Given $0<s<\frac d2$ with $s\leq 1$, we are interested in the large $N$-behavior of the optimal constant $\kappa_N$ in the Hardy inequality $\sum_{n=1}^N (-\Delta_n)^s \geq \kappa_N \sum_{n<m} |X_n-X_m|^{-2s}$, when restricted to…

Advances in the variational approach to the $n$-body problem have led to significant progress in celestial mechanics, uncovering new types of possible orbits. In this paper, critical points of the Lagrangian action associated with the…

A common paradigm in phase-field models with singular potentials is that global-in-time weak solutions converge to a single equilibrium only after undergoing asymptotic regularization. However, in arXiv:2510.17296 we introduced a novel…

We consider the following evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation with initial condition: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \partial_tu(x,t)+H(x,u(x,t),\partial_xu(x,t))=0,\\ u(x,0)=\phi(x), \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $\phi(x)\in…

We consider the Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ subject to the initial condition with initial velocity field in $L^{2}_{\rm loc} (\mathbb{R}^3)$ such that $\limsup_{R \to +\infty } R^{-1} \|u_{0} \|_{ L^{2}(B(R))} < +\infty$. Our…

We present a lower bound for the free energy of a quantum many-body system at finite temperature. This lower bound is expressed as a convex optimization problem with linear constraints, and is derived using strong subadditivity of von…

We prove a homogenization result for a family of time-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi equations, rescaled by a parameter $\varepsilon$ tending to zero, posed on a periodic network, with a suitable notion of periodicity that will be defined. As…

We investigate the domain of coupling constants which achieve binding for a 3-body system, while none of the 2-body subsystems is bound. We derive some general properties of the shape of the domain, and rigorous upper bounds on its size,…

The classical and relativistic Hamilton-Jacobi approach is applied to the one-dimensional homogeneous potential, $V(q)=\alpha q^n$, where $\alpha$ and $n$ are continuously varying parameters. In the non-relativistic case, the exact…

We consider a viscoelastic body occupying a smooth bounded domain of $R^3$ under the effects of volumic traction forces. Inertial effects are considered: hence, the equation describing the evolution of displacements is of the second order…

The simplest solutions of the N-body problem --symmetric relative equilibria-- are shown to be organizing centers from which stem some recently studied classes of periodic solutions. We focus on the relative equilibrium of the equal-mass…

We study the Cahn-Hilliard equation with non-degenerate concentration-dependent mobility and logarithmic potential in two dimensions. We show that any weak solution is unique, exhibits propagation of uniform-in-time regularity, and…
