We study the dynamics of soliton solutions to the perturbed mKdV equation $\partial_t u = \partial_x(-\partial_x^2 u -2u^3) + \epsilon V u$, where $V\in \mathcal{C}^1_b(\mathbb{R})$, $0<\epsilon\ll 1$. This type of perturbation is…

We investigate the Cauchy problem for a semilinear parabolic equation driven by a mixed local-nonlocal diffusion operator of the form \[ \partial_t u - (\Delta - (-\Delta)^{\mathsf{s}})u = \mathsf{h}(t)|x|^{-b}|u|^p + t^\varrho…

We study the following time-fractional heat equation: \begin{equation*} ^{C}\partial_{t}^{\alpha}u(t)+\mathscr{L}u(t)=0,\quad u(0)=u_0\in X, \quad t\in[0,T],\quad T>0,\quad 0<\alpha<1, \end{equation*} where $^{C}\partial_{t}^{\alpha}$ is…

The study of discrete-time stochastic processes on the half-line with mean drift at $x$ given by $\mu_1 (x) \to 0$ as $x \to \infty$ is known as Lamperti's problem. We give sharp almost-sure bounds for processes of this type in the case…

Let $\{X(t),t\ge0\}$ be a centered Gaussian process and let $\gamma$ be a non-negative constant. In this paper we study the asymptotics of $P\{\underset{t\in [0,\mathcal{T}/u^\gamma]}\sup X(t)>u\}$ as $u\to\infty$, with $\mathcal{T}$ an…
