In previous works [4, 5], existence and uniqueness of travelling waves for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations have been shown for speeds close to the speed of sound. Furthermore, it has been proved that a chain of dark solitons of…
The nonlinear Schroedinger equation has several families of quasi-periodic travelling waves, each of which can be parametrized up to symmetries by two real numbers: the period of the modulus of the wave profile, and the variation of its…

Fronts that start from a local perturbation and propagate into a linearly unstable state come in two classes: pulled and pushed. ``Pulled'' fronts are ``pulled along'' by the spreading of linear perturbations about the unstable state, so…
We consider the Dirichlet problem u_t &= \Delta u + f(x, u, \nabla u)+ h(x, t),& \qquad &(x, t) \in \Omega \times (0, \infty), u &= 0, & \qquad &(x, t) \in \partial\Omega \times (0, \infty), on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset…
This paper is concerned with the initial value problem for semilinear wave equation with structural damping $u_{tt}+(-\Delta)^{\sigma}u_t -\Delta u =f(u)$, where $\sigma \in (0,\frac{1}{2})$ and $f(u) \sim |u|^p$ or $u |u|^{p-1}$ with $p> 1…
We prove a nonpolarised analogue of the asymptotic characterization of $T^2$-symmetric Einstein Flow solutions completed recently by LeFloch and Smulevici. In this work, we impose a condition weaker than polarisation and so our result…

We investigate the equation $(u_t + (f(u))_x)_x = f''(u) (u_x)^2/2$ where $f(u)$ is a given smooth function. Typically $f(u)= u^2/2$ or $u^3/3$. This equation models unidirectional and weakly nonlinear waves for the variational wave…
