We consider a multi-component version of the conserved Allen-Cahn equation proposed by J. Rubinstein and P. Sternberg in 1992 as an alternative model for phase separation. In our case, the free energy is characterized by a mixing entropy…
Spectral singularities and the coherent perfect absorption are two interrelated concepts that have originally been introduced and studied for linear waves interacting with complex potentials. In the meantime, the distinctive asymptotic…
