We consider the equation $\e^{2}\Delta u=(u-a(x))(u^2-1)$ in $\Omega$, $\frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} =0$ on $\partial \Omega$, where $\Omega$ is a smooth and bounded domain in $\R^n$, $\nu$ the outer unit normal to $\pa\Omega$, and $a$ a…

We investigate the Allen-Cahn system \begin{equation*} \Delta u-W_u(u)=0,\quad u:\mathbb{R}^2\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^2, \end{equation*} where $W\in C^2(\mathbb{R}^2,[0,+\infty))$ is a potential with three global minima. We establish the…

The Allen-Cahn action functional is related to the probability of rare events in the stochastically perturbed Allen-Cahn equation. Formal calculations suggest a reduced action functional in the sharp interface limit. We prove in two and…

We consider a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^\alpha$, $0<\alpha <1,$ and we prove that ``flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\gamma}$. We thus extend the known result for the case $\alpha=1/2.$

This paper deals with the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for the fractional Cahn-Hilliard equation. The main results consist of global (in time) existence of weak solutions, characterization of parabolic smoothing effects (implying under proper…

We introduce a new measure of coarseness for characterizing phase separation processes such as those described by Cahn--Hilliard equations. An advantage of our measure is that it remains consistent throughout the evolution, including for…
