Navier-Stokes equations with periodic boundary conditions and pressure loss

Abstract

We present in this note the existence and uniqueness results for the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations which model the laminar flow of an incompressible fluid inside a two-dimensional channel of periodic sections. The data of the pressure loss coefficient enables us to establish a relation on the pressure and to thus formulate an equivalent problem.

Global higher integrability and Hardy inequalities for double-phase functionals under a capacity density condition

We prove global higher integrability for functionals of double-phase type under a uniform local capacity density condition on the complement of the considered domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$. In this context, we investigate a new natural notion of variational capacity associated to the double-phase integrand. Under the related fatness condition for the complement of $Ω$, we establish an integral Hardy inequality. Further, we show that fatness of $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus Ω$ is equivalent to a boundary Poincaré inequality, a pointwise Hardy inequality and to the local uniform $p$-fatness of $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus Ω$. We provide a counterexample that shows that the expected Maz'ya type inequality - a key intermediate step toward global higher integrability - does not hold with the notion of capacity involving the double-phase functional itself.

Modulus of continuity for solutions of non-local heat equations

We extend the two-point modulus-of-continuity method for parabolic equations---as used, for instance, in the proof of the fundamental gap conjecture---to non-local heat equations on $\R^n$. An initial modulus of continuity is shown to be preserved provided that its odd extension is a supersolution of an associated one-dimensional non-local equation. The result applies to both integrable and singular kernels, including the fractional Laplacian, and the method further applies to a class of nonlinear non-local heat equations on $\R^n$. We also examine the corresponding regional problem on bounded convex sets. The natural distance-only modulus comparison fails: a smooth counterexample is constructed in one dimension, and the same obstruction is demonstrated to persist in higher dimensions. For the regional fractional Laplacian, we define convex domains of fixed diameter for which the first non-trivial eigenvalue tends to zero. There is consequently no positive Payne--Weinberger-type lower bound for this eigenvalue depending only on the diameter of the domain.

Global Regularity for Non-resistive or Non-viscous MHD System on the Torus

In this paper, we establish the global well-posedness of the incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) system on $n-$dimensional $(n\geq 2)$ periodic boxes with either no magnetic diffusivity (non-resistive case) or no fluid viscosity (non-viscous case) under assumption that initial magnetic fields are sufficiently close to the background magnetic field ${\bf e}_n=(0,\cdots,0,1)$. In Eulerian coordinates, we develop novel time-weighted energy estimates and commutator estimates involving Riesz transforms in negative Sobolev spaces to handle two distinct dissipation cases under different initial symmetry assumptions. The analysis becomes much more difficult and delicate in three- or higher-dimensional cases. In particular, for the three-dimensional and non-resistive case, compared with the regularity requirement proposed by Pan, Zhou and Zhu {\it [Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 2018]}, our result relaxes it from $H^{11}(\mathbb{T}^3)$ to $H^{\frac{9}{2}+}(\mathbb{T}^3)$. And we further establish precise decay rates and growth bounds for both $u(t)$ and $\partial_n(u(t),b(t))$ in Sobolev norms. For the three-dimensional and non-viscous case, we prove the first nonlinear stability result near the background field $\mathbf{e}_3 = (0,0,1)$. This sharply contrasts with the recent blow-up results on the 3D incompressible Euler equations by Elgindi {\it [Ann. Math. 2021]}, Chen-Hou {\it [Commun. Math. Phys. 2021]} and by Chen-Hou {\it [arXiv:2210.07191]}. Our results show that, under certain symmetry assumptions, magnetic fields near the background field provide enhanced dissipations and suppress potential blow-up mechanisms in non-viscous MHD system.
