We show that a grating amplitude stationary in space but oscillating in time can be accurately modelled as a set of independent gratings travelling in opposite directions, interacting almost exclusively with waves travelling in the same…

We investigate the propagation of infinitesimal harmonic mechanical waves emitted from a boundary with variable velocity and arriving at a stationary observer. In the classical Doppler effect, $X_\mathrm{s}(t) = vt$ is the location of the…

We prove the asymptotic stability of the high speed solitary waves to the Benjamin equation. This is done by establishing a Liouville property for the nonlinear evolution of the Benjamin equation around these solitary waves. To do this,…

We show the uniqueness of particle paths of a velocity field, which solves the compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations in the half-space $\mathbb{R}_+^3$ with the Navier boundary condition. In particular, by means of energy…

We consider a reaction-diffusion system of densities of two types of particles, introduced by Edouard Hannezo et al. in the context of branching morphogenesis. It is a simple model for a growth process: active, branching particles form the…

It is common practice to truncate the finite-volume formula for $K\to\pi\pi$, and other one-to-two transitions, to only include the lowest partial wave, as in the original derivation by Lellouch and L\"uscher. However, as the precision of…

This paper is concerned with transition fronts for reaction-diffusion equations of the Fisher-KPP type. Basic examples of transition fronts connecting the unstable steady state to the stable one are the standard traveling fronts, but the…
