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.…
Assume that $f(s) = F'(s)$ where $F$ is a double-well potential. Under certain conditions on the Lipschitz constant of $f$ on $[-1,1]$, we prove that arbitrary bounded global solutions of the semilinear equation $\Delta u = f(u)$ on…

This work deals with the Landau equation in a bounded domain with the Maxwell reflection condition on the boundary for any (possibly smoothly position dependent) accommodation coefficient and for the full range of interaction potentials,…
We show that any classical solution of the diffusive Hamilton-Jacobi (DHJ) equation $-\Delta u= |\nabla u|^p$ in a half-space with zero boundary conditions for $1<p\le 2$ is necessarily one-dimensional. This improves the previously known…
The aim of this paper is to prove that, for specific initial data $(u_0,u_1)$ and with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, the solution of the IBVP for a hyperbolic variation of Allen-Cahn equation on the interval $[a,b]$ shares the…
Phase-field models such as the Allen-Cahn equation may give rise to the formation and evolution of geometric shapes, a phenomenon that may be analyzed rigorously in suitable scaling regimes. In its sharp-interface limit, the vectorial…
We study self-similar solutions of a multi-phase Stefan problem, first in the case of one space variable, and then in the radial multidimensional case. In both these cases we prove that a nonlinear algebraic system for determination of the…
We study viscosity solutions to the classical one-phase problem and its thin counterpart. In low dimensions, we show that when the free boundary is the graph of a continuous function, the solution is the half-plane solution. This answers,…
We prove that bounded solutions to an overdetermined fully nonlinear free boundary problem in the plane are one dimensional. Our proof relies on maximum principle techniques and convexity arguments.
We consider a class of semilinear elliptic system of the form $-\Delta u(x,y)+\nabla W(u(x,y))=0,\quad (x,y)\in\R^{2}$ where $W:\R^{2}\to\R$ is a double well non negative symmetric potential. We show, via variational methods, that if the…
We show that if $u$ is a solution to a linear elliptic differential equation of order $2m\geq 2$ in the half-space with $t$-independent coefficients, and if $u$ satisfies certain area integral estimates, then the Dirichlet and Neumann…
In this work we study the level sets of entire solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation and we prove minimality of the zero level set with respect to a certain perimeter functional with density. This provides a direct relationship between phase…
