Maximal regularity and a singular limit problem for the Patlak–Keller–Segel system in the scaling critical space involving BMO

We consider a singular limit problem of the Cauchy problem for the Patlak–Keller–Segel equation in a scaling critical function space. It is shown that a solution to the Patlak–Keller–Segel system in a scaling critical function space involving the class of bounded mean oscillations converges to a solution to the drift-diffusion system of parabolic-elliptic type (simplified Keller–Segel model) strongly as the relaxation time parameter $$\tau \rightarrow \infty $$ τ → ∞ . For the proof, we show generalized maximal regularity for the heat equation in the homogeneous Besov spaces and the class of bounded mean oscillations and we utilize them systematically as well as the continuous embeddings between the interpolation spaces $$\dot{B}^s_{q,\sigma }({\mathbb {R}}^n)$$ B ˙ q , σ s ( R n ) and $$\dot{F}^s_{q,\sigma }({\mathbb {R}}^n)$$ F ˙ q , σ s ( R n ) for the proof of the singular limit. In particular, end-point maximal regularity in BMO and space time modified class introduced by Koch–Tataru is utilized in our proof.

Maximal $$L^q$$-Regularity for Parabolic Hamilton–Jacobi Equations and Applications to Mean Field Games

In this paper we investigate maximal $$L^q$$ L q -regularity for time-dependent viscous Hamilton–Jacobi equations with unbounded right-hand side and superlinear growth in the gradient. Our approach is based on the interplay between new integral and Hölder estimates, interpolation inequalities, and parabolic regularity for linear equations. These estimates are obtained via a duality method à la Evans. This sheds new light on the parabolic counterpart of a conjecture by P.-L. Lions on maximal regularity for Hamilton–Jacobi equations, recently addressed in the stationary framework by the authors. Finally, applications to the existence problem of classical solutions to Mean Field Games systems with unbounded local couplings are provided.

Wong–Zakai Approximation for Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert Equation Driven by Geometric Rough Paths

We adapt Lyon’s rough path theory to study Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equations (LLGEs) driven by geometric rough paths in one dimension, with non-zero exchange energy only. We convert the LLGEs to a fully nonlinear time-dependent partial differential equation without rough paths term by a suitable transformation. Our point of interest is the regular approximation of the geometric rough path. We investigate the limit equation, the form of the correction term, and its convergence rate in controlled rough path spaces. The key ingredients for constructing the solution and its corresponding convergence results are the Doss–Sussmann transformation, maximal regularity property, and the geometric rough path theory.

A study on stochastic maximal regularity for rough time-dependent problems

We unify and extend the semigroup and the PDE approaches to stochastic maximal regularity of time-dependent semilinear parabolic problems with noise given by a cylindrical Brownian motion. We treat random coefficients that are only progressively measurable in the time variable. For 2m-th order systems with VMO regularity in space, we obtain Lp(Lq) estimates for all p > 2 and q ≥ 2, leading to optimal space-time regularity results. For second order systems with continuous coefficients in space, we also include a first order linear term, under a stochastic parabolicity condition, and obtain Lp(Lp) estimates together with optimal space-time regularity. For linear second order equations in divergence form with random coefficients that are merely measurable in both space and time, we obtain estimates in the tent spaces Tp,2 of Coifman-Meyer-Stein. This is done in the deterministic case under no extra assumption, and in the stochastic case under the assumption that the coefficients are divergence free.

Maximal Regularity for Non-autonomous Evolutionary Equations

We discuss the issue of maximal regularity for evolutionary equations with non-autonomous coefficients. Here evolutionary equations are abstract partial-differential algebraic equations considered in Hilbert spaces. The catch is to consider time-dependent partial differential equations in an exponentially weighted Hilbert space. In passing, one establishes the time derivative as a continuously invertible, normal operator admitting a functional calculus with the Fourier–Laplace transformation providing the spectral representation. Here, the main result is then a regularity result for well-posed evolutionary equations solely based on an assumed parabolic-type structure of the equation and estimates of the commutator of the coefficients with the square root of the time derivative. We thus simultaneously generalise available results in the literature for non-smooth domains. Examples for equations in divergence form, integro-differential equations, perturbations with non-autonomous and rough coefficients as well as non-autonomous equations of eddy current type are considered.

On the Problem of Maximal $$L^q$$-regularity for Viscous Hamilton–Jacobi Equations

In this paper we prove a conjecture by P.-L. Lions on maximal regularity of $$L^q$$ L q -type for periodic solutions to $$-\Delta u + |Du|^\gamma = f$$ - Δ u + | D u | γ = f in $$\mathbb {R}^d$$ R d , under the (sharp) assumption that $$q > d \frac{\gamma -1}{\gamma }$$ q > d γ - 1 γ .
