In this paper for either the sharp front Surface Quasi-Geostrophic equation or the Muskat problem we rule out the "splash singularity" blow-up scenario; in other words we prove that the contours evolving from either of these systems can not…

In this paper, we establish the global well-posedness of the one-phase Muskat problem with surface tension for small initial data. This problem describes the motion of the interface separating a wet region from a dry region within a porous…
A two-dimensional steady problem of a potential free-surface flow of an ideal incompressible fluid caused by a singular sink is considered. The sink is placed at the horizontal bottom of the fluid layer. With the help of the Levi-Civita…
The no-slip boundary condition at a solid-liquid interface is at the center of our understanding of fluid mechanics. However, this condition is an assumption that cannot be derived from first principles and could, in theory, be violated. We…

We investigate complete non-orientable minimal surfaces of finite total curvature in $\mathbb{R}^3$ such that their ends are foliated by closed lines of curvature. This condition on the ends is necessary if they have a piece inside some…
This paper is concerned with the long time dynamics of the free boundary of a Darcy fluid in three space dimensions, also known as the one-phase Muskat problem. The dynamics of the free boundary is governed by a nonlocal fully nonlinear…
Chiral active matter, which breaks both parity symmetry and time-reversal symmetry, is ubiquitous in living systems. Here, we introduce a minimal two-dimensional chiral active lattice gas by incorporating stochastic, biased local rotations.…
