We consider the nonlinear Dirac equation with Soler-type nonlinearity concentrated at one point and present a detailed study of the spectrum of linearization at solitary waves. We then consider two different perturbations of the…
Understanding how time delays impact the stability of a delay differential equation is important for modeling many natural and technological systems that experience time delays. Here we introduce a new stability criterion for…
We prove that a dense subset of limit periodic operators have spectra which are homogeneous Cantor sets in the sense of Carleson. Moreover, by using work of Egorova, our examples have purely absolutely continuous spectrum. The construction…
We examine the spectral stability and instability of periodic traveling waves for regularized long-wave models. Examples include the regularized Boussinesq, Benney--Luke, and Benjamin--Bona--Mahony equations. Of particular interest is a…
Many parts of the Earth system are thought to have multiple stable equilibrium states, with the potential for rapid and sometimes catastrophic shifts between them. The most common frameworks for analyzing stability changes, however, require…
Let $a$ and $b$ be elements of a semisimple, complex and unital Banach algebra $A$. Using subharmonic methods, we show that if the spectral containment $\sigma(ax)\subseteq\sigma(bx)$ holds for all $x\in A$, then $ax$ belongs to the…
We consider the symmetry-breaking steady state bifurcation of a spatially-uniform equilibrium solution of E(2)-equivariant PDEs. We restrict the space of solutions to those that are doubly-periodic with respect to a square or hexagonal…
Eigenvalue analysis is a well-established tool for stability analysis of dynamical systems. However, there are situations where eigenvalues miss some important features of physical models. For example, in models of incompressible fluid…
For spiking neural networks we consider the stability problem of global synchrony, arguably the simplest non-trivial collective dynamics in such networks. We find that even this simplest dynamical problem -- local stability of synchrony --…
For $n\geq 2$, we determine the Dirichlet spectrum in $\Rn$ with respect to a linear form and the maximum norm as the entire interval $[0,1]$. This natural result improves on recent work of Beresnevich, Guan, Marnat, Ram\'irez and Velani,…

We perform a linear stability analysis of three-layer radial porous media and Hele-Shaw flows with variable viscosity in the middle layer. A nonlinear change of variables results in an eigenvalue problem that has time-dependent coefficients…
