Given a strictly hyperbolic $n\times n$ system of conservation laws, it is well known that there exists a unique Lipschitz semigroup of weak solutions, defined on a domain of functions with small total variation, which are limits of…
We consider the coupling between the equations of motion of a compressible fluid in two and three space dimensions with Christov's equation for the heat flux. Christov's equation is a frame indifferent formulation of the classical model of…

We prove the existence of BV solutions for $2\times 2$ system of hyperbolic balance laws in one space dimension. The flux is assumed to have two genuinely nonlinear characteristic fields. We consider a general force which may possibly…
The helicity is a topological conserved quantity of the Euler equations which imposes significant constraints on the dynamics of vortex lines. In the compressible setting the conservation law only holds under the assumption that the…
By using geometric methods and superenergy tensors, we find new simple criteria for the causal propagation of physical fields in spacetimes of any dimension. The method can be applied easily to many different theories and to arbitrary…
We consider a class of multidimensional conservation laws with vanishing nonlinear diffusion and dispersion terms. Under a condition on the relative size of the diffusion and dispersion coefficients, we establish that the…
We propose a new class of vector fields to construct a conserved charge in a general field theory whose energy momentum tensor is covariantly conserved. We show that there always exists such a vector field in a given field theory even…
The following inequalities are established, improving a former inequality due to Kojima. For any closed arithmetic hyperbolic $3$--manifold fibering over a circle, the entropy of the pseudo-Anosov monodromy is bounded by the hyperbolic…
Motivated by the initial-boundary value problem for the Einstein equations, we propose a definition of symmetric hyperbolicity for systems of evolution equations that are first order in time but second order in space. This can be used to…
For general hyperbolic systems of conservation laws we show that dissipative weak solutions belonging to an appropriate Besov space $B^{\alpha,\infty}_q$ and satisfying a one-sided bound condition are unique within the class of dissipative…
Hyperbolic conservation laws are conventionally solved by evolving reconstructed floating-point fields, incurring both computational overhead and structural diffusion near discontinuities. Here we introduce the Fast Quantised Numerical…
We develop an Aleksandrov reflection framework for a large class of expanding curvature flows in hyperbolic space, with inverse mean curvature flow serving as a model case. The method applies to the level-set formulation of the flow. As a…
We develop a complete description of the class of conformal relativistic dissipative fluids of divergence form, following the formalism carried out by Geroch, Lindblom and Pennisi. This type of theories is fully described in terms of…
We apply the evolution method to present a new proof of the Alexandrov type theorem for constant anisotropic mean curvature hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$.
In this paper, we investigate some dynamical properties near a nonhyperbolic fixed point. Under some conditions on the higher nonlinear terms, we establish a stable manifold theorem and a degenerate Hartman theorem. Furthermore, the finite…
In this paper we derive a new first-order theory of relativistic dissipative fluids by adopting the trace-fixed particle frame. Whereas in a companion letter we show that this theory is hyperbolic, causal and stable at global equilibrium…
We present a formalism for Newtonian multi-fluid hydrodynamics derived from an unconstrained variational principle. This approach provides a natural way of obtaining the general equations of motion for a wide range of hydrodynamic systems…
We study the intrinsic geometry of area minimizing (and also of almost minimizing) hypersurfaces from a new point of view by relating this subject to quasiconformal geometry. For any such hypersurface we define and construct a so-called…
We investigate the well-posedness of scalar conservation laws whose flux depends on the solution both pointwise and nonlocally through integral averages. Our analysis is based on a fixed-point formulation, in which the nonlocal dependence…
