Incompressible limit for a two-species tumour model with coupling through Brinkman's law in one dimension

Abstract

We present a two-species model with applications in tumour modelling. The main novelty is the coupling of both species through the so-called Brinkman law which is typically used in the context of visco-elastic media, where the velocity field is linked to the total population pressure via an elliptic equation. The same model for only one species has been studied by Perthame and Vauchelet in the past. The first part of this paper is dedicated to establishing existence of solutions to the problem, while the second part deals with the incompressible limit as the stiffness of the pressure law tends to infinity. Here we present a novel approach in one spatial dimension that differs from the kinetic reformulation used in the aforementioned study and, instead, relies on uniform BV-estimates.

Renormalized Lambert-W Cascade and Finite-Time Amplification and Blowup for reconstructed b Dynamics on T^3 for the 3D Navier Stokes Equations

This article extracts and consolidates the renormalized Lambert-$W$ branch-point cascade, its distinguished phase reduction, the exact characteristic invariant and finite-time amplification mechanism, and the extended reconstructed $b_i$ equation on $\mathbb T^3$. Repeated historical derivations are removed while the principal proofs and terminal reconstruction estimates are retained. The presentation separates exact finite-depth statements from coupled-depth asymptotics and records the hypotheses required for the extended PDE reconstruction. This paper further supports a recent paper \cite {moschandreou2026exploration} published by the corresponding author which claims that the Navier Stokes equations lose smoothness in finite time from initial smooth data.

Unconditional uniqueness for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation by normal form approach

We prove uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in $L^\infty_tH^{1/2}_x$. Our proof is based on the method of normal form reduction (NFR), which has been employed to obtain the uniqueness in $C_tH^s_x$, $s>1/2$. To overcome logarithmic divergences at the $H^{1/2}$ regularity, we exploit the $B^{0+}_{\infty,1}$ control of solutions provided by a refined Strichartz estimate. Our NFR argument consists of two stages: we first use NFR finitely many times to derive an intermediate equation in which the main cubic nonlinearity is restricted to a certain type of frequency interaction; we then apply the infinite NFR scheme to the intermediate equation. Moreover, we modify the usual NFR argument relying on continuity in time of solutions so that the uniqueness in the class $L^\infty_tH^{1/2}_x$ can be obtained directly.

Equivalence between solvability of the Dirichlet and Regularity problem under an $L^1$ Carleson condition on $\partial_t A$

We study an elliptic operator $L:=-\mathrm{div}(A\nabla \cdot)$ on the upper half space. It is known that solvability of the Regularity problem in $\dot{W}^{1,p}$ implies solvability of the adjoint Dirichlet problem in $L^{p'}$. Previously, Shen (2007) established a partial reverse result. In our work, we show that if we assume a mixed \(L^1-L^\infty\) condition on only \(|\partial_t A|\), the full reverse direction holds. As a result, we obtain equivalence between solvability of the Dirichlet problem $(D)^*_{p'}$ and the Regularity problem $(R)_p$ under this condition. As a further consequence, we can extend the class of operators for which the $L^p$ Regularity problem is solvable by operators satisfying the mixed $L^1-L^\infty$ condition. Additionally in the case of the upper half plane, this class includes operators satisfying this this mixed \(L^1-L^\infty\) condition.
