We numerically determine the entropy for heat-conducting states, which is connected to the so-called excess heat considered as a basic quantity for steady-state thermodynamics in nonequilibrium. We adopt an efficient method to estimate the…
We study the evolution of Tsallis entropy along the heat flow and establish its concavity in arbitrary dimensions. Extending prior results that were restricted to the one-dimensional setting, we prove that the Tsallis entropy is concave in…
We present a unified description of temperature and entropy in spaces with either "true" or "accelerated observer" horizons: In their (higher dimensional) global embedding Minkowski geometries, the relevant detectors have constant…
We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show…

We develop different synthetic notions of Ricci flow in the setting of time-dependent metric measure spaces based on ideas from optimal transport. They are formulated in terms of dynamic convexity and local concavity of the entropy along…
Due to the highly degeneracy and singularities of the entropy equation, the physical entropy for viscous and heat conductive polytropic gases behave singularly in the presence of vacuum and it is thus a challenge to study its dynamics. It…
We lay down a geometric-analytic framework to capture properties of energy dissipation within weak solutions to the incompressible Euler equations. For solutions with spatial Besov regularity, it is proved that the Duchon-Robert…
In this paper we consider a ``flow'' of nonparametric solutions of the volume constrained Plateau problem with respect to a convex planar curve. Existence and regularity is obtained from standard elliptic theory, and convexity results for…

Using recent work of Bourgain-Dyatlov we show that for any convex co-compact hyperbolic surface Strichartz estimates for the Schr\"odinger equation hold with an arbitrarily small loss of regularity.
This paper is devoted to sharp interpolation inequalities on the sphere and their proof using flows. The method explains some rigidity results and proves uniqueness in related semilinear elliptic equations. Nonlinear flows allow to cover…
Onsager's conjecture, which relates the conservation of energy to the regularity of weak solutions of the Euler equations, was completely resolved in recent years. In this work, we pursue an analogue of Onsager's conjecture in the context…
This paper is concerned with entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws of the form $\partial_{t}u+\diver f=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^d\times(0,\infty)$. The flux $f=f(x,u)$ depends explicitly on the spatial variable $x$. Using an extension of…
