In this short note, we prove that on the three-sphere with any bumpy metric there exist at least four solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation with spherical interface and index at most two. The proof combines several recent results from the…

This article establishes the boundary H\"{o}lder continuity of stable solutions to semilinear elliptic problems in the optimal range of dimensions $n \leq 9$, for $C^{1,1}$ domains. We consider equations $- L u = f(u)$ in a bounded…

We are concerned with the saddle solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation constructed by Cabr\'{e} and Terra \cite{C,C2} in $\mathbb{R}^{2m}% =\mathbb{R}^{m}\times\mathbb{R}^{m}$. These solutions vanish precisely on the Simons cone. The…

We study entire minimizers of the Allen-Cahn systems. The specific feature of our systems are potentials having a finite number of global minima, with sub-quadratic behaviour locally near their minima. The corresponding formal…

For the parabolic obstacle-problem-like equation $$\Delta u - \partial_t u = \lambda_+ \chi_{\{u>0\}} - \lambda_- \chi_{\{u<0\}} ,$$ where $\lambda_+$ and $\lambda_-$ are positive Lipschitz functions, we prove in arbitrary finite dimension…

This paper studies a Boltzmann-Nordheim equation in a slab with two-dimensional velocity space and pseudo-Maxwellian forces. Strong solutions are obtained for the Cauchy problem with large initial data in an $ L^1 \cap L^{\infty} $ setting.…

We prove a differential Harnack inequality for the solution of the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation $ \frac{\partial f}{\partial t}=\triangle f-(f^3-f)$ on a closed n-dimensional manifold. As a corollary we find a classical Harnack inequality.…
