We introduce a new approach to prove the global existence and uniqueness of suitable weak solutions of the heat flow of harmonic mappings into CAT(0) metric spaces. Our method allows also to prove Lipschitz continuity in spatial variables…

We present two approaches to the heat flow on a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$: either as gradient flow on $L^2(M,m)$ for the energy; or as gradient flow on the reverse $L^2$-Wasserstein space $\mathcal{P}_2(M)$ of probability measures on $M$ for…

The appearance of topological effects in systems exhibiting a non-trivial topological band structure strongly relies on the coherent wave nature of the equations of motion. Here, we reveal topological dynamics in a classical stochastic…

We establish effective existence and uniqueness for the heat flow on time-dependent Riemannian manifolds, under minimal assumptions tailored towards the study of Ricci flow through singularities. The main point is that our estimates only…

Mathematical models of motility are often based on random-walk descriptions of discrete individuals that can move according to certain rules. It is usually the case that large masses concentrated in small regions of space have a great…

We study invariant random fields of nonlinear multiplicative stochastic heat equations in the weak disorder regime. Under a natural second-moment condition, we show that positive invariant fields are in one-to-one correspondence with…

The historical development of the Carnot cycle necessitated the construction of isothermal and adiabatic pathways within the cycle that were also mechanically "reversible" which lead eventually to the Kelvin-Clausius development of the…

A finite ergodic Markov chain exhibits cutoff if its distance to equilibrium remains close to its initial value over a certain number of iterations and then abruptly drops to near 0 on a much shorter time scale. Originally discovered in the…

The thermal expansion of a fluid combined with a temperature-dependent viscosity introduces nonlinearities in the Navier-Stokes equations unrelated to the convective momentum current. The couplings generate the possibility for net fluid…

In this paper characterizations of graphs satisfying heat kernel estimates for a wide class of space-time scaling functions are given. The equivalence of the two-sided heat kernel estimate and the parabolic Harnack inequality is also shown…

A series of numerical simulations of Rayleigh-B{\'e}nard convection in a cubic cavity are conducted in order to examine the structure of the thermal boundary layer in case of mixed boundary conditions. The main goal of the study is the…

This paper introduces the Attracting Random Walks model, which describes the dynamics of a system of particles on a graph with $n$ vertices. At each step, a single particle moves to an adjacent vertex (or stays at the current one) with…

We analyze the possible concentration behavior of heat flows related to the Moser-Trudinger energy and derive quantization results completely analogous to the quantization results for solutions of the corresponding elliptic equation. As an…

We study functional inequalities for Markov chains on discrete spaces with entropic Ricci curvature bounded from below. Our main results are that when curvature is non-negative, but not necessarily positive, the spectral gap, the Cheeger…

We consider non-linear evolution equations arising from mean-field limits of particle systems on discrete spaces. We investigate a notion of curvature bounds for these dynamics based on convexity of the free energy along interpolations in a…

One dimensional excited random walk has been extensively studied for bounded, i.i.d. cookie environments. In this case, many important properties of the walk including transience or recurrence, positivity or non-positivity of the speed, and…

In classical thermodynamics, heat must spontaneously flow from hot to cold systems. In quantum thermodynamics, the same law applies when considering multipartite product thermal states evolving unitarily. If initial correlations are…

It is known that the Poincar\'e inequality is equivalent to the quadratic transportation-variance inequality (namely $W_2^2(f\mu,\mu) \leqslant C_V \mathrm{Var}_\mu(f)$), see Jourdain \cite{Jourdain} and most recently Ledoux…

The problem of convective instability onset in a horizontal porous channel is explored. The channel's impermeable walls are heated with asymmetric thermal conditions modelled through unequal, but uniform, wall heat fluxes. A stationary…

We present results for the entire set of anomalous charge and heat transport coefficients for metallic systems in the presence of a finite-temperature heat bath. In realistic physical systems this necessitates the inclusion of inelastic…
