In this paper we establish the well-posedness of the Muskat problem with surface tension and equal viscosities in the subcritical Sobolev spaces $W^s_p(\mathbb{R})$, where ${p\in(1,2]}$ and ${s\in(1+1/p,2)}$. This is achieved by showing…

We establish a weak-strong uniqueness principle for the two-phase Mullins-Sekerka equation in the plane: As long as a classical solution to the evolution problem exists, any weak De Giorgi type varifold solution (see for this notion the…

We study the Muskat problem describing the vertical motion of two immiscible fluids in a two-dimensional homogeneous porous medium in an $L_p$-setting with $p\in(1,\infty)$. The Sobolev space $W^s_p(\mathbb{R})$ with $s=1+1/p$ is a critical…

For the $d$-dimensional incompressible Euler equation, the standard energy method gives local wellposedness for initial velocity in Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb R^d)$, $s>s_c:=d/2+1$. The borderline case $s=s_c$ was a folklore open problem.…

We prove uniqueness and stability for the inverse boundary value problem of the two dimensional Schr\"odinger equation. We do not assume the potentials to be continuous or even bounded. Instead, we assume that some of their positive…

We prove that the 3D stable Muskat problem is globally well-posed in the critical Sobolev space $\dot H^2 \cap \dot W^{1,\infty}$ provided that the semi-norm $\Vert f_0 \Vert_{\dot H^{2}}$ is small enough. Consequently, this allows the…

We consider a coupled two-phase Navier-Stokes/Mullins-Sekerka system describing the motion of two immiscible, incompressible fluids inside a bounded container. The moving interface separating the liquids meets the boundary of the container…
