In this short note, we study the local well-posedness of a 3D model for incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with partial viscosity. This model was originally proposed by Hou-Lei in \cite{HouLei09a}. In a recent paper, we prove that this…

We present a set of well-posed constraint-preserving boundary conditions for a first-order in time, second-order in space, harmonic formulation of the Einstein equations. The boundary conditions are tested using robust stability, linear and…

In this paper, we investigate the generalized covariant entropy bound in the theory where the Einstein gravity is perturbed by the higher-order Lovelock terms. After replacing the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy with the Jacobson-Myers entropy…

We introduce a class of generalized relative entropies (inspired by the Bregman divergence in information theory) on the Wasserstein space over a weighted Riemannian or Finsler manifold. We prove that the convexity of all the entropies in…

The initial-boundary value problem for a general balance law in a bounded domain is proved to be well posed. Indeed, we show the existence of an entropy solution, its uniqueness and its Lipschitz continuity as a function of time, of the…

We show that with a small modification, the formulation of the Einstein equations of Uggla et al, which uses tetrad variables normalised by the expansion, is a mixed symmetric hyperbolic/parabolic system. Well-posedness of the Cauchy…

In the first of two papers, we study the initial boundary-value problem that underlies the theory of the Boltzmann equation for general non-spherical hard particles. In this work, for two congruent ellipses and for a large class of…

If $L^x$ is the total occupation local time of $d$-dimensional super-Brownian motion, $X$, for $d=2$ and $d=3$, we construct a random measure $\mathcal{L}$, called the boundary local time measure, as a rescaling of $L^x e^{-\lambda L^x} dx$…

In the paper, we study the Prandtl system with initial data admitting non-degenerate critical points. For any index $\sigma\in[3/2, 2],$ we obtain the local in time well-posedness in the space of Gevrey class $G^\sigma$ in the tangential…
