We discuss conjectural scaling limits of discrete 2-dimensional aggregation models conditioned on a semi-axis considered by Levine and Peres in arXiv:0712.3378. These are certain problems about Hele-Show flows. We study moment properties of…
In this paper, we study the sharp interface limit for solutions of the Cahn-Hilliard equation with disparate mobilities. This means that the mobility function degenerates in one of the two energetically favorable configurations, suppressing…
We consider the Cahn-Hilliard equation with Neumann boundary conditions in a three-dimensional curved thin domain around a given closed surface. When the thickness of the curved thin domain tends to zero, we show that the weighted average…

We propose a method of construction of exact solutions of free boundary problems corresponding to Hele-Shaw flows in presence of an external field. Such a field may arise, in particular, due to electrokinetic phenomena. Both a general…

We consider the Hele-Shaw flow that arises from injection of two-dimensional fluid into a point of a curved surface. The resulting fluid domains have and are more or less determined implicitly by a mean value property for harmonic…
We consider the relationship between Hele-Shaw evolution with drift, the porous medium equation with superharmonic drift, and a congested crowd motion model originally proposed by [MRS]- [MRSV]. We first use viscosity solutions to show that…
The main goal of this paper is to prove $L^1$-comparison and contraction principles for weak solutions (in the sense of distributions) of Hele-Shaw flow with a linear Drift. The flow is considered with a general reaction term including the…
When a viscous fluid partially fills a Hele--Shaw channel, and is pushed by a pressure difference, the fluid interface is unstable due to the Saffman--Taylor instability. We consider the evolution of a fluid region of finite extent, bounded…
We consider a Hele-Shaw model that describes tumor growth subject to nutrient supply. The model is derived by taking the incompressible limit of porous medium type equations, and the boundary instability of this model was recently studied…
We investigate a generalized Hele-Shaw equation with a source and drift terms where the density is constrained by an upper-bound density constraint that varies in space and time. By using a generalized porous medium equation approximation,…
We study the "stiff pressure limit" of a nonlinear drift-diffusion equation, where the density is constrained to stay below the maximal value one. The challenge lies in the presence of a drift and the consequent lack of monotonicity in…
We study the long-time behavior of an exterior Hele-Shaw problem in random media with a free boundary velocity that depends on position in dimensions $n \geq 2$. A natural rescaling of solutions that is compatible with the evolution of the…
In this paper, we demonstrate that potential theory provides a powerful framework for analyzing quasistationary fluid flows in bounded geometries, where the bulk dynamics are governed by elliptic equations with constant coefficients. This…

This paper is concerned with a rigorous convergence analysis of a fully discrete Lagrangian scheme for the Hele-Shaw flow, which is the fourth order thin-film equation with linear mobility in one space dimension. The discretization is based…
