On the blowup rate of vorticity for the Euler equations in a bounded domain

Given that a solution to the 3D incompressible Euler equations on a bounded domain blows up at a time $T_\ast$ and that $T_\ast$ is the first such time, we provide pointwise-in-time lower bounds on $\|D^k\omega\|_{L^\infty(\Omega)}$ for $k \geq 1$. We also show that the Gronwall-type inequality satisfied by $\|\omega(t)\|_{L^\infty}$, in the cases that $\Omega = \mathbb{R}^3$, $\mathbb{T}^3$, or a bounded domain, exhibits wildly oscillating solutions.

Lower bounds on the blowup rate of vorticity in the Euler equations

Under the assumption that a solution to the 3D incompressible Euler equations blows up at a time $T_\ast$ and that $T_\ast $ is the first such time, we establish lower bounds on the rate of blow-up of the maximum norm of the vorticity. In particular, when the domain is $\mathbb{R}^3$ or $\mathbb{T}^3$, we provide lower bounds on $\int_{0}^{t}\Vert \omega\Vert_{L^\infty}\,ds$ and $\sup_{s\in[0,t]}\|\omega\|_{L^\infty}$ for $t$ sufficiently close to~$T_\ast$. Notably, this gives a quantitative description of the BKM blow-up criterion. Moreover, we provide pointwise-in-time lower bounds on~$\|D^k \omega\|_{L^\infty}$. Finally, we state some consequences on the blow-up rate of the derivative of the deformation tensor.

The Euler equations with variable coefficients

We establish local-in-time existence for the Euler equations on a bounded domain with space-time dependent variable coefficients, given initial data $v_0 \in H^r$ under the optimal regularity condition $r > 2.5$. In the case $r = 3$, we further prove a Beale-Kato-Majda criterion that relates blow-up in the $H^r$ norm to the BMO norm of the variable vorticity $\zeta$.

Existence of solitary waves in particle lattices with power-law forces

We prove the existence of small solitary waves for one-dimensional lattices of particles that each repel every other particle with a force that decays as a power of distance. For force exponents $\alpha+1$ with $\frac43<\alpha<3$, we employ fixed-point arguments to find near-sonic solitary waves having scaled velocity profiles close to non-degenerate solitary-wave profiles of fractional KdV or generalized Benjamin-Ono equations. These equations were recently found to approximately govern unidirectional long-wave motions in these lattices.

On long waves and solitons in particle lattices with forces of infinite range

We study waves on infinite one-dimensional lattices of particles that each interact with all others through power-law forces $F \sim r^{-\beta}$. The inverse-cube case corresponds to Calogero-Moser systems, which are well known to be completely integrable for any finite number of particles. The formal long-wave limit for unidirectional waves in these lattices is the Korteweg-de Vries equation if $\beta >4$, but with $2<\beta <4$ it is a nonlocal dispersive PDE that reduces to the Benjamin-Ono equation for $\beta=3$. For the infinite Calogero-Moser lattice, we find explicit formulas that describe solitary and periodic traveling waves.

Weak convergence of spectral shift functions revisited

We study convergence of the spectral shift function for the finite interval restrictions of a pair of full-line Schr\"odinger operators to an interval of the form $(-\ell,\ell)$ with coupled boundary conditions at the endpoints as $\ell\to \infty$ in the case when the finite interval restrictions are relatively prime to those with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using a Krein-type resolvent identity we show that the spectral shift function for the finite interval restrictions converges weakly to that for the pair of full-line Schr\"odinger operators as the length of the interval tends to infinity.
