We investigate the propagation of chemical fronts arising in Fisher--Kolmogorov--Petrovskii--Piskunov (FKPP) type models in the presence of a steady cellular flow. In the long-time limit, a steadily propagating pulsating front is…
This study investigates the critical conditions for flame propagation in channels with cold walls. We analyze the impact of the Lewis number and flow amplitude ($A$) on the minimum channel width required to sustain a premixed flame. Our…
When encountering complex fluorescence decays that deviate from exponentiality, a very appealing and powerful approach is to use lifetime (or equivalent rate constant) distributions. These are related by Laplace transform to…
The initial-boundary value problem for the density-dependent incompressible flow of liquid crystals is studied in a three-dimensional bounded smooth domain. For the initial density away from vacuum, the existence and uniqueness is…
We consider closed immersed hypersurfaces in $\R^{3}$ and $\R^4$ evolving by a class of constrained surface diffusion flows. Our result, similar to earlier results for the Willmore flow, gives both a positive lower bound on the time for…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of a system of nonlinear reaction--diffusion--advection equations in a domain consisting of two bulk regions connected via microscopic channels distributed within a thin membrane. Both the width of the…
We consider the A + A --> emptyset reaction, where the transport of the particles is given by Levy flights in a quenched random potential. With a common literature model of the disorder, the random potential can only increase the rate of…
Motivated by models of signaling pathways in B lymphocytes, which have extremely large nuclei, we study the question of how reaction-diffusion equations in thin $2D$ domains may be approximated by diffusion equations in regions of smaller…
We study a two-component reaction-diffusion system in which one of the reaction terms becomes singularly large. Assuming that the initial data are nonnegative and mutually segregated, we prove that the solution converges to that of the heat…
Certain biological reactions, such as receptor-ligand binding at cell-cell interfaces and macromolecules binding to biopolymers, require many smaller molecules crowding a reaction site to be cleared. Examples include the T cell interface, a…
Invasion phenomena for heterogeneous reaction-diffusion equations are contemporary and challenging questions in applied mathematics. In this paper we are interested in the question of spreading for a reaction-diffusion equation when the…
We provide examples of initial data which saturate the enhanced diffusion rates proved for general shear flows which are H\"{o}lder regular or Lipschitz continuous with critical points, and for regular circular flows, establishing the…
A nonlocal interface equation is derived for two-phase fluid flow, with arbitrary wettability and viscosity contrast c=(mu_1-mu_2)/(mu_1+mu_2), in a model porous medium defined as a Hele-Shaw cell with random gap b_0+delta b. Fluctuations…
The purpose of this article is to investigate the emergence of cross-diffusion in the time evolution of two slow-fast species in competition. A class of triangular cross-diffusion system is obtained as the singular limit of a fast…
We investigate a class of aggregation-diffusion equations with strongly singular kernels and weak (fractional) dissipation in the presence of an incompressible flow. Without the flow the equations are supercritical in the sense that the…
We study the ability to maintain information in a population of reacting polymers under the influence of decay, i.e., spontaneous breakdown of large polymers. At a certain decay rate, it becomes impossible to maintain a significant…
We study the long-time behavior of a particle in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 2$, subject to molecular diffusion and advection by a random incompressible flow. The velocity field is the divergence of a stationary random stream matrix $\mathbf{k}…
We study the planar front solution for a class of reaction diffusion equations in multidimensional space in the case when the essential spectrum of the linearization in the direction of the front touches the imaginary axis. At the linear…
As is well known, for the harmonic heat flow or liquid crystal flow in two-dimension, the solution may blow up when the initial energy is greater than $8\pi$. Motivated by Lai--Lin--Wang--Wei--Zhou (CPAM, 2022), where singular solutions…
We consider the Cauchy problem for two prototypes of flux-saturated diffusion equations. In arbitrary space dimension, we give an optimal condition on the growth of the initial datum which discriminates between occurrence or nonoccurrence…
