For any smooth bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$, we construct a divergence-free velocity field $u \in L_t^1 W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ for all $p < \infty$, and magnetic fields $B^\epsilon \in L_t^p C^{m}(\Omega)$ for all $p < \infty$ and…

We study a class of discrete-time random walks in $\mathbb{R}^d$ whose conditional drift decays polynomially in time and grows polynomially with the distance from the origin to the current position. This class is related to several models…

Under fairly general assumptions, we prove that every compact invariant subset $\mathcal I$ of the semiflow generated by the semilinear damped wave equation \epsilon u_{tt}+u_t+\beta(x)u-\sum_{ij}(a_{ij} (x)u_{x_j})_{x_i}&=f(x,u),&&…

We consider equation $u_t(t,x) = \Delta u(t,x)- u(t,x) + g(u(t-h,x)) (*) $, when $g:\R_+\to \R_+$ has exactly two fixed points: $x_1= 0$ and $x_2=\kappa>0$. Assuming that $g$ is unimodal and has negative Schwarzian, we indicate explicitly a…

Commonly, normal diffusive behavior is characterized by a linear dependence of the second central moment on time, $< x^2(t) >\propto t$, while anomalous behavior is expected to show a different time dependence, $ < x^2(t) > \propto…
