We develop a new degree theory for 4‐dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over with non‐negative scalar curvature. We also obtain a similar existence result for cones whose link is diffeomorphic to if we allow the expanding soliton to have orbifold singularities. Our theory reveals the existence of a new topological invariant, called the expander degree , applicable to a particular class of compact, smooth 4‐orbifolds with boundary. This invariant is roughly equal to a signed count of all possible gradient expanding solitons that can be defined on the interior of the orbifold and are asymptotic to any fixed cone metric with non‐negative scalar curvature. If the expander degree of an orbifold is non‐zero, then gradient expanding solitons exist for any such cone metric. We show that the expander degree of the 4‐disk and any orbifold of the form equals 1. Additionally, we demonstrate that the expander degree of certain orbifolds, including exotic 4‐disks, vanishes. Our theory also sheds light on the relation between gradient and non‐gradient expanding solitons with respect to their asymptotic model. More specifically, we show that among the set of asymptotically conical expanding solitons, the subset of those solitons that are gradient forms a union of connected components.

Generalizing previous results of Arezzo–Pacard–Singer, Seyyedali–Székelyhidi, and Hallam, we prove the invariance under smooth blowups of the class of weighted extremal Kähler manifolds, modulo a log‐concavity assumption on the first weight. Through recent work of Di Nezza–Jubert–Lahdili and Han–Liu, this is obtained as a consequence of a general uniform coercivity estimate for the (relative, weighted) Mabuchi energy on the blowup, which applies more generally to any equivariant resolution of singularities of Fano type of a compact Kähler klt space whose Mabuchi energy is assumed to be coercive.

Understanding the transition mechanism of boundary layer flows is of great significance in physics and engineering, especially due to the current development of supersonic and hypersonic aircraft. In this paper, we construct multiple unstable acoustic modes so‐called, Mack modes , which play a crucial role during the early stage of transition in the supersonic boundary layer. To this end, we develop an inner‐outer gluing iteration to solve a hyperbolic‐elliptic mixed type and singular system.

We show that the classical inequalities of Berezin–Li–Yau and Kröger, valid for Riesz exponents , extend to certain values , provided the underlying domain is convex. We also study the corresponding optimization problems and describe the implications of a possible failure of Pólya's conjecture for convex sets in terms of Riesz means. These findings allow us to describe the asymptotic behavior of solutions of a spectral shape optimization problem for convex sets.

This work addresses the question of uniqueness and regularity of the minimizers of a convex but not strictly convex integral functional with linear growth in a two‐dimensional setting. The integrand – whose precise form derives directly from the theory of perfect plasticity – behaves quadratically close to the origin and grows linearly once a specific threshold is reached. Thus, in contrast with the only existing literature on uniqueness for functionals with linear growth, that is that which pertains to the generalized least gradient, the integrand is not a norm. We make use of hyperbolic conservation laws hidden in the structure of the problem to tackle uniqueness. Our argument strongly relies on the regularity of a vector field – the Cauchy stress in the terminology of perfect plasticity – which allows us to define characteristic lines and then to employ the method of characteristics. Using the detailed structure of the characteristic landscape evidenced in our preliminary study [5], we show that this vector field is actually continuous, save for possibly two points. The different behaviors of the energy density at zero and at infinity imply an inequality constraint on the Cauchy stress. Under a barrier type convexity assumption on the set where the inequality constraint is saturated, we show that uniqueness holds for pure Dirichlet boundary data devoid of any regularity properties, a stronger result than that of uniqueness for a given trace on the whole boundary since our minimizers can fail to attain the boundary data. We also show a partial regularity result for the minimizer.

Taking place naturally in a gas subject to a given wall temperature distribution, the “ghost effect” exhibits a rare kinetic effect beyond the prediction of classical fluid theory and Fourier law in such a classical problem in physics. As the Knudsen number goes to zero, the finite variation of temperature in the bulk is determined by an infinitesimal, ghost‐like velocity field, created by a given finite variation of the tangential wall temperature as predicted by Maxwell's slip boundary condition. Mathematically, such a finite variation leads to the presence of a severe singularity and a Knudsen layer approximation in the fundamental energy estimate. Neither difficulty is within the reach of any existing PDE theory on the steady Boltzmann equation in a general 3D bounded domain. Consequently, in spite of the discovery of such a ghost effect from temperature variation in as early as 1960s, its mathematical validity has been a challenging and intriguing open question, causing confusion and suspicion. We settle this open question in affirmative if the temperature variation is small but finite, by developing a new framework with four major innovations as follows: (1) a key ‐Hodge decomposition and its corresponding local ‐conservation law eliminate the severe bulk singularity, leading to a reduced energy estimate; (2) a surprising gain in via momentum conservation and a dual Stokes solution; (3) the ‐conservation, energy conservation, and a coupled dual Stokes–Poisson solution reduces to an boundary singularity; (4) a crucial construction of ‐cutoff boundary layer eliminates such boundary singularity via new Hardy's and BV estimates.

We first investigate torus‐equivariant motivic characteristic classes of toric varieties, and then apply them via the equivariant Riemann–Roch formalism to prove very general Euler–Maclaurin‐type formulae for full‐dimensional simple lattice polytopes.We consider ‐equivariant versions and of the motivic Chern and, resp., Hirzebruch characteristic classes of a toric variety (with corresponding torus ), and extend many known results from the non‐equivariant context to the equivariant setting. For example, the equivariant motivic Chern class is computed as the sum of the equivariant Grothendieck classes of the ‐equivariant sheaves of Zariski‐forms weighted by .
