The effective, fast transport of matter through porous media is often characterized by complex dispersion effects. To describe in mathematical terms such situations, instead of a simple macroscopic equation (as in the classical Darcy's…

We consider a one-dimensional nonlocal nonlinear equation of the form: $\partial_t u = (\Lambda^{-\alpha} u)\partial_x u - \nu \Lambda^{\beta}u$ where $\Lambda =(-\partial_{xx})^{\frac 12}$ is the fractional Laplacian and $\nu\ge 0$ is the…
