Standard diffuse approximations of the Willmore flow often lead to intersecting phase boundaries that in many cases do not correspond to the intended sharp interface evolution. Here we introduce a new two-variable diffuse approximation that…
Liquid drops slide more slowly over soft, deformable substrates than over rigid solids. This phenomenon can be attributed to the viscoelastic dissipation induced by the moving wetting ridge, which inhibits a rapid motion, and is called…

Self-interacting diffusions are solutions to SDEs with a drift term depending on the process and its normalized occupation measure $\mu_t$ (via an interaction potential and a confinement potential). We establish a relation between the…
