The seminal work of DiPerna and Lions [Invent. Math., 98, 1989] guarantees the existence and uniqueness of regular Lagrangian flows for Sobolev vector fields. The latter is a suitable selection of trajectories of the related ODE satisfying…
This article studies the Cauchy problem for the Boltzmann equation with stochastic kinetic transport. Under a cut-off assumption on the collision kernel and a coloring hypothesis for the noise coefficients, we prove the global existence of…
Co-moving volumes and Reynolds transport theorem along a fluid flow are fundamental tools to derive balance laws in fluid mechanics, where the classical theory on flow maps of ODEs associated to smooth vector fields plays a central role.…
We investigate transport equations associated to a Lipschitz field on some subspace of $\mathbb{R}^N$ endowedwith a general measure $\mu$ in $L^{p}$-spaces $1 < p <\infty$, extending the results obtained in two previous contributions of the…
We provide an asymptotic analysis of linear transport problems in the diffusion limit under minimal regularity assumptions on the domain, the coefficients, and the data. The weak form of the limit equation is derived and the convergence of…
According to DiPerna-Lions theory, velocity fields with weak derivatives in $L^p$ spaces possess weakly regular flows. When a velocity field is perturbed by a white noise, the corresponding (stochastic) flow is far more regular in spatial…
We consider $L^\infty_t L^p_x$ solutions of the stochastic transport equation with drift in $L^\infty_t W^{1,q}_x$. We show strong existence and pathwise uniqueness of solutions in a regime of parameters $p,q$ for which non-unique weak…
This paper establishes new applications of the Christ-Journ\'e singular integral estimate to the transport equation for divergence-free vector fields in the Sobolev class $W^{1,p}$ with $p>1$. Our main result is a stability estimate for the…
Let $p\ge 1$ and let $\boldsymbol{v} \colon \mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R^d$ be a compactly supported vector field with $\boldsymbol{v} \in L^p(\mathbb R^d)$ and $\operatorname{div} \boldsymbol{v} = 0$ (in the sense of distributions). It was…
Given a divergence-free vector field ${\bf u} \in L^\infty_t W^{1,p}_x(\mathbb R^d)$ and a nonnegative initial datum $\rho_0 \in L^r$, the celebrated DiPerna--Lions theory established the uniqueness of the weak solution in the class of…
We reexamine the derivation of relativistic transport equations for fermions when conserving the most general spinor structure of the interaction and Green function. Such an extension of the formalism is needed when dealing with {\it e.g.}…
We construct a set of bounded vector fields dense in $L^p((0,2);W^{s,p}_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2;\mathbb{R}^2))$ for $1\leq p <+\infty$ and $0\leq s<1$ with $p<1/s$ for which smooth regularisation of the vector field does not give a selection…
We study in this article the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a class of stochastic transport equations with irregular coefficients. Asking only boundedness of the divergence of the coefficients (a classical condition in both the…
We prove that for bounded, divergence-free vector fields in $L^1_{loc}((0,+\infty);BV_{loc}(R^d;R^d))$, regularisation by convolution of the vector field selects a single solution of the transport equation for any integrable initial datum.…
In this paper, we want to establish some general results in the Lorentzian optimal transport theory that have well-known Riemannian counterparts. As a first result, we will provide non-trivial assumptions on the measures to ensure strong…
We provide conditions under which we prove for measure-valued transport equations with non-linear reaction term in the space of finite signed Radon measures, that positivity is preserved, as well as absolute continuity with respect to…
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 draw on the ideas of [5] to extend the standard Serrin criterion [17] to an anisotropic version thereof. Because we work on weak solutions instead of strong ones, the functions involved have low regularity. Our method…
We consider weak solutions to a class of Dirichlet boundary value problems invloving the $p$-Laplace operator, and prove that the second weak derivatives are in $L^{q}$ with $q$ as large as it is desirable, provided $p$ is sufficiently…
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…
