We consider a 2D smectics model \begin{equation*} E_{\epsilon }\left( u\right) =\frac{1}{2}\int_\Omega \frac{1}{\varepsilon }\left( u_{z}-\frac{1% }{2}u_{x}^{2}\right) ^{2}+\varepsilon \left( u_{xx}\right) ^{2}dx\,dz. \end{equation*} For…
We consider the 3D smectic energy $$\mathcal{E}_{\epsilon }\left( u\right) =\frac{1}{2}\int_{\Omega }\frac{1}{\varepsilon } \left( u_z-\frac{( u_x)^{2}+( u_y)^{2}}{2}\right) ^{2}+\varepsilon \left( u_{xx}+u_{yy}\right)^{2}\,dx\,dy\,dz. $$…
We study the asymptotic behavior, when $\varepsilon\to0$, of the minimizers $\{u_\varepsilon\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ for the energy \begin{equation*} E_\varepsilon(u)=\int_{\Omega}\Big(|\nabla…
We analyse an energy minimisation problem recently proposed for modelling smectic-A liquid crystals. The optimality conditions give a coupled nonlinear system of partial differential equations, with a second-order equation for the…
We consider a variant of Gamow's liquid drop model with an anisotropic surface energy. Under suitable regularity and ellipticity assumptions on the surface tension, Wulff shapes are minimizers in this problem if and only if the surface…
Consider the Lane-Emden system \begin{equation*}\begin{aligned} &-\Delta u=v^p,\quad u>0,\quad\text{in}~\Omega, &-\Delta v=u^q,\quad v>0,\quad\text{in}~\Omega, &u=v=0,\quad\text{on}~\partial\Omega, \end{aligned}\end{equation*} where…
On a compact manifold $M^{n}$ ($n\geq 3$) with boundary, we study the asymptotic behavior as $\epsilon$ tends to zero of solutions $u_{\epsilon}: M \to \mathbb{C}$ to the equation $\Delta u_{\epsilon} + \epsilon^{-2}(1 -…
We show that local minimizers of the Canham-Helfrich energy are asymptotically stable with respect to a model for relaxational fluid vesicle dynamics that we already studied in previous papers ([12, 11]). The proof is based on a…
We study the Langevin dynamics for spherical $p$-spin models, focusing on the short time regime described by the Cugliandolo-Kurchan equations. Confirming a prediction of [Cugliandolo-Kurchan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 1993], we show the asymptotic…
We consider a non-linear integro-differential model describing $z$, the position of the cell center on the real line presented in [Grec et al., J. Theo. Bio. 2018]. We introduce a new $\varepsilon$-scaling and we prove rigorously the…
In this paper, we establish an $\varepsilon$-regularity theorem for minimizers of an Alt-Phillips type functional subject to constraint maps. We prove that under sufficiently small energy, the minimizers exhibit regularity, and hence…
For the Landau-de Gennes functional modeling nematic liquid crystals in dimension three, we prove that, if the energy is bounded by $C(\log\frac{1}{\varepsilon}+1)$, then the sequence of minimizers…
A model for a MEMS device, consisting of a fixed bottom plate and an elastic plate, is studied. It was derived in a previous work as a reinforced limit when the thickness of the insulating layer covering the bottom plate tends to zero. This…
In this work we study the asymptotic behavior of a class of damped second-order gradient systems $$ \ddot{u}(t) + a\dot{u}(t) + \nabla W(u(t)) = 0, $$ under assumptions ensuring local convexity of the potential near equilibrium and…
An asymptotic preserving and energy stable scheme for the Euler-Poisson system under the quasineutral scaling is designed and analysed. Correction terms are introduced in the convective fluxes and the electrostatic potential, which lead to…
We show that nonlinearly elastic plates of thickness $h\to 0$ with an $\varepsilon$-periodic structure such that $\varepsilon^{-2}h\to 0$ exhibit non-standard behaviour in the asymptotic two-dimensional reduction from three-dimensional…
We complete the study of the asymptotic behavior, as $p\rightarrow +\infty$, of the positive solutions to \[ \left\{\begin{array}{lr}-\Delta u= u^p & \mbox{in}\Omega\\ u=0 &\mbox{on}\partial \Omega \end{array}\right. \] when $\Omega$ is any…
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a class of nonlinear elliptic problems posed in a 2-dimensional domain that degenerates into a line segment (a thin domain) when a positive parameter $\varepsilon$ goes to…
Inspired by Lin-Pan-Wang (Comm. Pure Appl. Math., 65(6): 833-888, 2012), we continue to study the corresponding time-independent case of the Keller-Rubinstein-Sternberg problem. To be precise, we explore the asymptotic behavior of…
We consider a finite region of a $d$-dimensional lattice, $d\in\mathbb{N}$, of weakly coupled harmonic oscillators. The coupling is provided by a nearest-neighbour potential (harmonic or not) of size $\varepsilon$. Each oscillator weakly…
