On the modified Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation on the cylinder: A trilinear Bourgain-space estimate and its application to local well-posedness

This paper establishes a trilinear Bourgain-space estimate for the derivative cubic term of the modified Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation on R×T\mathbb R \times \mathbb T with specific input and output exponents, providing a self-contained dyadic proof to recover local well-posedness in Hs(R×T)H^s(\mathbb R \times \mathbb T) for s>1s>1.

Global well-posedness in the critical Besov space of the skew mean curvature flow in Rd:d5\mathbb{R}^d: d\ge 5

This paper establishes the small-data global well-posedness of the skew mean curvature flow for codimension-two submanifolds in Rd+2\mathbb{R}^{d+2} (d5d\ge5) within the critical Besov space by reformulating the problem as a quasilinear Schrödinger equation and overcoming the lack of derivative margins through a novel combination of a div-curl lemma for low-high interactions and a quasilinear interaction Morawetz estimate for comparable and high-high frequency interactions.

LpL^p Estimates for Numerical Approximation of Convex Hamilton-Jacobi Equations

This paper establishes LpL^p error estimates for monotone numerical schemes approximating convex Hamilton-Jacobi equations on the dd-dimensional torus by deriving an L1L^1 bound of order one via the adjoint method and semiconcavity, which is then extended to all 1p<+1\le p<+\infty through interpolation with classical LL^\infty estimates.

Well-posedness of the two-dimensional unsteady Prandtl system in Sobolev space with degenerate critical points

This paper establishes the local-in-time well-posedness of the two-dimensional unsteady Prandtl equations in Sobolev spaces for initial data with degenerate critical points and general outflow, demonstrating that Oleinik's monotonicity condition is not necessary for well-posedness and that zero shear stress does not inevitably cause boundary layer separation.
