We introduce a deformation of the method of characteristics valid for Hamiltonian perturbations of a scalar conservation law in the small dispersion limit. Our method of analysis is based on the 'variational string equation', a…
We prove a Harnack inequality for solutions to $L_A u = 0$ where the elliptic matrix $A$ is adapted to a convex function satisfying minimal geometric conditions. An application to Sobolev inequalities is included.
The aim of this paper is twofold. - In the setting of RCD(K,$\infty$) metric measure spaces, we derive uniform gradient and Laplacian contraction estimates along solutions of the viscous approximation of the Hamilton--Jacobi equation. We…
We prove boundedness, H\"older continuity, Harnack inequality results for local quasiminima to elliptic double phase problems of $p$-Laplace type in the general context of metric measure spaces. The proofs follow a variational approach and…
Pseudo-parabolic equations have been used to model unsaturated fluid flow in porous media. In this paper it is shown how a pseudo-parabolic equation can be upscaled when using a spatio-temporal decomposition employed in the…
This work is devoted to the study of parabolic frequency for solutions of the heat equation on Riemannian manifolds. We show that the parabolic frequency functional is almost increasing on compact manifolds with nonnegative sectional…
In this paper we study small amplitude solutions of nonlinear Klein Gordon equations with a potential. Under smoothness and decay assumptions on the potential and a genericity assumption on the nonlinearity, we prove that all small…
This work introduces finite element methods for a class of elliptic fully nonlinear partial differential equations. They are based on a minimal residual principle that builds upon the Alexandrov--Bakelman--Pucci estimate. Under rather…
This paper is the first attempt to systematically study properties of the effective Hamiltonian $\overline{H}$ arising in the periodic homogenization of some coercive but nonconvex Hamilton-Jacobi equations. Firstly, we introduce a new and…
The goal of this thesis is the development and implementation of a non-perturbative solution method for Wegner's flow equations. We show that a parameterization of the flowing Hamiltonian in terms of a scalar function allows the flow…
The levelling of short-wave irregularities on a thin film of fluid is primarily due to the action of surface tension. Surface tension gradients are often created by a number of different factor including evaporation, thermal gradients or…
A new microscopic formula for the viscosity of liquids and solids is derived rigorously from a first-principles (microscopically reversible) Hamiltonian for particle-bath atomistic motion. The derivation is done within the framework of…
We study a selection problem for degenerate viscous Hamilton--Jacobi equations with convex Hamiltonians, in which the approximation procedure combines a nonlinear discounted approximation with a small potential perturbation. A key question…
We explore how the analysis of the Carleman linearization can be extended to dynamical systems on infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces with quadratic nonlinearities. We demonstrate the well-posedness and convergence of the truncated Carleman…
We use the spinor helicity formalism in order to derive the dyadic forms for massless fields of various spins. We also give an iterated form of this approach in case higher spin theories are under study. This reduces calculations at hard…
Non-smooth optimization is a core ingredient of many imaging or machine learning pipelines. Non-smoothness encodes structural constraints on the solutions, such as sparsity, group sparsity, low-rank and sharp edges. It is also the basis for…
We consider a two-dimensional, incompressible, inviscid fluid with variable density, subject to the action of gravity. Assuming a stable equilibrium density profile, we adopt the so-called Boussinesq approximation, which neglects density…
Horndeski theory is the most general scalar-tensor theory retaining second-order field equations, although the action includes higher-order terms. This is achieved by a special choice of coupling constants. In this paper, we investigate…
We show the smoothness of weakly Dirac-harmonic maps from a closed spin Riemann surface into stationary Lorentzian manifolds, and obtain a regularity theorem for a class of critical elliptic systems without anti-symmetry structures.
We consider stochastic partial differential equations under minimal assumptions: the coefficients are merely bounded and measurable and satisfy the stochastic parabolicity condition. In particular, the diffusion term is allowed to be…
