We provide a unified viewpoint on two illposedness mechanisms for dispersive equations in one spatial dimension, namely degenerate dispersion and (the failure of) the Takeuchi--Mizohata condition. Our approach is based on a robust energy-…

These notes are devoted to the notion of well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for nonlinear dispersive equations. We present recent methods for proving ill-posedness type results for dispersive PDE's. The common feature in the analysis is…

The Cauchy problem for the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-II equation (u_t+u_{xxx}+uu_x)_x+u_{yy}=0 is considered. A small data global well-posedness and scattering result in the scale invariant, non-isotropic, homogeneous Sobolev space \dot…

In this note, using the ideas from our recent article \cite{EM}, we prove strong ill-posedness for the 2D Euler equations in $C^k$ spaces. This note provides a significantly shorter proof of many of the main results in \cite{BLi2}. In the…

We show that the $ L^2({\mathbb R}) $-unconditional well-posedness, that is well-known for the KdV equation, is shared by KdV type equations with weaker dispersion. This is despite the difference in the nature of these equations, which are…

Building on results developed in https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2404.14902, where It\^{o}-SDEs with possibly degenerate and discontinuous dispersion coefficient and measurable drift were analyzed with respect to a given (sub-)invariant…

In this paper, we establish the well-posedness of Cauchy problems for weak solutions to second-order degenerate parabolic equations with a non-smooth, time-dependent degenerate elliptic part that includes both bounded and unbounded…

Given sufficiently regular data \textit{without} decay assumptions at infinity, we prove local well-posedness for non-linear dispersive equations of the form \[ \partial_t u + \mathsf A(\nabla) u + \mathcal Q(|u|^2) \cdot \nabla u= \mathcal…

We complete the known results on the local Cauchy problem in Sobolev spaces for the KdV-Burgers equation by proving that this equation is well-posed in $ H^{-1}(\R) $ with a solution-map that is analytic from $H^{-1}(\R) $ to…

We consider the degenerate parabolic equation $$ \partial_t u +\mathrm{div} {\mathfrak f}_{\bf x}(u)=\mathrm{div}(\mathrm{div} ( A_{\bf x}(u) ) ), \ \ {\bf x} \in M, \ \ t\geq 0 $$ on a smooth, compact, $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold…

We prove local well-posedness of partially periodic and periodic modified KP-I equations, namely for $\partial_t u+(-1)^{\frac{l+1}{2}}\partial^l_x u-\partial_x^{-1}\partial_y^2 u+u^2\partial_x u=0$ in the anisotropic Sobolev space…

We establish that the quadratic non-linear Schr\"odinger equation $$ iu_t + u_{xx} = u^2$$ where $u: \R \times \R \to \C$, is locally well-posed in $H^s(\R)$ when $s \geq -1$ and ill-posed when $s < -1$. Previous work of Kenig, Ponce and…

We study the Cauchy problem for the dissipative Benjamin-Ono equations $u_t+\H u_{xx}+|D|^\alpha u+uu_x=0$ with $0\leq\alpha\leq 2$. When $0\leq\alpha< 1$, we show the ill-posedness in $H^s(\R)$, $s\in\R$, in the sense that the flow map…
