For the two dimensional Allen-Cahn system with a triple-well potential, previous results established the existence of a minimizing solution $u:\mathbb{R}^2\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^2$ with a triple junction structure at infinity. We show that…

In this paper, we obtain an explicit formula for the discrepancy between the limit of the second inner variations of $p$-Laplace Allen-Cahn energies and the second inner variation of their $\Gamma$-limit which is the area functional. Our…

In this paper, we consider the sharp interface limit of a matrix-valued Allen-Cahn equation, which takes the form: $$\partial_t A=\Delta A-\varepsilon^{-2}( A A^{\mathrm{T}}A-…

This paper develops a comprehensive probabilistic setup to compute approximating functions in active subspaces. Constantine et al. proposed the active subspace method in (Constantine et al., 2014) to reduce the dimension of computational…

We study the asymptotic limit of the Cahn-Hilliard equation on an evolving surface with prescribed velocity. The method of formally matched asymptotic expansions is extended to account for the movement of the domain. We consider various…

We are concerned with solutions to the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation in Riemannian manifolds. For a general class of initial condition we show non positivity of the limiting energy discrepancy. This in turn allows to prove almost…

This paper investigates the connection between the effective, large scale behavior of Allen-Cahn energy functionals in periodic media and the sharp interface limit of the associated $L^{2}$ gradient flows. By introducing a Percival-type…

We study the hydrodynamic scaling limit for the Glauber-Kawasaki dynamics. It is known that, if the Kawasaki part is speeded up in a diffusive space-time scaling, one can derive the Allen-Cahn equation which is a kind of the…

We discuss when law-invariant convex functionals "collapse to the mean". More precisely, we show that, in a large class of spaces of random variables and under mild semicontinuity assumptions, the expectation functional is, up to an affine…

We show that convexity of the effective action follows from its functional flow equation. Our analysis is based on a new, spectral representation. The results are relevant for the study of physical instabilities. We also derive constraints…

We investigate the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface system that couples the Allen--Cahn equation with the instationary Navier--Stokes system in a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \in \{2,3\}$. This model is used to…

We establish multi-scale convergence theory for a class of Hamilton-Jacobi PDEs in space of probability measures. They arise from context of hydrodynamic limit of N-particle deterministic action minimizing (global) Lagrangian dynamics. From…

We provide a probabilistic proof of a well known connection between a special case of the Allen-Cahn equation and mean curvature flow. We then prove a corresponding result for scaling limits of the spatial $\Lambda$-Fleming-Viot process…

This paper considers a one-dimensional generalized Allen-Cahn equation of the form \[ u_t = \varepsilon^2 (D(u)u_x)_x - f(u), \] where $\varepsilon>0$ is constant, $D=D(u)$ is a positive, uniformly bounded below diffusivity coefficient that…

In this article we study the second variation of the energy functional associated to the Allen-Cahn equation on closed manifolds. Extending well known analogies between the gradient theory of phase transitions and the theory of minimal…

Rabinowitz action functional is the Lagrange multiplier functional of the negative area functional to a constraint given by the mean value of a Hamiltonian. In this note we show that on a symplectization there is a one-to-one correspondence…

We use a min-max procedure on the Allen-Cahn energy functional to construct geodesics on closed, 2-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, as motivated by the work of Guaraco. Borrowing classical blowup and curvature estimates from geometric…

Ambartzumian et.al. suggested that the modified Steiner action functional had desirable properties for a random surface action. However, Durhuus and Jonsson pointed out that such an action led to an ill-defined grand-canonical partition…

Consider the Allen-Cahn equation $u_t=\varepsilon^2\Delta u-F'(u)$, where $F$ is a double well potential with wells of equal depth, located at $\pm1$. There are a lot of papers devoted to the study of the limiting behavior of the solutions…

In this work, we study a matrix-valued Allen-Cahn equation with a Saint Venant-Kirchhoff potential $F(\mathbf{A})=\frac{1}{4}\|\mathbf{A}\mathbf{A}^\top-\mathbf{I}\|^2$. Our approach employs the modulated energy method together with weak…
