The backward uniqueness of the Kolmogorov operator $L=\sum_{i,k=1}^n\partial_{x_i}(a_{i,k}(x,t)\partial_{x_k})+\sum_{l=1}^m x_l\partial_{y_l}-\partial_t$, was proved in this paper. We obtained a weak Carleman inequality via Littlewood-Paley…

It is well-known since the work of Pardoux and Peng [12] that Backward Stochastic Differential Equations provide probabilistic formulae for the solution of (systems of) second order elliptic and parabolic equations, thus providing an…

We derive the existence and uniqueness of the generalized backward doubly stochastic differential equation with sub-differential of a lower semi-continuous convex function under a non Lipschitz condition. This study allows us give a…

We establish $L^2$ boundedness of all "nice" parabolic singular integrals on "Good Parabolic Graphs", aka {\em regular} Lip(1,1/2) graphs. The novelty here is that we include non-homogeneous kernels, which are relevant to the theory of…

In this paper we prove an energy estimate with no loss of derivatives for a strictly hyperbolic operator with Zygmund continuous second order coefficients both in time and in space. In particular, this estimate implies the well-posedness…

In this paper we will study the Cauchy problem for strictly hyperbolic operators with low regularity coefficients in any space dimension $N\geq1$. We will suppose the coefficients to be log-Zygmund continuous in time and log-Lipschitz…

In a recent paper, Soner, Touzi and Zhang [20] have introduced a notion of second order backward stochastic differential equations (2BSDEs for short), which are naturally linked to a class of fully non-linear PDEs. They proved existence and…

This paper is concerned with an inverse boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation over a bounded domain. The aim is to reconstruct two constant coefficients together with the location and shape of a Dirichlet polygonal obstacle from…

We investigate the effect of frequency on the principal eigenvalue of a time-periodic parabolic operator with Dirichlet, Robin or Neumann boundary conditions. The monotonicity and asymptotic behaviors of the principal eigenvalue with…

We introduce the notion of joint torsion for several commuting operators satisfying a Fredholm condition. This new secondary invariant takes values in the group of invertibles of a field. It is constructed by comparing determinants…

This is a chapter from PhD Thesis by Stefano Biagi (advisor: prof. A. Bonfiglioli). We overview existing results showing that it is possible to generalize the classical Hardy's Inequality to more general linear partial differential…

We study Cauchy problems associated to elliptic operators acting on vector-valued functions and coupled up to the first-order. We prove pointwise estimates for the spatial derivatives of the semigroup associated to these problems in the…

We establish sharp global regularity results for solutions to nonhomogeneous, nonunifomrly elliptic systems with zero boundary conditions. In particular, we obtain everywhere Lipschitz continuity under borderline Lorentz assumptions on the…

We study the behaviour of solutions to a class of nonlinear degenerate parabolic problems when the data are perturbed. The class includes the Richards equation, Stefan problem and the parabolic $p$-Laplace equation. We show that, up to a…

We prove the parabolic boundary Harnack inequality in parabolic flat Lipschitz domains by blow-up techniques, allowing for the first time a non-zero right-hand side. Our method allows us to treat solutions to equations driven by…

The Hopf Lemma for second order elliptic operators is proved to hold in domains with $C^{1,\alpha}$, and even less regular, boundaries. It need not hold for $C^1$ boundaries. Corresponding results are proved for second order parabolic…

We prove backward uniqueness for a class of ultraparabolic operators with coupled linear drift. The main difficulty is that the Fourier transform in the degenerate variables turns the coupled drift into a transport operator in the dual…
