We study the Mackey-Glass type monostable delayed reaction-diffusion equation with a unimodal birth function $g(u)$. This model, designed to describe evolution of single species populations, is considered here in the presence of the weak…
We demonstrate that spatially inhomogeneous defocusing nonlinear landscapes with the nonlinearity coefficient growing toward the periphery as [1+abs(r)]**a support one- and two-dimensional fundamental and higher-order bright solitons, as…
We introduce a new concept for stable spatial soliton formation, mediated by the competition between self-bending induced by a strongly asymmetric nonlocal nonlinearity and spatially localized gain superimposed on a wide pedestal with…
In two preceding articles, we studied the problem of the existence and uniqueness of a solution to some general BSDE on manifolds. In these two articles, we assumed some Lipschitz conditions on the drift $f(b,x,z)$. The purpose of this…
Solutions $u(x)$ to the class of inhomogeneous nonlinear ordinary differential equations taking the form \[u'' + u^2 = \alpha f(x) \] for parameter $\alpha$ are studied. The problem is defined on the $x$ line with decay of both the solution…

Nonlinear dynamics of a bouncing ball moving in gravitational field and colliding with a moving limiter is considered. Displacement of the limiter is a quadratic function of time. Several dynamical modes, such as fixed points, 2 - cycles…
In this paper, we consider the second-order equations of Duffing type. Bounds for the derivative of the restoring force are given that ensure the existence and uniqueness of a periodic solution. Furthermore, the stability of the unique…
We analyze the morphological transition of a one-dimensional system described by a scalar field, where a flat state looses its stability. This scalar field may for example account for the position of a crystal growth front, an order…
We provide explicit conditions for uniform stability, global asymptotic stability and uniform exponential stability for dynamic equations with a single delay and a nonnegative coefficient. Some examples on nonstandard time scales are also…
The issue of symmetry and symmetry breaking is fundamental in all areas of science. Symmetry is often assimilated to order and beauty while symmetry breaking is the source of many interesting phenomena such as phase transitions,…
We investigate existence and regularity properties of one-phase free boundary graphs, in connection with the question of whether there exists a complete non-planar free boundary graph in high dimensions.
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open interval, let $p>1$ and $\gamma>0$, and let $m:\Omega\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ be a function that may change sign in $\Omega $. In this article we study the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions for…
A variation of fundamental constants of physics is proposed in a frame of static universe. It is shown when the velocity of light increases (decreases) the Planck's constant increases (decreases) and mass of bodies decreases (increases).…
A metric space (X,d) is monotone if there is a linear order < on X and a constant c>0 such that d(x,y) < c d(x,z) for all x<y<z in X. Properties of continuous functions with monotone graph (considered as a planar set) are investigated. It…
We study the stability of solution branches for the Lichnerowicz-York equation at moment of time symmetry with constant unscaled energy density. We prove that the weak-field lower branch of solutions is stable whilst the upper branch of…
We show that a variety of monodromy phenomena arising in geometric topology and algebraic geometry are most conveniently described in terms of quandle homomorphisms from a knot quandle associated to the base to a quandle associated to a…
We show that surface solitons in the one-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with truncated complex periodic potential can be stabilized by linear homogeneous losses, which are necessary to balance gain in the near-surface channel…
This paper is an attempt to classify finite-time singularities of PDEs. Most of the problems considered describe free-surface flows, which are easily observed experimentally. We consider problems where the singularity occurs at a point, and…
The purpose of this paper is to study a class of ill-posed differential equations. In some settings, these differential equations exhibit uniqueness but not existence, while in others they exhibit existence but not uniqueness. An example of…
