We consider a one dimensional periodic forward-backward parabolic equation, regularized by a non-linear fourth order term of order $\epsilon^2\ll 1$. This equation is known in the literature as Cahn-Hilliard equation with degenerate…

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…
We derive a system of equations which can be seen as an evolving surface version of the diffuse interface "Model H" of Hohenberg and Halperin (1977). We then consider the well-posedness for the corresponding (tangential) system when one…

We find a first order Coulomb--Higgs phase transition at moderately large values of the coupling $\lambda$, and no evidence for a change of order at any finite value of it.
We study the systematic numerical approximation of a class of Allen-Cahn type problems modeling the motion of phase interfaces. The common feature of these models is an underlying gradient flow structure which gives rise to a decay of an…
We perform computer simulations of a Cahn-Hilliard model of phase separation which has dynamical asymmetry between the two coexisting phases. The dynamical asymmetry is incorporated by considering a mobility function which is order…

Simulations in compact U(1) lattice gauge theory in 4D show now beyond any reasonable doubts that the phase transition separating the Coulomb from the confined phase is of first order, albeit a very weak one. This settles the issue from the…
Biomembranes and vesicles consisting of multiple phases can attain a multitude of shapes, undergoing complex shape transitions. We study a Cahn--Hilliard model on an evolving hypersurface coupled to Navier--Stokes equations on the surface…
