In this paper we prove that the well-known quasi-steady state approximations, commonly used in enzyme kinetics, which can be interpreted as the reduced system of a differential system depending on a perturbative parameter, according to…
Oscillators have two main limitations: their synchronization properties are limited (i.e they have a finite synchronization region) and they have no memory of past interactions (i.e. they return to their intrinsic frequency whenever the…
The invariance for the equation of fast diffusion in the 2D coordinate space has been proved, and its reduction to the 1D (with respect to the spatial variable) analog is demonstrated. On the basis of these results, new exact…
This paper is concerned with the existence of positive solutions for a fractional population model with the homogeneous Dirichlet condition on the exterior of a bounded domain. The approach is based on the sub-super solutions method. Our…

We obtain a fast diffusion equation (FDE) as scaling limit of a sequence of zero-range process with symmetric unit rate. Fast diffusion effect comes from the fact that the diffusion coefficient goes to infinity as the density goes to zero.…
We study the validity of an averaging principle for a slow-fast system of stochastic reaction diffusion equations. We assume here that the coefficients of the fast equation depend on time, so that the classical formulation of the averaging…
M. Kruskal showed that each nearly-periodic dynamical system admits a formal $U(1)$ symmetry, generated by the so-called roto-rate. We prove that such systems also admit nearly-invariant manifolds of each order, near which rapid…
We consider coupled slow-fast stochastic processes, where the averaged slow motion is given by a two-dimensional Hamiltonian system with multiple critical points. On a proper time scale, the evolution of the first integral converges to a…
Classical results in the theory of monotone semiflows give sufficient conditions for the generic solution to converge toward an equilibrium or towards the set of equilibria (quasiconvergence). In this paper, we provide new formulations of…
Computational feasibility of turbulent reacting flows hinges on the reduction of large chemical kinetics systems to smaller more manageable reaction sets. Recently, several sophisticated reduction techniques have been developed but they…
The adoption of detailed mechanisms for chemical kinetics often poses two types of severe challenges: First, the number of degrees of freedom is large; and second, the dynamics is characterized by widely disparate time scales. As a result,…
The large-time behavior of solutions to the thin film equation with linear mobility in the complete wetting regime on $\mathbb{R}^N$ is examined: We investigate the higher order asymptotics of solutions converging towards self-similar…
