Coupled wave equations are popular tool for investigating longitudinal dynamical effects in semiconductor lasers, for example, sensitivity to delayed optical feedback. We study a model that consists of a hyperbolic linear system of partial…
We discuss the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two partly miscible viscous Newtonian fluids of different densities, when a certain parameter \epsilon>0 related to the interface thickness tends to…

The purpose of this paper is to derive anisotropic mean curvature flow as the limit of the anisotropic Allen-Cahn equation. We rely on distributional solution concepts for both the diffuse and sharp interface models, and prove convergence…
Motivated by its relation to models of flame propagation, we study globally Lipschitz solutions of $\Delta u=f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, where $f$ is smooth, non-negative, with support in the interval $[0,1]$. In such setting, any "blow-down"…
We consider the semilinear equation $$ \epsilon^{2s} (-\Delta)^s u + V(x)u - u^p = 0, \quad u>0, \quad u\in H^{2s}(\R^N) $$ where $0<s<1,\ 1<p<\frac{N+2s}{N-2s}$, $ V(x)$ is a sufficiently smooth potential with $\inf_\R V(x)> 0$, and…

We consider the wave equation $(\partial_t^2-\Delta)u=0$ on a planar triangular domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We use a commutator and integration by parts argument similar to that in…
The interface problem for the linear Schr\"odinger equation in one-dimensional piecewise homogeneous domains is examined by providing an explicit solution in each domain. The location of the interfaces is known and the continuity of the…
We revisit the interface fluctuation problem for the $1$D Allen-Cahn equation perturbed by a small space-time white noise. We show that if the initial data is a standing wave solution to the deterministic equation, then under proper long…
This paper is concerned with the sharp interface limit for the Allen-Cahn equation with a nonlinear Robin boundary condition in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. We assume that a diffuse interface already has developed…
