Abstract Consider two half-spaces$$H_1^+$$ and$$H_2^+$$ in$${\mathbb {R}}^{d+1}$$ whose bounding hyperplanes$$H_1$$ and$$H_2$$ are orthogonal and pass through the origin. The intersection$${\mathbb {S}}_{2,+}^d:={\mathbb {S}}^d\cap H_1^+\cap H_2^+$$ is a spherical convex subset of thed-dimensional unit sphere$${\mathbb {S}}^d$$ , which contains a great subsphere of dimension$$d-2$$ and is called a spherical wedge. Choosenindependent random points uniformly at random on$${\mathbb {S}}_{2,+}^d$$ and consider the expected facet number of the spherical convex hull of these points. It is shown that, up to terms of lower order, this expectation grows like a constant multiple of$$\log n$$ . A similar behaviour is obtained for the expected facet number of a homogeneous Poisson point process on$${\mathbb {S}}_{2,+}^d$$ . The result is compared to the corresponding behaviour of classical Euclidean random polytopes and of spherical random polytopes on a half-sphere.

Counterexamples to maximal regularity for operators in divergence form
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$$L^2(\mathbb {R}^d)$$ .

Abstract We consider thed-dimensional MagnetoHydroDynamics (MHD) system defined on a sufficiently smooth bounded domain,$$d = 2,3$$ with homogeneous boundary conditions, and subject to external sources assumed to cause instability. The initial conditions for both fluid and magnetic equations are taken of low regularity. We then seek to uniformly stabilize such MHD system in the vicinity of an unstable equilibrium pair, in the critical setting of correspondingly low regularity spaces, by means of explicitly constructed, static, feedback controls, which are localized on an arbitrarily small interior subdomain. In additional, they will be minimal in number. The resulting space of well-posedness and stabilization is a suitable product space$$\displaystyle \widetilde{\textbf{B}}^{2- ^{2}\!/_{p}}_{q,p}(\Omega )\times \widetilde{\textbf{B}}^{2- ^{2}\!/_{p}}_{q,p}(\Omega ), \, 1< p < \frac{2q}{2q-1}, \, q > d,$$ of tight Besov spaces for the fluid velocity component and the magnetic field component (each “close” to$$\textbf{L}^3(\Omega )$$ for$$d = 3$$ ). Showing maximal$$L^p$$ -regularity up to$$T = \infty $$ for the feedback stabilized linear system is critical for the analysis of well-posedness and stabilization of the feedback nonlinear problem.more » « less

Abstract Given a suitable solutionV(t, x) to the Korteweg–de Vries equation on the real line, we prove global well-posedness for initial data$$u(0,x) \in V(0,x) + H^{-1}(\mathbb {R})$$ . Our conditions onVdo include regularity but do not impose any assumptions on spatial asymptotics. We show that periodic profiles$$V(0,x)\in H^5(\mathbb {R}/\mathbb {Z})$$ satisfy our hypotheses. In particular, we can treat localized perturbations of the much-studied periodic traveling wave solutions (cnoidal waves) of KdV. In the companion paper Laurens (Nonlinearity. 35(1):343–387, 2022.https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6544/ac37f5) we show that smooth step-like initial data also satisfy our hypotheses. We employ the method of commuting flows introduced in Killip and Vişan (Ann. Math. (2) 190(1):249–305, 2019.https://doi.org/10.4007/annals.2019.190.1.4) where$$V\equiv 0$$ . In that setting, it is known that$$H^{-1}(\mathbb {R})$$ is sharp in the class of$$H^s(\mathbb {R})$$ spaces.more » « less

Abstract In this paper we prove a higher dimensional analogue of Carleson’s$$\varepsilon ^{2}$$ conjecture. Given two arbitrary disjoint Borel sets$$\Omega ^{+},\Omega ^{-}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$$ , and$$x\in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$$ ,$$r>0$$ , we denote$$ \varepsilon _{n}(x,r) := \frac{1}{r^{n}}\, \inf _{H^{+}} \mathcal{H}^{n} \left ( ((\partial B(x,r)\cap H^{+}) \setminus \Omega ^{+}) \cup (( \partial B(x,r)\cap H^{-}) \setminus \Omega ^{-})\right ), $$ where the infimum is taken over all open affine half-spaces$$H^{+}$$ such that$$x \in \partial H^{+}$$ and we define$$H^{-}= \mathbb{R}^{n+1} \setminus \overline{H^{+}}$$ . Our first main result asserts that the set of points$$x\in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$$ where$$ \int _{0}^{1} \varepsilon _{n}(x,r)^{2} \, \frac{dr}{r}< \infty $$ is$$n$$ -rectifiable. For our second main result we assume that$$\Omega ^{+}$$ ,$$\Omega ^{-}$$ are open and that$$\Omega ^{+}\cup \Omega ^{-}$$ satisfies the capacity density condition. For each$$x \in \partial \Omega ^{+} \cup \partial \Omega ^{-}$$ and$$r>0$$ , we denote by$$\alpha ^{\pm }(x,r)$$ the characteristic constant of the (spherical) open sets$$\Omega ^{\pm }\cap \partial B(x,r)$$ . We show that, up to a set of$$\mathcal{H}^{n}$$ measure zero,$$x$$ is a tangent point for both$$\partial \Omega ^{+}$$ and$$\partial \Omega ^{-}$$ if and only if$$ \int _{0}^{1} \min (1,\alpha ^{+}(x,r) + \alpha ^{-}(x,r) -2) \frac{dr}{r} < \infty . $$ The first result is new even in the plane and the second one improves and extends to higher dimensions the$$\varepsilon ^{2}$$ conjecture of Carleson.more » « less
