We present the microscopic equation of growing interface with quenched noise for the Tang and Leschhorn model [L. H. Tang and H. Leschhorn, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 45}, R8309 (1992)]. The evolution equation for the height, the mean height, and…

We study an initial-boundary value problem (IBVP) for a coupled Cahn-Hilliard-Hele-Shaw system that models tumor growth. For large initial data with finite energy, we prove global (local resp.) existence, uniqueness, higher order spatial…
We introduce a new sharp interface model for the flow of two immiscible, viscous, incompressible fluids. In contrast to classical models for two-phase flows we prescribe an evolution law for the interfaces that takes diffusional effects…

Frequently, the design of physicochemical processes requires screening of large numbers of alternative designs with complex geometries. These geometries may result in conformal meshes which introduce stability issues, significant…
A solid-liquid-gas moving contact line is considered through a diffuse-interface model with the classical boundary condition of no-slip at the solid surface. Examination of the asymptotic behaviour as the contact line is approached shows…
Models of tumor growth, now commonly used, present several levels of complexity, both in terms of the biomedical ingredients and the mathematical description. The simplest ones contain competition for space using purely fluid mechanical…
The dynamics of a one dimensional growth model involving attachment and detachment of particles is studied in the presence of a localized growth inhomogeneity along with anchored boundary conditions. At large times, the latter enforce an…
An explicit solution for a general two-type birth-death branching process with one way mutation is presented. This continuous time process mimics the evolution of resistance to treatment, or the onset of an extra driver mutation during…
We consider a particular phase field system which physical context is that of tumor growth dynamics. The model we deal with consists of a Cahn-Hilliard type equation governing the evolution of the phase variable which takes into account the…

Random growth models are fundamental objects in modern probability theory, have given rise to new mathematics, and have numerous applications, including tumor growth and fluid flow in porous media. In this article, we introduce some of the…
A semilinear singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions is considered in a convex unbounded sector. The singular perturbation parameter is arbitrarily small, and the "reduced equation" may have…

Bifurcations of self-similar solutions for reversing interfaces are studied in the slow diffusion equation with strong absorption. The self-similar solutions bifurcate from the time-independent solutions for standing interfaces. We show…
