Abstract

We discuss some ill-posedness results for solutions arising from the Picard iterations algorithm (i.e. the Banach fixed-point theorem) in the case of the nonlinear heat equation, the viscous Hamilton–Jacobi equation, the convection–diffusion equation and the incompressible Navier–Stokes system.
