This work deals with the homogenization of an initial- and boundary-value problem for the doubly-nonlinear system $$ D_t w -\nabla\cdot \vec z = \nabla\cdot \vec h(x,t,x/\varepsilon), \qquad w\in \alpha(u,x/\varepsilon), \qquad \vec z\in…
In the following work we apply the boundary element method to two-phase flows in shallow microchannels, where one phase is dispersed and does not wet the channel walls. These kinds of flows are often encountered in microfluidic…
The paper concerns boundary value problems for general nonautonomous first order quasilinear hyperbolic systems in a strip. We construct small global classical solutions, assuming that the right hand sides are small. In the case that all…
We prove new results on the existence, non-existence, localization and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions for perturbed Hammerstein integral equations. Our approach is topological and relies on the classical fixed point index. Some of the…
We study a Dirichlet spectral problem for a second-order elliptic operator with locally periodic coefficients in a thin domain. The boundary of the domain is assumed to be locally periodic. When the thickness of the domain $\varepsilon$…

Invariance under time translation (or stationarity) is probably one of the most important assumptions made when investigating electromagnetic phenomena. Breaking this assumption is expected to open up novel possibilities and result in…
We consider the nonlinear string equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions $u_{xx}-u_{tt}=\phi(u)$, with $\phi(u)=\Phi u^{3} + O(u^{5})$ odd and analytic, $\Phi\neq0$, and we construct small amplitude periodic solutions with frequency…
We consider the global bifurcation problem for spatially periodic traveling waves for two-dimensional gravity-capillary vortex sheets. The two fluids have arbitrary constant, non-negative densities (not both zero), the gravity parameter can…
The Rosensweig instability has a special character among the frequently discussed instabilities. One distinct property is the necessary presence of a deformable surface, and another very important fact is, that the driving force acts purely…
In this article we apply local bifurcation theory to prove the existence of small-amplitude steady periodic water waves, which propagate over a flat bed with a specified fixed mean-depth, and where the underlying flow has a discontinuous…
We provide the first proof of local well-posedness for the two-dimensional gravity water wave equations with spatially quasi-periodic initial conditions. We represent the solution using holomorphic coordinates, which are equivalent to a…
We investigate existence and nonexistence of stationary stable nonconstant solutions, i.e. patterns, of semilinear parabolic problems in bounded domains of Riemannian manifolds satisfying Robin boundary conditions. These problems arise in…
We study a superlinear elliptic boundary value problem involving the $p$-laplacian operator, with changing sign weights. The problem has positive solutions bifurcating from the trivial solution set at the two principal eigenvalues of the…
In the present paper, we consider a non self adjoint hyperbolic operator with a vector field and an electric potential that depend not only on the space variable but also on the time variable. More precisely, we attempt to stably and…
In this paper, it is proved that the KdV-Burgers equation with a monostable source term of Fisher-KPP type has small-amplitude periodic traveling wave solutions with finite fundamental period. These solutions emerge from a subcritical local…
We investigate the Neumann problem for the critical semilinear elliptic equation in cones. The standard bubble provides a family of radial solutions, which are known to be the only positive solutions in convex cones. For nonconvex cones,…
