The Cahn-Hilliard and Ginzburg-Landau (Allen-Cahn) equations are derived from the second law. The intuitive approach by separation of full divergences is supported by a more rigorous method, based on Liu procedure and a constitutive entropy…

We consider maps between Riemannian manifolds in which the map is a stationary point of the nonlinear Hodge energy. The variational equations of this functional form a quasilinear, nondiagonal, nonuniformly elliptic system which models…
We prove the local minimality of halfspaces in Carnot groups for a class of nonlocal functionals usually addressed as nonlocal perimeters. Moreover, in a class of Carnot groups in which the De Giorgi's rectifiability Theorem holds, we…
In the present work, we address a class of Cahn-Hilliard equations characterized by a nonlinear diffusive dynamics and possibly containing an additional sixth order term. This model describes the separation properties of oil-water mixtures,…
The aim of this article is to develop the regularity theory for parabolic equations driven by nonlocal operators associated with nonsymmetric forms. H\"older regularity and weak Harnack inequalities are proved using extensions of recently…
