In this article, we extend Huisken's theorem that convex surfaces flow to round points by mean curvature flow. We construct certain classes of mean convex and non-mean convex hypersurfaces that shrink to round points and use these…

Last passage percolation (LPP) is a model of a directed metric and a zero-temperature polymer where the main observable is a directed path evolving in a random environment accruing as energy the sum of the random weights along itself. When…

Let D be a bounded, smooth enough domain of R^2. For L>0 consider the continuous time, zero-temperature heat bath dynamics for the nearest-neighbor Ising model on (Z/L)^2 (the square lattice with lattice spacing 1/L) with initial condition…

We estimate the heat kernel on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$, with $dim(M)\geq 3$, evolving under the Ricci-harmonic map flow and the result depends on some constants arising from a Sobolev imbedding theorem. In a special case, when the…

We give a proof of Gaussian upper bound for the heat kernel coupled with the Ricci ow. Previous proofs by Lei Ni [5] use Harnack inequality and doubling volume property, also the recent proof by Zhang and Cao [6] uses Sobolev type…

We present analytical and numerical results on the heat conduction in a linear mixing system. In particular we consider a quasi one dimensional channel with triangular scatterers with internal angles irrational multiples of pi and we show…

We study the heat flow of p-harmonic maps between complete Riemannian manifolds. We prove the global existence of the flow when the initial datum has values in a generalised regular ball. In particular, if the target manifold has…

The uniform shear flow for the rarefied gas is governed by the time-dependent spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with a linear shear force. The main feature of such flow is that the temperature may increase in time due to the shearing…

The heat trace of a planar polygon contains corner terms depending only on the opening angles, while the heat trace of a smooth planar domain contains curvature terms along the boundary. We show that, for curvilinear polygons, these two…

The second law of thermodynamics dictates that heat flows spontaneously from a high-temperature entity to a lower-temperature one. Yet, recent advances have demonstrated that quantum correlations between a system and its thermal environment…

A family of nonsingular rational solutions of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) I equation are investigated. These solutions have multiple peaks whose heights are time-dependent and the peak trajectories in the $xy$-plane are altered after…

We study the nonequlibrium state of heat conduction in a one-dimensional system of hard point particles of unequal masses interacting through elastic collisions. A BBGKY-type formulation is presented and some exact results are obtained from…

The Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation with infinitesimal surface tension, dynamically develops sharply connected valley structures within which the height derivative is not continuous. We discuss the intermittency issue in the problem of…

We investigate the effective coupling between heat and fluid dynamics within a thin fluid layer in contact with a solid structure via a rough surface. Moreover, the opposing vertical surfaces of the thin layer are in relative motion. This…

In this paper we consider the homogenization of a time-dependent heat conduction problem on a planar one-dimensional periodic structure. On the edges of a graph the one-dimensional heat equation is posed, while the Kirchhoff junction…

We investigate the thermodynamic limit of the circular long-range Riesz gas, a system of particles interacting pairwise through an inverse power kernel. We show that after rescaling, so that the typical spacing of particles is of order $1$,…

In the steady Couette flow of a granular gas the sign of the heat flux gradient is governed by the competition between viscous heating and inelastic cooling. We show from the Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell particles that a special…

We describe a directed avalanche model; a slowly unloading sandbox driven by lowering a retaining wall. The directness of the dynamics allows us to interpret the stable sand surfaces as world sheets of fluctuating interfaces in one lower…

An evolving surface finite element discretisation is analysed for the evolution of a closed two-dimensional surface governed by a system coupling a generalised forced mean curvature flow and a reaction--diffusion process on the surface,…

Let $\{u(t,x)\}_{t>0,x\in{{\mathbb R}^{d}}}$ denote the solution to the linear (fractional) stochastic heat equation. We establish rates of convergence with respect to the uniform distance between the density of spatial averages of solution…
