We introduce an efficient route to obtaining the discrete potential mKdV equation emerging from a particular discrete motion of discrete planar curves.
We continue an analysis, started in [10], of some issues related to the incompressible Euler or Navier-Stokes (NS) equations on a d-dimensional torus T^d. More specifically, we consider the quadratic term in these equations; this arises…
In this article, we study the non-uniqueness of weak solutions for the two-dimensional hyper-dissipative Navier-Stokes equations in the super-critical spaces $L_{t}^{\gamma}W_{x}^{s,p}$ when $\alpha\in[1,\frac{3}{2})$, and obtain the…
Lie symmetries of a Novikov geometrically integrable equation are found and group-invariant solutions are obtained. Local conservation laws up to second order are established as well as their corresponding conserved quantities. Sufficient…

We connect certain continuous motions of discrete planar curves resulting in semi-discrete potential Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation with Darboux transformations of smooth planar curves. In doing so, we define infinitesimal Darboux…
In this paper we study the generalized Korteweg de Vries (KdV) equation with the nonlinear term of order three: $(u^{3+1})_x$. We prove sharp local well--posedness for the initial and boundary value problem posed on the right half line. We…
We obtain sharp volume bounds on the boundaries of Alexandrov spaces with given lower curvature bound, dimension, and radius. We also completely classify the rigidity case and analyze almost rigidity. Our results are new even for smooth…

We prove that $L^2$ weak solutions to hypoelliptic equations with bounded measurable coefficients are H\"older continuous. The proof relies on classical techniques developed by De Giorgi and Moser together with the averaging lemma and…
Let $\phi : S^1\times D^2\to S^1$ be the natural projection. An oriented knot $K\hookrightarrow V = S^1\times D^2$ is called an almost closed braid if the restriction of $\phi$ to K has exactly two (non-degenerate) critical points (and K is…
Sharp affine Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequalities for functions on $\mathbb R^n$ are established, which are significantly stronger than (and directly imply) the sharp Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequalities by Lieb and by Beckner, Dou,…
In this paper we study weak continuity of the dynamical systems for the KdV equation in H^{-3/4}(R) and the modified KdV equation in H^{1/4}(R). This topic should have significant applications in the study of other properties of these…
We establish global well-posedness for both the defocusing and focusing complex-valued modified Korteweg--de Vries equations on the real line in modulation spaces $M_p^{s,2}(\mathbb{R})$, for all $1\leq p<\infty$ and $0\leq s<3/2-1/p$. We…
We prove a version of wellposedness for all equations of the KdV hierarchy in $H^{-1}$. Ingredients are 1) The Miura map which allows to define the Gardner hierarchy through the generating function of the energies so that the $N$th Gardner…
In this paper, we consider the 2D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on the torus. It is well known that for any $L^2$ divergence-free initial data, there exists a global smooth solution that is unique in the class of $C_t L^2$ weak…

Riemannian cubics in tension are critical points of the linear combination of two objective functionals, namely the squared norms of the velocity and acceleration of a curve on a Riemannian manifold. We view this variational problem of…
We prove the two theorems of the title, settling two long standing questions in the local theory of singular minimal hypersurfaces. The sharpness of either result is with respect to its hypothesis on the size of the allowable singular sets.…
