Our aim in this paper is to study the existence of solutions to a phase-field system based on the Maxwell-Cattaneo heat conduction law, with a logarithmic nonlinearity. In particular, we prove, in one and two space dimensions, the existence of a solution which is separated from the singularities of the nonlinear term.

We prove existence/nonexistence and uniqueness of positive entire solutions for some semilinear elliptic equations on the Hyperbolic space.

We prove an existence theorem of Cauchy-Kovalevskaya type for the equation $D_{t}u(t,z)=f(t,z,u\left({\alpha }^{\left(0\right)}(t,z)\right),D_{z}u\left({\alpha }^{\left(1\right)}(t,z)\right),...,D_z^{k}u\left({\alpha }^{\left(k\right)}(t,z)\right))$ where f is a polynomial with respect to the last k variables.

We obtain new variants of weighted Gagliardo-Nirenberg interpolation inequalities in Orlicz spaces, as a consequence of weighted Hardy-type inequalities. The weights we consider need not be doubling.

We consider the problem of minimizing the energy$$E\left(u\right):={\int }_{\Omega }{\left|\nabla u\left(x\right)\right|}^2\mathrm{d}x+{\int }_{S_u\cap \Omega }\left(1+\left|\right[u\left]\right(x\left)\right|\right)\mathrm{d}{H}^{N-1}\left(x\right)$$among all functions $u\in SB{V}^2\left(\Omega \right)$ for which two level sets $\{u=l_i\}$ have prescribed Lebesgue measure ${\alpha }_i$. Subject to this volume constraint the existence of minimizers for $E(·)$ is proved and the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions is investigated.

We consider a random, uniformly elliptic coefficient field $a$ on the lattice ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$. The distribution $\langle ·\rangle$ of the coefficient field is assumed to be stationary. Delmotte and Deuschel showed that the gradient and second mixed derivative of the parabolic Green’s function $G(t,x,y)$ satisfy optimal annealed estimates which are $L^2$ and $L^1$, respectively, in probability, i.e., they obtained bounds on $\langle |{\nabla }_{x}G(t,x,y){{|}^2\rangle }^{1/2}$ and $\langle \left|{\nabla }_x{\nabla }_{y}G(t,x,y)\right|\rangle$. In particular, the elliptic Green’s function $G(x,y)$ satisfies optimal annealed bounds. In their recent work, the authors...
