We show a global existence result for a doubly nonlinear porous medium type equation of the form $$u_t = \Delta_p u^m +\, u^q$$ on a complete and non-compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of infinite volume. Here, for $1<p<N$, we assume…
The aim of this paper is to give global nonexistence and blow--up results for the problem $$ \begin{cases} u_{tt}-\Delta u+P(x,u_t)=f(x,u) \qquad &\text{in $(0,\infty)\times\Omega$,}\\ u=0 &\text{on $(0,\infty)\times \Gamma_0$,}\\…
We give conditions for when continuous orbit equivalence of one-sided shift spaces implies flow equivalence of the associated two-sided shift spaces. Using groupoid techniques, we prove that this is always the case for shifts of finite…
Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $f: M_n \rightarrow [0,\infty)$ be a continuous map such that $f(\mu UAU^*)= f(A)$ for any complex unit $\mu$, $A \in M_n$ and unitary $U \in M_n$, $f(X)=0$ if and only if $X=0$…
We construct the traveling wave solutions of an FKPP growth process of two densities of particles, and prove that the critical traveling waves are locally stable in a space where the perturbations can grow exponentially at the back of the…
We prove the monotonicity of positive solutions to the problem $-\Delta u = f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N_+ := \{(x',x_N)\in\mathbb{R}^N \mid x_N>0 \}$ under zero Dirichlet boundary condition with a possible singular nonlinearity $f$. In some…
We develop a theory which allows making qualitative conclusions about the dynamics of both monotone and non-monotone Moreau sweeping processes. Specifically, we first prove that any sweeping processes with almost periodic monotone…
We consider in this paper a reaction-diffusion system in presence of a flow and under a KPP hypothesis. While the case of a single-equation has been extensively studied since the pioneering Kolmogorov-Petrovski-Piskunov paper, the study of…
We are interested in the existence of depolarization waves in the human brain. These waves propagate in the grey matter and are absorbed in the white matter. We consider a two-dimensional model $u_t=\Delta u + f(u) \1_{|y|\leq R} - \alpha u…
For any fixed irrational frequency and trigonometric-polynomial potential, we show that every type I energy with positive Lyapunov exponent that satisfies the gap-labelling condition is a boundary of an open spectral gap. As a corollary,…
We jointly investigate the existence of quasi-stationary distributions for one dimensional L\'evy processes and the existence of traveling waves for the Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov (F-KPP) equation associated with the same motion.…
We investigate whether the ultrafilter number function $\kappa \mapsto \mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ on the cardinals is monotone, that is, whether $\mathfrak{u}(\lambda) \le \mathfrak{u}(\kappa)$ holds for all cardinals $\lambda < \kappa$ or not.…
This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of the Fisher-KPP equation in a heterogeneous medium, $$\partial_t u = \partial_{xx} u + f(x,u),$$ associated with a compactly supported initial datum. A typical nonlinearity…
This paper is concerned with two-dimensional, steady, periodic water waves propagating at the free surface of water in a flow of constant vorticity over an impermeable flat bed. The motion of these waves is assumed to be governed both by…

In this paper we consider the discrete Allen-Cahn equation posed on a two-dimensional rectangular lattice. We analyze the large-time behaviour of solutions that start as bounded perturbations to the well-known planar front solution that…
A fundamental theorem of Liouville asserts that positive entire harmonic functions in Euclidean spaces must be constant. A remarkable Liouville-type theorem of Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck states that positive entire solutions of $-\Delta u=u^{…
We consider positive travelling fronts of the time-delayed reaction-diffusion equation with the monostable birth function. Our main result says that for every fixed and sufficiently large velocity c, the positive travelling front is unique…
Stability of the traveling wave solution to a general class of one-dimensional nonlocal evolution equations is studied in $L^2$-spaces, thereby providing an alternative approach to the usual spectral analysis with respect to the supremum…
This paper is concerned with the traveling waves of delayed reaction-diffusion systems where the reaction function possesses the mixed quasimonotonicity property. By the so-called monotone iteration scheme and Schauder's fixed point…
