In this system, mixing effects arise from the shearing background, and gravity acts as a restoring force leading to dispersive internal gravity waves.

The main feature of these results, as opposed to previously known ones, is the lack of regularity or no‐vacuum requirements on the initial data. With a particular application to the classical kinetic Cucker–Smale model, we demonstrate that any bounded data with finite higher moment, , , gives rise to a global instantly smooth solution, satisfying entropy equality and relaxing exponentially fast. The results are achieved through the use of a new thickness‐based renormalization procedure, which circumvents the problem of degenerate diffusion in nonperturbative regime.","PeriodicalId":10601,"journal":{"name":"Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics","volume":"24 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147739343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our proof is based on a direct analysis of the asymptotic scattering relation, an equation that approximately governs the dynamics of quasiparticles locations. This makes use of a regularization argument that essentially linearizes this relation, together with concentration estimates for the Toda lattice's (random) Lax matrix.","PeriodicalId":10601,"journal":{"name":"Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147719935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our argument relies on a combination of regularity structures, lattice gauge‐fixing and Bourgain's method for invariant measures. Several corollaries are presented including a gauge‐fixed decomposition of the YM measure into a Gaussian free field and an almost Lipschitz remainder, and a proof of universality for the YM measure that we derive from a universality for the Langevin dynamic for a wide class of discrete approximations. The latter includes standard lattice gauge theories associated to Wilson, Villain and Manton actions. An important step in the argument, which is of independent interest, is a proof of uniqueness for the mass renormalisation of the gauge‐covariant continuum Langevin dynamic, which allows us to identify the limit of discrete approximations. This latter result relies on Euler estimates for singular SPDEs and for Young ODEs arising from Wilson loops.","PeriodicalId":10601,"journal":{"name":"Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147518739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
