## Stability for static walls in ferromagnetic nanowires.(English)Zbl 1220.82163

This paper analyzes the time asymptotic stability of 1-D Bloch walls in ferromagnetic nanowires. First, it is considered the Landau-Lifshitz equation (LLE), describing variations of the magnetic moment $$u = (u_1, u_2, u_3)$$. The LLE is simplified, by considering the 1-D model and using the presentation of the demagnetizing field in the canonical basis $$(e_1, e_2, e_3)$$ of $$\mathbb R^3$$, when the diameter of the wire tends to zero.
The aim of the paper is to study the stability of a static wall profile $$M_0$$, which separates the domain in which $$u = -e_1$$ (in the neighborhood of $$-\infty$$) and the domain in which $$u = +e_1$$ (in the neighborhood of $$+\infty$$). The reduced LLE is invariant by translation in the variable $$x$$ and by rotation around $$e_1$$. Then, the perturbations of $$M_0$$ are described in the mobile frame, on the base of equivalent formulation of reduced LLE with unknown $$r$$ in the form $$\frac{\partial r}{\partial t}= Lr+F(x,r,\frac{\partial r}{\partial x},\frac{\partial^2r}{\partial x^2})$$, where $$Lr$$ denotes the linear part. The stability of $$M_0$$ for the reduced LLE is equivalent to the stability of the zero solution for the pointed equation.
The two-parameter family of static solutions for the reduced LLE induces in the new coordinates a two-parameter family of static solutions for the above equation for $$r$$. Further, the solution $$r$$ is decomposed by a rather classical decomposition to study the static solution stability for semilinear parabolic equations. The main difficulty is that the above equation for $$r$$ is quasilinear, i.e. the nonlinear term $$F$$ also depends on $$\frac{\partial^2r}{\partial x^2}$$. Then, variational estimates for the nonlinear part combined with more classical linear estimates on the operator $$L$$, are used. This leads to the proof of the main theorem on the stability of the static Bloch wall profile.
