We consider a nonnegative potential $W:\mathbb{R}^2\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ invariant under the action of the rotation group $C_N$ of the regular polygon with $N$ sides, $N\geq 3$. We assume that $W$ has $N$ nondegenerate zeros and prove the…
We establish a comparison principle for entire solutions of the Allen--Cahn equation whose nodal sets, possibly singular, are asymptotic to a regular minimizing hypercone. We show that inclusion of the positive phases enforces a global…

The well-known cubic Allen-Cahn (AC) equation is a simple gradient dynamics (or variational) model for a nonconserved order parameter field. After revising main literature results for the occuring different types of moving fronts, we employ…

We consider solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation in the whole Grushin plane and we show that if they are monotone in the vertical direction, then they are stable and they satisfy a good energy estimate. However, they are not necessarily…
