The asymptotic behavior of geometry near the boundary of maximal Cauchy development is studied using a perturbative method, which at the zeroth order reduces Einstein's equations to an exactly solvable set of equations---Einstein's…

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the one-dimensional compressible isentropic magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations with no vacuum at infinity, but the initial vacuum can be permitted inside the region. By deriving a priori…

We are concerned with the Cauchy problem of the two-dimensional (2D) nonhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with vacuum as far-field density. It is proved that if the initial density decays not too slow at infinity, the 2D…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on the whole space. After introducing a weaker concept of finite speed of propagation, we show that the concatenation of initial data gives rise to solutions whose time…

A method of solving the eikonal equation, in either flat or curved space-times, with arbitrary Cauchy data, is extended to the case of data given on a characteristic surface. We find a beautiful relationship between the Cauchy and…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the equations of pressureless gases in two space dimensions. For a generic set of smooth initial data (density and velocity), it is known that the solution loses regularity at a finite time $t_0$, where…

This paper studies a space-inhomogeneous Boltzmann-Nordheim equation with pseudo-Maxwellian forces. Strong solutions are obtained for the Cauchy problem in a setting with large bounded L1 initial data. The main results are existence,…

We analyze the initial value problem for scalar fields obeying the Klein-Gordon equation. The standard Cauchy initial value problem for second order differential equation is to construct a solution function in a neighborhood of space and…

We start with the classic result that the Cauchy problem for ideal compressible gas dynamics is locally well posed in time in the sense of Hadamard; there is a unique solution that depends continuously on initial data in Sobolev space $H^s$…

In this paper, we consider Cauchy problem of simplified Ericksen-Leslie system in dimension three. We establish the unique existence of global smooth solution under some nonlinear conditions on initial data. However, we do not need small…

We consider the Einstein-Maxwell-fluid constraint equations, and make use of the conformal method to construct and parametrize constant-mean-curvature hyperboloidal initial data sets that satisfy the shear-free condition. This condition is…

The paper is concerned with sticky weak solutions to the equations of pressureless gases in two or more space dimensions. Various initial data are constructed, showing that the Cauchy problem can have (i) two distinct sticky solutions, or…

We study first-order symmetrizable hyperbolic $N\times N$ systems in a spacetime cylinder whose lateral boundary is totally characteristic. In local coordinates near the boundary at $x=0$, these systems take the form \[ \partial_t u +…

We describe a proof of M.T. Anderson's result on the rigidity of complete stationary initial data for the Einstein vacuum equations in spacetime dimension 3 + 1, under an extra assumption on the norm of the stationary Killing vector field.…

We consider a general Euler-Korteweg-Poisson system in $R^3$, supplemented with the space periodic boundary conditions, where the quantum hydrodynamics equations and the classical fluid dynamics equations with capillarity are recovered as…

We study the asymptotic behaviour in time of solutions and the theory of scattering for the modified Schr"odinger map in two space dimensions. We solve the Cauchy problem with large finite initial time, up to infinity in time, and we…

We consider gravitational field equations which are Einstein equations written in terms of embedding coordinates in some higher dimensional Minkowski space. Our main focus is to address some tricky issues relating to the Cauchy problem and…

This thesis describes the application of numerical techniques to solve Einstein's field equations in three distinct cases. First we present the first long-term stable second order convergent Cauchy characteristic matching code in…

Here we investigate the Cauchy problem for the inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations in the whole $n$-dimensional space. Under some smallness assumption on the data, we show the existence of global-in-time unique solutions in a critical…

We study the scalar, conformally invariant wave equation on a four-dimensional Minkowski background in spherical symmetry, using a fully pseudospectral numerical scheme. Thereby, our main interest is in a suitable treatment of spatial…
