Reference request: Expository paper on the use of functional analysis in differential and integral equations
Some textbooks on functional analysis do not hint that a major raison d'être of the subject is its use in the study of differential and integral equations. The reader could go all the way through ...

Periodicity and Burger's equation
Consider the 1-dimensional Burger's equation on a finite interval $I=(0,1)$,
$$u_t+uu_x=u_{xx}$$
with initial condition
$$u(x,0)=f(x)$$
and boundary conditions
$$u(0,t)=A(t) \qquad u(1,t)=B(t).$$

Reference request: Original source of Yosida approximation
Numerous papers/books(citation needed) refer to the operator $$A_\lambda := \lambda AR_\lambda (A) = \lambda^2 R_\lambda(A) - \lambda I$$ where $R_\lambda(A)=(I+\lambda A)^{-1}$ is the resolvent, as ...

Parabolic regularization for the Navier-Stokes equations
I'm looking for some references about a result on the Navier-Stokes equations which seems to be folklore but for which I didn't manage to find a proof. The setting is the following :
Let $Q=\mathbb{R}^...

Regular Lagrangian flows on a domain of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with a boundary
I'm looking for some references about the theory of regular Lagrangian flows on a smooth domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ (say a smooth bounded open set of $\mathbb{R}^d$ or a half space).
Here, ...

Criteria for Schrödinger operator on real line to have simple spectrum
Consider a Schrödinger operator $H:=-\Delta+V$ on $\mathbb R$, where $V$ is such that $H$ has a purely discrete spectrum
$-\infty<\lambda_1\leq\lambda_2\leq\cdots$ converging to $+\infty$. Do there ...

Differential equations: trying to connect a nonlinear equation to a linear one
The following is motivated by taking a product space $\Omega$ and splitting it into two parts via projections, whose subspaces, $T$ and $X$, are home to functions which satisfy a nonlinear PDE and a ...

Di Perna-Lions theory for transport equations with an additional integral operator
I'm looking for a reference about some possible generalization of the well-known Di Perna-Lions theory for transport equations (say, on $[0,T] \times \mathbb{R}^d$) of the form
\begin{align}
