AbstractIn this paper we establish the well-posedness of the Muskat problem with surface tension and equal viscosities in the subcritical Sobolev spaces $$W^s_p(\mathbb {R})$$ W p s ( R ) , where $${p\in (1,2]}$$ p ∈ ( 1 , 2 ] and $${s\in (1+1/p,2)}$$ s ∈ ( 1 + 1 / p , 2 ) . This is achieved by showing that the mathematical model can be formulated as a quasilinear parabolic evolution problem in $$W^{\overline{s}-2}_p(\mathbb {R})$$ W p s ¯ - 2 ( R ) , where $${\overline{s}\in (1+1/p,s)}$$ s ¯ ∈ ( 1 + 1 / p , s ) . Moreover, we prove that the solutions become instantly smooth and we provide a criterion for the global existence of solutions.

We consider the problem of well-posedness and regularity of solutions for a dynamic von Kármán plate which is clamped along one portion of the boundary and which experiences boundary damping through “free edge” conditions on the remainder of the boundary. We prove the existence of unique strong solutions for this system

A mathematical analysis is carried out for the Cahn–Hilliard equation where the free energy takes the form of a double well potential function with infinite walls. Existence and uniqueness are proved for a weak formulation of the problem which possesses a Lyapunov functional. Regularity results are presented for the weak formulation, and consideration is given to the asymptotic behaviour as the time becomes infinite. An investigation of the associated stationary problem is undertaken proving the existence of a nontrivial stationary solution and further regularity results for any stationary solution. Stationary solutions are constructed in one and two dimensions; a formula for the number of stationary solutions in one dimension is derived. It is then natural to study the asymptotic behaviour as the phenomenological parameter λ→0, the main result being that the interface between the two phases has minimal area.

We consider the Cauchy problem associated with the Chern–Simons–Dirac system in ℝ1+2. Using gauge invariance, we reduce the Chern–Simons–Dirac system to a Dirac equation and we uncover the null structure of this Dirac equation. Next, relying on null structure estimates, we establish that the Cauchy problem associated with this Dirac equation is locally-in-time well-posed in the Sobolev space Hs for all s > 1/4. Our proof uses modified L4-type estimates.
