An efficient method for solving large nonlinear problems combines Newton solvers and Domain Decomposition Methods (DDM). In the DDM framework, the boundary conditions can be chosen to be primal, dual or mixed. The mixed approach presents…
In this paper, we study the homogenization of the third boundary value problem for semilinear parabolic PDEs with rapidly oscillating periodic coefficients in the weak sense. Our method is entirely probabilistic, and builds upon the work of…
This paper concerns the homogenization problem of a parabolic equation with large, time-dependent, random potentials in high dimensions $d\geq 3$. Depending on the competition between temporal and spatial mixing of the randomness, the…
We consider parabolic equations with mixed boundary conditions and domain inhomogeneities supported on a lower dimensional hypersurface, enforcing a jump in the conormal derivative. Only minimal regularity assumptions on the domain and the…
We analyze the propagation of light in the context of nonlinear electrodynamics, as it occurs in modified QED vacua. We show that the corresponding characteristic equation can be described in terms of a modification of the effective…
We discuss the prospects for a consistent, nonlinear, partially massless (PM), gauge symmetry of bimetric gravity (BMG). Just as for single metric massive gravity, we show that consistency of BMG relies on it having a PM extension; we then…
We introduce a variant of the asymmetric random average process with continuous state variables where the maximal transport is restricted by a cutoff. For periodic boundary conditions, we show the existence of a phase transition between a…

We explore the mechanism responsible for the ergodicity breaking in systems with long-range forces. In thermodynamic limit such systems do not evolve to the Boltzmann-Gibbs equilibrium, but become trapped in an out-of-equilibrium…
We prove that for an arbitrary indexing group, every ergodic infinitely divisible stationary process that is separable in probability is weakly mixing. This shows that, as in the well-known case of Gaussian stationary processes, ergodicity…
We prove that a rank one transformation satisfying a condition called restricted growth is a mixing transformation if and only if the spacer sequence for the transformation is uniformly ergodic. Uniform ergodicity is a generalization of the…
The purpose of this article is to study quasi linear parabolic partial differential equations of second order, posed on a bounded network, satisfying a nonlinear and non dynamical Neumann boundary condition at the vertices. We prove the…
We study a new class of ergodic backward stochastic differential equations (EBSDEs for short) which is linked with semi-linear Neumann type boundary value problems related to ergodic phenomenas. The particularity of these problems is that…
The motion-induced drag force acting on a particle moving parallel to an arrangement of $N$ objects is analyzed. Particular focus is placed on the nonequilibrium statistics of the interaction and on the interplay between the system's…
Interfaces advancing through random media represent a number of different problems in physics, biology and other disciplines. Here, we study the pinning/depinning transition of the prototypical non-equilibrium interfacial model, i.e. the…
We establish well-posedness and maximal regularity estimates for linear parabolic SPDE in divergence form involving random coefficients that are merely bounded and measurable in the time, space, and probability variables. To reach this…
In this survey, we address mixing from the point of view of partial differential equations, motivated by applications that arise in fluid dynamics. We give an account of optimal mixing, loss of regularity for transport equations, enhanced…
We consider an elliptic PDE in two variables. As one parameter approaches zero, this PDE collapses to a parabolic one, that is forward parabolic in a part of the domain and backward parabolic in the remainder. Such problems arise naturally…
A nonlinear divergence parabolic equation with dynamic boundary conditions of Wentzell type is studied. The existence and uniqueness of a strong solution is obtained as the limit of a finite difference scheme, in the time dependent case and…
We consider a non-linear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) on $\mathbb R^d$ with a distributional coefficient in the non-linear term. The distribution is an element of a Besov space with negative regularity and the non-linearity…
