The Muskat problem, in its general setting, concerns the interface evolution between two incompressible fluids of different densities and viscosities in porous media. The interface motion is driven by gravity and capillarity forces, where…

In this paper, we study the dynamics of a two-dimensional viscous fluid evolving through a porous medium or a Hele-Shaw cell, driven by gravity and surface tension. A key feature of this study is that the fluid is confined within a vessel…

We consider the one-phase Muskat problem modeling the dynamics of the free boundary of a single fluid in porous media. We prove local well-posedness for fluid interfaces that are general curves and can have singularities. In particular, the…
