We study the pointwise (in the space and time variables) behavior of the linearized Landau equation for hard and moderately soft potentials. The solution has very clear description in the $(x,t)-$variables, including large time behavior and…

We develop a formalism for the scattering of a particle on the $q$-deformed Euclidean space. We write down $q$-versions of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation. Their iterative solutions for a weak scattering potential lead us to $q$-versions of…
We propose a theory for the multi-ring pattern of the deposits that are formed when droplets of suspension are dried on a substrate. Assuming a standard model for the stick-slip motion of the contact line, we show that as droplets…

Recent studies of cooled oil emulsion droplets uncovered transformations into a host of flattened shapes with straight edges and sharp corners, driven by a partial phase transition of the bulk liquid phase. Here, we explore theoretically…
In this article we investigate the solvability of infinite-dimensional differential algebraic equations. Such equations often arise as partial differential-algebraic equations (PDAEs). A decomposition of the state-space that leads to an…

We discuss computational and qualitative aspects of the fractional Plateau and the prescribed fractional mean curvature problems on bounded domains subject to exterior data being a subgraph. We recast these problems in terms of energy…
We explain some pde2path setups for pattern formation in 1D, 2D and 3D. A focus is on new pde2path functions for branch switching at steady bifurcation points of higher multiplicity, typically due to discrete symmetries, but we also review…
The finite element solution of two-dimensional anisotropic diffusion problems is considered. A Delaunay-type mesh condition is developed for linear finite element approximations to satisfy a discrete maximum principle. The condition is…
A mean field spherical model with random couplings between pairs, quartets, and possibly higher multiplets of spins is considered. It has the same critical behavior as the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. It thus exhibits replica symmetry…
An exact solution of a Landau model of an order-disorder transition with activated critical dynamics is presented. The model describes a funnel-shaped topography of the order parameter space in which the number of energy lowering…
