In [2] Kenig, Ruiz and Sogge proved$${\parallel u\parallel }_{L^{\frac{2n}{n-2}}\left({ℝ}^n\right)}\lesssim {\parallel Lu\parallel }_{L^{\frac{2n}{n+2}}\left({ℝ}^n\right)}$$provided $n\ge 3$, $u\in C_0^{\infty }\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ and $L$ is a second order operator with constant coefficients such that the second order coefficients are real and nonsingular. As a consequence of [3] we state local versions of this inequality for operators with $C^2$ coefficients. In this paper we show how to apply these local versions to the absence of embedded eigenvalues for potentials in $L^{\frac{n+1}{2}}$ and variants thereof.

Building upon the techniques introduced in [15], for any $\theta <\frac{1}{10}$ we construct periodic weak solutions of the incompressible Euler equations which dissipate the total kinetic energy and are Hölder-continuous with exponent $\theta$. A famous conjecture of Onsager states the existence of such dissipative solutions with any Hölder exponent $\theta <\frac{1}{3}$. Our theorem is the first result in this direction.

Two new time-dependent versions of div-curl results in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^3$ are presented. We study a limit of the product $v_k{w}_k$, where the sequences $v_k$ and $w_k$ belong to ${Ł}_2\left(\Omega \right)$. In Theorem 2.1 we assume that $\nabla \times v_k$ is bounded in the $L_p$-norm and $\nabla ·w_k$ is controlled in the $L_r$-norm. In Theorem 2.2 we suppose that $\nabla \times w_k$ is bounded in the $L_p$-norm and $\nabla ·w_k$ is controlled in the $L_r$-norm. The time derivative of $w_k$ is bounded in both cases in the norm of $-1\left(\Omega \right)$. The convergence (in the sense of distributions) of $v_k{w}_k$ to the product $vw$ of weak limits...

We consider the Cauchy problem for the focusing Hartree equation $i{u}_t+\Delta u+{\left(\right|·|}^{-3}\ast \left|u\right|²)u=0$ in ℝ⁵ with initial data in H¹, and study the divergence property of infinite-variance and nonradial solutions. For the ground state solution of $-Q+\Delta Q+\left(\right|·{|}^{-3}\ast \left|Q\right|²)Q=0$ in ℝ⁵, we prove that if u₀ ∈ H¹ satisfies M(u₀)E(u₀) < M(Q)E(Q) and ||∇u₀||₂||u₀||₂ > ||∇Q||₂||Q||₂, then the corresponding solution u(t) either blows up in finite forward time, or exists globally for positive time and there exists a time sequence tₙ → ∞ such that ||∇u(tₙ)||₂ → ∞....

The central objective of this paper is to develop reduced basis methods for parameter dependent transport dominated problems that are rigorously proven to exhibit rate-optimal performance when compared with the Kolmogorov n-widths of the solution sets. The central ingredient is the construction of computationally feasible “tight” surrogates which in turn are based on deriving a suitable well-conditioned variational formulation for the parameter dependent problem. The theoretical results are illustrated...

Let u be a solution to a second order elliptic equation with singular magnetic fields, vanishing continuously on an open subset Γ of the boundary of a Lipschitz domain. An elementary proof of the doubling property for u² over balls centered at some points near Γ is presented. Moreover, we get the unique continuation at the boundary of Dini domains for elliptic operators.
