Abstract In this paper, we present counterexamples to maximal$$L^p$$ -regularity for a parabolic PDE. The example is a second-order operator in divergence form with space and time-dependent coefficients. It is well-known from Lions’ theory that such operators admit maximal$$L^2$$ -regularity on$$H^{-1}$$ under a coercivity condition on the coefficients, and without any regularity conditions in time and space. We show that in general one cannot expect maximal$$L^p$$ -regularity on$$H^{-1}(\mathbb {R}^d)$$ or$$L^2$$ -regularity on$$L^2(\mathbb {R}^d)$$ .

Variable-coefficient parabolic theory as a high-dimensional limit of elliptic theory
Abstract This paper continues the study initiated in Davey (Arch Ration Mech Anal 228:159–196, 2018), where a high-dimensional limiting technique was developed and used to prove certain parabolic theorems from their elliptic counterparts. In this article, we extend these ideas to the variable-coefficient setting. This generalized technique is demonstrated through new proofs of three important theorems for variable-coefficient heat operators, one of which establishes a result that is, to the best of our knowledge, also new. Specifically, we give new proofs of$$L^2 \rightarrow L^2$$ Carleman estimates and the monotonicity of Almgren-type frequency functions, and we prove a new monotonicity of Alt–Caffarelli–Friedman-type functions. The proofs in this article rely only on their related elliptic theorems and a limiting argument. That is, each parabolic theorem is proved by taking a high-dimensional limit of a related elliptic result.

Abstract We study the singular set in the thin obstacle problem for degenerate parabolic equations with weight$$|y|^a$$ for$$a \in (-1,1)$$ . Such problem arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional heat operator$$(\partial _t - \Delta _x)^s$$ for$$s \in (0,1)$$ . Our main result establishes the complete structure and regularity of the singular set of the free boundary. To achieve it, we prove Almgren-Poon, Weiss, and Monneau type monotonicity formulas which generalize those for the case of the heat equation ($$a=0$$ ).more » « less

Abstract This article revisits the problem of global well-posedness for the generalized parabolic Anderson model on$$\mathbb {R}^+\times \mathbb {T}^2$$ within the framework of paracontrolled calculus (Gubinelli et al. in Forum Math, 2015). The model is given by the equation:$$\begin{aligned} (\partial _t-\Delta ) u=F(u)\eta \end{aligned}$$ where$$\eta \in C^{-1-\kappa }$$ with$$1/6>\kappa >0$$ , and$$F\in C_b^2(\mathbb {R})$$ . Assume that$$\eta \in C^{-1-\kappa }$$ and can be lifted to enhanced noise, we derive new a priori bounds. The key idea follows from the recent work by Chandra et al. (A priori bounds for 2-d generalised Parabolic Anderson Model,,2024), to represent the leading error term as a transport type term, and our techniques encompass the paracontrolled calculus, the maximum principle, and the localization approach (i.e. high-low frequency argument).more » « less

Abstract We extend the Calderón–Zygmund theory for nonlocal equations tostrongly coupled system of linear nonlocal equations {\mathcal{L}^{s}_{A}u=f}, where the operator {\mathcal{L}^{s}_{A}}is formally given by \mathcal{L}^{s}_{A}u=\int_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}\frac{A(x,y)}{|x-y|^{n+2s}}\frac{(x-%y)\otimes(x-y)}{|x-y|^{2}}(u(x)-u(y))\,dy.

<1}and {A:\mathbb{R}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}}taken to be symmetric and serving asa variable coefficient for the operator, the system under consideration is the fractional version of the classical Navier–Lamé linearized elasticity system. The study of the coupled system of nonlocal equations is motivated by its appearance in nonlocal mechanics, primarily in peridynamics. Our regularity result states that if {A(\,\cdot\,,y)}is uniformly Holder continuous and {\inf_{x\in\mathbb{R}^{n}}A(x,x)>0}, then for {f\in L^{p}_{\rm loc}}, for {p\geq 2}, the solution vector {u\in H^{2s-\delta,p}_{\rm loc}}for some {\delta\in(0,s)}. -
Abstract We prove that the Hilbert scheme ofkpoints on$${\mathbb {C}}^2$$ ($$\hbox {Hilb}^k[{\mathbb {C}}^2]$$ ) is self-dual under three-dimensional mirror symmetry using methods of geometry and integrability. Namely, we demonstrate that the corresponding quantum equivariant K-theory is invariant upon interchanging its Kähler and equivariant parameters as well as inverting the weight of the$${\mathbb {C}}^\times _\hbar $$ -action. First, we find a two-parameter family$$X_{k,l}$$ of self-mirror quiver varieties of type A and study their quantum K-theory algebras. The desired quantum K-theory of$$\hbox {Hilb}^k[{\mathbb {C}}^2]$$ is obtained via direct limit$$l\longrightarrow \infty $$ and by imposing certain periodic boundary conditions on the quiver data. Throughout the proof, we employ the quantum/classical (q-Langlands) correspondence between XXZ Bethe Ansatz equations and spaces of twisted$$\hbar $$ -opers. In the end, we propose the 3d mirror dual for the moduli spaces of torsion-free rank-Nsheaves on$${\mathbb {P}}^2$$ with the help of a different (three-parametric) family of type A quiver varieties with known mirror dual.more » « less
