Consider the Allen-Cahn equation $u_t=\varepsilon^2\Delta u-F'(u)$, where $F$ is a double well potential with wells of equal depth, located at $\pm1$. There are a lot of papers devoted to the study of the limiting behavior of the solutions…
We study the evolution of fronts in the Klein-Gordon equation when the nonlinear term is non-homogeneous. Extending previous works on homogeneous nonlinear terms, we describe the derivation of an equation governing the front motion, which…
We consider a mixed stochastic differential equation driven by possibly dependent fractional Brownian motion and Brownian motion. Under mild regularity assumptions on the coefficients, it is proved that the equation has a unique solution.
In this paper, we study the large time behavior and sharp interface limit of the Cauchy problem for compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system with interaction shock waves in the same family. This system is an important mathematical model…

We study interfaces in an Allen-Cahn equation, separating two metastable states. Our focus is on a directional quenching scenario, where a parameter renders the system bistable in a half plane and monostable in its complement, with the…
An interface preserving moving mesh algorithm in two or higher dimensions is presented. It resolves a moving $(d-1)$-dimensional manifold directly within the $d$-dimensional mesh, which means that the interface is represented by a subset of…
A spatially-discrete sine-Gordon system with some novel features is described. There is a topological or Bogomol'nyi lower bound on the energy of a kink, and an explicit static kink which saturates this bound. There is no Peierls potential…
A model for kinetic roughening of one-dimensional interfaces is presented within an intrinsic geometry framework that is free from the standard small-slope and no-overhang approximations. The model is meant to probe the consequences of the…

We study the kinetic Fokker-Planck equation perturbed by a stochastic Vlasov force term. When the noise intensity is not too large, we solve the Cauchy Problem in a class of well-localized (in velocity) functions. We also show that, when…
The ratchet dynamics of a kink (topological soliton) of a dissipative sine-Gordon equation in the presence of ac forces with harmonic mixing (at least bi-harmonic) of zero mean is studied. The dependence of the kink mean velocity on system…
A chain of interacting particles subject also to a nonlinear on-site potential admits stable soliton-like configurations : static kinks. The linear normal-modes around such a kink contain a discrete set of localized, gap-separated modes.…
