The transport phenomena of a nonequilibrium lattice gas system are investigated. We consider a simple system that consists of two particles interacting repulsively and the potential forces acting on these particles. Under an external…
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…
The classical problem of optimal transportation can be formulated as a linear optimization problem on a convex domain: among all joint measures with fixed marginals find the optimal one, where optimality is measured against a cost function.…
An optimal transport problem on finite spaces is a linear program. Recently, a relaxation of the optimal transport problem via strictly convex functions, especially via the Kullback--Leibler divergence, sheds new light on data sciences.…

It is known that linear advection equations with Sobolev velocity fields have very poor regularity properties: Solutions propagate only derivatives of logarithmic order, which can be measured in terms of suitable Gagliardo seminorms. We…
The topic of this paper are nonlinear traveling waves occuring in a system of damped waves equations in one space variable. We extend the freezing method from first to second order equations in time. When applied to a Cauchy problem, this…
The vortex-wave system is a model for the evolution of 2D incompressible fluids in which the vorticity is split into a finite sum of Dirac masses plus an Lp part. Existence of a weak solution for this system was recently proved by Lopes…
Standard and anomalous transport in incompressible flow is investigated using multiscale techniques. Eddy-diffusivities emerge from the multiscale analysis through the solution of an auxiliary equation. From the latter it is derived an…

Let an infinite, homogeneous, many-body quantum system be unitarily evolved for a long time from a state where two halves are independently thermalized. One says that a non-equilibrium steady state emerges if there are nonzero steady…
We introduce models for viscoelastic materials, both solids and fluids, based on logarithmic stresses to capture the elastic contribution to the material response. The matrix logarithm allows to link the measures of strain, that naturally…
Nonlinear scalar conservation laws are traditionally viewed as transport equations. We take instead the viewpoint of these PDEs as continuity equations with an implicitly defined velocity field. We show that a weak solution is the entropy…
