''On the regularity of limit space''
This is a joint work with Gang Tian.
In this talk, we will discuss how to improve regularity of the limit space by Ricci flow.
We study the structure of the limit space of a sequence of almost Einstein
manifolds, which are generalizations of Einstein manifolds. Roughly speaking, such
manifolds are the initial manifolds of some normalized Ricci flows whose scalar
curvatures are almost constants over space-time in the L1-sense, Ricci curvatures
are bounded from below at the initial time. Under the non-collapsed condition,
we show that the limit space of a sequence of almost Einstein manifolds has most
properties which is known for the limit space of Einstein manifolds. As applications,
we can apply our structure results to study the properties of K¨ahler manifolds.

'' Exponential separation between positive and sign-changing solutions and its applications''
In linear nonautonomous second-order parabolic equations, the exponential separation refers to the exponential decay of any sign-changing solution relative to any positive solution. In this lecture, after summarizing key results on  exponential separation, we show how it can be effectively used in studies of some nonlinear parabolic problems.

''Estimates on fractional higher derivatives of weak solutions for the Navier-Stokes equations''
We study weak solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations with L^2 initial data. We
prove that k-th derivative of weak solutions is locally integrable in space-time for any
real k such that 1 < k < 3. Up to now, only the second derivative was known to be locally
integrable by standard parabolic regularization. We also present sharp estimates of those
quantities in weak-L^{4/(k+1)} locally. These estimates depend only on the L^2 norm of
the initial data and on the domain of integration. Moreover, they are valid even for k >=
3 as long as we have a smooth solution. The proof uses a standard approximation of
Navier-Stokes from Leray and a blow-up techniques. The local study is based on De Giorgi
techniques with a new pressure decomposition. To handle the non-locality of fractional
Laplacians, Hardy space and Maximal functions are introduced. This is joint work with A.
Vasseur.

''Confinement for nonlocal interaction equation with repulsive-attractive kernels''
In this talk, we consider sets of particles interacting pairwise via a potential W, which is repulsive at short distances, but attractive at long distances.  The main question we consider is whether an initially compactly supported configuration remains compactly supported for all times, regardless of the number of particles. We improved the sufficient conditions on the potential W for the above confinement property to hold. This is a joint work with Jose Carrillo and Daniel Balague.

Transonic shocks for Euler-Poisson system and related problems

Abstract: Euler-Poisson system models various physical phenomena including the propagation of electrons in submicron semiconductor devices and plasmas, and the biological transport of ions for channel proteins. I will explain difference between Euler system and Euler-Poisson system and mathematical difficulties arising due to this difference. And, recent results about subsonic flow and transonic flow for Euler-Poisson system will be presented. This talk is based on collaboration with Ben Duan and Chunjing Xie.
