Upper bound Hölder norm of the solution to the non-linear PDE $\partial_t u (t, x) = \Delta_x \{ |\sigma (u (t, x))|^2 u(t, x) \}$

We fix $T>0$ and let $\mathbb T := [0, T]$. Let $\sigma : \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ belong to the Hölder space $C^{1, \alpha}_b (\mathbb R)$ for some $\alpha \in (0, 1)$. Let $u : \mathbb T \times \...

optimal regularity for the Neumann heat equation on Lipschitz domains

$\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb R}$Let $\Omega\subset\R^d$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain, possibly non-convex (but not too nasty either, whatever that means). I am looking for well-posedness and optimal ...

Regularity result for the boundary value problem for the heat equation

Let $\Omega$ be an open bounded subset of $\mathbb R^N$. Let $u_0 \in L^\infty(\Omega)$ and $f \in L^\infty((0,T)\times\Omega).$ Consider the following boundary value problem for the heat equation: ...

Techniques to estimate PDE which are elliptic in some directions and degenerate in others

I am interested in a family of PDE which have defeated my (admittedly rather naive) attempts to prove any regularity or stability estimates. These are systems of PDE which are elliptic in some ...

$C^{1,2}$-regularity of the kinetic Fokker-Planck equation/Langevin equation

Consider a Fokker-Planck equation: $$ \partial_t m(t,x,v) + v \cdot \nabla_x m(t,x,v) + \nabla_v\cdot \big(b(t,x,v) m(t,x,v) \big) - \frac{1}{2} \Delta_v m(t,x,v) ~=~ 0, $$ with initial condition ...

Upper bound Hölder norm of the solution to the linear PDE $\partial_t u (t, x) = \Delta_x \{ |\sigma (x)|^2 u(t, x) \}$

Previously, I asked the same question for a non-linear PDE, but I have got no answer. Below, I consider the linear counterpart it. We fix $T>0$ and let $\mathbb T := [0, T]$. Let $\sigma : \mathbb ...

Visualization of an oscillation lemma

How can one visualize Theorem 4.2 on page 31 of this paper by Seregin, Silvestre, Šverák and Zlatoš? On the other hand, I have a clear visualization of a related result about how oscillation decay ...

Regularity up to the boundary of solutions of the heat equation

Given the heat problem: $$\begin{cases} \frac{d}{dt}u(x,t)=\Delta u(x,t) & \forall (x,t)\in \Omega\times(0,T) \\ u(x,0)=u_0(x) & \forall x\in\Omega \\ u(x,t)=0 & \forall x\in\partial\...

Parabolic theory for singular coefficients on bounded domains (Reference Request)

In Evans, the theory for linear PDE of parabolic type with bounded coefficients is developed. There are nice results such as long-existence of weak solutions and the parabolic regularity theorems. Is ...

$L_p$ estimate in mixed boundary problem for elliptic equation

Let $Q$ be convex polygon, $\Gamma$ be a portion of boundary $\partial Q$ and $H^1_\Gamma(Q)=\lbrace u\in H^1(Q): u|_\Gamma=0\rbrace$. For $f\in (L_2(Q))^2$ consider the problem $$ \int_Q A(x)\nabla u ...

While doing Lp estimates, is the constant C monotonically increasing with respect to the parameters it depends on?

For example, consider the third boundary value problem: \begin{align} &\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}-\sum_{i,j=1}^n a_{ij}(x,t) \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x_i \partial x_j} + \sum_{i=1}^n ...

$L^\infty(\Omega)$-regularity for strongly damped wave equation

I am interested in the following IBVP for the strongly damped wave equation: \begin{equation} u_{tt}-c^2\Delta u-b\Delta u_t+eu_t=f(x,t) \quad \text{in} \ \Omega \times (0,T), \\ u=0 \quad \text{on} \ ...

Properties of "potential vector field" in Helmholtz decomposition

It is a well known fact that given a vector field $F$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$, this can be decomposed as $$ F= \nabla V+ \nabla \times R$$ with $V$ a potential and $R$ another vector field. These components ...

Regularity for a div-curl system

Let $Q = [0,1]^3$ be the unit cube in $ \mathbb{R}^3$, and let $U \subset Q$ be a simply-connected subdomain with smooth boundary. Suppose $g \: \colon Q \to \mathbb{R}^3$ is a non-negative smooth ...
