We consider a class of semilinear elliptic equations of the form$$-{\epsilon }^2\Delta u(x,y)+a\left(x\right)W^{\text{'}}\left(u(x,y)\right)=0,(x,y)\in {ℝ}^2$$where $\epsilon \>0$, $a:ℝ\to ℝ$ is a periodic, positive function and $W:ℝ\to ℝ$ is modeled on the classical two well Ginzburg-Landau potential $W\left(s\right)={(s^2-1)}^2$. We look for solutions to (1) which verify the asymptotic conditions $u(x,y)\to \pm 1$ as $x\to \pm \infty$ uniformly with respect to $y\in ℝ$. We show via variational methods that if $\epsilon$ is sufficiently small and $a$ is not constant, then (1) admits infinitely many of such solutions, distinct up to translations, which do not exhibit one dimensional symmetries.

We present a unified mathematical approach to epidemiological models with parametric heterogeneity, i.e., to the models that describe individuals in the population as having specific parameter (trait) values that vary from one individuals to another. This is a natural framework to model, e.g., heterogeneity in susceptibility or infectivity of individuals. We review, along with the necessary theory, the results obtained using the discussed approach....

In this article, the equivalence and symmetries of underdetermined differential equations and differential equations with deviations of the first order are considered with respect to the pseudogroup of transformations $\overline{x}=\varphi \left(x\right),$$\overline{y}...$

We consider a Strang-type splitting method for an abstract semilinear evolution equation $${\partial }_{t}u=Au+F\left(u\right).$$ Roughly speaking, the splitting method is a time-discretization approximation based on the decomposition of the operators $A$ and $F.$ Particularly, the Strang method is a popular splitting method and is known to be convergent at a second order rate for some particular ODEs and PDEs. Moreover, such estimates usually address the case of splitting the operator into two parts. In this paper, we consider the splitting...

We study asymptotic properties of solutions for a system of second differential equations with $p$-Laplacian. The main purpose is to investigate lower estimates of singular solutions of second order differential equations with $p$-Laplacian ${\left(A\left(t\right){\Phi }_p\left(y^{\text{'}}\right)\right)}^{\text{'}}+B\left(t\right)g\left(y^{\text{'}}\right)+R\left(t\right)f\left(y\right)=e\left(t\right)$. Furthermore, we obtain results for a scalar equation.
