Higher derivative estimates for Stokes equations with closely spaced rigid inclusions in three dimensions

In this paper, we establish higher-order derivative estimates for the Stokes equations in a three-dimensional domain containing two closely spaced rigid inclusions. We construct a sequence of auxiliary functions via an inductive process to isolate the leading singular terms of higher-order derivatives within the narrow region between the inclusions. For a class of convex inclusions of general shapes, the construction of three-dimensional auxiliary functions -- unlike the two-dimensional case -- relies on the decay properties of solutions to a class of two-dimensional partial differential equations with singular coefficients. Taking advantage of this, we obtain pointwise upper bounds of derivatives up to the seventh order for general inclusions. Under additional symmetry conditions, we derive optimal estimates for derivatives of arbitrary order. Consequently, we obtain precise blow-up rates for the Cauchy stress and its higher-order derivatives in the narrow region between the inclusions.

Optimal higher derivative estimates for Stokes equations with closely spaced rigid inclusions

In this paper, we study the interaction between two closely spaced rigid inclusions suspended in a Stokes flow. It is well known that the stress significantly amplifies in the narrow region between the inclusions as the distance between them approaches zero. To gain deeper insight into these interactions, we derive high-order derivative estimates for the Stokes equation in the presence of two rigid inclusions in two dimensions. Our approach resonates with the method used to handle the incompressibility constraint in the standard convex integration scheme. Under certain symmetric assumptions on the domain, these estimates are shown to be optimal. As a result, we establish the precise blow-up rates of the Cauchy stress and its higher-order derivatives in the narrow region.

Optimal higher derivative estimates for solutions of the Lam\'e system with closely spaced hard inclusions

We investigate higher derivative estimates for the Lam\'e system with hard inclusions embedded in a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. As the distance $\varepsilon$ between two closely spaced hard inclusions approaches zero, the stress in the narrow regions between the inclusions increases significantly. This stress is captured by the gradient of the solution. The key contribution of this paper is a detailed characterization of this singularity, achieved by deriving higher derivative estimates for solutions to the Lam\'e system with partially infinite coefficients. These upper bounds are shown to be sharp in two and three dimensions when the domain exhibits certain symmetries. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to precisely quantify the singular behavior of higher derivatives in the Lam\'e system with hard inclusions.
