation were studied in[7-11]. For some other results,see[12-15]and reference therein.However,little progress has been made for the coupled KS-CGL equations which are derived to describe the nonlinear evolution for flames by A.A.Golovin,eta[1],who studied the traveling waves of the coupled equations numerically and the spiral waves in[16],where new types of instabilities are exhibited.Meanwhile,there are few works to consider mathematical analytical properties of the KS-CGL equations and the generalized KS-CGL equations,even the existence and uniqueness of the solutions.

In[17],the Littlewood-Paley theory is used to obtain the local solution and global solution with small initial conditions for the coupled KS-Burgers which are derived by[1],while in[18]an additional sixth order term is added to control the nonlinear term estimate through which one can get the global smooth solution of the generalized GKS-CGL equation.In this paper,via delicate a prior estimates and the Galerkin method,we consider the global smooth solution of GKS-CGL equations where the third term is replaced by(1+iν)|P|2σP,that is,we study system(1.1)-(1.4)and extend the global well-posedness to the three dimensional space.

The rest of this paper is organized as follows.In Section 2,we brief l y give some notations and preliminaries.In Section 3,local solutions are constructed by the contraction mapping theorem.A prior estimates for the solutions of the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4)are obtained in Section 4.In Section 5,we deduce from the so-called continuity method that the existence and uniqueness of the global solutions of the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4).

For convenience,we will recall some notations and preliminaries which will be used in the sequel.

5 The Local Solutions and Global Solutions

In this section,we will obtain the existence and uniqueness of the local solutions and global solutions of the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4).From the lemmas in Section 3,we deduce our main result:

Theorem 5.1(Local existence)Assume that P0(x)(?),Q0(x)(?)and the parameter σ,μ,ν satisfy assumptions(A1)and(A2).Then there exist local solutions P(x,t)and Q(x,t)to the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4),satisfying

where t0

Finally,we are able to deduce from this local existence theorem combined with the a priori estimates that the solutions exist globally in time.

Theorem 5.2(Global existence)Assume that P0(x)(?),Q0(x)(?)and the parameter σ,μ,ν satisfy assumptions(A1)and(A2).Then there exist global solutions P(x,t)and Q(x,t)to the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4),satisfying

where the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4).

Proof From Theorem 5.1,there exist local solutionsP(x,t)andQ(x,t)of the periodic initial value problem(1.1)-(1.4)and the existence timet0depends on‖P0(x)and‖Q0(x).According to the priori estimates in Section 4 and the so-called continuity method,we complete the proof.
