The mathematical theory of low Mach number flows

Steven Schochet (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

The mathematical theory of the passage from compressible to incompressible fluid flow is reviewed.

The maximum regularity property of the steady Stokes problem associated with a flow through a profile cascade in L r -framework

Tomáš Neustupa (2023)

Applications of Mathematics

We deal with the steady Stokes problem, associated with a flow of a viscous incompressible fluid through a spatially periodic profile cascade. Using the reduction to domain Ω , which represents one spatial period, the problem is formulated by means of boundary conditions of three types: the conditions of periodicity on curves Γ - and Γ + (lower and upper parts of Ω ), the Dirichlet boundary conditions on Γ in (the inflow) and Γ 0 (boundary of the profile) and an artificial “do nothing”-type boundary condition...

The mean-field limit for the dynamics of large particle systems

François Golse (2003)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

This short course explains how the usual mean-field evolution PDEs in Statistical Physics - such as the Vlasov-Poisson, Schrödinger-Poisson or time-dependent Hartree-Fock equations - are rigorously derived from first principles, i.e. from the fundamental microscopic models that govern the evolution of large, interacting particle systems.

The minimum entropy principle for compressible fluid flows in a nozzle with discontinuous cross-section

Dietmar Kröner, Philippe G. LeFloch, Mai-Duc Thanh (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider the Euler equations for compressible fluids in a nozzle whose cross-section is variable and may contain discontinuities. We view these equations as a hyperbolic system in nonconservative form and investigate weak solutions in the sense of Dal Maso, LeFloch and Murat [J. Math. Pures Appl.74 (1995) 483–548]. Observing that the entropy equality has a fully conservative form, we derive a minimum entropy principle satisfied by entropy solutions. We then establish the stability of a class...

The mixed regularity of electronic wave functions multiplied by explicit correlation factors

Harry Yserentant (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

The electronic Schrödinger equation describes the motion of N electrons under Coulomb interaction forces in a field of clamped nuclei. The solutions of this equation, the electronic wave functions, depend on 3N variables, three spatial dimensions for each electron. Approximating them is thus inordinately challenging. As is shown in the author's monograph [Yserentant, Lecture Notes in Mathematics 2000, Springer (2010)], the regularity of the solutions, which increases with the number of electrons,...

The motion of a fluid in an open channel

Simina Bodea (2006)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

We consider a free boundary value problem for a viscous, incompressible fluid contained in an uncovered three-dimensional rectangular channel, with gravity and surface tension, governed by the Navier-Stokes equations. We obtain existence results for the linear and nonlinear time-dependent problem. We analyse the qualitative behavior of the flow using tools of bifurcation theory. The main result is a Hopf bifurcation theorem with k -symmetry.
