In this note we consider regularity theory for a fractional p-Laplace operator which arises in the complex interpolation of the Sobolev spaces, the $H^{s,p}$-Laplacian. We obtain the natural analogue to the classical p-Laplacian situation, namely $C^{s+α}$-regularity for the loc homogeneous equation.

We prove uniform gradient and diameter estimates for a family of geometric complex Monge–Ampere equations. Such estimates can be applied to study geometric regularity of singular solutions of complex Monge–Ampere equations. We also prove a uniform diameter estimate for collapsing families of twisted Kahler–Einstein metrics on Kahler manifolds of nonnegative Kodaira dimensions.

In a recent important breakthrough D. Christodoulou has solved a long standing problem of General Relativity of evolutionary formation of trapped surfaces in the Einstein-vacuum space-times. He has identified an open set of regular initial conditions on an outgoing null hypersurface (both finite and at past null infinity) leading to a formation a trapped surface in the corresponding vacuum space-time to the future of the initial outgoing hypersurface and another incoming null hypersurface with the prescribed Minkowskian data. In this paper we give a simpler proof for a finite problem by enlarging the admissible set of initial conditions and, consistent with this, relaxing the corresponding propagation estimates just enough that a trapped surface still forms. We also reduce the number of derivatives needed in the argument from two derivatives of the curvature to just one. More importantly, the proof, which can be easily localized with respect to angular sectors, has the potential for further developments.

We prove global existence and a modified scattering property for the solutions of the 2D gravity water waves system in the infinite depth setting for a class of initial data, which is only required to be small above the level \dot{H}^{1/5}\times \dot{H}^{1/2+1/5}. No assumption is made below this level. Therefore, the nonlinear solution can have infinite energy. As a direct consequence, the momentum condition assumed on the physical velocity in all previous small energy results by Ionescu‐Pusateri, Alazard‐Delort, and Ifrim‐Tataru is removed.
