We introduce a new $hp$-adaptive strategy for self-adjoint elliptic boundary value problems that does not rely on using classical a posteriori error estimators. Instead, our approach is based on a generally applicable prediction strategy…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift term in an open subset of two-dimensional Euclidean space. When the drift is given by $\varepsilon^{-1} (H_{x_2}, -H_{x_1})$ of a Hamiltonian…

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…

A mutualist model with nonlocal diffusions and a free boundary is first considered. We prove that this problem has a unique solution defined $t\ge0$, and its dynamics are governed by a spreading-vanishing dichotomy. Some criteria for…

As autonomous robots move into complex, dynamic real-world environments, they must learn to navigate safely in real time, yet anticipating all possible behaviors is infeasible. We propose a composable, model-free reinforcement learning…

Using linearized elasticity as a convenient mechanical framework, we show that volumetric growth can be formulated as an optimization-driven process in which the growth tensor is determined implicitly by constrained optimization rather than…

We study for the first time a two-phase free boundary problem in which the solution satisfies a Robin boundary condition. We consider the case in which the solution is continuous across the free boundary and we prove an existence and a…
