We consider the one-dimensional degenerate parabolic equation $$ u_t - (x^\alpha u_x)_x =0 \qquad x\in(0,1),\ t \in (0,T) ,$$ controlled by a boundary force acting at the degeneracy point $x=0$. First we study the reachable targets at some…

We study the obstacle problem for parabolic operators of the type $\partial_t + L$, where $L$ is an elliptic integro-differential operator of order $2s$, such as $(-\Delta)^s$, in the supercritical regime $s \in (0,{1/2})$. The best result…
For a Riemannian manifold $M$, possibly with boundary, we consider the Riemannian product $M\times\mathbb{R}^k$ with a smooth positive function that weights the Riemannian measures. In this work we characterize parabolic hypersurfaces with…
Our goal is to establish existence with suitable initial data of solutions to general parabolic equation in one dimension, $u_t = L(u_x)_x$, where $L$ is merely a monotone function. We also expose the basic properties of solutions,…
We consider a parabolic equation in a bounded domain $\OOO$ over a time interval $(0,T)$ with the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. We arbitrarily choose a subboundary $\Gamma \subset \ppp\OOO$. Then, we discuss an inverse problem of…

It was shown recently that the constraints on the initial data for Einstein's equations may be posed as an evolutionary problem [9]. In one of the proposed two methods the constraints can be replaced by a first order symmetrizable…
A general backward stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control problem is studied, in which both the state equation and the cost functional contain the nonhomogeneous terms. The main feature of the problem is that the weighting matrices in…
We consider inverse curvature flows in hyperbolic space with starshaped initial hypersurface, driven by positive powers of a homogeneous curvature function. The solutions exist for all time and, after rescaling, converge to a sphere.
Let $A_q(\alpha',\alpha,k)$ be the scattering amplitude, corresponding to a local potential $q(x)$, $x\in\R^3$, $q(x)=0$ for $|x|>a$, where $a>0$ is a fixed number, $\alpha',\alpha\in S^2$ are unit vectors, $S^2$ is the unit sphere in…

We analyze controllability properties for the one-dimensional heat equation with singular inverse-square potential $$ u_t-u_{xx}-\frac{\mu}{x^2}u=0,\;\;\; (x,t)\in(0,1)\times(0,T).$$ For any $\mu<1/4$, we prove that the equation is null…
Let $u_t-u_{xx}=h(t)$ in $0\leq x \leq \pi, t\geq 0.$ Assume that $u(0,t)=v(t)$, $u(\pi,t)=0$, and $u(x,0)=g(t)$. The problem is: {\it what extra data determine the three unknown functions $\{h, v, g\}$ uniquely?}. This question is answered…
