We study small random perturbations by additive white-noise of a spatial discretization of a reaction-diffusion equation with a stable equilibrium and solutions that blow up in finite time. We prove that the perturbed system blows up with…
This study is motivated by the question of how singularity formation and other forms of extreme behavior in nonlinear dissipative partial differential equations are affected by stochastic excitations. To address this question we consider…
We investigate the Cauchy problem for a semilinear spatio--temporal fractional diffusion equation with a time-dependent forcing term: \[ \partial_t^\alpha u + (-\Delta)^{\mathsf{s}} u = |u|^p + t^{\sigma}\,\mathbf{w}(x), \quad (t,x) \in…
We examine the short and long-time behaviors of time-fractional diffusion equations with variable space-dependent order. More precisely, we describe the time-evolution of the solution to these equations as the time parameter goes either to…

Consider the stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with logarithmic nonlinearity driven by space-time white noise: \begin{align}\label{1.a} \left\{ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{d}u(t,x) = \frac{1}{2}\Delta u(t,x)\,\mathrm{d}t+ b(u(t,x))…

Physical notions of stochastic resonance for potential diffusions in periodically changing double-well potentials such as the spectral power amplification have proved to be defective. They are not robust for the passage to their effective…
We are concerned with a nonlinear nonautonomous model represented by an equation describing the dynamics of an age-structured population diffusing in a space habitat $O,$ governed by local Lipschitz vital factors and by a stochastic…
In this work we are interested in the study of a class of anisotropic porous medium-type equations whose prototype is \[ u_t =\sum_{i=1}^N \left( m_i u^{m_i-1} u_{x_i} \right)_{x_i} \ , \qquad 0<m_1 \leq \cdots \leq m_N <1 \ , \] for which…
This paper is devoted to the study of noise effects on blow-up solutions to stochastic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. It is a continuation of our recent work \cite{BRZ14}, where the (local) well-posedness is established in $H^1$, also…
We consider the inhomogeneous Landau equation with $\gamma \in (\sqrt{3},2]$ and construct smooth, strictly positive initial data that develop a finite time singularity. The $C^{\alpha}$-norm of the distribution function blows up for every…

We construct a planar diffusion process whose infinitesimal generator depends only on the order of the components of the process. Speaking informally and a bit imprecisely for the moment, imagine you run two Brownian-like particles on the…
