Quantitative estimates for advective equation with degenerate anelastic constraint
Abstract
In this work with P.--E. Jabin, we are interested in quantitative estimates for advective equations with an anelastic constraint in presence of vacuum. More precisely, we derive a stability estimate and obtain the existence of renormalized solutions. The method itself introduces weights which sole a dual equation and allow to propagate appropriatly weighted norms on the initial solution. In a second time, a control on where those weights may vanish allow to deduce global and precise quantitative regularity estimates.
Jumps and motivic invariants of semiabelian Jacobians
Abstract
We investigate Néron models of Jacobians of singular curves over strictly Henselian discretely valued fields, and their behaviour under tame base change. For a semiabelian variety, this behaviour is governed by a finite sequence of (a priori) real numbers between 0 and 1, called "jumps". The jumps are conjectured to be rational, which is known in some cases. The purpose of this paper is to prove this conjecture in the case where the semiabelian variety is the Jacobian of a geometrically integral curve with a push-out singularity. Along the way, we prove the conjecture for algebraic tori which are induced along finite separable extensions, and generalize Raynaud's description of the identity component of the Néron model of the Jacobian of a smooth curve (in terms of the Picard functor of a proper, flat, and regular model) to our situation. The main technical result of this paper is that the exact sequence which decomposes the Jacobian of one of our singular curves into its toric and Abelian parts extends to an exact sequence of Néron models. Previously, only split semiabelian varieties were known to have this property.
