This paper is concerned with H\"older regularity of viscosity solutions of second-order, fully non-linear elliptic integro-differential equations. Our results rely on two key ingredients: first we assume that, at each point of the domain,…
We consider the flow of an { ideal} fluid in a 2D-bounded domain, admitting flows through the boundary of this domain. The flow is described by Euler equations with \textit{non-homogeneous } Navier slip boundary conditions. These conditions…
A two-dimensional body, exhibiting a slight rotational movement, moves in a rarefied medium of particles which collide with it in a perfectly elastic way. In previously realized investigations by the first two authors, Plakhov & Gouveia…

In this paper we argue that differential rotation can possibly sustain hydrodynamic turbulence in the absence of magnetic field. We explain why the non-linearities of the hydrodynamic equations (i.e. turbulent diffusion) should not be…
We discuss the linear response to low-frequency tidal forcing of fluid bodies that are slowly and uniformly rotating, are neutrally stratified and may contain a solid or fluid core. This problem may be regarded as a simplified model of…
We introduce a notion of stability for non-autonomous Hamiltonian flows on two-dimensional annular surfaces. This notion of stability is designed to capture the sustained twisting of particle trajectories. The main Theorem is applied to…
The flow of a colloidal solution between two parallel disks rotating with the same angular velocity about two non-coincident axes was studied. The problem has been approached from two perspectives, the first wherein the stress is expressed…
We study the orientation dynamics of two-dimensional concavo-convex solid bodies more dense than the fluid through which they fall under gravity. We show that the orientation dynamics of the body, quantified in terms of the angle $\phi$…
