In this paper we obtain rigidity results for a bounded non-constant entire solution $u$ of the Allen-Cahn equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$, whose level set $\{u=0\}$ is contained in a half-space. If $n\leq 3$ we prove that the solution must be…
A well-known conjecture of De Giorgi -- motivated by analogy with the Bernstein problem for minimal surfaces -- asserts the rigidity of monotone solutions to the Allen--Cahn equation in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, with $d\leq 7$. We establish close…
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…
In this paper we study stable solutions to the fractional equation \begin{align} (-\Delta)^s u =f(u), \quad |u| < 1 \quad \mbox{in $\mathbb{R}^d$}, \end{align}where $0<s<1$ and $f:[-1,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a $C^{1,\alpha}$ function…
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…
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 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 consider the isoperimetric problem defined on the whole $\mathbb{R}^n$ by the Allen--Cahn energy functional. For non-degenerate double well potentials, we prove sharp quantitative stability inequalities of quadratic type which are…
We consider the parabolic one-dimensional Allen-Cahn equation $$u_t= u_{xx}+ u(1-u^2)\quad (x,t)\in \mathbb{R}\times (-\infty, 0].$$ The steady state $w(x) =\tanh (x/\sqrt{2})$, connects, as a "transition layer" the stable phases $-1$ and…
In this paper we consider the Allen-Cahn equation $$ -\Delta u = u-u^3 \ \mbox{in} \ {\mathbb R}^3 $$ We prove that for each $k\in\left( \sqrt{2},+\infty\right),$ there exists a solution to the equation which has growth rate $k$, i.e. $$ \|…
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,…
