Reference for $\epsilon$-regularity

First, it is straightforward to adapt Haslhofer's proof to higher dimensions, using the Sobolev inequality: For any compactly supported $u$ such that $\|\nabla u\|_2 < \infty$, $$ \|u\|_{\frac{2n}{n-2 …

Well-posedness of PDE with $\partial_{tt}\Delta u$ - like term

Here's what I would try: Check that for each $t$ and $f \in S$, where $S$ is an appropriately chosen function space, there is a unique solution to the elliptic problem: $$ L\phi = f \text{ on }\Omega …

Elliptic regularity on manifolds: Is this true?

Use a partition of unity to reduce the statement to a local one for a function compactly supported on a coordinate chart. At that point, any elliptic regularity theorem on an open domain in Rn can be …

PDEs and algebraic varieties

What has been studied more extensively is the top order term, which is known as the principal symbol. Since it is a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$, it defines a real projective algebraic variety …

Reference request: inverse of differential operators

There are many possible answers to this question, depending on the type of the differential operator, the domain of the functions, and whether you want to impose any additional conditions such as spec …

Explicit solutions for linear system of PDEs with constant coefficients

ADDDED: Since equation (1) below is a first order linear ODE,it has an explicit solution (with an integral). It follows that the solution to the entire system of equations can be written explicitly as …

How to prove the reverse Hölder inequality for Laplace equations?

The inequality is scale invariant and holds for a ball of any radius. It follows by a standard argument that is the inductive step in what's known as Moser iteration. The constant $C$ below can change …

Do Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions vary continuously with the metric?

EDITED: Added clarification, as pointed out by @TerryTao. Let $g_1$, $g_2$ be Riemannian metrics and $\Delta_1$, $\Delta_2$ their respective Laplacians. Let $\lambda_1$ be an eigenvalue of $\Delta_1$ …

Local solvability and Cauchy-Kovalevskaya theorem for PDEs

The system you wrote down First, let's assume everything is smooth. \begin{align*} u_t &= v\\ v_{tt} &= u_x\\ \end{align*} is equivalent to the first order system \begin{align*} u_t &= v\\ v_t …

Existence for an overdetermined system of PDEs

COMMENT: The answer below is just the proof of the Frobenius theorem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius_theorem_(differential_topology) applied to this specific case. The arguments below are als …

Hyperbolic PDE in mathematics

Hyperbolic PDEs arise unexpectedly in some differential geometric questions involving prescribed data. What's weird in these cases is that there is no natural time coordinate in the PDEs. Here are som …

Fundamental solution of an elliptic PDE in divergence form with non-symmetric matrix

If you assume that the coefficients $a^{ij}$ are smooth functions and let $$b^{ij} = \frac{1}{2}(a^{ij} + a^{ji}),$$ then the PDE can be written as $$ b^{ij}\partial^2_{ij}u + \partial_ia^{ij}\partial …

Moduli space of linear partial differential equations

Hormander showed that there is a generic set of scalar linear PDE's that can be studied using general techniques, known as microlocal analysis. This can be linked to algebraic geometry as follows: Any …
