We describe acceleration of the front propagation for solutions to a class of monostable nonlinear equations with a nonlocal diffusion in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq1$. We show that the acceleration takes place if either the diffusion kernel or…

We address the question: Why may reaction-diffusion equations with hysteretic nonlinearities become ill-posed and how to amend this? To do so, we discretize the spatial variable and obtain a lattice dynamical system with a hysteretic…

We simulate a growth model with restricted surface relaxation process in d=1 and d=2, where d is the dimensionality of a flat substrate. In this model, each particle can relax on the surface to a local minimum, as the Edwards-Wilkinson…

We study an anisotropic, possibly non-homogeneous version of the evolution $p$-Laplacian equation when fast diffusion holds in all directions. We develop the basic theory and prove symmetrization results from which we derive $L^1$ to…

We obtain a fast diffusion equation (FDE) as scaling limit of a sequence of zero-range process with symmetric unit rate. Fast diffusion effect comes from the fact that the diffusion coefficient goes to infinity as the density goes to zero.…
