The Brownian bees model is a branching particle system with spatial selection. It is a system of $N$ particles which move as independent Brownian motions in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and independently branch at rate 1, and, crucially, at each…
We prove local existence for classical solutions of a free boundary problem which arises in one of the biological selection models proposed by Brunet and Derrida, [3]. The problem we consider describes the limit evolution of branching…

We introduce and analyse a two-sided branching-selection particle system which generalises the well-known $N$-particle branching Brownian motion ($N$-BBM) model, which we call the $(N,p)$-BBM, where either the leftmost or rightmost particle…
A free boundary problem for the dynamics of a glasslike binary fluid naturally leads to a singular perturbation problem for a strongly degenerate parabolic partial differential equation in 1D. We present a conjecture for an asymptotic…
We study a system of branching Brownian motions on $\mathbb R$ with annihilation: at each branching time a new particle is created and the leftmost one is deleted. In [7] it has been studied the case of strictly local creations (the new…
We investigate a moving boundary problem for a Brownian particle on the semi-infinite line in which the boundary moves by a distance proportional to the time between successive collisions of the particle and the boundary. Phenomenologically…
We introduce a system of Brownian particles, each absorbed upon hitting an associated moving boundary. The boundaries are determined by the conditional probabilities of the particles being absorbed before some final time horizon, given the…
In this volume a theory for models of transport in the presence of a free boundary is developed. Macroscopic laws of transport are described by PDEs. When the system is open, there are several mechanisms to couple the system with the…
This paper studies the parabolic free boundary problem arising from pricing American-style put options on an asset whose index follows a geometric Brownian motion process. The contribution is to propose a condition for that the early…
In this note we introduce and solve a soft classification version of the famous Bayesian sequential testing problem for a Brownian motion's drift. We establish that the value function is the unique non-trivial solution to a free boundary…
We prove an existence result for a free boundary problem inspired by the modelization of accretive growth. The growth process is formulated through a level-set approach, leading to a boundary-value problem for a Hamilton-Jacobi equation…
We study a linear problem that arises in the study of dynamic boundaries, in particular in free boundary problems in connection with fluid dynamics. The equations are also very natural and of interest on their own.
Considering the example of interacting Brownian particles we present a linear response derivation of the boundary condition for the corresponding hydrodynamic description (the diffusion equation). This requires us to identify a non-analytic…
We consider a model of branching Brownian motion with self repulsion. Self-repulsion is introduced via change of measure that penalises particles spending time in an $\e$-neighbourhood of each other. We derive a simplified version of the…
A free non-relativistic particle moving in two dimensions on a half-plane can be described by self-adjoint Hamiltonians characterized by boundary conditions imposed on the systems. The most general boundary condition is parameterized in…
Recently, we have proposed a new free boundary problem representing the bread baking process in a hot oven. Unknown functions in this problem are the position of the evaporation front, the temperature field and the water content. For…
We study the problem of particles undergoing Brownian motion in an expanding sphere whose surface is an absorbing boundary for the particles. The problem is akin to that of the diffusion of impurities in a grain of polycrystalline material…
In this paper, we study a two-point boundary value problem consisting of the heat equation on the open interval $(0,1)$ with boundary conditions which relate first and second spatial derivatives at the boundary points. Moreover, the unique…
Motivated by the study of branching particle systems with selection, we establish global existence for the solution $(u,\mu)$ of the free boundary problem \[ \begin{cases} \partial_t u =\partial^2_{x} u +u & \text{for $t>0$ and…
