Abstract

We construct the Very Singular Solution (VSS) for the Anisotropic Fast Diffusion Equation (AFDE) in the suitable good exponent range of fast diffusion. VSS is a solution that, starting from an infinite mass located at one point as initial datum, evolves according to the corresponding equation as an admissible solution away from the singularity. It is expected to represent important properties of the fundamental solutions when the initial mass is very big. We work in the whole space. In this setting we show that the diffusion process distributes mass from the the initial infinite singularity along the different space directions: up to constant factors, there is a simple partition formula for the anisotropic mass expansion, given approximately as the minimum of separate 1-D VSS solutions. This striking fact is a consequence of the improved scaling properties of the special solution, and it has strong consequences. If we consider the family of Fundamental Solutions for different masses, we prove that they share the same universal tail behaviour as the VSS. Actually, their tail is asymptotically convergent to the unique VSS tail, so there is a VSS partition formula for their profile at spatial infinity. With the help of this analysis we study the behaviour of the class of nonnegative finite-mass solutions of the Anisotropic FDE, and prove the Global Harnack Principle (GHP) and the Asymptotic Convergence in Relative Error (ACRE) under a natural assumption on the decay of the initial tail.

Blow-Up Dynamics for the $L^2$ critical case of the $2$D Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation

We study blow-up dynamics for the $L^2$-critical cubic Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation in two dimensions, \[ \partial_tu+\partial_{x_1}(Δu+u^3)=0 \qquad\text{on }\mathbb R^2. \] For a class of localized $H^1$ perturbations of the ground state $Q$, we establish a trichotomy near the soliton manifold: exit from a small $L^2$-tube, global asymptotic stability, or finite-time blow-up. In the stable blow-up regime, the solution concentrates a single bubble and \[ λ(t)\sim \ell_0(T-t)^{1/(3-c)}, \] where $\ell_0>0$ depends on the initial datum and $c\in(1,2)$ is an explicit constant determined by the transverse tail of the first-order approximate profile. Consequently, \[ \|\nabla u(t)\|_{L^2} \sim \frac{\|\nabla Q\|_{L^2}} {\ell_0(T-t)^{1/(3-c)}}. \] After subtraction of the concentrating soliton, the radiation converges strongly in $L^p(\mathbb R^2)$ for every $2\leq p<\infty$ to a common nonzero profile $u^*$, while \[ u^*\notin H^s(\mathbb R^2) \qquad\text{for every }s\geq\frac c2. \] The stable blow-up branch is open in the relative $H^1$ topology of the localized class. Finally, every non-soliton datum in this class with non-positive energy blows up in finite time. Interval-arithmetic computer-assisted proofs certify the numerical inputs to the virial coercivity argument. They also yield a rigorous enclosure of $c$, justifying the polynomial moment of order $21$ imposed on the initial data.

Propagation of wave packets close to conical intersections

In this paper, we study the propagation of wave packets close to conical intersections with respect to a system of two Schr{ö}dinger equations presenting a codimension 2 crossing. We focus on the dynamics that occur when the wave packets pass through an area close to the crossing, and our main results provide an explicit formula for the outgoing wave packet in terms of the incoming one, with a complete description of its phase and of the classical trajectories it follows, including a drift.

A Volterra Calculus for Lie Groupoids

A pseudodifferential Volterra calculus for inverting parabolic differential equations on Lie groupoids is introduced. This enables the study of fundamental solutions of various cases of heat flows on singular manifolds with corners with non-resonant boundary indicial symbols, such as the $b$-manifolds, as well as other geometric bisection covariant heat flows. We also establish the short time asymptotic expansion for the heat kernel of a positive, elliptic differential operator on a Lie groupoid that acts on suitable Sobolev Hilbert modules and is positive definite with respect to the appropriate $L^2$ inner product.
