Given an energy-dissipating port-Hamiltonian system, we characterise the exponential decay of the energy via the model ingredients under mild conditions on the Hamiltonian density $\mathcal{H}$. In passing, we obtain generalisations for…
We study the extinction behavior of solutions to the fast diffusion equation $u_t = \Delta u^m$ on $\R^N\times (0,T)$, in the range of exponents $m \in (0, \frac{N-2}{N})$, $N > 2$. We show that if the initial data $u_0$ is trapped in…
This paper considers the Dirichlet problem $$ -\mathrm{div}(a\nabla u_a)=f \quad \hbox{on}\,\,\ D, \qquad u_a=0\quad \hbox{on}\,\,\partial D, $$ for a Lipschitz domain $D\subset \mathbb R^d$, where $a$ is a scalar diffusion function. For a…

The steady-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional reaction-diffusion model 2A -> 3A, 2A -> 0 is studied through the non-hermitian density matrix renormalization group. In the absence of single-particle diffusion the model reduces to the…
We study a one-parameter family of Eikonal Hamilton-Jacobi equations on an embedded network, and prove that there exists a unique critical value for which the corresponding equation admits global solutions, in a suitable viscosity sense.…
In this paper, the finite time extinction of solutions to the fast diffusion system $u_t=\mathrm{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)+v^m$, $v_t=\mathrm{div}(|\nabla v|^{q-2}\nabla v)+u^n$ is investigated, where $1<p,q<2$, $m,n>0$ and…
We show that any classical solution of the diffusive Hamilton-Jacobi (DHJ) equation $-\Delta u= |\nabla u|^p$ in a half-space with zero boundary conditions for $1<p\le 2$ is necessarily one-dimensional. This improves the previously known…
We study the asymptotic behaviour near extinction of positive solutions of the Cauchy problem for the fast diffusion equation with a critical exponent. After a suitable rescaling which yields a non--linear Fokker--Planck equation, we find a…
This paper discusses finite time extinction for a perturbed fast diffusion equation with dynamic boundary conditions. The fast diffusion equation has the characteristic property of decay, such as the solution decays to zero in a finite…
The global dynamics of a nonautonomous Carath\'eodory scalar ordinary differential equation $x'=f(t,x)$, given by a function $f$ which is concave in $x$, is determined by the existence or absence of an attractor-repeller pair of hyperbolic…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of positive solutions of the Cauchy problem for the fast diffusion equation near the extinction time. We find a continuum of rates of convergence to a self-similar profile. These rates depend explicitly on…
In this paper, we study an integro-differential equation which describes the evolutionary dynamics of a population structured by a phenotypic trait. This population undergoes asexual reproduction, competition, selection, and mutation. We…

Subdiffusive motion takes place at a much slower timescale than diffusive motion. As a preliminary step to studying reaction-subdiffusion pulled fronts, we consider here the hyperbolic limit $(t,x) \to (t/\varepsilon, x/\varepsilon)$ of an…
A monomer-dimer reaction lattice model with lateral repulsion among the same species is studied using a mean-field analysis and Monte Carlo simulations. For weak repulsions, the model exhibits a first-order irreversible phase transition…
This work is concerned with the gradient flow of absolutely $p$-homogeneous convex functionals on a Hilbert space, which we show to exhibit finite ($p<2$) or infinite extinction time ($p \geq 2$). We give upper bounds for the finite…
