The author studies the diffusion problem $u_t=u_{xx},\ 0<x<1,\ t>0; \ u(x,0)=0,$ and $-u_x(0,t)=u_x(1,t)=\phi(t),$ where $\phi(t)$ is a control function that ensures that the total mass $\int_0^1 u(x,t_k)dx$ stays between two predetermined…

This article focuses on a large family of cross-diffusion systems of the form $\partial$ t U-$\Delta$A(U) = 0, in dimension d $\in$ N * , and where U $\in$ R 2. We show that under natural conditions on the nonlinearity A, those systems have…

We present local existence and uniqueness results for the following $2+1$ dispersive diffusive equation due to P. Hall arising in modeling of river braiding: $$u_{yyt} - \gamma u_{xxx} -\alpha u_{yyyy} - \beta u_{yy} + \left (u^2…

We consider the Fast Diffusion Equation $u_t=\Delta u^m$ posed in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega\subset \RR^d$ with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions; the exponent range is $m_s=(d-2)_+/(d+2)<m<1$. It is known that bounded positive…

In [1], we showed contractivity of reaction-diffusion PDE: \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}({\omega},t) = F(u({\omega},t)) + D\Delta u({\omega},t) with Neumann boundary condition, provided \mu_{p,Q}(J_F (u)) < 0 (uniformly on u), for some 1…
