For a given $p\in[2,+\infty)$, we define the $p$-elastic energy $\mathscr{E}$ of a closed curve $\gamma:\mathbb{S}^1\to M$ immersed in a complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ as the sum of the length of the curve and the $L^p$--norm of its…
We prove full convergence of gradient-flows of the arc-length restricted tangent point energies in the Hilbert-case towards critical points. This is done through a {\L}ojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequality for these energies. In order to do…
In this three-part monograph, we prove that steady, incompressible Navier-Stokes flows posed over the moving boundary, $y = 0$, can be decomposed into Euler and Prandtl flows in the inviscid limit globally in $[1,\infty) \times [0,\infty)$,…
We demonstrate that the uniqueness of solutions to a broad class of parabolic geometric evolution equations can be proven via a direct and essentially classical energy argument which avoids the DeTurck trick entirely. Previously, we have…
We consider the Euler system describing a one-dimensional inviscid flows in space along curves of a certain class. Using differential invariants for the Euler system, we obtain its quotient equation. The solutions of the quotient equation…
We consider solutions to the two-dimensional incompressible Euler system with only integrable vorticity, thus with possibly locally infinite energy. With such regularity, we use the recently developed theory of Lagrangian flows associated…
In this paper we study a gradient flow generated by the Landau-de Gennes free energy that describes nematic liquid crystal configurations in the space of $Q$-tensors. This free energy density functional is composed of three quadratic terms…
We initiate the study of a new nonlinear parabolic equation on a Riemann surface. The evolution equation arises as a reduction of the Anomaly flow on a fibration. We obtain a criterion for long-time existence for this flow, and give a range…
We study Hamiltonian flows in a real separable Hilbert space endowed with a symplectic structure. Measures on the Hilbert space that are invariant with respect to the flows of completely integrable Hamiltonian systems are investigated.…
We illustrate the flow or wave character of the metrics and curvatures of evolving manifolds, introducing the Riemann flow and the Riemann wave via the bialternate product Riemannian metric. This kind of evolutions are new and very natural…
We study the evolution of curves with fixed length and clamped boundary conditions moving by the negative $L^2$-gradient flow of the elastic energy. For any initial curve lying merely in the energy space we show existence and parabolic…
We give a survey of recent results on flow-structure interactions modeled by a modified wave equation coupled at an interface with equations of nonlinear elasticity. Both subsonic and supersonic flow velocities are considered. The focus of…
We prove that, in a two-dimensional strip, a steady flow of an ideal incompressible fluid with no stationary point and tangential boundary conditions is a shear flow. The same conclusion holds for a bounded steady flow in a half-plane. The…
We introduce notions of dynamic gradient flows on time-dependent metric spaces as well as on time-dependent Hilbert spaces. We prove existence of solutions for a class of time dependent energy functionals in both settings. In particular we…
The flow equation approach investigated by Wegner et al. is applied to an unbounded Hamiltonian system with a generalization. We show that a well-known quantized complex energy eigenvalues which is related to decay widths can be given with…
We study the mathematical properties of time-dependent flows of incompressible fluids that respond as an Euler fluid until the modulus of the symmetric part of the velocity gradient exceeds a certain, a-priori given but arbitrarily large,…
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…
We study the existence and long-time asymptotics of weak solutions to a system of two nonlinear drift-diffusion equations that has a gradient flow structure in the Wasserstein distance. The two equations are coupled through a…
We analyse finite-time singularities of the Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow -- a natural gradient flow of the harmonic map energy -- and find a canonical way of flowing beyond them in order to construct global solutions in full generality.…
This paper addresses the problems of spline interpolation on smooth Riemannian manifolds, with or without the inclusion of least-squares fitting. Our unified approach utilizes gradient flows for successively connected curves or networks,…
