We consider the scalar semilinear heat equation $u_t-\Delta u=f(u)$, where $f\colon[0,\infty)\to[0,\infty)$ is continuous and non-decreasing but need not be convex. We completely characterise those functions $f$ for which the equation has a…

We derive a robust error estimate for a recently proposed numerical method for $\alpha$-dissipative solutions of the Hunter-Saxton equation, where $\alpha \in [0, 1]$. In particular, if the following two conditions hold: i) there exist a…

Convergence of operators acting on a given Hilbert space is an old and well studied topic in operator theory. The idea of introducing a related notion for operators acting on arying spaces is natural. However, it seems that the first…

This paper investigates the higher pointwise regularity of nonnegative classical solutions for fully fractional parabolic equations $(\partial_t -\Delta)^{s} u = f,$ where $s\in(0,1)$. We establish $C^{k+\alpha+2s}$ or $C^{k+\alpha+2s,\ln}…

We characterize the asymptotic behavior near blowup points for positive solutions of the semilinear heat equation \begin{equation*} \partial_t u-\Delta u =f(u), \end{equation*} for nonlinearities which are genuinely non scale invariant,…

This note is concerned with two families of operators related to the fractional Laplacian, the first arising from the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension problem and the second from the fractional heat equation. They both include the Poisson…

We consider the following exponential reaction-diffusion equation involving a nonlinear gradient term: $$\partial_t U = \Delta U + \alpha|\nabla U|^2 + e^U,\quad (x, t)\in\mathbb{R}^N\times[0,T), \quad \alpha > -1.$$ We construct for this…

We define and study fractional versions of the well-known Gamma subordinator $\Gamma :=\{\Gamma (t),$ $t\geq 0\},$ which are obtained by time-changing $% \Gamma $ by means of an independent stable subordinator or its inverse. Their…

In the paper we consider the Bessel differential operator L^(\mu)=\dfrac{d^2}{dx^2}+\dfrac{2\mu+1}{x}\dfrac{d}{dx} in half-line (a,\infty), a>0, and its Dirichlet heat kernel p_a^(\mu)(t,x,y). For \mu=0, by combining analytical and…

We consider half-harmonic maps from $\mathbb{R}$ (or $\mathbb{S}$) to $\mathbb{S}$. We prove that all (finite energy) half-harmonic maps are non-degenerate. In other words, they are integrable critical points of the energy functional. A…
