This paper is concerned with nonlinear elliptic equations in nondivergence form where the operator has a first order drift term which is not Lipschitz continuous. Under this condition the equations are nonhomogeneous and nonnegative…
Variational principles play a central role in classical mechanics, providing compact formulations of dynamics and direct access to conserved quantities. While holonomic systems admit well-known action formulations, non-holonomic systems --…

We consider the problem of existence of entropy weak solutions to scalar balance laws with a dissipative source term. The flux function may be discontinuous with respect both to the space variable x and the unknown quantity u. The problem…
Let $u(t,x)$ be the solution to the Cauchy problem of a scalar conservation law in one space dimension. It is well known that even for smooth initial data the solution can become discontinuous in finite time and global entropy weak solution…
Motivated by cosmological models of the early universe we analyse the dynamics of the Einstein equations with a minimally coupled scalar field with monomial potentials $V(\phi)=\frac{(\lambda\phi)^{2n}}{2n}$, $\lambda>0$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$,…
In a Hilbert space $H$, in order to develop fast optimization methods, we analyze the asymptotic behavior, as time $t$ tends to infinity, of inertial continuous dynamics where the damping acts as a closed-loop control. The function $f: H…
We discuss the consistency of a recently proposed class of theories described by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar, the trace of the energy-momentum tensor and the contraction of the Ricci tensor with the energy-momentum tensor. We…
Entropy functionals (i.e. convex integral functionals) and extensions of these functionals are minimized on convex sets. This paper is aimed at reducing as much as possible the assumptions on the constraint set. Dual equalities and…
The aim of this article is to study the limiting behavior of the solutions for the scaled generalized Euler equations of compressible fluid flow. When the initial data is of Riemann type, we showed the existence of solution which consists…
