In this article, we apply the viscosity solutions theory for integro-differential equations to the \emph{one-phase} Muskat equation (also known as the Hele-Shaw problem with gravity). We prove global well-posedness for the corresponding…

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…

We study the Muskat problem for one fluid or two fluids, with or without viscosity jump, with or without rigid boundaries, and in arbitrary space dimension $d$ of the interface. The Muskat problem is scaling invariant in the Sobolev space…
