We consider a slow-fast differential system (SF) in dimension two which appears in the study of some linear model (LM) with periodic coefficients in population dynamics. We show existence of "canard solutions" of (SF) along semi-stable slow…
In this manuscript, we show how flow equation methods can be used to study localisation in disordered quantum systems, and particularly how to use this approach to obtain the non-equilibrium dynamical evolution of observables. We review the…

We consider a hyperbolic system of three conservation laws in one space variable. The system is a model for fluid flow allowing phase transitions; in this case the state variables are the specific volume, the velocity and the mass density…

We explore a general framework how to treat coupled-channel systems in the presence of overlapping left and right-hand cuts as well as anomalous thresholds. Such systems are studied in terms of a generalized potential, where we exploit the…

A general Hamiltonian wave system with quartic resonances is considered, in the standard kinetic limit of a continuum of weakly interacting dispersive waves with random phases. The evolution equation for the multimode characteristic…
This paper considers quadratic and super-quadratic reaction-diffusion systems for reversible chemistry, for which all species satisfy uniform-in-time $L^1$ a-priori estimates, for instance, as a consequence of suitable mass conservation…

In this paper we discuss some features of the BCRE model. We show that this model can be understood as a mapping from a two-dimensional to a one-dimensional problem, if some conditions are satisfied. We propose some modifications that (a)…
