In this paper we consider the 3-dimensional incompressible Oldroyd-B model. First, we establish two results of the global existence for different kinds of the coupling coefficient $k$. Then, we prove that the solutions $(u,\tau)$ are…
We calculate the survival probability P_S(t) up to time t of a tracer particle moving along a deterministic trajectory in a continuous d-dimensional space in the presence of diffusing but mutually noninteracting traps. In particular, for a…
An infinite system of point particles performing random jumps in $\mathds{R}^d$ with repulsion is studied. The states of the system are probability measures on the space of particle's configurations. The result of the paper is the…
We study the continuity of the maximum-entropy inference map for two observables in finite dimensions. We prove that the continuity is equivalent to the strong continuity of the set-valued inverse numerical range map. This gives a…
Some uniform decay estimates are established for solutions of the following type of retarded integral inequalities: $$y(t)\leq E(t,\tau)||y_\tau||+\int_\tau^t K_1(t,s)||y_s||ds+\int_t^\infty K_2(t,s)||y_s||ds+\rho, \hspace{0.5cm}…
I characterize the extreme location and extreme first passage time of a system of $N$ particles independently diffusing in a space-time random environment. I show these extreme statistics are governed by the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ)…
We define a block persistence probability $p_l(t)$ as the probability that the order parameter integrated on a block of linear size $l$ has never changed sign since the initial time in a phase ordering process at finite temperature T<T_c.…
A model for large-scale evolution recently introduced by Amaral and Meyer is studied analytically and numerically. Species are located at different trophic levels and become extinct if their prey becomes extinct. It is proved that this…
Stochastic discrete-time SIS and SIR models of endemic diseases are introduced and analyzed. For the deterministic, mean-field model, the basic reproductive number $R_0$ determines their global dynamics. If $R_0\le 1$, then the frequency of…

Quantum escape of a particle via a time-dependent confining potential in a semi-infinite one-dimensional space is discussed. We describe the time-evolution of escape states in terms of scattering states of the quantum open system, and…
We consider the initial-value problem for the one-dimensional, time-dependent wave equation with positive, Lipschitz continuous coefficients, which are constant outside a bounded region. Under the assumption of compact support of the…
This paper is devoted to the study of persistence and extinction of a species modeled by nonlocal dispersal evolution equations in moving habitats with moving speed $c$. It is shown that the species becomes extinct if the moving speed $c$…
Time evolution of the decay process of unstable particles is investigated in field theory models. We first formulate how to renormalize the non-decay amplitude beyond perturbation theory and then discuss short-time behavior of very…
In previous papers we have introduced a sufficient condition for uniform attractivity of the origin for a class of nonlinear time-varying systems which is stated in terms of persistency of excitation (PE), a concept well known in the…
Kochen-Specker theorems assure the breakdown of certain types of non-contextual hidden variable theories through the non-existence of global, holistic frame functions; alas they do not allow us to identify where this breakdown occurs, nor…
An effect generated by the nonexponential behavior of the survival amplitude of an unstable state at the long time region is considered. It is known that this amplitude tends to zero as $t$ goes to the infinity more slowly than any…
We study the late time exponential decay of the survival probability $S_\pm(t,a|x_0)\sim e^{-\theta(a)t}$, of a one-dimensional run and tumble particle starting from $x_0<a$ with an initial orientation $\sigma(0)=\pm 1$, under a confining…
Let $W=(W_t)_{t\ge0}$ be a supercritical $\alpha$-stable Dawson-Watanabe process (with $\alpha\in(0,2]$) and $f$ be a test function in the domain of $-(-\Delta)^{\frac \alpha2}$ satisfying some integrability condition. Assuming the initial…
