We provide general sufficient conditions for branching out of a time-periodic family of solutions from steady-state solutions to the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the exterior of a cylinder. To this end, we first show that the…

We show an abstract time-periodic bifurcation theorem in Banach spaces. The key point as well as the novelty of the method is to split the original evolution equation into two different coupled equations, one for the time-average of the…
Motivated by the initial-boundary value problem for the Einstein equations, we propose a definition of symmetric hyperbolicity for systems of evolution equations that are first order in time but second order in space. This can be used to…
A phenomenological two-fluid model of the (time-reversible) spectrally-truncated 3D Euler equation is proposed. The thermalized small scales are first shown to be quasi-normal. The effective viscosity and thermal diffusion are then…

We study the Cauchy problem for the Laplace equation in a cylindrical domain with data on a part of it's boundary which is a cross-section of the cylinder. On reducing the problem to the Cauchy problem for the wave equation in a complex…

This paper investigates curve flows on the light-cone in the 3-dimensional Minkowski space. We derive the Harnack inequality for the heat flow and present a detailed classification of space-periodic solitons for a third-order curvature…
This paper aims to reconstruct the initial condition of a hyperbolic equation with an unknown damping coefficient. Our approach involves approximating the hyperbolic equation's solution by its truncated Fourier expansion in the time domain…
Developing an original idea of De Giorgi, we introduce a new and purely variational approach to the Cauchy Problem for a wide class of defocusing hyperbolic equations. The main novel feature is that the solutions are obtained as limits of…
In this article, we consider linear hyperbolic Initial and Boundary Value Problems (IBVP) in a rectangle (or possibly curvilinear polygonal domains) in both the constant and variable coefficients cases. We use semigroup method instead of…
Some sharp two-sided Tur\'an type inequalities for parabolic cylinder functions and Tricomi confluent hypergeometric functions are deduced. The proofs are based on integral representations for quotients of parabolic cylinder functions and…

In this short note, we study the local well-posedness of a 3D model for incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with partial viscosity. This model was originally proposed by Hou-Lei in \cite{HouLei09a}. In a recent paper, we prove that this…
