The gradient of weak solutions to porous medium-type equations or systems possesses a higher integrability than the one assumed in the pure notion of a solution. We settle the critical and sub-critical, singular case and complete the program.
This paper is concerned with the self-improving property for obstacle problem related to the singular porous medium equation. We establish a local higher integrability result for the spatial gradient of the $m$-th power of nonnegative weak solutions, under some suitable regularity assumptions on the obstacle function.
We establish higher integrability up to the boundary for the gradient of solutions to porous medium type systems, whose model case is given by \begin{equation*} \partial_t u-Δ(|u|^{m-1}u)=\mathrm{div}\,F\,, \end{equation*} where $m>1$. More precisely, we prove that under suitable assumptions the spatial gradient $D(|u|^{m-1}u)$ of any weak solution is integrable to a larger power than the natural power $2$. Our analysis includes both the case of the lateral boundary and the initial boundary.
We prove local higher integrability of the spatial gradient for solutions to obstacle problems of porous medium type in the fast diffusion case $m<1$. The result holds for the natural range of exponents that is known from other regularity results for porous medium type equations. We also cover the case of signed solutions.
We study local boundedness for subsolutions of nonlinear nonuniformly elliptic equations whose prototype is given by $\nabla \cdot (λ|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)=0$, where the variable coefficient $0\leqλ$ and its inverse $λ^{-1}$ are allowed to be unbounded. Assuming certain integrability conditions on $λ$ and $λ^{-1}$ depending on $p$ and the dimension, we show local boundedness. Moreover, we provide counterexamples to regularity showing that the integrability conditions are optimal for every $p>1$.
We study local regularity properties for solutions of linear, non-uniformly elliptic equations. Assuming certain integrability conditions on the coefficient field, we prove local boundedness and Harnack inequality. The assumed integrability assumptions are essentially sharp and improve upon classical results by Trudinger [ARMA 1971]. We then apply the deterministic regularity results to the corrector equation in stochastic homogenization and establish sublinearity of the corrector.
In this paper, via applying the method developed by A. Cianchi and V. Maz'ya, the author obtains the global boundedness of the gradient for solutions to Dirichlet and Neumann problems of a class of Schrödinger equations under the minimal assumptions for integrability on the data and regularity on the boundary of the domain. Moreover, the case of arbitrary bounded semi-convex domains is also considered.
In this paper, we study the time periodic problem to a three-dimensional chemotaxis-Stokes model with porous medium diffusion $Δn^m$ and inhomogeneous mixed boundary conditions. By using a double-level approximation method and some iterative techniques, we obtain the existence and time-space uniform boundedness of weak time periodic solutions for any $m>1$. Moreover, we improve the regularity for $m\le\frac{4}{3}$ and show that the obtained periodic solutions are in fact strong periodic solutions.
We show that the gradient of solutions to degenerate parabolic equations of porous medium-type satisfies a reverse Hölder inequality in suitable intrinsic cylinders. We modify the by-now classical Gehring lemma by introducing an intrinsic Calderón-Zygmund covering argument, and we are able to prove local higher integrability of the gradient of a proper power of the solution $u$.
We deal with the obstacle problem for the porous medium equation in the slow diffusion regime $m>1$. Our main interest is to treat fairly irregular obstacles assuming only boundedness and lower semicontinuity. In particular, the considered obstacles are not regular enough to work with the classical notion of variational solutions, and a different approach is needed. We prove the existence of a solution in the sense of the minimal supersolution lying above the obstacle. As a consequence, we can show that non-negative weak supersolutions to the porous medium equation can be approximated by a seq…
In this paper, we study the consumption-chemotaxis-Stokes model with porous medium slow diffusion in a three dimensional bounded domain with zero-flux boundary conditions and no-slip boundary condition. In recent ten years, many efforts have been made to find the global bounded solutions of chemotaxis-Stokes system in three dimensional space. Although some important progress has been carried out in some papers, as mentioned by some authors, the question of identifying an optimal condition on m ensuring global boundedness in the three-dimensional framework remains an open challenge. In the pres…
We prove existence of a bounded weak solution to a degenerate quasilinear subdiffusion problem with bounded measurable coefficients that may explicitly depend on time. The kernel in the involved integro-differential operator w.r.t. time belongs to the large class of ${\cal PC}$ kernels. In particular, the case of a fractional time derivative of order less than 1 is included. A key ingredient in the proof is a new compactness criterion of Aubin-Lions type which involves function spaces defined in terms of the integro-differential operator in time. Boundedness of the solution is obtained by the …
In this note we establish existence and uniqueness of weak solutions of linear elliptic equation $\text{div}[\mathbf{A}(x) \nabla u] = \text{div}{\mathbf{F}(x)}$, where the matrix $\mathbf{A}$ is just measurable and its skew-symmetric part can be unbounded. Global reverse Hölder's regularity estimates for gradients of weak solutions are also obtained. Most importantly, we show, by providing an example, that boundedness and ellipticity of $\mathbf{A}$ is not sufficient for higher integrability estimates even when the symmetric part of $\mathbf{A}$ is the identity matrix. In addition, the exampl…
We prove the local boundedness of the solutions to degenerate second order partial differential equations of Kolmogorov type with measurable coefficients in divergence form, under minimal integrability assumption on the lower order coefficients.
We first consider two types of localizations of singular integral operators of convolution type, and show, under mild decay and smoothness conditions on the auxiliary functions, that their boundedness on the local Hardy space $h^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is equivalent. We then study the boundedness on $h^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of the commutator $[b,T]$ of an inhomogeneous singular integral operator with $b$ in $bmo(\mathbb{R}^n)$, the nonhomogeneous space of functions of bounded mean oscillation. We define local analogues of the atomic space $H^1_b(\mathbb{R}^n)$ introduced by Pérez in the case of the homoge…
In this lecture note, we study free boundary problems for the Navier-Stokes equations with and without surface tension. The local well-posedness, the global well-posedness, and asymptotics of solutions as time goes to infinity are studied in the Lp in time and Lq in space framework. The tool in proving the local well-posedness is the maximal Lp-Lq regularity for the Stokes equations with non-homogeneous free boundary conditions. The approach here of proving the maximal Lp-Lq regularity is based on the R bounded solution operators of the generalized resolvent problem for the Stokes equations wi…
We prove local boundedness, Harnack's inequality and local regularity for weak solutions of quasilinear degenerate elliptic equations in divergence form with Rough coefficients. Degeneracy is encoded by a non-negative, symmetric, measurable matrix valued function Q(x) and two suitable non-negative weight functions. We setup an axiomatic approach in terms of suitable geometric conditions and local Sobolev-Poincaré inequalities. Data integrability is close to L1 and is exploited in terms of a suitable Stummel-Kato class that in some cases is necessary for local regularity.

We show that the gradient of the $m$-power of a solution to a singular parabolic equation of porous medium-type (also known as fast diffusion equation), satisfies a reverse Hölder inequality in suitable intrinsic cylinders. Relying on an intrinsic Calderón-Zygmund covering argument, we are able to prove the local higher integrability of such a gradient for $m\in\left(\frac{(n-2)_+}{n+2},1\right)$. Our estimates are satisfied for a general class of growth assumptions on the non linearity. In this way, we extend the theory for $m\geq 1$ (see [GS16] in the list of references) to the singular case…
We consider nonlinear Kolmogorov-Fokker-Planck type equations of the form \begin{equation}\label{abeqn} (\partial_t+X\cdot\nabla_Y)u=\nabla_X\cdot(A(\nabla_X u,X,Y,t)). \end{equation} The function $A=A(ξ,X,Y,t):\R^m\times\R^m\times\R^m\times\R\to\R^m$ is assumed to be continuous with respect to $ξ$, and measurable with respect to $X,Y$ and $t$. $A=A(ξ,X,Y,t)$ is allowed to be nonlinear but with linear growth. We establish higher integrability and local boundedness of weak sub-solutions, weak Harnack and Harnack inequalities, and H{ö}lder continuity with quantitative estimates. In addition we e…
This work is concerned with the gradient flow of absolutely $p$-homogeneous convex functionals on a Hilbert space, which we show to exhibit finite ($p<2$) or infinite extinction time ($p \geq 2$). We give upper bounds for the finite extinction time and establish convergence rates of the flow. Moreover, we study next order asymptotics and prove that asymptotic profiles of the solution are eigenfunctions of the subdifferential operator of the functional. To this end, we compare with solutions of an ordinary differential equation which describes the evolution of eigenfunction under the flow. Our …
