In this short note, we present new observations and examples concerning the existence and rigidity of solutions to the Allen-Cahn equation with degenerate minimal hypersurfaces as their limit interfaces.
In this work we study existence, asymptotic behaviour and stability properties of $O(m) times O(n)$ invariant solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation $Delta u+u(1-u^2)=0$ in $R^m times R^n$ with $m,n ge 2$, $m+n ge 8$. We exhibit four families…
In this work we discuss stability and nondegeneracy properties of some special families of minimal hypersurfaces embedded in $\mathbb{R}^m\times \mathbb{R}^n$ with $m,n\geq 2$. These hypersurfaces are asymptotic at infinity to a fixed…
In this paper, we are interested in bounded, entire, solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation which are defined in Euclidean space and whose zero set is asymptotic to a given minimal cone. In particular, in dimension larger than or equal to 8,…
We consider minimal surfaces $M$ which are complete, embedded and have finite total curvature in $\R^3$, and bounded, entire solutions with finite Morse index of the Allen-Cahn equation $\Delta u + f(u) = 0 \hbox{in} \R^3 $. Here $f=-W'$…
We construct new families of two-ended $O(m)\times O(n)$-invariant solutions to the Allen- Cahn equation \Delta u+u-u3=0 in $\mathbb{R}^{N+1}$, with $N\ge 7$, whose zero level sets diverge logarithmically from the Lawson cone at infinity.…
We show that strictly stable components of Allen-Cahn minimal hypersurfaces always occur with multiplicity one. We also establish the uniqueness of solutions converging to nondegenerate hypersurfaces with multiplicity one. Our results work…
In this paper we present a new family of solutions to the singularly perturbed Allen-Cahn equation $\alpha^2 \Delta u + u(1-u^2)=0, \quad \hbox{in }\Omega\subset \R^N $ where $N=3$, $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded domain and $\A>0$ is a small…
The semi-linear, elliptic PDE $AC_{\varepsilon}(u):=-\varepsilon^2\Delta u+W'(u)=0$ is called the Allen-Cahn equation. In this article we will prove the existence of finite energy solution to the Allen-Cahn equation on certain complete,…
We study global variational properties of the space of solutions to $-\varepsilon^2\Delta u + W'(u)=0$ on any closed Riemannian manifold $M$. Our techniques are inspired by recent advances in the variational theory of minimal hypersurfaces…
We show that stable solutions $u:\mathbb{R}^4\to (-1,1)$ to the Allen-Cahn equation with bounded energy density (or equivalently, with cubic energy growth) are one-dimensional. This is known to entail important geometric consequences, such…
We prove that given a minimal hypersurface $\Gamma$ in a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary, if all the Jacobi fields of $\Gamma$ are generated by ambient isometries, then we can find solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation…
The Allen-Cahn equation is a semilinear PDE which is deeply linked to the theory of minimal hypersurfaces via a singular limit. We prove curvature estimates and strong sheet separation estimates for stable solutions (building on recent work…
We prove that for any given compact Riemannian manifold $N$ of dimension $n+1 \geq 3$ and any non-negative Lipschitz function $g$ on $N$, there exists a quasi-embedded, boundaryless hypersurface $M \subset N,$ of class $C^{2, \alpha}$ for…
In this paper we prove the uniqueness of the saddle-shaped solution to the semilinear nonlocal elliptic equation $(-\Delta)^\gamma u = f(u)$ in $\mathbb R^{2m}$, where $\gamma \in (0,1)$ and $f$ is of Allen-Cahn type. Moreover, we prove…
We study stable solutions to the fractional Allen-Cahn equation \linebreak $(-\Delta)^{s/2} u = u-u^3$, $|u|<1$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$. For every $s\in (0,1)$ and dimension $n\geq 2$, we establish sharp energy estimates, density estimates, and…
We make use of the flexibility of infinite-index solutions to the Allen-Cahn equation to show that, given any compact hypersurface $\Sigma$ of R^d, with $d\geq 4$, there is a bounded entire solution of the Allen-Cahn equation on R^d whose…
It is well-known that under suitable hypotheses, for a sequence of solutions of the (simplified) Ginzburg-Landau equations $-\Delta u_\varepsilon +\varepsilon^{-2}(|u_\varepsilon|^2-1)u_\varepsilon = 0$, the energy and vorticity concentrate…
We prove the existence of global minimizers of Allen-Cahn equation in dimensions $8$ and above. More precisely, given any strictly area-minimizing Lawson's cones, there are global minimizers whose nodal sets are asymptotic to the cones. As…
Let $\Sigma$ be a surface of constant mean curvature in ${\mathbb R}^3$ with multiple Delaunay ends. Assuming that $\Sigma$ is non degenerate in this paper we construct new solutions to the Cahn-Hilliard equation $\varepsilon\Delta…
