n this paper we study the asymptotic behavior for a nonlocal heat equation in an inhomogenous medium: $$\rho(x)u_t=J\ast u-u \text{in}\mathbb{R}^N\times (0,\infty)\,,$$ where $\rho$ is a continous positive function, $u$ is nonnegative and…

In this paper, we observe how the heat equation in a non-cylindrical domain can arise as the asymptotic limit of a parabolic problem in a cylindrical domain, by adding a potential that vanishes outside the limit domain. This can be seen as…

The study of the Unruh effect naturally raises the interest for a deeper understanding of the analogy between temperature and acceleration. A recurring question is whether an accelerated frame can be distinguished from an inertial thermal…
A comment on the Letter by E. Aghion, D. Kessler, and E. Barkai, Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 260601 (2017). An important criterion on finite kinetic temperature of the system of cold atoms is established. It is shown that the kinetic temperature…
