Nonlinear Stability of 3D Muskat Bubbles

Abstract

This paper studies the three-dimensional Muskat problem for two immiscible fluids in a porous medium subject to gravity and surface tension. We consider the setting in which one fluid forms a bounded bubble surrounded by the other. For any value of the physical parameters, we prove the global-in-time nonlinear asymptotic stability of a translating spherical bubble for small initial perturbations in the critical Lipschitz class. This enlarges the class of critical spaces considered in previous two-dimensional bubble results. The proof combines spectral analysis of the linearized operator on 𝕊2 with multilinear singular integral estimates that exploit a crucial null structure in the nonlinear terms.
