We introduce a model concerning radiational gaseous stars and establish the existence theory of stationary solutions to the free boundary problem of hydrostatic equations describing the radiative equilibrium. We also establish in the spherically symmetric case the local well-posedness of the moving boundary problem of the corresponding Navier--Stokes--Fourier--Poisson system and construct a priori estimates of strong and classical solutions. Our results explore the vacuum behavior of density and temperature near the free boundary for the equilibrium and capture such degeneracy in the evolutionary problem.

In this paper, we establish the global C^{2,α} and W^{2,p} regularity for the Monge-Amp`ere equation det D^2u = f subject to boundary condition Du(Ω) = Ω^∗, where Ω and Ω^∗ are bounded convex domains in the Euclidean space R^n with C^{1,1} boundaries, and f is a Ho ̈lder continuous function. This boundary value problem arises naturally in optimal transportation and many other applications.

A longstanding question in the dual Brunn–Minkowski theory is “What are the dual analogues of Federer’s curvature measures for convex bodies?” The answer to this is provided. This leads naturally to dual versions of Minkowski-type problems: What are necessary and sufficient conditions for a Borel measure to be a dual curvature measure of a convex body? Sufficient conditions, involving measure concentration, are established for the existence of solutions to these problems.
