Analytical Solutions to the Navier-Stokes Equations
With the previous results for the analytical blowup solutions of the
N-dimensional Euler-Poisson equations, we extend the similar structure to
construct an analytical family of solutions for the isothermal Navier-Stokes
equations and pressureless Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent
viscosity.Comment: 13 pages, Typos are correcte
Existence and stability of solitons for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on hyperbolic space
We study the existence and stability of ground state solutions or solitons to
a nonlinear stationary equation on hyperbolic space. The method of
concentration compactness applies and shows that the results correlate strongly
to those of Euclidean space.Comment: New: As noted in Banica-Duyckaerts (arXiv:1411.0846), Section 5
should read that for sufficiently large mass, sub-critical problems can be
solved via energy minimization for all d \geq 2 and as a result
Cazenave-Lions results can be applied in Section 6 with the same restriction.
These requirements were addressed by the subsequent work with Metcalfe and
Taylor in arXiv:1203.361
On Singularity formation for the L^2-critical Boson star equation
We prove a general, non-perturbative result about finite-time blowup
solutions for the -critical boson star equation in 3 space dimensions. Under
the sole assumption that the solution blows up in at finite time, we
show that has a unique weak limit in and that has a
unique weak limit in the sense of measures. Moreover, we prove that the
limiting measure exhibits minimal mass concentration. A central ingredient used
in the proof is a "finite speed of propagation" property, which puts a strong
rigidity on the blowup behavior of .
As the second main result, we prove that any radial finite-time blowup
solution converges strongly in away from the origin. For radial
solutions, this result establishes a large data blowup conjecture for the
-critical boson star equation, similar to a conjecture which was
originally formulated by F. Merle and P. Raphael for the -critical
nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in [CMP 253 (2005), 675-704].
We also discuss some extensions of our results to other -critical
theories of gravitational collapse, in particular to critical Hartree-type
equations.Comment: 24 pages. Accepted in Nonlinearit
Global Newtonian limit for the Relativistic Boltzmann Equation near Vacuum
We study the Cauchy Problem for the relativistic Boltzmann equation with near
Vacuum initial data. Unique global in time "mild" solutions are obtained
uniformly in the speed of light parameter . We furthermore prove that
solutions to the relativistic Boltzmann equation converge to solutions of the
Newtonian Boltzmann equation in the limit as on arbitrary time
intervals , with convergence rate for any . This may be the first proof of unique global in time validity of the
Newtonian limit for a Kinetic equation.Comment: 35 page
On Nonlinear Stochastic Balance Laws
We are concerned with multidimensional stochastic balance laws. We identify a
class of nonlinear balance laws for which uniform spatial bounds for
vanishing viscosity approximations can be achieved. Moreover, we establish
temporal equicontinuity in of the approximations, uniformly in the
viscosity coefficient. Using these estimates, we supply a multidimensional
existence theory of stochastic entropy solutions. In addition, we establish an
error estimate for the stochastic viscosity method, as well as an explicit
estimate for the continuous dependence of stochastic entropy solutions on the
flux and random source functions. Various further generalizations of the
results are discussed

On the dynamics of WKB wave functions whose phase are weak KAM solutions of H-J equation
In the framework of toroidal Pseudodifferential operators on the flat torus
we begin by proving the closure under
composition for the class of Weyl operators with
simbols . Subsequently, we
consider when where and we exhibit the toroidal version of the
equation for the Wigner transform of the solution of the Schr\"odinger
equation. Moreover, we prove the convergence (in a weak sense) of the Wigner
transform of the solution of the Schr\"odinger equation to the solution of the
Liouville equation on written in the measure sense.
These results are applied to the study of some WKB type wave functions in the
Sobolev space with phase functions in the class
of Lipschitz continuous weak KAM solutions (of positive and negative type) of
the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for with , and to the study of the
backward and forward time propagation of the related Wigner measures supported
on the graph of
Phase Space Models for Stochastic Nonlinear Parabolic Waves: Wave Spread and Singularity
We derive several kinetic equations to model the large scale, low Fresnel
number behavior of the nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation with a rapidly
fluctuating random potential. There are three types of kinetic equations the
longitudinal, the transverse and the longitudinal with friction. For these
nonlinear kinetic equations we address two problems: the rate of dispersion and
the singularity formation.
For the problem of dispersion, we show that the kinetic equations of the
longitudinal type produce the cubic-in-time law, that the transverse type
produce the quadratic-in-time law and that the one with friction produces the
linear-in-time law for the variance prior to any singularity.
For the problem of singularity, we show that the singularity and blow-up
conditions in the transverse case remain the same as those for the homogeneous
NLS equation with critical or supercritical self-focusing nonlinearity, but
they have changed in the longitudinal case and in the frictional case due to
the evolution of the Hamiltonian
Strong and weak semiclassical limits for some rough Hamiltonians
We present several results concerning the semiclassical limit of the time
dependent Schr\"odinger equation with potentials whose regularity doesn't
guarantee the uniqueness of the underlying classical flow. Different topologies
for the limit are considered and the situation where two bicharateristics can
be obtained out of the same initial point is emphasized
