We consider solutions in frequency bands of dispersive equations on the line defined by Fourier multipliers, these solutions being considered as wave packets. In this paper, a refinement of an existing method permitting to expand…
We consider the propagation of a single particle in a random chain, assisted by the coupling to dispersive bosons. Time evolution treated with rate equations for hopping between localized states reveals a qualitative difference between…
The inverse problem of backward diffusion is known to be ill-posed and highly unstable. Backward diffusion processes appear naturally in image enhancement and deblurring applications. It is therefore greatly desirable to establish a…
A multi-phase-field model for the description of the discontinuous precipitation reaction is formulated which takes into account surface diffusion along grain boundaries and interfaces as well as volume diffusion. Simulations reveal that…
We study forward and inverse problems for a semilinear radiative transport model where the absorption coefficient depends on the angular average of the transport solution. Our first result is the well-posedness theory for the transport…
A new class of patterns for multiplex networks is studied, which consists in a collection of different homogeneous states each referred to a distinct layer. The associated stability diagram exhibits a tricritical point, as a function of the…
We consider a family of models having an arbitrary positive amount of mass on each site and randomly exchanging an arbitrary amount of mass with nearest neighbor sites. We restrict to the case of diffusive models. We identify a class of…
We study diffusion-driven pattern-formation in networks of networks, a class of multilayer systems, where different layers have the same topology, but different internal dynamics. Agents are assumed to disperse within a layer by undergoing…
In this article, we give a unified theory for constructing boundary layer expansions for dis-cretized transport equations with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. We exhibit a natural assumption on the discretization under which the…
Porous and heterogeneous materials are found in many applications from composites, membranes, chemical reactors, and other engineered materials to biological matter and natural subsurface structures. In this work we propose an integrated…
We exactly calculate two-point spatial correlation functions in steady state in a broad class of conserved-mass transport processes, which are governed by chipping, diffusion and coalescence of masses. We find that the spatial correlations…
Diffusion behaviors of heterogeneous materials are of paramount importance in many engineering problems. Numerical models that take into account the internal structure of such materials are robust but computationally very expensive. This…
We study stable allocations in an exchange economy with indivisible goods. The problem is well-known to be challenging, and rich enough to encode fundamentally unstable economies, such as the roommate problem. Our approach stems from…
In rapidly sprawling urban areas and booming intercity express rail networks, efficiently designed feeder bus systems are more essential than ever to transport passengers to and from trunk-line rail terminals. When the feeder service region…
We consider a monopolistic seller in a market that may be segmented. The surplus of each consumer in a segment depends on the price that the seller optimally charges, which depends on the set of consumers in the segment. We study which…
We describe the resulting spatiotemporal dynamics when a homogeneous equilibrium loses stability in a spatially extended system. More precisely, we consider reaction-diffusion systems, assuming only that the reaction kinetics undergo a…
In this paper, we study the large time behaviour of solutions of multistable reaction-diffusion equations in $\mathbb{R}^N$, with a spatially periodic heterogeneity. By multistable, we mean that the problem admits a finite -- but…
From the smallest biological systems to the largest cosmological structures, spatial domains undergo expansion and contraction. Within these growing domains, diffusive transport is a common phenomenon. Mathematical models have been widely…
We analyze the pattern forming ability and pattern stability for a one-dimensional non-linear transport-diffusion equation on the circle. We show that the trivial steady state is stable when diffusion is sufficiently strong. In the limit…
Granular mixtures rapidly segregate radially by size when tumbled in a partially filled horizontal drum. The smaller component moves toward the axis of rotation and forms a buried core, which then splits into axial bands. Models have…
