We consider single-file diffusion in an open system with two species $A,B$ of particles. At the boundaries we assume different reservoir densities which drive the system into a non-equilibrium steady state. As a model we use an…

We consider the initial value problem for the generalized Allen-Cahn equation, \[\partial_t \Phi = \Delta \Phi-\varepsilon^{-2} \Phi (\Phi^t \Phi - I), \qquad x \in \Omega, \ t\geq 0,\] where $\Phi$ is an $n\times n$ real matrix-valued…

We consider a particle living in $\mathbb{R}_+$, whose velocity is a positive recurrent diffusion with heavy-tailed invariant distribution when the particle lives in $(0,\infty)$. When it hits the boundary $x=0$, the particle restarts with…

We study an one dimensional model where an interface is the stationary solution of a mesoscopic non local evolution equation which has been derived by a microscopic stochastic spin system. Deviations from this evolution equation can be…
We consider a diffuse interface model describing a ternary system constituted by a conductive diblock copolymer and a homopolymer acting as solvent. The resulting dynamics is modeled by two Cahn--Hilliard--Oono equations for the copolymer…

In this paper we consider the flow of two incompressible, viscous and immiscible fluids in a bounded domain, with different densities and viscosities. This model consists of a coupled system of Navier-Stokes and Mullins-Sekerka type parts,…
We consider exclusion processes with two types of particles which compete strongly with each other. In particular, we focus on the case where one species does not diffuse at all and killing rates of two species are given by monomials with…
Interfaces in a model with a single, real nonconserved order parameter and purely dissipative evolution equation are considered. We show that a systematic perturbative approach, called the expansion in width and developed for curved domain…
