In this work, we investigate links between the formulation of the flow of marginals of reversible diffusion processes as gradient flows in the space of probability measures and path wise large deviation principles for sequences of such…
We consider entire solutions to $L u= f(u)$ in $\RR^2$, where $L$ is a general nonlocal operator with kernel $K(y)$. Under certain natural assumtions on the operator $L$, we show that any stable solution is a 1D solution. In particular, our…
In this paper, we study the two-dimensional steady compactly supported incompressible Euler equations with free boundaries. We consider flows with constant vorticity that are perturbations of annular equilibria, in contrast to the laminar…
We present new results concerning the approximation of the total variation, $\int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|$, of a function $u$ by non-local, non-convex functionals of the form $$ \Lambda_\delta u = \int_{\Omega} \int_{\Omega} \frac{\delta…
We analyze the long-time behavior of solutions to semilinear parabolic equations in Euclidean space that arise as gradient flows of an energy functional. We prove that, for general initial data (including data without compact support) the…
In this paper we show that steady states $u$ of the pressureless Euler equation which belong to $L^3_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2,\mathbb{R}^2)$ are shear flows. This is achieved by combining results of degenerate Monge-Amp\`ere-type equations with…
In this paper, we consider the $L^2$-gradient flow for the modified $p$-elastic energy defined on planar closed curves. We formulate a notion of weak solution for the flow and prove the existence of global-in-time weak solutions with $p \ge…

This paper presents a rigorous convergence analysis of the $L^{p+1}$-normalized gradient flow with asymptotic Lagrange multiplier (GFALM) method for computing the action ground state of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in the focusing…
We consider the reduced Allen-Cahn action functional, which appears as the sharp interface limit of the Allen-Cahn action functional and can be understood as a formal action functional for a stochastically perturbed mean curvature flow. For…
We consider a one dimensional transport model with nonlocal velocity given by the Hilbert transform and develop a global well-posedness theory of probability measure solutions. Both the viscous and non-viscous cases are analyzed. Both in…
We develop the asymptotic analysis as $\epsilon\to 0$ for the natural gradient flow of the self-dual $U(1)$-Higgs energies $$E_{\epsilon}(u,\nabla)=\int_M\left(|\nabla u|^2+\epsilon^2|F_{\nabla}|^2+\frac{(1-|u|^2)^2}{4\epsilon^2}\right)$$…
We consider $L^2$ minimizing geodesics along the group of volume preserving maps $SDiff(D)$ of a given 3-dimensional domain $D$. The corresponding curves describe the motion of an ideal incompressible fluid inside $D$ and are (formally)…
We study the gradient-flow structure of a non-Newtonian thin film equation with power-law rheology. The equation is quasilinear, of fourth order and doubly-degenerate parabolic. By adding a singular potential to the natural Dirichlet…

This paper establishes an explicit $L^2$-estimate for weak solutions $u$ to linear elliptic equations in divergence form with general coefficients and external source term $f$, stating that the $L^2$-norm of $u$ over $U$ is bounded by a…
A new infinitesimal characterization of completely positive but not necessarily homomorphic Markov flows from a C^*-algebra to bounded operators on the boson Fock space over L^2(R) is given. Contrarily to previous characterizations, based…
We study the dynamics of compressible fluids in rotating heterogeneous porous media. The fluid flow is of {F}orchheimer-type and is subject to a mixed mass and volumetric flux boundary condition. The governing equations are reduced to a…
We study evolution equations on metric graphs with reservoirs, that is graphs where a one-dimensional interval is associated to each edge and, in addition, the vertices are able to store and exchange mass with these intervals. Focusing on…
