| contents | In this paper, we revisit asymptotic stability for the two-dimensional incompressible porous media equation and the Stokes transport system in a periodic channel. It is well-known that a stratified density, which strictly decreases in the vertical direction, is asymptotically stable under sufficiently small and smooth perturbations. We provide improvements in the regularity assumptions on the perturbation and in the convergence rate. Unlike the standard approach for stability analysis relying on linearized equations, we directly address the nonlinear problem by exploiting the energy structure of each system. While it is widely known that the potential energy is a Lyapunov functional in both systems, our key observation is that the second derivative of the potential energy reveals a (degenerate) coercive structure, which arises from the fact that the solution converges to the minimizer of the energy. |
