We consider a linear non-autonomous evolutionary Cauchy problem \begin{equation} \dot{u} (t)+A(t)u(t)=f(t) \hbox{ for }\ \hbox{a.e. t}\in [0,T],\quad u(0)=u_0, \end{equation} where the operator $A(t)$ arises from a time depending…

We show the short time existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem for fully nonlinear systems of arbitrary even order on closed manifolds which are strongly parabolic at the initial values. The proof uses a linearization…

We consider nonlinear hyperbolic systems with a general source and prove that for appropriately chosen smooth initial data the lifespan of the associated $C^1$-solution $u$ cannot be infinite. We employ ideas of F. John (1974) and L.…

We prove that vanishing viscosity solutions to smooth non-degenerate systems of balance laws having small bounded variation, in one space dimension, must be functions of special bounded variation. For more than one equation, this is new…

We obtain new $L^1$ contraction results for bounded entropy solutions of Cauchy problems for degenerate parabolic equations. The equations we consider have possibly strongly degenerate local or non-local diffusion terms. As opposed to…

We consider the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem to doubly nonlinear systems of the form \begin{align*} \partial_t \big( |u|^{q-1}u \big) - \operatorname{div} \big( D_\xi f(x,u,Du) \big) = - D_u f(x,u,Du) \end{align*} with $q \in (0, \infty)$ in a…

We consider a prototypical nonlinear parabolic equation whose flux has three distinguished features: it is nonlinear with respect to both the unknown and its gradient, it is homogeneous, and it depends only on the direction of the gradient.…

We consider the Cauchy-problem for the following parabolic equation: \begin{equation*} \displaystyle u_t = \Delta u+ f(u,|x|), \end{equation*} where $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$, $n >2$, and $f=f(u,|x|)$ is either critical or supercritical with…

In this paper, we show that a geometrical condition on $2\times2$ systems of conservation laws leads to non-uniqueness in the class of 1D continuous functions. This demonstrates that the Liu Entropy Condition alone is insufficient to…

Consider the p-system describing the subsonic flow of a fluid in a pipe with section a = a(x). We prove that the resulting Cauchy problem generates a Lipschitz semigroup, provided the total variation of the initial datum and the oscillation…

We revisit Yudovich's well-posedness result for the $2$-dimensional Euler equations for an inviscid incompressible fluid on either a sufficiently regular (not necessarily bounded) open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ or on the torus…

We consider the Cauchy problem \begin{align*} \partial_t u+u\partial_x u+L(\partial_x u) &=0, \\ u(0,x)=u_0(x) \end{align*} on the torus and on the real line for a class of Fourier multiplier operators $L$, and prove that the solution map…

A classical model for sources and sinks in a two-dimensional perfect incompressible fluid occupying a bounded domain dates back to Yudovich in 1966. In this model, on the one hand, the normal component of the fluid velocity is prescribed on…

We study BV solutions for a $2\times2$ system of hyperbolic balance laws. We show that when initial data have small total variation on $(-\infty,\infty)$ and small amplitude, and decay sufficiently fast to a constant equilibrium state as…

We study the Cauchy problem for a multidimensional scalar conservation law on the Bohr compactification of $\R^n$. The existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions are established in the general case of merely continuous flux vector. We…

Solutions of the Cauchy problem for the wave equation on a non-globally hyperbolic spacetime, which contains closed timelike curves (time machines) are considered. It is proved, that there exists a solution of the Cauchy problem, it is…
