Abstract

For any $0\leγ<1/3$ we construct weak solutions $(v,B,p)$ of the ideal MHD equations with $v,B\in C^γ(\mathbb T^3\times\mathbb R)$, which conserve neither the total energy nor the cross-helicity and have nontrivial magnetic helicity. We also establish anisotropic Hölder bounds with distinct velocity and magnetic exponents and stronger regularity along every magnetic field line. The admissible exponents connect the Goldreich--Sridhar \cite{GoldreichSridhar1995} spatial and parallel pair $1/3, 1/2$ with the $1/4$ spatial scaling of the Iroshnikov--Kraichnan weak-turbulence picture \cite{Iroshnikov1963,Kraichnan1965}. In the spirit of Arnold's formulation of ideal hydrodynamics, a solution is regarded as a path of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms; the proof is then based on the interplay between classical convex integration techniques and geometric constructions at the level of the Lie algebra of this Lie group. Our work substantially extends the recent result of Enciso, Peñafiel-Tomás and Peralta-Salas \cite{EnPePe} and can be used to reprove \cite{GiRa} of Giri and Radu without a Newton iteration.

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.
