In quantitative genetics, viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations appear naturally in the asymptotic limit of selection-mutation models when the population variance vanishes. They have to be solved together with an unknown function…
We consider the evolution of two incompressible, immiscible fluids with different densities in porous media, known as the Muskat problem [21], which in two dimensions is analogous to the Hele-Shaw cell [26]. We establish, for a class of…
Of concern is the motion of two fluids separated by a free interface in a porous medium, where the velocities are given by Darcy's law. We consider the case with and without phase transition. It is shown that the resulting models can be…
In this work we study the inhomogeneous Muskat problem, \emph{i.e.} the evolution of an internal wave between two different fluids in a porous medium with discontinuous permeability. In particular, under precise conditions on the initial…
We show the existence and uniqueness of a continuous viscosity solution of a system of partial differential equations (PDEs for short) without assuming the usual monotonicity conditions on the driver function as in Hamad\`ene and Morlais's…

We provide a quick proof of the existence of mixing weak solutions for the Muskat problem with variable mixing speed. Our proof is considerably shorter and extends previous results in \cite{ccf:ipm} and \cite{fsz:ipm}.
The Muskat problem models the dynamics of the interface between two incompressible immiscible fluids with different constant densities. In this work we prove three results. First we prove an $L^2(\R)$ maximum principle, in the form of a new…
The problem of testing hypothesis that a density function has no more than $\mu$ derivatives versus it has more than $\mu$ derivatives is considered. For a solution, the $L^2$ norms of wavelet orthogonal projections on some orthogonal…
This paper is concerned with the well-posedness and regularity of the distributional solutions for the stochastic acoustic and elastic scattering problems. We show that the regularity of the solutions depends on the regularity of both the…
This article is devoted to a regularity criteria for solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in terms of regularity along the stream lines. More precisely, we prove that a suitable weak solution for the Navier-Stokes equations is regular…
The free boundary problem for a two-dimensional fluid filtered in porous media is studied. This is known as the one-phase Muskat problem and is mathematically equivalent to the vertical Hele-Shaw problem driven by gravity force. We prove…
We study the regularity of Lipschitz viscosity solutions to the $\sigma_k$ Yamabe problem in the negative cone case. If either $k=n$ or the manifold is conformally flat and $k>n/2$, we prove that all Lipschitz viscosity solutions are smooth…
We obtain sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the continuity equation in classes of measures that need not be absolutely continuous.
In this work we study the evolution of the interface between two different fluids in a porous media with two different permeabilities. We prove local existence in Sobolev spaces, when the free boundary is given by the discontinuity among…
We establish that when n >= 2 and H is a C^1 Hamiltonian such that some level set contains a line segment, the Aronsson equation admits explicit entire viscosity solutions. They are superpositions of a linear part plus a Lipschitz…
The Muskat problem involves filtration of two incompressible fluids throughout a porous medium. In this paper we shall discuss in 3-D the relevance of the Rayleigh-Taylor condition, and the topology of the initial interface, in order to…
