The Muskat problem models the dynamics of the interface between two incompressible immiscible fluids with different constant densities. In this work we prove three results. First we prove an $L^2(\R)$ maximum principle, in the form of a new…

We prove the existence of global, smooth solutions to the 2D Muskat problem in the stable regime whenever the product of the maximal and minimal slopes is strictly less than 1. The curvature of these solutions solutions decays to 0 as $t$…

We prove a global well-posedness result for the 2D Muskat problem with surface tension. Given any regular enough initial data which is small in some critical space but possibly large in Lipschitz, we prove that the associated Cauchy problem…

We show that for any fixed Lipschitz constant $L$, there is a time $T^*<\infty$ depending only on $L$ such that if $f:[0,T^*]\times \mathbb{R}^{2}\to [0,1]$ is a classical solution of the stable Muskat problem with $||\nabla_x…

This paper considers the three dimensional Muskat problem in the stable regime. We obtain a conservation law which provides an $L^2$ maximum principle for the fluid interface. We also show global in time existence for strong and weak…

We prove that the 3D stable Muskat problem is globally well-posed in the critical Sobolev space $\dot H^2 \cap \dot W^{1,\infty}$ provided that the semi-norm $\Vert f_0 \Vert_{\dot H^{2}}$ is small enough. Consequently, this allows the…

We prove a global existence result of a unique strong solution in $\dot H^{5/2} \cap \dot H^{3/2}$ with small $\dot H^{3/2}$ semi-norm for the 2D Muskat problem, hence allowing the interface to have arbitrary large finite slopes and finite…
