We consider weak solutions to the incompressible Euler equations. It is shown that energy conservation holds in any Onsager critical class in which smooth functions are dense. The argument is independent of the specific critical regularity…

We consider conservation laws on moving hypersurfaces. In this work the velocity of the surface is prescribed. But one may think of the velocity to be given by PDEs in the bulk phase. We prove existence and uniqueness for a scalar…

We study how oscillations of a scalar field condensate are damped due to dissipative effects in a thermal medium. Our starting point is a non-linear and non-local condensate equation of motion descending from a 2PI-resummed effective action…

[Note: Currently the proof is incomplete as we are using the lemma 3.2 which is not true in general]. We offer a complete resolution of a conjecture by Lions-Perthame-Tadmor mentioned in their celebrated work (1994, [34]). We prove the…
