We consider the so-called G-equation, a level set Hamilton-Jacobi equation, used as a sharp interface model for flame propagation, perturbed by an oscillatory advection in a spatio-temporal periodic environment. Assuming that the advection…

Motivated by the classical picture of heat flow we construct a stationary temperature gradient in a relativistic microscopic transport model. Employing the relativistic Navier-Stokes ansatz we extract the heat conductivity {\kappa} for a…

We examine the question of uniqueness for the equivariant reduction of the harmonic map heat flow in the energy supercritical dimension. It is shown that, generically, singular data can give rise to two distinct solutions which are both…

We establish existence of global-in-time weak solutions to the one dimensional, compressible Navier-Stokes system for a viscous and heat conducting ideal polytropic gas (pressure $p=K\theta/\tau$, internal energy $e=c_v \theta$), when the…

In this paper we determine quantitative stability bounds for the Hessian of entropic potentials, \ie, the dual solution to the entropic optimal transport problem. To the authors' knowledge this is the first work addressing this second-order…

We are concerned with the large-time behavior of solutions to the initial and initial boundary value problems with large initial data for the compressible Navier-Stokes system with degenerate heat-conductivity describing the one-dimensional…

We study the convexity of mutual information as a function of time along the Fokker-Planck flow. The results are generalizations of that along heat flow and Ornstein-Ulenbeck flow, which were established by A. Wibisono and V. Jog. We prove…

We derive mean-field information Hessian matrices on finite graphs. The "information" refers to entropy functions on the probability simplex. And the "mean-field" means nonlinear weight functions of probabilities supported on graphs. These…

Let $M$ be a closed Riemannian manifold with a family of Riemannian metrics $g_{ij}(t)$ evolving by a geometric flow $\partial_{t}g_{ij} = -2{S}_{ij}$, where $S_{ij}(t)$ is a family of smooth symmetric two-tensors. We derive several…

The Polyak-Lojasiewicz (PL) constant of a function $f \colon \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$ characterizes the best exponential rate of convergence of gradient flow for $f$, uniformly over initializations. Meanwhile, in the theory of Markov…

We establish uniform bounds on the low-order derivatives of Stein equation solutions for a broad class of multivariate, strongly log-concave target distributions. These "Stein factor" bounds deliver control over Wasserstein and related…

We derive an improved rigorous bound on the space and time averaged temperature $<T>$ of an infinite Prandtl number Boussinesq fluid contained between isothermal no-slip boundaries thermally driven by uniform internal heating. A novel…

We study the quantitative stability of the mapping that to a measure associates its pushforward measure by a fixed (non-smooth) optimal transport map. We exhibit a tight H\"older-behavior for this operation under minimal assumptions. Our…

Let $F:\Sigma^n \times [0,T)\to \R^{n+m}$ be a family of compact immersed submanifolds moving by their mean curvature vectors. We show the Gauss maps $\gamma:(\Sigma^n, g_t)\to G(n, m)$ form a harmonic heat flow with respect to the…

We construct solutions to the heat equation on convex rings showing that quasiconcavity may not be preserved along the flow, even for smooth and subharmonic initial data.

In this work, we investigate the estimation of the transient mold-slab heat flux in continuous casting molds given some thermocouples measurements in the mold plates. Mathematically, we can see this problem as the estimation of a Neumann…

We give a new proof of the $L^2$ version of Hardy's uncertainty principle based on calculus and on its dynamical version for the heat equation. The reasonings rely on new log-convexity properties and the derivation of optimal Gaussian decay…

We study the large-time behavior of strong solutions to the one-dimensional, compressible Navier-Stokes system for a viscous and heat conducting ideal polytropic gas, when the viscosity is constant and the heat conductivity is proportional…

We study the convexity of mutual information along the evolution of the heat equation. We prove that if the initial distribution is log-concave, then mutual information is always a convex function of time. We also prove that if the initial…

Recent advances regarding the interplay between ab initio calculations and metrology are reviewed, with particular emphasis on gas-based techniques used for temperature and pressure measurements. Since roughly 2010, several thermophysical…
