In this work, by considering an isentropic fluid-fluid interaction model with a large symmetric drag force, a commonly used simplified two-fluids flow model is justified as the asymptotic limit. Equations for each fluid component with an…
Convertible bonds give rise to the so-called free boundary; i.e., an unknown boundary between continuation and conversion regions of the bond. The characteristic feature of such a bond, with an extra call feature, is that the free boundary…
Classical theory predicts that for two competing populations subject to a constant downstream drift, the faster disperser will competitively exclude the slower disperser. In the current work, we consider a novel model of a "much faster"…
A model describing the competition of two species for a common nutrient is studied. It is assumed that one of the competitors is motionless while the other has the ability to move upwards gradients of the nutrient density. It is proved that…

Some aspects of asymptotic freedom are discussed in the context of a simple two-particle non-relativisitic confining potential model. In this model asymptotic freedom follows from the similarity of the free-particle and bound state radial…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the symmetric zero-range process in the finite lattice $\{1,\ldots, N-1\}$ with slow boundary, in which particles are created at site $1$ or annihilated at site $N\!-\!1$ with a rate proportional to…
Using an abstract scheme of monotone semiflows, the existence of bistable traveling wave solutions of a competitive recursion system with Ricker nonlinearity is established. The traveling wave solutions formulate the strong inter-specific…
We consider a reaction-diffusion system for two densities lying in adjacent domains of $\mathbb{R}^N$. We treat two configurations: either a cylinder and its complement, or two half-spaces. Diffusion and reaction heterogeneities for the two…
We consider a Hamiltonian system of free boundary type, showing first uniform bounds and existence of solutions and of the free boundary. Then, for any smooth and bounded domain, we prove uniqueness of positive solutions in a suitable…
We introduce and analyze a nonlocal version of the one-phase Stefan problem in which, as in the classical model, the rate of growth of the volume of the liquid phase is proportional to the rate at which energy is lost through the…
We consider a two-species competition-diffusion system involving a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$ and discuss the validity of formal asymptotic expansions of solutions near the sharp interface limit $\varepsilon\approx0$. We assume that…
The current paper is concerned with the asymptotic dynamics of two species competition systems with/without chemotaxis in heterogeneous media. In the previous work \cite{ITBWS17a}, we find conditions on the parameters in such systems for…
This paper investigates the large time behaviour of a three species reaction-diffusion system, modelling the spatial invasion of two predators feeding on a single prey species. In addition to the competition for food, the two predators…
A class of diffusion driven Free Boundary Problems is considered which is characterized by the initial onset of a phase and by an explicit kinematic condition for the evolution of the free boundary. By a domain fixing change of variables it…

We consider an elliptic-parabolic free boundary problem that models the fluid flow through a partially saturated porous medium. The free boundary arises as the interface separating the saturated and unsaturated regions. Our main goal is to…
