We establish a local null controllability result for following the nonlinear parabolic equation: $$u_t-\left(b\left(x,\int_0^1u \ \right)u_x \right)_x+f(t,x,u)=h\chi_\omega,\ (t,x)\in (0,T)\times (0,1) $$ where $b(x,r)=\ell(r)a(x)$ is a…
We consider time-independent solutions of hyperbolic equations such as $\d_{tt}u -\Delta u= f(x,u)$ where $f$ is convex in $u$. We prove that linear instability with a positive eigenfunction implies nonlinear instability. In some cases the…
We consider the degenerate equation $$\partial\_t f(t,x) - \partial\_x \left( x^{\alpha} \partial\_x f \right)(t,x) =0,$$ on the unit interval $x\in(0,1)$, in the strongly degenerate case $\alpha \in [1,2)$ with adapted boundary conditions…

The equation arising from Prandtl boundary layer theory is considered. The existence of the entropy solution can be proved by BV estimate method. The interesting problem is that, since a may be degenerate on the boundary, the usual boundary…
We consider the linear degenerate wave equation, on the interval $(0, 1)$ $$ w_{tt} - (x^\alpha w_x)_x = p(t) \mu (x) w, $$ with bilinear control $p$ and Neumann boundary conditions. We study the controllability of this nonlinear control…
We prove that solutions to Cauchy problems related to the $p$-parabolic equations are stable with respect to the nonlinearity exponent $p$. More specifically, solutions with a fixed initial trace converge in an $L^q$-space to a solution of…

We study diffusion processes that are stopped or reflected on the boundary of a domain. The generator of the process is assumed to contain two parts: the main part that degenerates on the boundary in a direction orthogonal to the boundary…
In this paper, we establish the well-posedness of Cauchy problems for weak solutions to second-order degenerate parabolic equations with a non-smooth, time-dependent degenerate elliptic part that includes both bounded and unbounded…
We give a new stability estimate for the problem of determining the time-dependent zero order coefficient in a parabolic equation from a partial parabolic Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. The novelty of our result is that, contrary to the previous…
We prove rapid stabilizability to the ground state solution for a class of abstract parabolic equations of the form \begin{equation*} u'(t)+Au(t)+p(t)Bu(t)=0,\qquad t\geq0 \end{equation*} where the operator $-A$ is a self-adjoint accretive…

In this article we are interested in the boundary stabilization in finite time of one-dimensional linear hyperbolic balance laws with coefficients depending on time and space. We extend the so called "backstepping method" by introducing…
The Dirichlet problem is considered both for degenerate and singular inhomogeneous quasilinear parabolic equations. We prove the existence of a solution $u$ such that $u_t$ belongs to $L_{\infty}$. The $L_{\infty}$ estimate of $u_t$ is…
We consider an initial boundary value problem in a bounded domain $\Omega$ over a time interval $(0, T)$ for a time-fractional wave equation where the order of the fractional time derivative is between $1$ and $2$ and the spatial elliptic…
The goal of this note is to show that, also in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, with $\partial \Omega\in C^2$, any weak solution, $(u(x,t),p(x,t))$, of the Euler equations of ideal incompressible fluid in $\Omega\times (0,T)…
