We study the long time behavior of bounded, integrable solutions to a nonlocal diffusion equation, $\partial _t u=J*u-u$, where $J$ is a smooth, radially symmetric kernel with support $B_d(0)\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. The problem is set in an…

Fluid mixing usually involves the interplay between advection and diffusion, which together cause any initial distribution of passive scalar to homogenize and ultimately reach a uniform state. However, this scenario only holds when the…

The paper considers the wave equation, with constant or variable coefficients in $\R^n$, with odd $n\geq 3$. We study the asymptotics of the distribution $\mu_t$ of the random solution at time $t\in\R$ as $t\to\infty$. It is assumed that…

We propose to use the {\L}ojasiewicz inequality as a general tool for analyzing the convergence rate of gradient descent on a Hilbert manifold, without resorting to the continuous gradient flow. Using this tool, we show that a Sobolev…

If $h$ is a nondecreasing real valued function and $0\leq q\leq 2$, we analyse the boundary behaviour of the gradient of any solution $u$ of $-\Delta u+h(u)+\abs {\nabla u}^q=f$ in a smooth N-dimensional domain $\Omega$ with the condition…
