We prove that the Cauchy problem for the Dirac-Klein-Gordon equations in two space dimensions is locally well-posed in a range of Sobolev spaces of negative index for the Dirac spinor, and an associated range of spaces of positive index for…
We consider wave maps on $(1+d)$-dimensional Minkowski space. For each dimension $d\geq 8$ we construct a negatively curved, $d$-dimensional target manifold that allows for the existence of a self-similar wave map which provides a stable…
We describe the inverse image of the Riemannian exponential map at a basepoint of a compact symmetric space as the disjoint union of so called focal orbits through a maximal torus. These are orbits of a subgroup of the isotropy group acting…
In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for 2D viscous shallow water system in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$, $s>1$. We first prove the local well-posedness of this problem by using the Littlewood-Paley theory, the Bony decomposition, and the…
This paper is devoted to the Cauchy problem for the modified multi-component Camassa-Holm system in higher dimensions. On the one hand, we establish an almost complete local well-posedness results for the system in the framework of Besov…
For any $n$-dimensional compact spin Riemannian manifold $M$ with a given spin structure and a spinor bundle $\Sigma M$, and any compact Riemannian manifold $N$, we show an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for weakly Dirac-harmonic maps . As a…
We consider the Cauchy problem to the two-dimensional incompressible liquid crystal equation and the heat flows of harmonic maps equation. Under a natural geometric angle condition, we give a new proof of the global well-posedness of smooth…
Let $(X,T)$ be a dynamical system where $X$ is a compact metric space and $T:X\rightarrow X$ is continuous and invertible. Assume the Lebesgue covering dimension of $X$ is $d$. We show that for a generic continuous map…
This paper is devoted to several small data existence results for semi-linear wave equations on negatively curved Riemannian manifolds. We provide a simple and geometric proof of small data global existence for any power $p\in (1,…
We present a framework to describe completely general first-order perturbations of static, spatially compact, and locally rotationally symmetric class II spacetimes within the theory of general relativity. The perturbation variables are by…
We consider a strongly damped wave equation on compact manifolds, both with and without boundaries, and formulate the corresponding inverse problems. For closed manifolds, we prove that the metric can be uniquely determined, up to an…
In this article, we first present the construction of Gibbs measures associated to nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with harmonic potential. Then we show that the corresponding Cauchy problem is globally well-posed for rough initial…
In this paper we prove global well-posedness for the defocusing, energy-subcritical, nonlinear wave equation on $\mathbb{R}^{1 + 3}$ with initial data in a critical Besov space. No radial symmetry assumption is needed.
In this article, we give a completely constructive proof of the observability/controllability of the wave equation on a compact manifold under optimal geometric conditions. This contrasts with the original proof of Bardos-Lebeau-Rauch,…
We consider the space $\mathcal{D}'^r_L(M;E)$ of distributional sections of the smooth complex vector bundle $E\rightarrow M$ whose Sobolev wave front set of order $r\in\mathbb{R}$ lies in the closed conic subset $L$ of $T^*M\backslash0$.…
The theme here is category-measure duality, in the context of a topological group. One can often handle the (Baire) category case and the (Lebesgue, or Haar) measure cases together, by working bi-topologically: switching between the…
In the first part of this paper, we show that the Cauchy problem for wave propagation in some static spacetimes presenting a singular time-like boundary is well posed, if we only demand the waves to have finite energy, although no boundary…
Let $G$ be a simple Lie Group with finite center, and let $K\subset G$ be a maximal compact subgroup. We say that $G$ is a Lie group of tube type if $G/K$ is a hermitian symmetric space of tube type. For such a Lie group $G$, we can find a…
We present forms of the classical Riesz-Kolmogorov theorem for compactness that are applicable in a wide variety of settings. In particular, our theorems apply to classify the precompact subsets of the Lebesgue space $L^2$, Paley-Wiener…
This paper studies the reduction by symmetry of variational problems on Lie groups and Riemannian homogeneous spaces. We derive the reduced equations of motion in the case of Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant metric, and on Lie…
