Global regularity of weak solutions to quasilinear elliptic and parabolic equations with controlled growth
We establish global regularity for weak solutions to quasilinear divergence
form elliptic and parabolic equations over Lipschitz domains with controlled
growth conditions on low order terms. The leading coefficients belong to the
class of BMO functions with small mean oscillations with respect to .Comment: 24 pages, to be submitte
Tangential Touch between the Free and the Fixed Boundary in a Semilinear Free Boundary Problem in Two Dimensions
The main result of this paper concerns the behavior of a free boundary
arising from a minimization problem, close to the fixed boundary in two
dimensions
Partial Schauder estimates for second-order elliptic and parabolic equations
We establish Schauder estimates for both divergence and non-divergence form
second-order elliptic and parabolic equations involving H\"older semi-norms not
with respect to all, but only with respect to some of the independent
variables.Comment: CVPDE, accepted (2010)
Bloch bundles, Marzari-Vanderbilt functional and maximally localized Wannier functions
We consider a periodic Schroedinger operator and the composite Wannier
functions corresponding to a relevant family of its Bloch bands, separated by a
gap from the rest of the spectrum. We study the associated localization
functional introduced by Marzari and Vanderbilt, and we prove some results
about the existence and exponential localization of its minimizers, in
dimension d < 4. The proof exploits ideas and methods from the theory of
harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds.Comment: 37 pages, no figures. V2: the appendix has been completely rewritten.

Multipoint Schur algorithm and orthogonal rational functions: convergence properties, I
Classical Schur analysis is intimately connected to the theory of orthogonal
polynomials on the circle [Simon, 2005]. We investigate here the connection
between multipoint Schur analysis and orthogonal rational functions.
Specifically, we study the convergence of the Wall rational functions via the
development of a rational analogue to the Szeg\H o theory, in the case where
the interpolation points may accumulate on the unit circle. This leads us to
generalize results from [Khrushchev,2001], [Bultheel et al., 1999], and yields
asymptotics of a novel type.Comment: a preliminary version, 39 pages; some changes in the Introduction,
Section 5 (Szeg\H o type asymptotics) is extende
Riesz potentials and nonlinear parabolic equations
The spatial gradient of solutions to nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations
can be pointwise estimated by the caloric Riesz potential of the right hand
side datum, exactly as in the case of the heat equation. Heat kernels type
estimates persist in the nonlinear cas
Endpoint Estimates for N-dimensional Hardy Operators and Their Commutators
In this paper, it is proved that the higher dimensional Hardy operator is
bounded from Hardy space to Lebesgue space. The endpoint estimate for the
commutator generated by Hardy operator and (central) BMO function is also
discussed.Comment: 8 page
