We show stabilisation of solutions to the sixth-order convective Cahn-Hilliard equation. {The problem} has the structure of a gradient flow perturbed by a quadratic destabilising term with coefficient $\delta>0$. Through application of an…
We are concerned with the nodal set of solutions to equations of the form \begin{equation*} -\Delta u = \lambda_+ \left(u^+\right)^{q-1} - \lambda_- \left(u^-\right)^{q-1} \quad \text{in $B_1$} \end{equation*} where $\lambda_+,\lambda_- >…
We prove a conjecture by De Giorgi on the elliptic regularization of semilinear wave equations in the finite-time case.
We prove existence and nonexistence results concerning elliptic problems whose basic model is \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \displaystyle-\Delta u+\mu(x)\frac{|\nabla u|^2}{(u+\delta)^\gamma}= \lambda u^p, &x\in \Omega, \\ u> 0, &x\in…
A classical result owing to Mancini and Sandeep [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. 7 (2008)] asserts that all positive solutions of the Poincar\'e-Sobolev equation on the hyperbolic space $$ -\Delta_{\mathbb{B}^n} u-\lambda u =…
Using theorems of Bangert, we prove a rigidity result which shows how a question raised by Bangert for elliptic integrands of Moser type is connected, in the case of minimal solutions without self-intersections, to a famous conjecture of De…
In this paper we study Liouville properties of smooth steady axially symmetric solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. First, we provide another version of the Liouville theorem of \cite{kpr15} in the case of zero swirl, where we replaced…
We consider a class of equations in divergence form with a singular/degenerate weight $$ -\mathrm{div}(|y|^a A(x,y)\nabla u)=|y|^a f(x,y)+\textrm{div}(|y|^aF(x,y))\;. $$ Under suitable regularity assumptions for the matrix $A$, the forcing…
In this paper the existence of solutions, $(\lambda,u)$, of the problem $$-\Delta u=\lambda u -a(x)|u|^{p-1}u \quad \hbox{in }\Omega, \qquad u=0 \quad \hbox{on}\;\;\partial\Omega,$$ is explored for $0 < p < 1$. When $p>1$, it is known that…
In this paper, we establish Liouville theorems for the following system of elliptic differential inequalities $$ \Delta_{\mathbb H}u^{m_1}+|\eta|_{\mathbb H}^{\gamma_1}|v|^p\leq0,$$ $$ \Delta_{\mathbb H}v^{m_2}+|\eta|_{\mathbb…
A linear different operator L is called weakly hypoelliptic if any local solution u of Lu=0 is smooth. We allow for systems, that is, the coefficients may be matrices, not necessarily of square size. This is a huge class of important…
We study axially symmetric $D$-solutions of three dimensional steady Navier-Stokes equations. We prove that if the velocity $u$ decays like $|x'|^{-(\frac{2}{3})^+}$ uniformly for $z$, or the vorticity $\omega$ decays like…
We consider here operators which are sum of (possibly) fractional derivatives, with (possibly different) order. The main constructive assumption is that the operator is of order~$2$ in one variable. By constructing an explicit barrier, we…
We study $\mathbf L^\infty$ entropy solutions to $2\times 2$ systems of conservation laws. We show that, if a uniformly convex entropy exists, these solutions satisfy a pair of kinetic equations (nonlocal in velocity), which are then shown…

We consider pointwise linear elliptic equations of the form $\mathrm{L}_x u_x = \eta_x$ on a smooth compact manifold where the operators $\mathrm{L}_x$ are in divergence form with real, bounded, measurable coefficients that vary in the…
We consider Liouville-type and partial regularity results for the nonlinear fourth-order problem $$ \Delta^2 u=|u|^{p-1}u\ \{in} \ \R^n,$$ where $ p>1$ and $n\ge1$. We give a complete classification of stable and finite Morse index…
Incompressible flows of an ideal two-dimensional fluid on a closed orientable surface of positive genus are considered. Linear stability of harmonic, i.e. irrotational and incompressible, solutions to the Euler equations is shown using the…
We consider the fractional elliptic inequality with variable-exponent nonlinearity $$ (-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}} u+\lambda\, \Delta u \geq |u|^{p(x)}, \quad x\in\mathbb{R}^N, $$ where $N\geq 1$, $\alpha\in (0,2)$, $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$…
We want to prove a Harnack type inequality for solutions of strongly degenerate parabolic, or elliptic-parabolic, equations. To do that, we first define a De Giorgi class of order $p = 2$ that contains the solutions of evolution equations…
