We study the extinction properties of highly porous BCCA dust aggregates in a wide range of complex refractive indices ($1.4 \le n \le 2.0$, $0.001 \le k \le 1.0$) and wavelength ($0.11\mu m \le \lambda \le 3.4\mu m$). An attempt has been…

In this paper we consider a large class of super-Brownian motions in $\mathbb{R}$ with spatially dependent branching mechanisms. We establish the almost sure growth rate of the mass located outside a time-dependent interval $(-\delta…

In \cite{fgn1}, the hydrodynamic limit in the diffusive scaling of the symmetric simple exclusion process with a finite number of slow bonds of strength $n^{-\beta}$ has been studied. Here $n$ is the scaling parameter and $\beta>0$ is…

In this note we present $L^\infty$-results for problems of the form $A(x,u,Du)=B(x,u,Du)$ in $\Omega$, $u>0$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$, where the growth condition for the function $B\colon \Omega \times \mathbb{R}\times…

The Katznelson-Tzafriri theorem is a central result in the asymptotic theory of discrete operator semigroups. It states that for a power-bounded operator $T$ on a Banach space we have $||T^n(I-T)\|\to0$ if and only if…

In a general measure space $(X,\mathcal L,\lambda)$, a characterization of weakly null sequences in $L_\infty (X,\mathcal L,\lambda)$ ($u_k \rightharpoonup 0$) in terms of their pointwise behaviour almost everywhere is derived from the…

We consider semiclassical Schr\"odinger operators on the real line of the form $$H(\hbar)=-\hbar^2 \frac{d^2}{dx^2}+V(\cdot;\hbar)$$ with $\hbar>0$ small. The potential $V$ is assumed to be smooth, positive and exponentially decaying…

The phenomenon of finite time extinction of bounded and non-negative solutions to the diffusion equation with strong absorption $$\partial_t u-\Delta u^m+|x|^{\sigma}u^q=0, \qquad (t,x)\in(0,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}^N,$$ with $m\geq1$,…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded connected open subset in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth boundary $\partial\Omega$. Suppose that we have a system of real smooth vector fields $X=(X_{1},X_{2},$ $\cdots,X_{m})$ defined on a neighborhood of…

Consider the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $\Lambda_\beta$ associated with the Schr\"odinger operator $(D+\beta \A)^2$ with a magnetic potential in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$, where $\beta>1$ is the field strength parameter. Assume that…

We consider the non-selfadjoint operator [\cH = [{array}{cc} -\Delta + \mu-V_1 & -V_2 V_2 & \Delta - \mu + V_1 {array}]] where $\mu>0$ and $V_1,V_2$ are real-valued decaying potentials. Such operators arise when linearizing a focusing NLS…

Type 1a supernova magnitudes conventionally include an additive parameter called the extinction coefficient. We find that the extinction coefficients of a popular ``gold'' set are well correlated with the deviation of magnitudes from Hubble…

The exclusive weak decay of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda l^{+} l^{-}$ are investigated in the Applequist-Cheng-Dobrescu model, which is an extension of the standard model in presence of universal extra…

The spectral bound, s(a A + b V), of a combination of a resolvent positive linear operator A and an operator of multiplication V, was shown by Kato to be convex in b \in R. This is shown here, through an elementary lemma, to imply that s(a…

This paper is concerned with the two-species chemotaxis-competition model with degenerate diffusion, \[\begin{cases} u_t = \Delta u^{m_1} - \chi_1 \nabla\cdot(u\nabla w) + \mu_1 u (1-u-a_1v), &x\in\Omega,\ t>0,\\% v_t = \Delta v^{m_2} -…

In this paper we obtain bounds for the decay rate in the $L^r (\rr^d)$-norm for the solutions to a nonlocal and nolinear evolution equation, namely, $$u_t(x,t) = \int_{\rr^d} K(x,y) |u(y,t)- u(x,t)|^{p-2} (u(y,t)- u(x,t)) \, dy, $$ with $ x…

We study the quasi-ergodicity of compact strong Feller semigroups $U_t$, $t > 0$, on $L^2(M,\mu)$; we assume that $M$ is a locally compact Polish space equipped with a locally finite Borel measue $\mu$. The operators $U_t$ are…
