Steady fluid flows have very special topology. In this paper we describe necessary and sufficient conditions on the vorticity function of a 2D ideal flow on a surface with or without boundary, for which there exists a steady flow among…

In this paper we are concerned with the following Kirchhoff type problem involving the 1-Laplace operator : \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{llc} u_{t}-m\left(\int_{\Omega}|Du|\right)\Delta_{1} u=0 & \text{in}\ & \Omega\times…

In this paper we study the parabolic evolution equation $\partial_t u=(|Du|^{2}+2|\det Du|)^{-1} \Delta u$, where $u : M\times[0,\infty) \to N$ is an evolving map between compact flat surfaces. We use a tensor maximum principle for the…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of families of gradient flows in a general metric setting, when the metric-dissipation potentials degenerate in the limit to a dissipation with linear growth. We present a general variational definition of…

In this paper we consider the minimization of a novel class of fractional linear growth functionals involving the Riesz fractional gradient. These functionals lack the coercivity properties in the fractional Sobolev spaces needed to apply…
