We establish a pointwise convergence result for ergodic averages modeled along orbits of the form $(n\lfloor n\sqrt{k}\rfloor)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $k$ is an arbitrary positive rational number with $\sqrt{k}\not\in\mathbb{Q}$. Namely,…

Generalized hydrodynamic theory, which does not rest on the requirement of a local equilibrium, is derived in the long-wave limit of a kinetic equation. The theory bridges the whole frequency range between the quasistatic (Navier-Stokes)…
The celebrated Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem asserts that, for an ergodic map, orbits of almost every point equidistributes when sampled at integer times. This result was generalized by Bourgain to many natural sparse subsets of the integers. On…
We study the motion of a rigid body within a compressible, isentropic, and viscous fluid contained in a fixed bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$. The fluid's behavior is described by the Navier-Stokes equations, while the motion…
We consider a class of one dimensional compressible systems with degenerate diffusion coefficients. We establish the fact that the solutions remain smooth as long as the diffusion coefficients do not vanish, and give local and global…
We investigate the inertial limit of the compressible Navier--Stokes system posed on the $3$-dimensional torus, and allowing for regions of vacuum. Considering global-in-time finite-energy weak solutions of a scaled system, we rigorously…
The aim of this paper is to reconsider the existence theory for steady compressible Navier--Stokes--Fourier system assuming more general condition of the dependence of the viscosities on the temperature in the form $\mu(\vartheta)$,…
For the physically important case in which the viscosity coefficients depend on the density $\rho$ through a power law (i.e., $\rho^\delta$ with some exponent $\delta \in (\frac{1}{2},1)$), we establish the global well-posedness of regular…
The steady motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in distorted pipes, of finite length, is modeled through the Navier-Stokes equations with mixed boundary conditions: the inflow is given by an arbitrary member of the Lions-Magenes class…
The Euler and Navier-Stokes fluid mechanics equations are derived using a modified statistical mechanical approach using theory taken from the Chapman-Enskog perturbation analysis used to support the lattice Boltzmann method. Additional…

We consider compressible fluid flow on an evolving surface with a piecewise Lipschitz-continuous boundary from an energetic point of view. We employ both an energetic variational approach and the first law of thermodynamics to make a…
We initiate the study of effective pointwise ergodic theorems in resource-bounded settings. Classically, the convergence of the ergodic averages for integrable functions can be arbitrarily slow. In contrast, we show that for a class of…
The nonhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations are considered in a cylindrical domain in ${\mathbb R}^3$, parallel to the $x_3$-axis with large inflow and outflow on the top and the bottom. Moreover, on the lateral part of the cylinder the slip…
We consider the viscous incompressible fluids in a three-dimensional horizontally periodic domain bounded below by a fixed smooth boundary and above by a free moving surface. The fluid dynamics are governed by the Navier-Stokes equations…
The ergodic hypothesis outgrew from the ancient conception of motion as periodic or quasi periodic. It did cause a revision of our views of motion, particularly through Boltzmann and Poincar\'e: we discuss how Boltmann's conception of…
