Consider the Allen-Cahn equation on the $d$-dimensional torus, $d=2,3$, in the sharp interface limit. As it is well known, the limiting dynamics is described by the motion by mean curvature of the interface between the two stable phases.…
Let $\Sigma$ be a surface of constant mean curvature in ${\mathbb R}^3$ with multiple Delaunay ends. Assuming that $\Sigma$ is non degenerate in this paper we construct new solutions to the Cahn-Hilliard equation $\varepsilon\Delta…
A common paradigm in phase-field models with singular potentials is that global-in-time weak solutions converge to a single equilibrium only after undergoing asymptotic regularization. However, in arXiv:2510.17296 we introduced a novel…
The objective of our paper is to investigate fractional elliptic equations of the form $(-\Delta)^s u=\frac{\lambda }{(a-u)^2}$ within a bounded domain $\Omega$, subject to zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here, $s\in(0,1)$, $\lambda>0$,…
We study symmetric vector minimizers of the Allen-Cahn energy and establish various results concerning their structure and their asymptotic behavior.
The aim of this paper is to report on recent development on the conformal fractional Laplacian, both from the analytic and geometric points of view, but especially towards the PDE community.
The fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect arises from strong electron correlations in a quantising magnetic field, and features exotic emergent phenomena such as electron fractionalisation. Using the diagrammatic Monte Carlo approach with…
In this paper, the space-fractional Schr\"{o}dinger equations with singular potentials are studied. Delta-like or even higher-order singularities are allowed. By using the regularising techniques, we introduce a family of 'weakened'…
