Edge states attract more and more research interests owing to the novel topologically protected properties. In this work, we studied edge modes and traveling edge states via the linear Dirac equation with so-called edge-admissible masses. The unidirectional edge state provides a heuristic approach to more general traveling edge states through the localized behavior along slowly varying edges. We show the dominated asymptotic solutions of two typical edge states that follow circular and curved edges with small curvature by the analytic and quantitative arguments.

In this paper, we define boundary single and double layer potentials for Laplace’s equation in certain bounded domains with$d$-Ahlfors regular boundary, considerably more general than Lipschitz domains. We show that these layer potentials are invertible as mappings between certain Besov spaces and thus obtain layer potential solutions to the regularity, Neumann, and Dirichlet problems with boundary data in these spaces.

We studied coupled systems of the Fokker--Planck equation and the Navier--Stokes equation modeling the Hookean and the finitely extensible nonlinear elastic (FENE)-type polymeric flows. We proved the continuous embedding and compact embedding theorems in weighted spaces that naturally arise from related entropy estimates. These embedding estimates are shown to be sharp. For the Hookean polymeric system with a center-of-mass diffusion and a superlinear spring potential, we proved the existence of a global weak solution. Moreover, we were able to tackle the FENE model with $L^2$ initial data for the polymer density instead of the $L^\infty$ counterpart in the literature.

This note studies the Monge-Ampère Keller–Segel equation in a periodic domain , a fully nonlinear modification of the Keller–Segel equation where the Monge-Ampère equation substitutes for the usual Poisson equation . The existence of global weak solutions is obtained for this modified equation. Moreover, we prove the regularity in for some .
