In this paper, we introduce the notion of "geodesic cover" for Fuchsian groups, which summons copies of fundamental polygons in the hyperbolic plane to cover pairs of representatives realizing distances in the corresponding hyperbolic…
We investigate the properties of a special class of singular solutions for a self-gravitating perfect fluid in general relativity: the singular isothermal sphere. For arbitrary constant equation-of-state parameter $w=p/\rho$, there exist…
In the context of the correspondence between real functions on the unit circle and inner analytic functions within the open unit disk, that was presented in previous papers, we show that the constructions used to establish that…
A class of water wave problems concerns the dynamics of the free interface separating an inviscid, incompressible and irrotational fluid, under the influence of gravity, from a zero-density region. In this note, we present some recent…
In this article we study a system of eikonal equations. Our aim is to isolate the solutions which minimise the discontinuity set of the gradient.
It is revealed that distribution functions of practical gases relate to singularities and such singularities can, with molecular motion, spread to the entire region of interest. It is also shown that even common continuous distribution…
This paper is concerned with geometric motion of a closed surface whose velocity depends on a nonlocal quantity of the enclosed region. Using the level set formulation, we study a class of nonlocal Hamilton--Jacobi equations and establish a…
The kinetic theory description of a low density gas of hard spheres or disks, confined between two parallel plates separated a distance smaller than twice the diameter of the particles, is addressed starting from the Liouville equation of…
A slender-jet model for the pinching of a liquid column is considered in the limit of vanishing viscosity. We find the model to develop a singularity in the gradients of the local radius and the velocity at a finite thread radius, so it…
Let F be nonnegative, convex and smooth off a compact set K. We prove that continuous local minimisers of convex functionals are "very weak" viscosity solutions in the sense of Juutinen-Lindqvist of the highly singular Euler-Lagrange PDE…
We construct solutions to nonlinear wave equations that are singular along a prescribed noncharacteristic hypersurface which is the graph of a function satisfying not the Eikonal but another partial differential equation of the first order.…
We consider the coupled motion of a free rigid body immersed in an inviscid compressible isentropic fluid. By means of a vanishing viscosity limit, we obtain the local-in-time existence of a dissipative measure-valued solution to the model.…
The kinetics of dissolution of an amorphous solid is studied using a simple model of a glass that captures with reasonable accuracy the dynamic heterogeneities associated with the relaxation of an amorphous material at low temperatures. The…
In this paper, we considered the isentropic Navier-Stokes equations for compressible fluids with density-dependent viscosities in $\mathbb{R}^3$. These systems come from the Boltzmann equations through the Chapman-Enskog expansion to the…
We consider a coupled system of partial and ordinary differential equations describing the interaction between an isentropic inviscid fluid and a rigid body moving freely inside the fluid. We prove the existence of measure-valued solutions…
We consider an inverse problem in elastodynamics arising in seismic imaging. We prove locally uniqueness of the density of a non-homogeneous, isotropic elastic body from measurements taken on a part of the boundary. We measure the Dirichlet…
Given a continuous function $f:[a,b]\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $f(a)=f(b)$, we investigate the set of distances $|x-y|$ where $f(x)=f(y)$. In particular, we show that the only distances this set must contain are ones which evenly divide…
We study a strongly coupled system consisting of a parabolic equation and a singular Hamilton-Jacobi equation in one space dimension. This system describes the dynamics of dislocation densities in a material submitted to an exterior applied…
We study two-dimensional eigenvalue ensembles close to certain types of singular points in the bulk of the droplet. We prove existence of a microscopic density which quickly approaches the classical equilibrium density, as the distance from…
In this article we present several results concerning uniqueness of $C$-viscosity and $L_{p}$-viscosity solutions for fully nonlinear parabolic equations. In case of the Isaacs equations we allow lower order terms to have just measurable…
