Abstract

Trace theorems are an indispensable tool for the analysis of kinetic equations. They have been established in wide generality by Cessenat and co-workers for radiative transfer and related applications. A variety of trace estimates have been established for the kinetic Fokker-Planck and Kolmogorov equation, typically requiring smoothness of the underlying domain; see the recent survey by Niebel \&Valentini. In this work, we prove a new trace estimate for kinetic Sobolev spaces over the sphere for $\rho$-convex domains which, in general, may have a non-smooth boundary. Similar to the work of Cessenat, we use characteristics to obtain trace estimates in weighted trace spaces with explicit constants. For completeness, we also present a density result for the corresponding function spaces on Lipschitz domains.

Uniqueness for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation in critical Sobolev spaces

We study the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff for very soft potentials satisfying the inverse power law relation $\gamma+4s=1$. Our main results establish the existence, uniqueness, stability and regularization estimates of solutions in the critical Sobolev space $ H^{-(\gamma + 2s + \fra...

Stability of Kantorovich potentials via heat kernel regularization

This survey presents heat kernel regularization as a method for quantitative stability of Kantorovich potentials for the quadratic transport cost. We give a complete new heat kernel proof on Heisenberg groups equipped with the Carnot--Carath\'eodory distance. For source densities bounded above and away from zero on bou...

Stability of the Riesz-type inequalities under gluing

We establish stability principles under compact gluing for the reverse square-root inequality and the Riesz transform. Below a common Sobolev dimension, the reverse estimate passes from finitely many model manifolds to their connected sum. A boundary-compatible Poisson parametrix also proves the Neumann reverse inequal...

Weak-type characterizations of Sobolev and bounded variation spaces on metric measure spaces

Given a complete doubling metric measure space $(X,\rho,\mu)$ supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we prove weak-type characterizations of the Sobolev space $\dot{W}^{1,p}(\mu)$ and the space of functions of bounded variation, achieving a full analogy in general Poincar\'e spaces with the Euclidean results of Brezis et...

Well-posedness for a class of $n\times n$ hyperbolic systems and shock stability for the viscous approximation

We establish the global well-posedness of weak solutions to the Cauchy problem for a broad class of multi-dimensional $n\times n$ Keyfitz-Kranzer type systems with homogeneous flux. Our proof relies on a novel viscous approximation that yields the necessary compactness estimates. By exploiting the specific structure of...

A boundedness result for degenerate parabolic Riesz transforms with rough coefficients

In this paper, we prove a boundedness result for parabolic Riesz transforms in the range $p \le 2$ associated with degenerate parabolic operators whose elliptic part is in divergence form with complex coefficients depending measurably on space and time. The degeneracy is determined by a spatial weight in the Muckenhoup...
