This paper investigates the existence of a uniform in time $L^{\infty}$ bounded weak entropy solution for the quasilinear parabolic-parabolic Keller-Segel model with the supercritical diffusion exponent $0 < m < 2-\frac{2}{d}$ in the multi-dimensional space ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ under the condition that the $L^{\frac{d(2-m)}{2}}$ norm of initial data is smaller than a universal constant. Moreover, the weak entropy solution $u(x,t)$ satisfies mass conservation when $m > 1-\frac{2}{d}$. We also prove the local existence of weak entropy solutions and a blow-up criterion for general $L^1\cap L^{\infty}$ initial data.

Using the convex integration technique for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations introduced by T. Buckmaster and V. Vicol, it is shown the existence of non-unique weak solutions for the 3D Navier-Stokes equations with fractional hyperviscosity $(-\Delta)^{\theta}$, whenever the exponent $\theta$ is less than J.-L. Lions' exponent $5/4$, i.e., when $\theta < 5/4$.

The nonlinear Schrdinger equation (NLS) has been a fundamental model for understanding vortex motion in superfluids. The vortex motion law has been formally derived on various physical grounds and has been around for almost half a century. We study the nonlinear Schrdinger equation in the incompressible fluid limit on a bounded domain with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary condition. The initial condition contains any finite number of degree 1 vortices. We prove that the NLS linear momentum weakly converges to a solution of the incompressible Euler equation away from the vortices. If the initial NLS energy is almost minimizing, we show that the vortex motion obeys the classical Kirchhoff law for fluid point vortices. Similar results hold for the entire plane and periodic cases, and a related complex GinzburgLandau equation. We treat as well the semi-classical (WKB) limit of NLS in the presence of

In this paper we are concerned with the existence of a weak solution to the initial boundary value problem for the equation ∂ t u=Δ(Δu) −3 . This problem arises in the mathematical modeling of the evolution of a crystal surface. Existence of a weak solution u with Δu≥0 is obtained via a suitable substitution. Our investigations reveal the close connection between this problem and the equation ∂ t ρ+ρ 2 Δ 2 ρ 3 =0 , another crystal surface model first proposed by H. Al Hajj Shehadeh, R. V. Kohn and J.
