This paper is concerned with the study of a model case of first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations posed on a "junction", that is to say the union of a finite number of half-lines with a unique common point. The main result is a comparison…
The paper considers a linear system of Boltzmann transport equations modelling the evolution of three species of particles, photons, electrons and positrons. The system is coupled because of the collision term (an integral operator). The…
We consider four-dimensional, Riemannian, Ricci-flat metrics for which one or other of the self-dual or anti-self-dual Weyl tensors is type-D. Such metrics always have a valence-2 Killing spinor, and therefore a Hermitian structure and at…
For any modulus of continuity $\omega$ that fails the Osgood condition, we construct a divergence-free velocity field $v \in C_t C^\omega_x$ for which the associated ODE admits at least two distinct flow maps. In other words, non-uniqueness…
We investigate an infinite array of point interactions of the same strength in R^d, d=2,3, situated at vertices of a polygonal curve with a fixed edge length. We demonstrate that if the curve is not a line, but it is asymptotically straight…
Given a smooth manifold $M$ and a totally nonholonomic distribution $\Delta\subset TM$ of rank $d$, we study the effect of singular curves on the topology of the space of horizontal paths joining two points on $M$. Singular curves are…
We establish existence and uniqueness results for initial-boundary value problems for transport equations in one space dimension with nearly incompressible velocity fields, under the sole assumption that the fields are bounded. In the case…
In this note we study the distribution of real inflection points among the ovals of a real non-singular hyperbolic curve of even degree. Using Hilbert's method we show that for any integers $d$ and $r$ such that $4\leq r \leq 2d^2-2d$,…
Suppose $V$ is a singular complex analytic curve inside $\mathbb{C}^{2}$. We investigate when a singular or non-singular complex analytic curve $W$ inside $\mathbb{C}^{2}$ with sufficiently small Hausdorff distance $d_{H}(V, W)$ from $V$…
Previous studies have identified potential instabilities in self-interacting vector theories associated with the breakdown of the well-posedness of the initial-value problem. However, these conclusions are restricted to Abelian vector…
The singular set of a viscosity solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi equation is known to propagate, from any noncritical singular point, along singular characteristics which are curves satisfying certain differential inclusions. In the…
We consider the linear transport equations driven by an incompressible flow in dimensions $d\geq 3$. For divergence-free vector fields $u \in L^1_t W^{1,q}$, the celebrated DiPerna-Lions theory of the renormalized solutions established the…
We prove uniqueness in the inverse conductivity problem for uniformly elliptic conductivities in $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ is Lipschitz, $3\leq n \leq 6$, and $s$ and $p$ are such that $ W^{s,p}(\Omega)\not…
We prove pathwise uniqueness for a class of stochastic differential equations (SDE) on a Hilbert space with cylindrical Wiener noise, whose nonlinear drift parts are sums of the sub-differential of a convex function and a bounded part. This…
We consider a nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by a nonhomogeneous differential operator with a growth of order $(p-1)$ near $+\infty$ and with a reaction which has the competing effects of a parametric singular term and a…
We prove strong well-posedness for a class of stochastic evolution equations in Hilbert spaces H when the drift term is Holder continuous. This class includes examples of semilinear stochastic damped wave equations which describe elastic…
We consider a one dimensional transport equation with varying vector field and a small viscosity coefficient, controlled by one endpoint of the interval. We give upper and lower bounds on the minimal time needed to control to zero,…
We show that for any integer $N$, there are only finitely many cuspidal algebraic automorphic representations of ${\rm GL}_n$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, with $n$ varying, whose conductor is $N$ and whose weights are in the interval…
In this paper we present some results for a connected infinite graph $G$ with finite degrees where the properties of balls of small radii guarantee the existence of some Hamiltonian and connectivity properties of $G$. (For a vertex $w$ of a…
A classical result in Differential Geometry states that the flows of two smooth vector fields commute if and only if their Lie Bracket vanishes. In this work, we extend this result to a more general setting where one of the vector fields is…
