Nonuniform Ellipticity Widespread

Project description

Rethinking non-linear equations

Partial differential equations (PDEs) are the language of physical systems. PDEs are central in the modelling of complex phenomena such as fluid flow, wave propagation, heat transfer, electromagnetism and elasticity. A crucial aspect is the (ir)regularity of solutions, which is fundamental for describing their qualitative properties. The ERC-funded NEW project is pushing the boundaries of the analysis of non-linear equations by addressing key regularity challenges in settings where classical theory fails. Achievements include sharp analysis data/solutions in nonuniformly elliptic or parabolic PDEs, maximal regularity for degenerate or nonlocal operators and singular set estimates in vectorial problems. Beyond theoretical advances, the outcome will transform techniques and perspectives developed through half a century of progress in non-linear regularity theory.

Objective

Project NEW tackles key challenges in nonlinear elliptic and parabolic regularity theory. The outcome answers to fundamental open questions. Achievements include sharp analysis data-solutions in nonuniformly elliptic or parabolic PDEs, singular set estimates in vectorial problems, and maximal regularity in degenerate (possibly nonlocal) monotone operators lacking strong monotonicity properties. These results are supported by innovative hybrid techniques, combining deep insights from harmonic analysis, nonlinear potential theory, and variational analysis, specifically devised to be implemented directly at the PDE level. Beyond technical and theoretical advances, the accomplishments will significantly impact Non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, homogenization, and geometric analysis, transforming techniques and perspectives developed through half a century of progress in nonlinear regularity theory.
