Smoothing estimates for the kinetic transport equation at the critical regularity
We prove smoothing estimates for velocity averages of the kinetic transport
equation in hyperbolic Sobolev spaces at the critical regularity, leading to a
complete characterisation of the allowable regularity exponents. Such estimates
will be deduced from some mixed-norm estimates for the cone multiplier operator
at a certain critical index. Our argument is not particular to the geometry of
the cone and we illustrate this by establishing analogous estimates for the
paraboloid
H\"{o}lder continuity of solutions to the kinematic dynamo equations
We study the propagation of regularity of solutions to a three dimensional
system of linear parabolic PDE known as the kinematic dynamo equations. The
divergence free drift velocity is assumed to be at the critical regularity
level with respect to the natural scaling of the equations.Comment: 10 page
On the Endpoint Regularity in Onsager's Conjecture
Onsager's conjecture states that the conservation of energy may fail for
incompressible Euler flows with H\"{o}lder regularity below . This
conjecture was recently solved by the author, yet the endpoint case remains an
interesting open question with further connections to turbulence theory. In
this work, we construct energy non-conserving solutions to the
incompressible Euler equations with space-time H\"{o}lder regularity converging
to the critical exponent at small spatial scales and containing the entire
range of exponents .
Our construction improves the author's previous result towards the endpoint
case. To obtain this improvement, we introduce a new method for optimizing the
regularity that can be achieved by a general convex integration scheme. A
crucial point is to avoid power-losses in frequency in the estimates of the
iteration. This goal is achieved using localization techniques of
\cite{IOnonpd} to modify the convex integration scheme.
We also prove results on general solutions at the critical regularity that
may not conserve energy. These include the fact that singularites of positive
space-time Lebesgue measure are necessary for any energy non-conserving
solution to exist while having critical regularity of an integrability exponent
greater than three
