It is known that an elliptic system $\{P_j(x,D)\}_1^N$ of order $l$ is weakly coercive in $\overset{\circ}{W}\rule{0pt}{2mm}^l_\infty(\mathbb R^n)$, that is, all differential monomials of order $\le l-1$ on $C_0^\infty(\mathbb…
We consider quasilinear elliptic systems in divergence form. In general, we cannot expect that weak solutions are locally bounded because of De Giorgi's counterexample. Here we assume a condition on the support of off-diagonal coefficients…
In this paper we study the modulus of continuity of weak solutions to a singular elliptic equation in the plane under very weak assumption on the integrability of the elliptic coefficients. Our investigation reveals that the modulus of…

We establish a consistency result by comparing two independent notions of generalised solutions to a large class of linear hyperbolic first order PDE systems with constant coefficients, showing that they eventually coincide. The first is…

A general class of strongly coupled elliptic systems with quadratic growth in gradients is considered and the existence of their strong solutions is established. The results greatly improve those in a recent paper \cite{dleJFA} as the…
This article establishes a discrete maximum principle (DMP) for the approximate solution of convection-diffusion-reaction problems obtained from the weak Galerkin finite element method on nonuniform rectangular partitions. The DMP analysis…
Extremal principles can generally be divided into two rather distinct classes. There are, on the one hand side, formulations based on the Lagrangian or Hamiltonian mechanics, respectively, dealing with time dependent problems, but…
We consider a class of fourth order elliptic systems which include the Euler-Lagrange equations of biharmonic mappings in dimension 4 and we prove that weak limit of weak solutions to such systems is again a weak solution to a limit system.
In this paper, we show that $W^{1,p}$ $(1\leq p<\infty)$ weak solutions to divergence form elliptic systems are Lipschitz and piecewise $C^{1}$ provided that the leading coefficients and data are of piecewise Dini mean oscillation, the…
This paper concerns with mesh restrictions that are needed to satisfy several important mathematical properties -- maximum principles, comparison principles, and the non-negative constraint -- for a general linear second-order elliptic…
We prove a maximal-type large deviation principle for dynamical systems with arbitrarily slow polynomial mixing rates. Also several applications, particularly to billiard systems, are presented.
In this paper, we establish the pointwise upper and lower bounds of the gradients of solutions to a class of elliptic systems, including linear systems of elasticity, in a general narrow region and in all dimensions. This problem arises…
Bounded weak solutions to a particular class of degenerate parabolic cross-diffusion systems are shown to coincide with the unique strong solution determined by the same initial condition on the maximal existence interval of the latter. The…
We establish the existence of weak solutions of coupled systems of elliptic partial differential equations with quasimonotone nonlinearities in the domain interior and on the boundary. When the nonlinearities satisfy some monotonicity…
We consider here an elliptic coupled system describing the dynamics of liquid crystals flows. This system is posed on the whole n-dimensional space. We introduce first the notion of very weak solutions for this system. Then, within the…
We show that any dissipative (measure-valued) solution of the compressible Euler system that complies with Dafermos' criterion of maximal dissipation is necessarily an admissible weak solution. In addition, we propose a simple, at most two…
