The Cauchy problem for the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equation is globally well-posed for smooth initial data. In this paper, we show that for a dense $G_\delta$ set of initial data, the solutions lose regularity in infinite time,…
We consider the 3D incompressible Euler equations in vorticity form in the following fundamental domain for the octahedral symmetry group: $\{ (x_1,x_2,x_3): 0<x_3<x_2<x_1 \}.$ In this domain, we prove local well-posedness for $C^\alpha$…

In this article, we will study unbounded solutions of the 2D incompressible Euler equations. One of the motivating factors for this is that the usual functional framework for the Euler equations (e.g. based on finite energy conditions, such…
We study the ``hyperboloidal Cauchy problem'' for linear and semi-linear wave equations on Minkowski space-time, with initial data in weighted Sobolev spaces allowing singular behaviour at the boundary, or with polyhomogeneous initial data.…
The formation of a singularity in a compressible gas, as described by the Euler equation, is characterized by the steepening, and eventual overturning of a wave. Using a self-similar description in two space dimensions, we show that the…
This article focuses on almost global existence for quasilinear wave equations with small initial data in 4-dimensional exterior domains. The nonlinearity is allowed to depend on the solution at the quadratic level as well as its first and…
We study the Cauchy problem on the real line for the nonlocal Fisher-KPP equation in one spatial dimension, \[ u_t = D u_{xx} + u(1-\phi*u), \] where $\phi*u$ is a spatial convolution with the top hat kernel, $\phi(y) \equiv…
