This article addresses the solvability of the multi-dimensional divergence-curl problem with a no-slip boundary condition. A solvability criterion is derived as an orthogonality condition of the vorticity function to pseudo-harmonic fields.…

We define an analogue of the Arnold surface for odd degree flexible curves, and we use it to double branch cover $Q$-flexible embeddings, where $Q$-flexible is a condition to be added to the classical notion of a flexible curve. This allows…

This note studies the Hardy-type inequalities for vector fields with the $L^1$ norm of the $\curl$. In contrast to the well-known results in the whole space for the divergence-free vectors, we generalize the Hardy-type inequalities to the…

We prove on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ the Lieb--Thirring inequalities for orthonormal families of scalar and vector functions both on the whole sphere and on proper domains on $\mathbb{S}^2$. By way of applications we obtain an explicit…

We consider the best constant in the Rellich-Hardy inequality (with a radial power weight) for curl-free vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^N$, originally found by Tertikas-Zographopoulos \cite{Tertikas-Z} for unconstrained fields. This…

We review recent results on functional inequalities for systems of orthonormal functions. The key finding is that for various operators the orthonormality leads to a gain over a simple application of the triangle inequality. The operators…

We prove on the 2D sphere and on the 2D torus the Lieb-Thirring inequalities with improved constants for orthonormal families of scalar and vector functions.

We consider the problem of recovering the divergence-free velocity field ${\mathbf U}\in\mathbf{L}^2(\Omega)$ of a given vorticity ${\mathbf F}=\mathrm{curl}\,{\mathbf U}$ on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. To that…

We give a div-curl type lemma for the wedge product of closed differential forms on R^n when they have coefficients respectively in a Hardy space and L^infinity or BMO. In this last case, the wedge product belongs to an appropriate…

Divergence-free (div-free) and curl-free vector fields are pervasive in many areas of science and engineering, from fluid dynamics to electromagnetism. A common problem that arises in applications is that of constructing smooth approximants…

Using the div-curl inequalities of Bourgain-Brezis [?MR2057026] and van Schaftingen [?MR2078071], we prove an improved Strichartz estimate for systems of inhomogeneous wave and Schrodinger equations, for which the inhomogeneity is a…

In this paper we prove that the free boundary of some variational inequalities with gradient constraints is as regular as the tangent bundle of the boundary of the domain. To this end, we study a generalized notion of ridge of a domain in…

We prove a global version of the so-called div-curl-lemma, a crucial result for compensated compactness and in homogenization theory, for mixed tangential and normal boundary conditions in bounded weak Lipschitz domains in 3D and weak…

In this paper, we prove Hardy-Leray and Rellich-Leray inequalities for curl-free vector fields with sharp constants. This complements the former work by Costin-Maz'ya \cite{Costin-Mazya} on the sharp Hardy-Leray inequality for axisymmetric…

We consider a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ with sufficiently smooth boundary and prove piecewise Sobolev regularity of vector fields that have piecewise regular curl and divergence, but may be discontinuous across…

Let $X$ be a semistable curve and $L$ a line bundle whose multidegree is uniform, i.e., in the range between those of the structure sheaf and the dualizing sheaf of $X$. We establish an upper bound for $h^0(X,L)$, which generalizes the…

In this work, we investigate the system formed by the equations $\text{div } \vec w=g_0$ and $\text{curl } \vec w=\vec g$ in bounded star-shaped domains of $\mathbb{R}^3$. A Helmholtz-type decomposition theorem is established based on a…

In this paper we give an affirmative answer to the Euclidean analogue of a question of Bourgain and Brezis concerning the optimal Lorentz estimate for a Div-Curl system: The function $Z=\operatorname*{curl} (-\Delta)^{-1} F$ satisfies…

We consider the inhomogeneous div-curl system (i.e.\ to find a vector field with prescribed div and curl) in a bounded star-shaped domain in $\mathbb{R}^3$. An explicit general solution is given in terms of classical integral operators,…

In this paper we will consider two curl-curl equation in two dimensions. One curl-curl problem for a scalar quantity $F$ and one problem for a vector field $\bf{E}$. For Dirichlet boundary conditions $\bf{n} \times \bf{E} =$ $…
