Unstable separatrix solutions for the first and second Painlev\'e transcendents are studied both numerically and analytically. For a fixed initial condition, say $y(0)=0$, there is a discrete set of initial slopes $y'(0)=b_n$ that give rise…

We consider the second Painlev\'e equation $$ u"(x)=2u^3(x)+xu(x)-\alpha, $$ where $\alpha $ is a nonzero constant. Using the Deift-Zhou nonlinear steepest descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems, we rigorously prove the asymptotics as…
We give a classification for the small-$\tau$ asymptotic behaviours of solutions to the degenerate third Painlev\'e equation, $u^{''}(\tau) = \frac{(u^{\prime}(\tau))^{2}}{u(\tau)} - \frac{u^{\prime}(\tau)}{\tau} + \frac{1}{\tau}\left(-8…

In this paper, we consider Cauchy problem for the modified Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy on the real line with decaying initial data. Using the Riemann--Hilbert formulation and nonlinear steepest descent method, we derive a uniform asymptotic…
While real-valued solutions of the Korteweg--de Vries (KdV) equation have been studied extensively over the past 50 years, much less attention has been devoted to solution behaviour in the complex plane. Here we consider the analytic…
The study of asymptotic properties of solutions to differential equations has a long and arduous history, with the most significant advances having been made in the development of quantum mechanics. A very powerful method of analysis is…
The asymptotic behavior of a class of stochastic reaction-diffusion-advection equations in the plane is studied. We show that as the divergence-free advection term becomes larger and larger, the solutions of such equations converge to the…
We study asymptotic behavior for determinants of $n\times n$ Toeplitz matrices corresponding to symbols with two Fisher-Hartwig singularities at the distance $2t\ge0$ from each other on the unit circle. We obtain large $n$ asymptotics which…
We investigate the asymptotics of boundary layers in periodic homogenization. The analysis is focused on a Stokes system with periodic coefficients and periodic Dirichlet data posed in the half-space $\{y\in \mathbb{R}^d: y\cdot n -s>0\}$.…
We prove that certain asymptotic moments exist for some random distance expanding dynamical systems and Markov chains in random dynamical environment, and compute them in terms of the derivatives at the $0$ of an appropriate pressure…
In this paper, we mainly discuss asymptotic profiles of solutions to a class of abstract second-order evolution equations of the form $u''+Au+u'=0$ in real Hilbert spaces, where $A$ is a nonnegative selfadjoint operator. The main result is…
Asymptotic expansions are presented for the moments of bound states in one-dimensional anharmonic potentials. The results are derived by using the SAFE method and include only the first non-zero wave-related correction to the familiar…
We develop a framework for solving the stationary, incompressible Stokes equations in an axisymmetric domain. By means of Fourier expansion with respect to the angular variable, the three-dimensional Stokes problem is reduced to an…
The self-consistent expansion (SCE) is a powerful technique for obtaining perturbative solutions to problems in statistical physics but it suffers from a subtle problem - too much freedom! The SCE can be used to generate an enormous number…
