In the class of Sobolev vector fields in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of bounded divergence, for which the theory of DiPerna and Lions provides a well defined notion of flow, we characterize the vector fields whose flow commute in terms of the Lie…
It is known, after \cite{Jabin16} and \cite{AlbertiCrippaMazzucato18}, that ODE flows and solutions of the transport equation associated to Sobolev vector fields do not propagate Sobolev regularity, even of fractional order. In this paper,…
We prove some theorems on the existence, uniqueness, stability and compactness properties of solutions to inhomogeneous transport equations with Sobolev coefficients, where the inhomogeneous term depends upon the solution through an…
In this paper we extend the DiPerna-Lions theory on ODEs with Sobolev vector fields to the setting of abstract Wiener spaces.
We investigate under which assumptions the flow associated to autonomous planar vector fields inherits the Sobolev or BV regularity of the vector field. We consider nearly incompressible and divergence-free vector fields, taking advantage…
We show that vector fields $b$ whose spatial derivative $D_xb$ satisfies a Orlicz summability condition have a spatially continuous representative and are well-posed. For the case of sub-exponential summability, their flows satisfy a Lusin…
By establishing a characterization for Sobolev differentiability of random fields, we prove the weak differentiability of solutions to stochastic differential equations with local Sobolev and super-linear growth coefficients with respect to…

In this article we prove that stochastic differential equation (SDE) with Sobolev drift on compact Riemannian manifold admits a unique $\nu$-almost everywhere stochastic invertible flow, where $\nu$ is the Riemannian measure, which is…
We present a divergence free vector field in the Sobolev space $H^1$ such that the flow associated to the field does not belong to any Sobolev space. The vector field is deterministic but constructed as the realization of a random field…
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…
We face the well-posedness of linear transport Cauchy problems $$\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial u}{\partial t} + b\cdot\nabla u + c\,u = f&(0,T)\times{\mathbb R}^n\\u(0,\cdot)=u_0\in L^\infty&{\mathbb R}^n\end{cases}$$ under borderline…
We study the behaviour of various Lyapunov functionals (relative entropies) along the solutions of a family of nonlinear drift-diffusion-reaction equations coming from statistical mechanics and population dynamics. These equations can be…
This paper is part of a series of papers on differential geometry of $C^\infty$-ringed spaces. In this paper, we study vector fields and their flows on a class of singular spaces. Our class includes arbitrary subspaces of manifolds, as well…
In this paper, we revisit the notion of temporal intermittency to obtain sharp nonuniqueness results for linear transport equations. We construct divergence-free vector fields with sharp Sobolev regularity $L^1_t W^{1,p}$ for all $p<\infty$…
In this paper we provide a complete analogy between the Cauchy-Lipschitz and the DiPerna-Lions theories for ODE's, by developing a local version of the DiPerna-Lions theory. More precisely, we prove existence and uniqueness of a maximal…
In this work we deal with the selection problem of flows of an irregular vector field. We first summarize an example from \cite{CCS} of a vector field $b$ and a smooth approximation $b_\epsilon$ for which the sequence $X^\epsilon$ of flows…
We study the Cauchy problem for the advection-diffusion equation $\partial_t u + \mathrm{div} (u b ) = \Delta u$ associated with a merely integrable divergence-free vector field $b$ defined on the torus. We discuss existence, regularity and…
This paper investigates the well posedness of ordinary differential equations and more precisely the existence (or uniqueness) of a flow through explicit compactness estimates. Instead of assuming a bounded divergence condition on the…
