On well-posedness theory of very weak solutions to Navier-Stokes equations on irregular domains with nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary data

The well-posedness theory of very weak solutions is a central topic in mathematical hydrodynamics, especially in the regularity theory for Navier-Stokes equations. It has been fully developed for incompressible fluid flows on bounded domains in R^3 of C^{2,1}-regularity. In this paper, based on the analytic theories in [D. Breit and A. Gaudin, ArXiv Preprint: 2511.19091 (2025)] and [V.G. Maz'ya and T.O. Shaposhnikova, Vol.337, Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften (2009)], we establish the well-posedness theory of very weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations on bounded Lipschitz domains whose boundary has local graphing functions with sufficiently small Sobolev multiplier norm, which contain the bounded Lipschitz domains with sufficiently small Lipschitz constants as a special case.

A compensated compactness theorem for pseudodifferential operators on vector bundles

We establish a compensated compactness theorem in the microlocal and geometric analytic framework. For a weakly $L^2_{\rm loc}$-convergent sequence of sections of a vector bundle over a semi-Riemannian manifold whose image under a pseudo-differential operator $\mathscr{A}$ of order $s>0$ is precompact in $H^{-s}_{\rm loc}$, we show that a quadratic form $Q$ acting on this sequence converges in the distributional sense, provided that $Q$ vanishes on the operator cone of $\mathscr{A}$. This extends the classical Murat--Tartar theory of compensated compactness from constant-coefficient first-order differential constraints on Euclidean spaces to variable-coefficient pseudo-differential constraints of arbitrary order on semi-Riemannian manifolds.

Spacetime decay of mild solutions and conditional quantitative transfer of regularity of the incompressible Navier--Stokes Equations from $\mathbb{R}^n$ to bounded domains

We are concerned with the "transfer of regularity" phenomenon for the incompressible Navier--Stokes Equations (NSE) in dimension $n \geq 3$; that is, the strong solutions of NSE on $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be nicely approximated by those on sufficiently large domains $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ under the no-slip boundary condition. Based on the space-time decay estimates of mild solutions of NSE established by [On space-time decay properties of nonstationary incompressible Navier-Stokes flows in $\mathbb{R}^n$, Funkcial. Ekvac. 43 (2000);$L^2$ decay for weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations, Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 88 (1985)] and others, we obtain quantitative estimates for the ``transfer of regularity'' on higher-order derivatives of velocity and pressure under the smallness assumptions of the Stokes' system and/or the initial velocity, thus complementing the results obtained by [Using periodic boundary conditions to approximate the Navier-Stokes equations on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and the transfer of regularity, Nonlinearity 34 (2021)] and [Quantitative transfer of regularity of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations from $\Bbb R^3$ to the case of a bounded domain, J. Math. Fluid Mech. 23 (2021)].

On local solubility of Bao--Ratiu equations on surfaces related to the geometry of diffeomorphism group

We are concerned with the existence of asymptotic directions for the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of a closed 2-dimensional surface $(Σ,g)$ within the full diffeomorphism group, described by the Bao--Ratiu equations, a system of second-order PDEs introduced in [On a non-linear equation related to the geometry of the diffeomorphism group, Pacific J. Math. 158 (1993); On the geometric origin and the solvability of a degenerate Monge--Ampere equation, Proc. Symp. Pure Math. 54 (1993)]. It is known [The Bao--Ratiu equations on surfaces, Proc. R. Soc. Lond. A 449 (1995)] that asymptotic directions cannot exist globally on any $Σ$ with positive curvature. To complement this result, we prove that asymptotic directions always exist locally about a point $x_0 \in Σ$ in either of the following cases (where $K$ is the Gaussian curvature on $Σ$): (a), $K(x_0)>0$; (b) $K(x_0)<0$; or (c), $K$ changes sign cleanly at $x_0$, i.e., $K(x_0)=0$ and $\nabla K(x_0) \neq 0$. The key ingredient of the proof is the analysis following Han [On the isometric embedding of surfaces with Gauss curvature changing sign cleanly, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 58 (2005)] of a degenerate Monge--Ampère equation -- which is of the elliptic, hyperbolic, and mixed types in cases (a), (b), and (c), respectively -- locally equivalent to the Bao--Ratiu equations.

On the fundamental theorem of submanifold theory and isometric immersions with supercritical low regularity

A fundamental result in global analysis and nonlinear elasticity asserts that given a solution $\mathfrak{S}$ to the Gauss--Codazzi--Ricci equations over a simply-connected closed manifold $(\mathcal{M}^n,g)$, one may find an isometric immersion $ι$ of $(\mathcal{M}^n,g)$ into the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$ whose extrinsic geometry coincides with $\mathfrak{S}$. Here the dimension $n$ and the codimension $k$ are arbitrary. Abundant literature has been devoted to relaxing the regularity assumptions on $\mathfrak{S}$ and $ι$. The best result up to date is $\mathfrak{S} \in L^p$ and $ι\in W^{2,p}$ for $p>n \geq 3$ or $p=n=2$. In this paper, we extend the above result to $ι\in \mathcal{X}$ whose topology is strictly weaker than $W^{2,n}$ for $n \geq 3$. Indeed, $\mathcal{X}$ is the weak Morrey space $L^{p, n-p}_{2,w}$ with arbitrary $p \in ]2,n]$. This appears to be first supercritical result in the literature on the existence of isometric immersions with low regularity, given the solubility of the Gauss--Codazzi--Ricci equations. Our proof essentially utilises the theory of Uhlenbeck gauges -- in particular, Rivière--Struwe's work [Partial regularity for harmonic maps and related problems, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 61 (2008)] on harmonic maps in arbitrary dimensions and codimensions -- and compensated compactness.

Nematic-Isotropic phase transition in Beris-Edward system at critical temperature

We are concerned with the sharp interface limit for the Beris-Edward system in a bounded domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ in this paper. The system can be described as the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with an evolution equation for the Q-tensor. We prove that the solutions to the Beris-Edward system converge to the corresponding solutions of a sharp interface model under well-prepared initial data, as the thickness of the diffuse interfacial zone tends to zero. Moreover, we give not only the spatial decay estimates of the velocity vector field in the $H^1$ sense but also the error estimates of the phase field. The analysis relies on the relative entropy method and elaborated energy estimates.

A wedge product theorem of compensated compactness theory with critical exponents on Riemannian manifolds

We formulate and prove compensated compactness theorems concerning the limiting behaviour of wedge products of weakly convergent differential forms on closed Riemannian manifolds \`{a} la Robbin--Rogers--Temple [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 303 (1987), 609--618]. The case of critical regularity exponents is considered, which generalises the div-curl lemma in Briane--Casado-D\'{i}az--Murat [J. Math. Pures Appl. 91 (2009), 476--494] for vectorfields, thus going beyond the regularity regime entailed by H\"{o}lder's inequality. Implications on the weak continuity of Gauss--Codazz--Ricci equations and $L^p$-extrinsic geometry of isometric immersions of Riemannian manifolds are discussed.

Sharp interface limit for inhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system in a bounded domain via a relative energy method

This paper concerns the sharp interface limit of solutions to the inhomogeneous incompressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn coupled system in a bounded domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^n,\ n =2,3$. Based on a relative energy method, we prove that the solutions to the Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system converge to the corresponding solutions to a sharp interface model provided that the thickness of the diffuse interfacial zone goes to zero. It is noted that the relative energy method can avoid both the spectral estimates of the linearized Allen-Cahn operator and the construction of approximate solutions by the matched asymptotic expansion method in the study of the sharp interface limit process. And some suitable functionals are designed and estimated by elaborated energy methods accordingly.

Remarks on Sharp Interface Limit for an Incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn Coupled System

We are concerned with the sharp interface limit for an incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn coupled system in this paper. When the thickness of the diffuse interfacial zone, which is parameterized by $\varepsilon$, goes to zero, we prove that a solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn coupled system converges to a solution of a sharp interface model in the $L^\infty(L^2)\cap L^2(H^1)$ sense on a uniform time interval independent of the small parameter $\varepsilon$. The proof consists of two parts: one is the construction of a suitable approximate solution and another is the estimate of the error functions in Sobolev spaces. Besides the careful energy estimates, a spectral estimate of the linearized operator for the incompressible Navier-Stokes and Allen-Cahn coupled system around the approximate solution is essentially used to derive the uniform estimates of the error functions. The convergence of the velocity is well expected due to the fact that the layer of the velocity across the diffuse interfacial zone is relatively weak.
