We are concerned with the theory of existence and uniqueness of flows generated by divergence free vector fields with compact support. Hence, assuming that the velocity vector fields are measurable, bounded, and the flows in the Euclidean…
The vortex-wave system is a model for the evolution of 2D incompressible fluids in which the vorticity is split into a finite sum of Dirac masses plus an Lp part. Existence of a weak solution for this system was recently proved by Lopes…
It is known that volume hyperbolicity (partial hyperbolicity and uniform expansion or contraction of the volume in the extremal bundles) is a necessary condition for robust transitivity or robust chain recurrence hence for tameness. In this…
In a recent paper, Liu, Zhu and Wu (2015, {\it J. Fluid Mech.} {\bf 784}: 304) present a force theory for a body in a two-dimensional, viscous, compressible and steady flow. In this companion paper we do the same for three-dimensional flow.…
It is known that sectional-hyperbolic attracting sets, for a $C^2$ flow on a finite dimensional compact manifold, have at most finitely many ergodic physical invariant probability measures. We prove an upper bound for the number of distinct…
We investigate the long-term behavior, as a certain regularization parameter vanishes, of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes-Voigt model of a viscoelastic incompressible fluid. We prove the existence of global and exponential attractors of…
In this paper we investigate the attractor mechanism in the five dimensional low energy supergravity theory corresponding to M-theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold $CY_3$. Using very special geometry, we derive the general…
We prove a result allowing to build (transitive or non-transitive) Anosov flows on 3-manifolds by gluing together filtrating neighborhoods of hyperbolic sets. We give several applications; for example: 1. we build a 3-manifold supporting…
Singular hyperbolicity is a weakened form of hyperbolicity that has been introduced for vector fields in order to allow non-isolated singularities inside the non-wandering set. A typical example of a singular hyperbolic set is the Lorenz…
We describe scenarios for the emergence of Shilnikov attractors, i.e. strange attractors containing a saddle-focus with two-dimensional unstable manifold, in the case of three-dimensional flows and maps. The presented results are…
We study geometrical and dynamical properties of the so-called discrete Lorenz-like attractors, that can be observed in three-dimensional diffeomorphisms. We propose new phenomenological scenarios of their appearance in one parameter…
We present a comprehensive mechanism for the emergence of rotational horseshoes and strange attractors in a class of two-parameter families of periodically-perturbed differential equations defining a flow on a three-dimensional manifold.…
We study the spectral theory and the resolvent of the vector field generating the frame flow of closed hyperbolic 3-dimensional manifolds on some family of anisotropic Sobolev spaces. We show the existence of a spectral gap and prove…
We investigate the behavior of flows, including turbulent flows, driven by a horizontal body-force and subject to a vertical magnetic field, with the following question in mind: for very strong applied magnetic field, is the flow mostly…
We consider a two-dimensional nonstationary Navier-Stokes shear flow with a subdifferential boundary condition on a part of the boundary of the flow domain, namely, with a boundary driving subject to the Tresca law. There exists a unique…
In this note, we combine the work of Ilmanen and of Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi to observe a uniqueness property for tangent flows at the first singular time of a smooth mean curvature flow of a closed surface in 3-dimensional Euclidean…
In this paper, we make several contributions to the theory of asymptotically sectional-hyperbolic (ASH) flows. First, we prove that every star ASH attractor for a $C^2$ vector field is, in fact, sectional-hyperbolic (SH). Second, we…
We prove that the set of diffeomorphisms having at most finitely many attractors contains a dense and open subset of the space of $C^1$ partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with one-dimensional center. This is obtained thanks to a robust…
We consider two-dimensional nonstationary Navier-Stokes shear flow with multivalued and nonmonotone boundary conditions on a part of the boundary of the flow domain. We prove the existence of global in time solutions of the considered…
A survey of new geometric flows motivated by string theories is provided. Their settings can range from complex geometry to almost-complex geometry to symplectic geometry. From the PDE viewpoint, many of them can be viewed as intermediate…
