A new analytical formulation is prescribed to solve the Helmholtz equation in 2D with arbitrary boundary. A suitable diffeomorphism is used to annul the asymmetries in the boundary by mapping it into an equivalent circle. This results in a…
The paper considers the plane one-dimensional flows for magnetohydrodynamics in the mass Lagrangian coordinates. The inviscid, thermally non-conducting medium is modeled by a polytropic gas. The equations are examined for symmetries and…
We derive a priori second order estimates for solutions of a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds under some very general structure conditions. We treat both equations on closed manifolds, and the Dirichlet…
In a recent paper, we established optimal Liouville-type theorems for conformally invariant second-order elliptic equations in the Euclidean space. In this work, we prove an optimal Liouville-type theorem for these equations in the…
We establish two geometric inequalities, respectively, for harmonic functions in exterior Dirichlet problems, and for Green's functions in interior Dirichlet problems, where the boundary surfaces are smooth and convex. Both inequalities…
We show that for any uniformly elliptic fully nonlinear second-order equation with bounded measurable "coefficients" and bounded "free" term one can find an approximating equation which has a unique continuous and having the second…
In this two papers we deal with the relative homotopy Dirichlet problem for p-harmonic maps from compact manifolds with boundary to manifolds of non-positive sectional curvature. Notably, we give a complete solution to the problem in case…
A diffeomorphism of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds is called sectional curvature preserving if it preserves the sectional curvature of all the nondegenerate 2-planes. We consider a similar condition for degenerate 2-planes and we prove that…
In this short note, we provide a partial extension of Rivi\`ere's convervation law in higher dimensions under certain Lorentz integrability condition for the connection matrix. As an application, we obtain a conservation law for weakly…
Hyperbolic conservation laws posed on manifolds arise in many applications to geophysical flows and general relativity. Recent work by the author and his collaborators attempts to set the foundations for a study of weak solutions defined on…
The elliptic 2-Hessian equation is a fully nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE) that is related to intrinsic curvature for three dimensional manifolds. We introduce two numerical methods for this PDE: the first is provably…
This paper contains some vanishing theorems for $L^2$ harmonic forms on complete Riemannian manifolds with a weighted Poincar\'e inequality and a certain lower bound of the curvature. The results are in the spirit of Li-Wang and Lam, but…
The main aim of this paper is to study existence and stability properties of rotationally symmetric proper biharmonic maps between two $m$-dimensional models (in the sense of Greene and Wu). We obtain a complete classification of…
This paper develops methods for simplifying systems of partial differential equations that have families of conservation laws which depend on functions of the independent or dependent variables. In some cases, such methods can be combined…
Lie symmetries of a Novikov geometrically integrable equation are found and group-invariant solutions are obtained. Local conservation laws up to second order are established as well as their corresponding conserved quantities. Sufficient…
We obtain a result about propagation of geometric properties for solutions of the non-homogeneous incompressible Euler system in any dimension $N\geq2$. In particular, we investigate conservation of striated and conormal regularity, which…
Symmetry properties of conservation laws of partial differential equations are developed by using the general method of conservation law multipliers. As main results, simple conditions are given for characterizing when a conservation law…
We consider natural conformal invariants arising from the Gauss-Bonnet formulas on manifolds with boundary, and study conformal deformation problems associated to them. The key technique we used is to derive boundary C^2 estimates directly…
We give a sufficient condition, with no restrictions on the mean curvature, under which the conformal method can be used to generate solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds. The condition requires a…
