In this paper, we remove the assumption on the gradient of the Ricci curvature in Hamilton's matrix Harnack estimate for the heat equation on all closed manifolds, answering a question which has been around since the 1990s. New ingredients…
Existence of strong solutions to a nonlocal semilinear heat equation is shown. The main feature of the equation is that the nonlocal term depends on the unknown on the whole time interval of existence, the latter being given a priori. The…

Numerical solution of the Poisson equation in metallic enclosures, open at one or more ends, is important in many practical situations such as High Power Microwave (HPM) or photo-cathode devices. It requires imposition of a suitable…

A generally relativistic theory of thermodynamics is developed, based on four main physical principles: heat is a local form of energy, therefore described by a thermal energy tensor; conservation of mass, equivalent to conservation of…
We derive an explicit representation of the fundamental solution to the heat equation in a half-space of ${\mathbb R}^N$ with a diffusive dynamical boundary condition, and establish sharp pointwise upper and lower bounds. We also…
