We discuss a reaction-diffusion model in one dimension subjected to an external driving force. Each lattice site may be occupied by at most one particle. The particles hop with asymmetric rates (the sum of which is one) to the right or left…

We give an exact solution of the $5D$ Einstein equations which in 4D can be interpreted as a spherically symmetric dissipative distribution of matter, with heat flux, whose effective density and pressure are nonstatic, nonuniform, and…
Ballistic annihilation is an interacting system in which particles placed throughout the real line move at preassigned velocities and annihilate upon colliding. The longstanding conjecture that in the symmetric three-velocity setting there…

We consider a one-dimensional system with particles having either positive or negative velocity, which annihilate on contact. To the ballistic motion of the particle, a diffusion is superimposed. The annihilation may represent a reaction in…
On a smooth bounded Euclidean domain, Sobolev-subcritical fast diffusion with vanishing boundary trace is known to lead to finite-time extinction, with a vanishing profile selected by the initial datum. In rescaled variables, we quantify…
Using event-driven molecular dynamics we study one- and two-dimensional ballistic annihilation. We estimate exponents $\xi$ and $\gamma$ that describe the long-time decay of the number of particles ($n(t)\sim t^{-\xi}$) and of their typical…
We classify all spherically symmetric dust solutions of Einstein's equations which are self-similar in the sense that all dimensionless variables depend only upon $z\equiv r/t$. We show that the equations can be reduced to a special case of…
This manuscript investigates the following aspects of the one dimensional dissipative Boltzmann equation associated to variable hard-spheres kernel: (1) we show the optimal cooling rate of the model by a careful study of the system…
The question is studied whether weak solutions of linear partial integrodifferential equations approach a constant spatial profile after rescaling, as time goes to infinity. The possible limits and corresponding scaling functions are…
The kinetics of single-species annihilation, $A+A\to 0$, is investigated in which each particle has a fixed velocity which may be either $\pm v$ with equal probability, and a finite diffusivity. In one dimension, the interplay between…
