We perform the asymptotic analysis of parabolic equations with stiff transport terms. This kind of problem occurs, for example, in collisional gyrokinetic theory for tokamak plasmas, where the velocity diffusion of the collision mechanism…
Using methods of kinetic theory and liquid state theory we propose a description of the non-equilibrium behavior of molecular fluids which takes into account their microscopic structure and thermodynamic properties. The present work…
Using infinite compositions, we solve the general equations $P(\lambda w) = p(w)f(P(w))$ for holomorphic functions $p$ and $f$. We describe the situations in which this equation is palpable; and their effectiveness at describing dynamical…
Uniqueness of positive solutions to viscous Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations of the form $-\Delta u(x) + \frac{1}{\gamma} |D{u}(x)|^\gamma = f(x) - \lambda$, with $f$ a coercive function and $\lambda$ a constant, in the subquadratic…
Energy-transport equations for the transport of fermions in optical lattices are formally derived from a Boltzmann transport equation with a periodic lattice potential in the diffusive limit. The limit model possesses a formal gradient-flow…
This work introduces a new approach to velocity averaging lemmas in kinetic theory. This approach -- based upon the classical energy method -- provides a powerful duality principle in kinetic transport equations which allows for a natural…
We study the nonlinear steady Boltzmann equation in the half space, with phase transition and Dirichlet boundary condition. In particular, we study the regularity of the solution to the half-space problem in the situation that the gas is in…
We introduce a new method which resolves the problem of regularity and compactness of entropy solutions for nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations under non-degeneracy conditions on the sphere. In particular, we address a problem of…
A generalised phase-space kinetic Boltzmann equation for highly non-equilibrium charged particle transport via localised and delocalised states is used to develop continuity, momentum and energy balance equations, accounting explicitly for…
In connection with the optimization problem $$\inf_{x\in argmin \Psi}\{\Phi(x)+\Theta(x)\},$$ where $\Phi$ is a proper, convex and lower semicontinuous function and $\Theta$ and $\Psi$ are convex and smooth functions defined on a real…
In this paper we propose a new method to stabilise non-symmetric indefinite problems. The idea is to solve a forward and an adjoint problem simultaneously using a suitable stabilised finite element method. Both stabilisation of the element…
We prove an Hopf-Lax-Oleinik formula for the solutions of some Hamilton- Jacobi equations on a general metric space. As a first consequence, we show in full gener- ality that the log-Sobolev inequality is equivalent to an hypercontractivity…
We study the regularity of optimal transport maps between convex domains with quadratic cost. For nondegenerate $C^{\alpha}$-densities, we prove $C^{1, 1-\varepsilon}$-regularity of the potentials up to the boundary. If in addition the…
The standard smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method suffers from tensile instability, resulting in particle clumping and void regions under negative pressure conditions. In this study, we extend the transport-velocity formulation of…
The paper considers the Euler system of PDE on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of positive curvature without boundary, and the sphere ${\mathbb{S}}^2$ in particular. The paper interprets the Euler equations as a transport problem for…
On a Riemannian manifold, lower Ricci curvature bounds are known to be characterized by geodesic convexity properties of various entropies with respect to the Kantorovich-Rubinstein-Wasserstein square distance from optimal transportation.…
We derive the relativistic Vlasov equation from quantum Hartree dynamics for fermions with relativistic dispersion in the mean-field scaling, which is naturally linked with an effective semiclassic limit. Similar results in the…
We derive the relativistic non-resistive, viscous second-order magnetohydrodynamic equations for the dissipative quantities using the relaxation time approximation. The Boltzmann equation is solved for a system of particles and…
We study the branch of semi-stable and unstable solutions (i.e., those whose Morse index is at most one) of the Dirichlet boundary value problem $-\Delta u=\frac{\lambda f(x)}{(1-u)^2}$ on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^N$, which…
We analyse the linear kinetic transport equation with a BGK relaxation operator. We study the large scale hyperbolic limit $(t,x)\to (t/\eps,x/\eps)$. We derive a new type of limiting Hamilton-Jacobi equation, which is analogous to the…
