Let $u$ be a solution of $\Delta u=Vu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $V$ be continuous, nonnegative and bounded. We prove that the condition $$\int_{r_j\leq|x|\leq r_j+1}|u(x)|^2dx\to 0,$$ along any sequence $(r_j)$, $r_j\nearrow+\infty$,…

We consider the elliptic equation $-\Delta u = u^q|\nabla u|^p$ in $\mathbb R^n$ for any $p\ge 2$ and $q>0$. We prove a Liouville-type theorem, which asserts that any positive bounded solution is constant. The proof technique is based on…

The rigidity statement of the positive mass theorem asserts that an asymptotically flat initial data set for the Einstein equations with zero ADM mass, and satisfying the dominant energy condition, must arise from an embedding into…

In this paper we prove that a complete Riemannian manifold is $L^p$-positivity preserving for any $p\in(1,\infty)$. This means that any $L^p$ function which solves $(-\Delta + 1)u\ge 0$ in the sense of distributions is necessarily…

We prove that if $u\in C^0(B_1)$ satisfies $F(x,D^2u) \le 0$ in $B_1\subset \mathbb{R}^2$, in the viscosity sense, for some fully nonlinear $(\lambda, \Lambda)$-elliptic operator, then $u \in W^{2,\varepsilon}(B_{1/2})$, with appropriate…

We show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ if $\phi:\mathbb{T} \rightarrow \mathbb{T}$ is continuous and $\|\exp(-2\pi i z \phi)\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} =O_{|z|\rightarrow \infty}(\log^{\frac{1}{8}-\varepsilon} |z|)$ then $\phi(x)=wx+t$ for some $w…

This paper investigates the Cauchy problem for the compressible pressureless Navier-Stokes system in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 2$. Unlike the standard isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes system, the density in the pressureless model…

Here is a sample of the results proved in this paper: Let $f:{\bf R}\to {\bf R}$ be a continuous function, let $\rho>0$ and let $\omega:[0,\rho[\to [0,+\infty[$ be a continuous increasing function such that $\lim_{\xi\to…

We prove the continuity of Sobolev functions $\varphi \in W^{1,n}_{\mathrm{loc}}(\Omega)$, $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, that satisfy \[ \lvert\nabla \varphi(x)\rvert^n \le K(x)\bigl(\langle \nabla \varphi(x), \xi(x)\rangle + A(x)\bigr),…

In this paper, we establish Liouville-type theorems for the steady compressible Navier-Stokes system. Assuming a smooth solution \(u \in L^p(\mathbb{R}^3)\), \(3 \le p \le \frac{9}{2}\), with bounded density, one obtains \(u \equiv0\). This…

We use techniques of dyadic analysis in order to prove that, for every $0<s<\tfrac{1}{2}$, there exists a positive constant $\gamma(s)$ such that the inequality $$\left(\iint_{\mathbb{R}^2}|x-y|^{2s-1}|\varphi(x)||\varphi(y)|dx…

We study Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with mean-convex boundary whose Ricci curvature is nonnegative in a spectral sense. Our first main result is a sharp spectral extension of a rigidity theorem by Kasue: we prove that under the…

Let $f,g:(\mathbb{R}^n,0)\rightarrow (\mathbb{R},0)$ be $C^{r+1}$ functions, $r\in \mathbb{N}$. We will show that if $\nabla f(0)=0$ and there exist a neigbourhood $U$ of $0\in \mathbb{R}^n$ and a constant $C>0$ such that $$…
