In this study, we continue our study of the Cauchy problem associated with the Brinkman equations [see (1.1) and (1.2) below] which model fluid flow in certain types of porous media. Here, we will consider the flow in the upper half-space

\[ \mathbb{R}_{+}^{3}=\left\{\left(x,y,z\right) \in\mathbb{R}^{3}\left\vert z\geqslant 0\right.\right\}, \]

$z=0$

This paper is concerned with the global regularity problem on the micropolar Rayleigh-Bénard problem with only velocity dissipation in $\mathbb {R}^{d}$ with $d=2\ or\ 3$. By fully exploiting the special structure of the system, introducing two combined quantities and using the technique of Littlewood-Paley decomposition, we establish the global regularity of solutions to this system in $\mathbb {R}^{2}$. Moreover, we obtain the global regularity for fractional hyperviscosity case in $\mathbb {R}^{3}$ by employing various techniques including energy methods, the regularization of generalized heat operators on the Fourier frequency localized functions and logarithmic Sobolev interpolation inequalities.

We present self-contained proofs of the stability of the constants in the volume doubling property and the Poincaré and Sobolev inequalities for Riemannian approximations in Carnot groups. We use an explicit Riemannian approximation based on the Lie algebra structure that is suited for studying nonlinear subelliptic partial differential equations. Our approach is independent of the results obtained in [11].

In this paper, by the moving spheres method, Caffarelli-Silvestre extension formula and blow-up analysis, we study the local behaviour of nonnegative solutions to fractional elliptic equations

We prove the partial Hölder continuity for minimizers of quasiconvex functionals

When a liquid fills the semi-infinite space between two concentric cylinders which rotate at different steady speeds, how about the shape of the free surface on top of the fluid? The different fluids will lead to a different shape. For the Newtonian fluid, the meniscus descends due to the centrifugal forces. However, for the certain non-Newtonian fluid, the meniscus climbs the internal cylinder. We want to explain the above phenomenon by a rigorous mathematical analysis theory. In the present paper, as the first step, we focus on the Newtonian fluid. This is a steady free boundary problem. We aim to establish the well-posedness of this problem. Furthermore, we prove the convergence of the formal perturbation series obtained by Joseph and Fosdick in Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 49 (1973), 321–380.

In this paper, we study a dissipative systems modelling electrohydrodynamics in incompressible viscous fluids. The system consists of the Navier–Stokes equations coupled with a classical Poisson–Nernst–Planck equations. In the three-dimensional case, we establish a global regularity criteria in terms of the middle eigenvalue of the strain tensor in the framework of the anisotropic Lorentz spaces for local smooth solution. The proof relies on the identity for entropy growth introduced by Miller in the Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. [16].

We study the small data global well-posedness and time-decay rates of solutions to the Cauchy problem for three-dimensional compressible Navier–Stokes–Allen–Cahn equations via a refined pure energy method. In particular, the optimal decay rates of the higher-order spatial derivatives of the solution are obtained, the $\dot {H}^{-s}$($0\leq s<\frac {3}{2}$) negative Sobolev norms is shown to be preserved along time evolution and enhance the decay rates.

For a quiver $Q$ with underlying graph $\Gamma$, we take $ {\mathcal {M}}$ an associated toric Nakajima quiver variety. In this article, we give a direct relation between a specialization of the Tutte polynomial of $\Gamma$, the Kac polynomial of $Q$ and the Poincaré polynomial of $ {\mathcal {M}}$. We do this by giving a cell decomposition of $ {\mathcal {M}}$ indexed by spanning trees of $\Gamma$ and ‘geometrizing’ the deletion and contraction operators on graphs. These relations have been previously established in Hausel–Sturmfels [6] and Crawley-Boevey–Van den Bergh [3], however the methods here are more hands-on.

We establish a straightforward estimate for the number of open sets with fundamental group constraints needed to cover the total space of fibrations. This leads to vanishing results for simplicial volume and minimal volume entropy, e.g., for certain mapping tori.
