In this paper, we examine regularity and stability issues for two damped abstract elastic systems. The damping involves the average velocity and a fractional power $\theta$, with $\theta$ in $[-1,1]$, of the principal operator. The matrix…

We study here a new generalization of Caffarelli, Kohn and Nirenberg's partial regularity theory for weak solutions of the MHD equations. Indeed, in this framework some hypotheses on the pressure P are usually asked (for example P $\in$ L q…

We analyze degenerate, second-order, elliptic operators $H$ in divergence form on $L_2(\Ri^{n}\times\Ri^{m})$. We assume the coefficients are real symmetric and $a_1H_\delta\geq H\geq a_2H_\delta$ for some $a_1,a_2>0$ where \[…

Given a positive function $f$ on $(0,\infty)$ and a non-zero real parameter $\theta$, we consider a function $I_f^\theta(A,B,X)=Tr X^*(f(L_AR_B^{-1})R_B)^\theta(X)$ in three matrices $A,B>0$ and $X$. In the literature $\theta=\pm1$ has been…

We study stable solutions to fractional semilinear equations $(-\Delta)^s u = f(u)$ in $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, for convex nonlinearities $f$, and under the Dirichlet exterior condition $u=g$ in $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus \Omega$ with…

Using small deformations of the total energy, as introduced in [31], we establish that damped second order gradient systems $$u^{\prime\prime}(t)+\gamma u^\prime(t)+\nabla G(u(t))=0,$$may be viewed as quasi-gradient systems. In order to…

We study the Hermite operator $H=-\Delta+|x|^2$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and its fractional powers $H^\beta$, $\beta>0$ in phase space. Namely, we represent functions $f$ via the so-called short-time Fourier, alias Fourier-Wigner or Bargmann…

We study minimizers of non-autonomous energies with minimal growth and coercivity assumptions on the energy. We show that the minimizer is nevertheless the solution of the relevant Euler--Lagrange equation or inequality. The main tool is an…

Operator convex functions defined on the positive half-line play a prominent role in the theory of quantum information, where they are used to define quantum $f$-divergences. Such functions admit integral representations in terms of…
