We obtain for the two-phase Lam\'e-Clapeyron-Stefan problem for a semi-infinite material an equivalence between the temperature and convective boundary conditions at the fixed face in the case that an inequality for the convective transfer…

The classical Stefan problem is reduced as the singular limit of phase-field equations. These equations are for temperature $u$ and the phase-field $\varphi$, consists of a heat equation: $$ u_t+\ell\varphi_t=\Delta u, $$ and a…

Moving boundary problems allow to model systems with phase transition at an inner boundary. Driven by problems in economics and finance, in particular modeling of limit order books, we consider a stochastic and non-linear extension of the…

We develop a new variational formulation of the inverse Stefan problem, where information on the heat flux on the fixed boundary is missing and must be found along with the temperature and free boundary. We employ optimal control framework,…

We introduce and analyze a nonlocal version of the one-phase Stefan problem in which, as in the classical model, the rate of growth of the volume of the liquid phase is proportional to the rate at which energy is lost through the…

A logarithmic type modulus of continuity is established for weak solutions to a two-phase Stefan problem, up to the parabolic boundary of a cylindrical space-time domain. For the Dirichlet problem, we merely assume that the spatial domain…
