Let $\mathcal{M} =\{m_{j}\}_{j=1}^{\infty}$ be a family of Marcinkiewicz multipliers of sufficient uniform smoothness in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ . We show that the$L$^{$p$}norm, 1<$p$<∞, of the related maximal operator $$M_Nf(x)= \sup_{1\leq j \leq N} |\mathcal{F}^{-1} ( m_j \mathcal{F} f)|(x) $$ is at most$C$(log($N$+2))^{$n$/2}. We show that this bound is sharp.

In this work, we give a perturbation theorem for strong polynomial solutions to the zero surface tension Hele-Shaw equation driven by injection or suction, the so called Polubarinova–Galin equation. This theorem enables us to explore properties of solutions with initial functions close to polynomials. Applications of this theorem are given in the suction and injection cases. In the former case, we show that if the initial domain is close to a disk, most of the fluid will be sucked before the strong solution blows up. In the latter case, we obtain precise large-time rescaling behaviors for large data to Hele-Shaw flows in terms of invariant Richardson complex moments. This rescaling behavior result generalizes a recent result regarding large-time rescaling behavior for small data in terms of moments. As a byproduct of a theorem in this paper, a short proof of existence and uniqueness of strong solutions to the Polubarinova–Galin equation is given.

In this paper we consider the initial-boundary value problem to the one-dimensional compressible Navier{Stokes equations for ideal gases. Both the viscous and heat conductive coeffcients are assumed to be positive constants, and the initial density is allowed to have vacuum. Global existence and uniqueness of strong solutions is established for any H2 initial data, which generalizes the well-known result of Kazhikhov and Shelukhin [J. Appl. Math. Mech., 41 (1977), pp. 273{282] to the case that with nonnegative initial density. An observation to overcome the diculty caused by the lack of the positive lower bound of the density is that the ratio of the density to its initial value is inversely proportional to the time integral of the upper bound of the temperature along the trajectory.

Let F :RN→RN be a locally Lipschitz continuous function. We prove that F is a global homeomorphism or only injective, under suitable assumptions on the subdifferential ∂F(x). We use variational methods, nonsmooth inverse function theorem and extensions of the Hadamard-Levy Theorem. We also address questions on the Markus-Yamabe conjecture.
