In this paper we prove three different Liouville type theorems for the steady Navier-Stokes equations in $\Bbb R^3$. In the first theorem we improve logarithmically the well-known $L^{\frac92} (\Bbb R^3)$ result. In the second theorem we…

In this paper we prove Liouville type theorem for the stationary Navier-Stokes equations in $\Bbb R^3$ under the assumptions on the relative decays of velocity, pressure and the head pressure. More precisely, we show that any smooth…

We prove that any nonnegative viscosity solution of the inequality $$(-\Delta_p)^s u(x) \geq u^{t} |\nabla u|^{m}\quad \text{ in }\; \mathbb{R}^N,\; N\geq 2,$$ must be constant. This result holds for parameters $p\in (1, \infty), s\in (0,…

We establish a Liouville theorem for bounded mild ancient solutions to the axi-symmetric incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on $(-\infty, 0] \times (\mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{T}^1)$. This is a step forward to completely solve the…

Given a smooth function $K(x)$ satisfying a polynomially cone condition and $x\cdot\nabla K\leq 0$, we prove that there is no solution $u\in C^\infty(\mathbb{R}^2)$ of the equation $$-\Delta u=K(x)e^{2u}\quad \mathrm{on}\;\mathbb{R}^2$$…

In this paper we study the Liouville-type properties for solutions to the steady incompressible Euler equations with forces in $\Bbb R^N$. If we assume "single signedness condition" on the force, then we can show that a $C^1 (\Bbb R^N)$…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in the unit ball $B(0,1) \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 3$, such that $u(0)=0$. Nadirashvili conjectured that there exists a positive constant $c$, depending on the dimension $n$ only, such that $H^{n-1}(\{u=0…

For fixed positive integer $n$, $p\in[0,1]$, $a\in(0,1)$, we prove that if a function $g:\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\to \mathbb{R}$ is sufficiently close to 1, in the $C^a$ sense, then there exists a unique convex body $K$ whose $L_p$ curvature…

Consider a piecewise affine Lipschitz map $\phi : \Omega \to \mathbb R$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ is an open set, and assume that $x \mapsto x + t \nabla \phi(x)$ is injective for almost every $t > 0$. In (J.-G. Liu, R.~L. Pego,…

We prove Liouville type of theorems for weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes and the Euler equations. In particular, if the pressure satisfies $ p\in L^1 (0,T; L^1 (\Bbb R^N))$ with $\int_{\Bbb R^N} p(x,t)dx \geq 0$, then the corresponding…

There is $c_{} > 0$ such that for all $f \in C[0,\pi]$ with at most $d-1$ roots inside $(0,\pi)$ $$ \sum_{1 \leq n \leq d}{ \left| \left\langle f, \sin\left( n x\right) \right\rangle \right|} \geq \kappa^{-\kappa^2 \log{\kappa}}\|f\|_{L^2}…

In this work, we prove a critical version of a Hardy-Rellich type inequality. We show that for $N\geq 1$ there exists a constant $C_N>0$ such that \[ \int_{\mathbb R^N}\left|\nabla\left(\frac{u(x)}{|x|}\right)\right|^N\,\mathrm{d}x\leq…

Let $X=\{x_i:i\in\mathbb{Z}\}$, $\dots<x_{i-1}<x_i<x_{i+1}<\dots$, be a sampling set which is separated by a constant $\gamma>0$. Under certain conditions on $\phi$, it is proved that if there exists a positive integer $\nu$ such that…

In this paper, we expand on results from our previous paper "The Case Against Smooth Null Infinity I: Heuristics and Counter-Examples" [1] by showing that the failure of "peeling" (and, thus, of smooth null infinity) in a neighbourhood of…

Let $\Sigma$ be a complete Riemannian manifold with the volume doubling property and the uniform Neumann-Poincar$\mathrm{\acute{e}}$ inequality. We show that any positive minimal graphic function on $\Sigma$ is a constant.
