Abstract

Given a solution of a nonlinear wave equation on the flat space-time (with a real analytic nonlinearity), we relate its Cauchy data at two different times by nonlinear representation formulas in terms of asymptotic series. We first show how to construct formally these series by mean of generating functions based on an algebraic framework inspired by the construction of Fock spaces in quantum field theory. Then we build an analytic setting in which all these constructions really make sense and give rise to convergent series.

De Giorgi-Nash-Moser theory for kinetic equations with nonlocal diffusions

We extend the De Giorgi--Nash--Moser theory to nonlocal hypoelliptic equations arising in kinetic theory as linearized models for the non-cutoff Boltzmann equation. Assuming that the nonlocal tail in velocity of weak solutions belongs locally to $L^p_{t,x}$ for some $p>N_{d}/(2s)$, where $N_{d}$ is the drift homogeneous dimension and $2s\in(0,2)$ is the order of diffusion, we prove a local $L^2$-$L^\infty$ estimate, from which we also deduce a nonlocal strong Harnack inequality. The tail summability threshold for the local estimate is optimal: for every $1\leq p \leq N_{d}/(2s)$, we construct a family of nonnegative, time-dependent solutions that rules out this estimate even for the pure fractional Kolmogorov equation. The local boundedness estimate also allows for possibly unbounded source terms.

Multiple positive solutions to a perturbed Gelfand problem involving mixed local-nonlocal operators and singular nonlinearity

We investigate a perturbed Gelfand problem involving a mixed local-nonlocal $p$-Laplacian operator with singular nonlinearity: \begin{equation*} \begin{aligned} -Δ_p u + (-Δ_p)^s u = λ\frac{f(u)}{u^β}\ \text{in} \ Ω\newline u >0\ \text{in} \ Ω,\ u =0\ \text{in} \ \mathbb{R}^N \setminus Ω\end{aligned} \end{equation*} where $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is a smooth bounded domain, $λ> 0 $ is a parameter, $0\leq β<1$ and $f$ is a non-decreasing $C^1$-function with $f(0)>0$. Using the method of sub- and supersolutions, we present a novel multiplicity result and, in specific cases, we also prove a three-solution theorem using Amann's fixed point theorem. Our construction of sub-supersolutions avoids the conventional reliance on ODE techniques and Green's function estimates, thereby making it more adaptable to the nonlinear and nonlocal framework. Additionally, we establish a Hopf-type Strong Comparison Principle for the linear operator with singular nonlinearity, marking the first result of its kind for mixed local-nonlocal operators. This result is crucial in deriving a third solution and holds broader mathematical significance.

The Obstacle Problem Arising from the American Chooser Option

We study the finite-horizon obstacle problem associated with the American chooser option. Its obstacle is the maximum of two independently determined American call and put values and has a spatial kink where these values cross. Using truncation, penalization, and comparison, we construct a local strong Sobolev solution and prove uniqueness within an exponential-growth class. We show that contact occurs only on the smooth exercise-payoff branches and that both contact regions have nonempty sections at every time. We then establish strict monotonicity, terminal limits, and local Lipschitz continuity of the two free boundaries. Localized one-phase equations, quantitative nondegeneracy, and parabolic boundary Harnack estimates yield $C^\infty$ regularity on the open time interval.
