A large population limit of the parabolic-parabolic Patlak-Keller-Segel (PKS) system with degenerate, nonlinear diffusion, e.g., of porous medium-type $-\frac{m}{m-1}\mathrm{div}(\rho \nabla \rho^{m-1})$, is studied. We show,…

In this paper, we discuss a particular model arising from sinking of a rigid solid into a thin film of fluid, i.e. a fluid contained between two solid surfaces and part of the fluid surface is in contact with the air. The fluid is governed…

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for pressureless gases in two space dimensions with generic smooth initial data (density and velocity). These equations give rise to singular curves, where the mass has positive density…

We study $C^1$ blow-up of the compressible fluid model introduced by Gardner and Morikawa, which describes the dynamics of a magnetized cold plasma. We propose sufficient conditions that lead to $C^1$ blow-up. In particular, we find that…

We prove that for large enough data, the life span of smooth solutions to the Cauchy problem for the following two quasilinear hyperbolic systems is finite: (1) equations of relativistic compressible fluid dynamics, (2) equations of plasma…
