We construct nonnegative weak solutions to the singular parabolic free boundary problem \[ \partial_t u - \Delta u = - \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d} u} u_+^\gamma , \] where $\gamma \in (0,1]$, $u_+ := \max\{u,0\}$, and the term in the…

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic stability of the initial-boundary value problem of a singular PDE-ODE hybrid chemotaxis system in the half space $\R_+=[0, \infty)$. We show that when the non-zero flux boundary condition at $x=0$…

In this paper we consider a minimization problem for the functional $$ J(u)=\int_{B_1^+}|\nabla u|\sp 2+\lambda_{+}^2\chi_{\{u>0\}}+\lambda_{-}^2\chi_{\{u\leq0\}}, $$ in the upper half ball $B_1^+\subset\R^n, n\geq 2$ subject to a Lipschitz…

For $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $\{X^n_i\}$ be an infinite collection of Brownian particles on the real line where the leftmost particle $\min_iX^n_i(t)$ is given a drift $n$, and let $\mu^n_t=n^{-1}\sum_i\delta_{X^n_i(t)}$, $t\ge0$ denote the…

In this paper we study the entire solutions of the Fisher-KPP equation $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ on the half line $[0,\infty)$ with Dirichlet boundary condition at $x=0$. (1). For any $c\geq 2\sqrt{f'(0)}$, we show the existence of an entire…

We investigate general semilinear (obstacle-like) problems of the form $\Delta u = f(u)$, where $f(u)$ has a singularity/jump at $\{u=0\}$ giving rise to a free boundary. Unlike many works on such equations where $f$ is approximately…

In Part II of this series of papers, we consider an initial-boundary value problem for the Kolmogorov--Petrovskii--Piscounov (KPP) type equation with a discontinuous cut-off in the reaction function at concentration $u=u_c$. For fixed…

We study the propagation properties of nonnegative and bounded solutions of the class of reaction-diffusion equations with nonlinear fractional diffusion: $u_{t} + (-\Delta)^s (u^m)=f(u)$. For all $0<s<1$ and $m> m_c=(N-2s)_+/N $, we…

We extend the class of initial conditions for scalar delayed reaction-diffusion equations $u_t (t,x)=u_{xx}(t,x)+f(u(t, x), u(t-h, x))$ which evolve in solutions converging to monostable traveling waves. Our approach allows to compute, in…

The aim of the paper is to study the problem $$ \begin{cases} u_{tt}-\Delta u+P(x,u_t)=f(x,u) \qquad &\text{in $(0,\infty)\times\Omega$,} u=0 &\text{on $(0,\infty)\times \Gamma_0$,} u_{tt}+\partial_\nu u-\Delta_\Gamma…

In this manuscript we deal with regularity issues and the asymptotic behaviour (as $p \to \infty$) of solutions for elliptic free boundary problems of $p-$Laplacian type ($2 \leq p< \infty$): \begin{equation*} -\Delta_p u(x) +…

We consider the damped hyperbolic equation in one space dimension $\epsilon u_{tt} + u_t = u_{xx} + F(u)$, where $\epsilon$ is a positive, not necessarily small parameter. We assume that $F(0)=F(1)=0$ and that $F$ is concave on the interval…

We study the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian with drift, $\min\left\{(-\Delta)^s u + b \cdot \nabla u,\,u -\varphi\right\} = 0$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, in the critical regime $s = \frac{1}{2}$. Our main result establishes the…

We apply iteration schemes and perturbation methods to provide a complete solution of the boundary Yamabe problem with minimal boundary scenario, or equivalently, the existence of a real, positive, smooth solution of $ -\frac{4(n -1)}{n -…

This paper concerns the spreading speed and asymptotical behaviors, which was left as an open problem in \cite{LLW22}, of a Fisher-KPP nonlocal diffusion model with a free boundary. Using a new lower solution, we get the exact finite…

The present work concerns a version of the Fisher-KPP equation where the nonlinear term is replaced by a saturation mechanism, yielding a free boundary problem with mixed conditions. Following an idea proposed in [BrunetDerrida.2015], we…

This is a continuation, and conclusion, of our study of bounded solutions $u$ of the semilinear parabolic equation $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ on the real line whose initial data $u_0=u(\cdot,0)$ have finite limits $\theta^\pm$ as $x\to\pm\infty$. We…
