We provide some counterexamples concerning the uniqueness and regularity of weak solutions to the initial-boundary value problem for gradient flows of certain strongly polyconvex functionals by showing that such a problem can possess a…

Even in spaces of formal power series is required a topology in order to legitimate some operations, in particular to compute infinite summations. Many topologies can be exploited for different purposes. Combinatorists and algebraists may…

The notion of weak cyclic monotonicity of set-valued maps generalizing the cyclic monotonicity is introduced. The existence of solutions of differential inclusions with compact, upper semi-continuous, not necessarily convex right-hand sides…

A weakly complete space is a complex space admitting a (smooth) plurisubharmonic exhaustion function. In this paper, we classify those weakly complete complex surfaces for which such exhaustion function can be chosen real analytic: they can…

In the past decades, weak convergence theory for stochastic processes has become a standard tool for analyzing the asymptotic properties of various statistics. Routinely, weak convergence is considered in the space of bounded functions…

Each continuous weak selection for a space $X$ defines a coarser topology on $X$, called a selection topology. Spaces whose topology is determined by a collection of such selection topologies are called continuous weak selection spaces. For…

The equations of stationary compressible flows of active liquid crystals are considered in a bounded three-dimensional domain. The system consists of the stationary Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the equation of Q-tensors and the…

A fundamental open question asking whether all real-valued strongly quasiconvex functions defined on $\mathbb R^n$ are necessarily continuous, akin to their convex counterparts, is answered in detail in this paper. Among other things, we…

We introduce a canonical, compact topology, which we call weakly causal, naturally generated by the causal site of J. D. Christensen and L. Crane, a pointless algebraic structure motivated by certain problems of quantum gravity. We show…

The existence of weak solutions to the stationary Navier-Stokes equations in the whole plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ is proven. This particular geometry was the only case left open since the work of Leray in 1933. The reason is that due to the…

The aim of the present paper is to define a notion of weakly differentiable cochain in the generality of metric measure spaces and to study basic properties of such cochains. Our cochains are (sub-)linear functionals on a subspace of…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable Banach spaces. Suppose $Y$ either has a shrinking basis or $Y$ is isomorphic to $C(2^\mathbb{N})$ and $A$ is a subset of weakly compact operators from $X$ to $Y$ which is analytic in the strong operator…
