The purpose of this paper is twofold. We first prove a weighted Sobolev inequality and part of a weighted Morrey's inequality, where the weights are a power of the mean curvature of the level sets of the function appearing in the…

We show that any non-minimal bridge decomposition of a torus knot is stabilized and that $n$-bridge decompositions of a torus knot are unique for any integer $n$. This implies that a knot in a bridge position is a torus knot if and only if…
We consider the non-homogeneous generalised Burgers equation \frac{\partial u}{\partial t} + f'(u)\frac{\partial u}{\partial x} - \nu \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2} = \eta,\ t \geq 0,\ x \in S^1. Here f is strongly convex and satisfies a…

We prove that a local, weak Sobolev inequality implies a global Sobolev estimate using existence and regularity results for a family of $p$-Laplacian equations. Given $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, let $\rho$ be a quasi-metric on $\Omega$,…
We consider the fourth order problem $\Delta^{2}u=\lambda f(u)$ on a general bounded domain $\Omega$ in $R^{n}$ with the Navier boundary condition $u=\Delta u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Here, $\lambda$ is a positive parameter and $…
Let $f\in C^1(\mathbb{R})$. We study stable solutions $u$ of the mean curvature equation \[ \operatorname{div}\left( \frac{\nabla u}{\sqrt{1+|\nabla u|^2}} \right) = -f(u) \qquad \text{in}\ \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n. \] In the local…

In this paper, we obtain the optimal instability threshold of the Couette flow for Navier-Stokes equations with small viscosity $\nu>0$, when the perturbations are in the critical spaces $H^1_xL_y^2$. More precisely, we introduce a new…
