Our focus is on the free boundary regularity of the tumor patch that holds beyond topological changes. A crucial element in our analysis is establishing the regularity of the <i>hitting time</i> <i>T</i>(<i>x</i>), namely the first time the tumor patch reaches a given point. We achieve this by introducing a novel Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) interpretation of the pressure, which is of independent interest. The HJB structure is obtained by viewing the model as a limit of the Porous Media Equation (PME) and building upon a new variant of the AB estimate. Using the HJB structure, we establish a new Hopf-Lax type formula for the pressure variable. Combined with barrier arguments, the formula allows us to show that <i>T</i> is <span>(C^{alpha })</span> with <span>(alpha =alpha (d))</span>, which translates into a mild nondegeneracy of the tumor patch evolution. Building on this and obstacle problem theory, we show that the tumor patch boundary is regular in <span>({ mathbb {R}}^dtimes (0,infty ))</span> except on a set of Hausdorff dimension at most <span>(d-alpha )</span>. On the set of regular points, we further show that the tumor patch is locally <span>(C^{1,alpha })</span> in space-time. This conclusively establishes that instabilities in the boundary evolution do not amplify arbitrarily high frequencies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55484,"journal":{"name":"Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis","volume":"249 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142941128","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}

{"title":"Remarkable Localized Integral Identities for 3D Compressible Euler Flow and the Double-Null Framework","authors":"Leonardo Abbrescia,&nbsp;Jared Speck","doi":"10.1007/s00205-024-01997-7","DOIUrl":"10.1007/s00205-024-01997-7","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>We derive new, localized geometric integral identities for solutions to the 3<i>D</i> compressible Euler equations under an arbitrary equation of state when the sound speed is positive. The integral identities are coercive in the derivatives of the specific vorticity (defined to be vorticity divided by density) and the derivatives of the entropy gradient vectorfield, and the error terms exhibit remarkable regularity and null structures. Our framework plays a fundamental role in our companion works (Abbrescia L, Speck J. The emergence of the singular boundary from the crease in 3<i>D</i> compressible Euler flow, 2022; Abbrescia and Speck, The emergence of the Cauchy horizon from the crease in 3<i>D</i> compressible Euler flow (in preparation)) on the structure of the maximal classical development for shock-forming solutions. It allows one to simultaneously unleash the full power of the geometric vectorfield method for both the wave- and transport- parts of the flow on compact regions, and our approach reveals fundamental new coordinate-invariant structural features of the flow. In particular, the integral identities yield localized control over one additional derivative of the vorticity and entropy compared to standard results, assuming that the initial data enjoy the same gain. Similar results hold for the solution’s higher derivatives. We derive the identities in detail for two classes of spacetime regions that frequently arise in PDE applications: (i) compact spacetime regions that are globally hyperbolic with respect to the acoustical metric, where the top and bottom boundaries are acoustically spacelike—but not necessarily equal to portions of constant Cartesian-time hypersurfaces; and (ii) compact regions covered by double-acoustically null foliations. Our results have implications for the geometry and regularity of solutions, the formation of shocks, the structure of the maximal classical development of the data, and for controlling solutions whose state along a pair of intersecting characteristic hypersurfaces is known. Our analysis relies on a recent new formulation of the compressible Euler equations that splits the flow into a geometric wave-part coupled to a div-curl-transport part. The main new contribution of the present article is our analysis of the spacelike, co-dimension one and two boundary integrals that arise in the div-curl identities. By exploiting interplay between the elliptic and hyperbolic parts of the new formulation and using careful geometric decompositions, we observe several crucial cancellations, which in total show that after a further integration with respect to an acoustical time function, the boundary integrals have a good sign, up to error terms that can be controlled due to their good null structure and regularity properties.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55484,"journal":{"name":"Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis","volume":"249 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00205-024-01997-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142880508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our existence theory moves beyond the purely elastic setting and accounts for material failure by addressing free-discontinuity problems where both deformations and Eulerian fields are allowed to jump. To do this, we build upon the work of Henao and Mora-Corral regarding the variational modeling of cavitation and fracture in nonlinear elasticity. Two main settings are considered by modeling deformations as Sobolev and SBV-maps, respectively. The regularity of Eulerian maps is specified in each of these two settings according to the geometric and topological properties of the deformed configuration.
