We study a semi-linear version of the Skyrme system due to Adkins and Nappi. The objects in this system are maps from $(1+3)$-dimensional Minkowski space into the $3$-sphere and 1-forms on $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$, coupled via a Lagrangian…
In this paper we first show that, under certain conditions, the solution of a single quadratic diophantine equation in four variables $Q(x_1,\,x_2,\,x_3,\,x_4)=0$ can be expressed in terms of bilinear forms in four parameters. We use this…
We consider the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation \partial_t u + \partial_x (\partial_x^2 u + f(u))=0, \quad (t,x)\in [0,T)\times \mathbb{R}, (1) with general $C^3$ nonlinearity $f$. Under an explicit condition on $f$ and $c>0$, there…
Three $q$-Painlev\'e type equations are derived through degenerations of the $q$-Painlev\'e equation with affine Weyl group symmetry of type $q$-$E_8^{(1)}$. The three $q$-Painlev\'e type equations are associated with different realizations…
We consider a scalar parabolic equation in one spatial dimension. The equation is constituted by a convective term, a reaction term with one or two equilibria, and a positive diffusivity which can however vanish. We prove the existence and…
We are concerned with the nodal set of solutions to equations of the form \begin{equation*} -\Delta u = \lambda_+ \left(u^+\right)^{q-1} - \lambda_- \left(u^-\right)^{q-1} \quad \text{in $B_1$} \end{equation*} where $\lambda_+,\lambda_- >…
We study the stability of an explicitly known, non-trivial self-similar blowup solution of the quadratic wave equation in the lowest energy supercritical dimension $d = 7$. This solution blows up at a single point and extends naturally away…
We prove concavity properties for solutions to anisotropic quasi-linear equations, extending previous results known in the Euclidean case. We focus the attention on nonsmooth anisotropies and in particular we also allow the functions…
We focus on minimally coupled (multi)field quintessence models, of thawing type, and their realistic solutions. In a model-independent manner, we describe analytically these cosmological solutions throughout the universe history. Starting…
We prove an extended lifespan result for the full gravity-capillary water waves system with a $2$ dimensional periodic interface: for initial data of sufficiently small size $\varepsilon$, smooth solutions exist up to times of the order of…
A q-difference analogue of the Painlev\'e III equation is considered. Its derivations, affine Weyl group symmetry, and two kinds of special function type solutions are discussed.
The integrability (solvability via an associated single-valued linear problem) of a differential equation is closely related to the singularity structure of its solutions. In particular, there is strong evidence that all integrable…
In this paper we consider the generalized surface quasi-geostrophic $\alpha$-SQG equations, in the "sublinear regime" $\alpha \in (0, 1)$ and we study the stability of vortex patches close to vortex discs. We shall prove that for regular,…
In this paper, we revisit the asymptotic formulas of real Painlev\'e I transcendents as the independent variable tends to negative infinity, which were initially derived by Kapaev with the complex WKB method. Using the Riemann-Hilbert…
We consider the symmetry-breaking steady state bifurcation of a spatially-uniform equilibrium solution of E(2)-equivariant PDEs. We restrict the space of solutions to those that are doubly-periodic with respect to a square or hexagonal…
We introduce a two-parameter continuity path for the J-equation and use it to characterize the solvability of the J-equation for K\"ahler metrics with Poincar\'e type singularities along a divisor $D$, allowing simple normal crossings and…
Here we study the Dirichlet problem for first order linear and quasi-linear hyperbolic PDEs on a simply connected bounded domain of $\R^2$, where the domain has an interior outflow set and a mere inflow boundary. By means of a Lyapunov…
We report unphysical irregularities and discontinuities in some key experimentally-measurable quantities computed within the GW approximation of many-body perturbation theory applied to molecular systems. In particular, we show that the…
In this paper, we introduce a new class of quasilinear operators, which represents a nonlocal version of the operator studied by Stuart and Zhou [1], inspired by models in nonlinear optics. We will study the existence of at least one or two…
In this paper, we consider a family of piecewise constant solutions of the quasi-geostrophic shallow-water (QGSW) equation. We derive the contour dynamics equation of the QGSW front, which is a nonlinear, nonlocal dispersive equation, and…
