In this paper, we proved the well-posedness theory of compressible subsonic jet flows for two-dimensional steady Euler system with {\it general} incoming horizontal velocity as long as the flux is larger than a critical value. One of the…
We consider a planar geometric flow in which the normal velocity is a nonlocal variant of the curvature. The flow is not scaling invariant and in fact has different behaviors at different spatial scales, thus producing phenomena that are…
The Hodge star mean curvature flow on a 3-dimensional Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold is a natural nonlinear dispersive curve flow in geometric analysis. A curve flow is integrable if the local differential invariants of a solution…

Axisymmetric direct numerical simulations are carried out to study the hydrodynamics of a laminar, stationary, incompressible, Newtonian, single-phase flow in an Annular Plane Couette (APC) channel. This configuration is that of a Straight…
We investigate for the first time the curve shortening flow in the metric-affine plane and prove that under simple geometric condition it shrinks a closed convex curve to a "round point" in finite time. This generalizes the classical result…
We consider the 1-harmonic flow of maps from a bounded domain into a submanifold of a Euclidean space, i.e. the gradient flow of the total variation functional restricted to maps taking values in the manifold. We restrict ourselves to…
