The large time behavior of non-negative weak solutions to a thin film approximation of the two-phase Muskat problem is studied. A classification of self-similar solutions is first provided: there is always a unique even self-similar…

We construct closed, embedded, ancient mean curvature flows in each dimension $n\ge 2$ with the topology of $S^1 \times S^{n-1}$. These examples are not mean convex and not solitons. They are constructed by analyzing perturbations of the…

We provide several examples of dissipative systems that can be obtained from conservative ones through a simple, quadratic,change of time. A typical example is the curve-shortening flow in R^d, which is a particular case ofmean-curvature…

We introduce a new geometric flow called the chord shortening flow which is the negative gradient flow for the length functional on the space of chords with end points lying on a fixed submanifold in Euclidean space. As an application, we…

In this paper, we study curve shortening flows on rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the surfaces have negative Gauss curvatures and that some condition related to the Gauss curvature and the curvature of embedded curve…

In this paper we consider the discrete Allen-Cahn equation posed on a two-dimensional rectangular lattice. We analyze the large-time behaviour of solutions that start as bounded perturbations to the well-known planar front solution that…

This paper proposes two proximal Newton-CG methods for convex nonsmooth optimization problems in composite form. The algorithms are based on a a reformulation of the original nonsmooth problem as the unconstrained minimization of a…

In this paper, we investigate closed strictly convex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which shrink self-similarly under a large family of fully nonlinear curvature flows by high powers of curvature. When the speed function is given by…

This paper is concerned with recovering the solution of a final value problem associated with a parabolic equation involving a non linear source and a non-local term, which to the best of our knowledge has not been studied earlier. It is…

It is shown that the curvature function satisfies a nonlinear evolution equation under the general curve shortening flow and a detailed asymptotic behavior of the closed curves is presented when they contract to a point in finite time.

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…

We construct fundamental solutions to the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equations on compact manifolds by the time-slicing approximation of the Feynman path integral. We show that the iteration of short-time approximate solutions converges…

We show the existence of non-homothetic ancient flows by powers of curvature embedded in $\mathbb{R}^2$ whose entropy is finite. We determine the Morse indices and kernels of the linearized operator of shrinkers to the flows and construct…

We present an optimization-based method to efficiently calculate accurate nonlinear models of Taylor vortex flow. We use the resolvent formulation of McKeon & Sharma (2010) to model these Taylor vortex solutions by treating the nonlinearity…

In this paper we show how, under surprisingly weak assumptions, one can split a planar curve into three arcs and rearrange them (matching tangent directions) to obtain a closed curve. We also generalize this construction to curves split…

Given a compact three-manifold together with a Riemannian metric, we prove the short-time existence of a solution to the renormalization group flow, truncated at the second order term, under a suitable hypothesis on the sectional curvature…

We prove a parabolically scale-invariant variation of the planarity estimate in \cite{Na22} for higher codimension mean curvature flow, borrowing ideas from work of Brendle--Huisken--Sinestrari \cite{BHS}. Additionally, we prove convexity…

We establish the existence of loop type subcontinua of nonnegative solutions for a class of concave-convex type elliptic equations with indefinite weights, under Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. Our approach depends on local and…

We consider the problem of finding curves of minimum pointwise-maximum curvature, i.e., curves of minimax curvature, among planar curves of fixed length with prescribed endpoints and tangents at the endpoints. We reformulate the problem in…

We consider minimization of functions that are compositions of convex or prox-regular functions (possibly extended-valued) with smooth vector functions. A wide variety of important optimization problems fall into this framework. We describe…
