We study the long-time dynamics of a bulk-surface convective Cahn--Hilliard system describing phase separation processes with bulk-surface interaction. The presence of convection terms leads to a non-autonomous dynamical system and prevents…

We study extremal shocks of $1$-d hyperbolic systems of conservation laws which fail to be genuinely nonlinear. More specifically, we consider either $1$- or $n$-shocks in characteristic fields which are either concave-convex or…

It is well know that for globally contractive autonomous systems, there exists a unique equilibrium and the distance to the equilibrium evaluated along any trajectory decreases exponentially with time. We show that, additionally, the…
