In this work, we use the JKO scheme to approximate a general class of diffusion problems generated by Darcy's law. Although the scheme is now classical, if the energy density is spatially inhomogeneous or irregular, many standard methods…
We study the existence of weak solutions to a mixture model for tumour growth that consists of a Cahn--Hilliard--Darcy system coupled with an elliptic reaction-diffusion equation. The Darcy law gives rise to an elliptic equation for the…
The JKO scheme provides the discrete-in-time approximation for the solutions of evolutionary equations with Wasserstein gradient structure. We study a natural space-discretization of this scheme by restricting the minimization to the…
In this work, we develop a structure-preserving numerical scheme for a Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy model that describes tumor growth in a fluid-saturated porous medium. First, we derive a physically consistent model from the general framework…
We study the Wasserstein gradient flow of semi-discrete energies in the space of probability measures, that is functionals depending on two measures-one being an absolutely continuous density and the other an atomic measure. These energies…
We construct deterministic particle solutions for linear and fast diffusion equations using a nonlocal approximation. We exploit the $2$-Wasserstein gradient flow structure of the equations in order to obtain the nonlocal approximating PDEs…

We study the existence of weak solutions to a Cahn--Hilliard--Darcy system coupled with a convection-reaction-diffusion equation through the fluxes, through the source terms and in Darcy's law. The system of equations arises from a mixture…
We propose a variational finite volume scheme to approximate the solutions to Wasserstein gradient flows. The time discretization is based on an implicit linearization of the Wasserstein distance expressed thanks to Benamou-Brenier formula,…
The seminal paper of Jordan, Kinderlehrer, and Otto introduced what is now widely known as the JKO scheme, an iterative algorithmic framework for computing distributions. This scheme can be interpreted as a Wasserstein gradient flow and has…
We study the JKO scheme for the total variation, characterize the optimizers, prove some of their qualitative properties (in particular a form of maximum principle and in some cases, a minimum principle as well). Finally, we establish a…
We prove the existence of the weak solutions to the compressible Navier--Stokes system with barotropic pressure $p(\varrho)=\varrho^\gamma$ for $\gamma\geq 9/5$ in three space dimension. The novelty of the paper is the approximation scheme…
We study a Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy system with mass sources, which can be considered as a basic, though simplified, diffuse interface model for the evolution of tumor growth. This system is equipped with an impermeability condition for the…
We consider the numerical approximation of compressible flow in a pipe network. Appropriate coupling conditions are formulated that allow us to derive a variational characterization of solutions and to prove global balance laws for the…
Mechanical models for tumor growth have been used extensively in recent years for the analysis of medical observations and for the prediction of cancer evolution based on imaging analysis. This work deals with the numerical approximation of…
We study families of porous medium equation with nonlocal pressure. We construct their weak solutions via JKO schemes for modified Wasserstein distances. We also establish the regularization effect and decay estimates for the $L^p$ norms.
We obtain an existence result for a Measure Differential Equation with an additional nonlinear growth/decay term that may change the sign. The proof requires a modification of approximating schemes proposed by Piccoli and Rossi. The new…
This paper is concerned with the inverse problem of determining the time and space dependent source term of diffusion equations with constant-order time-fractional derivative in $(0,2)$. We examine two different cases. In the first one, the…

We consider a coupled model of free-flow and porous medium flow, governed by stationary Stokes and Darcy flow, respectively. The coupling between the two systems is enforced by introducing a single variable representing the normal flux…
