We present a systematic study of entire symmetric solutions $u:R^n\rightarrow R^m$ of the vector Allen-Cahn equation $\Delta u-W_u(u)=0, x \in R^n$, where $W:R^m\rightarrow R$ is smooth, symmetric, nonnegative with a finite number of zeros…
The aim of this paper is to study the metastable properties of the solutions to a hyperbolic relaxation of the classic Cahn-Hilliard equation in one space dimension, subject to either Neumann or Dirichlet boundary conditions. To perform…
Let $W:R^m\rightarrow R$ be a nonnegative potential with exactly two nondegenerate zeros $a_-\neq a_+\in R^m$. We assume that there are$ N\geq 1$ distinct heteroclinic orbits connecting $a_-$ to $a_+$ represented by maps $ u_1,\ldots,u_N$…
We study global variational properties of the space of solutions to $-\varepsilon^2\Delta u + W'(u)=0$ on any closed Riemannian manifold $M$. Our techniques are inspired by recent advances in the variational theory of minimal hypersurfaces…
On any closed Riemannian 3-manifold which is not a torus bundle, every nonvanishing analytic solution of the stationary Euler equations has a periodic trajectory. This result is originally due to A. Rechtman (arXiv:0904.2719) and K.…
We investigate the Allen-Cahn system \begin{equation*} \Delta u-W_u(u)=0,\quad u:\mathbb{R}^2\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^2, \end{equation*} where $W\in C^2(\mathbb{R}^2,[0,+\infty))$ is a potential with three global minima. We establish the…
In this paper we study the existence of multiple-layer solutions to the elliptic Allen-Cahn equation in hyperbolic space: \[ -\Delta_{\mathbb H} u+F'(u)=0; \] here $F$ is a nonnegative double-well potential with nondegenerate minima. We…
The goal of this paper is to study the slow motion of solutions of the nonlocal Allen-Cahn equation in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, for $n > 1$. The initial data is assumed to be close to a configuration whose interface…
We study the existence of traveling waves for the parabolic system \begin{equation} \partial_t w - \partial_{x}^2 w = -\nabla_{\mathbb{u}} W(w) \mbox{ in } [0,+\infty) \times \mathbb{R} \end{equation} where $W$ is a potential bounded below…
We reformulate the Gross-Pitaevskii equation with an external parabolic potential as a discrete dynamical system, by using the basis of Hermite functions. We consider small amplitude stationary solutions with a single node, called dark…
The existence problem for {C}ahn--{H}illiard system with dynamic boundary conditions and time periodic conditions is discussed. We apply the abstract theory of evolution equations by using viscosity approach and the Schauder fixed point…
We set up a dual variational framework to detect real standing wave solutions of the nonlinear Helmholtz equation $$ -\Delta u-k^2 u =Q(x)|u|^{p-2}u,\qquad u \in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N) $$ with $N\geq 3$, $\frac{2(N+1)}{(N-1)}<…
We consider the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, $$u_t= \Delta u + (1-u^2)u \quad \hbox{ in } \mathbb{R}^n \times (-\infty, 0].$$ We construct an ancient radially symmetric solution $u(x,t)$ with any given number…
It is known that for some time periodic potentials $q(t, x) \geq 0$ having compact support with respect to $x$ some solutions of the Cauchy problem for the wave equation $\partial_t^2 u - \Delta_x u + q(t,x)u = 0$ have exponentially…
Allen-Cahn equation is a fundamental continuum model that describes phase transitions in multi-component mixtures. We prove the existence of traveling waves for vector valued Allen-Cahn equations in the context of Ginzburg-Landau theories;…
We introduce a quantitative condition on orbits of dynamical systems which measures their aperiodicity. We show the existence of sequences in the Bernoulli-shift and geodesics on closed hyperbolic manifolds which are as aperiodic as…
In this paper the well-posedness of some degenerate parabolic equations with a dynamic boundary condition is considered. To characterize the target degenerate parabolic equation from the Cahn-Hilliard system, the nonlinear term coming from…
In this paper, we establish a novel approach to proving existence of non-negative weak solutions for degenerate parabolic equations of fourth order, like the Cahn-Hilliard and certain thin film equations. The considered evolution equations…
Recently, the Whitham and capillary-Whitham equations were shown to accurately model the evolution of surface waves on shallow water. In order to gain a deeper understanding of these equations, we compute periodic, traveling-wave solutions…
The well-posedness of a system of partial differential equations and dynamic boundary conditions, both of Cahn-Hilliard type, is discussed. The existence of a weak solution and its continuous dependence on the data are proved using a…
