Global solutions and quenching to a class of quasilinear parabolic equations.
We consider the damped wave equation on the whole real line, where is a bistable potential. This equation has travelling front solutions of the form which describe a moving interface between two different steady states of the system, one of which being the global minimum of . We show that, if the initial data are sufficiently close to the profile of a front for large , the solution of the damped wave equation converges uniformly on to a travelling front as . The proof of this global stability...
We consider the model, proposed by Dawidowicz and Zalasiński, describing the interactions between the heterotrophic and autotrophic organisms coexisting in a terrestrial environment with available oxygen. We modify this model by assuming intraspecific competition between heterotrophic organisms. Moreover, we introduce a diffusion of both types of organisms and oxygen. The basic properties of the extended model are examined and illustrated by numerical simulations.
We derive estimates for various quantities which are of interest in the analysis of the Ginzburg-Landau equation, and which we bound in terms of the -energy and the parameter . These estimates are local in nature, and in particular independent of any boundary condition. Most of them improve and extend earlier results on the subject.
We analyse the influence of diffusion and space distribution of cells in a simple model of interactions between an activated immune system and malignant gliomas, among which the most aggressive one is GBM Glioblastoma Multiforme. It turns out that diffusion cannot affect stability of spatially homogeneous steady states. This suggests that there are two possible outcomes-the solution is either attracted by the positive steady state or by the semitrivial one. The semitrivial steady state describes...
Propagation of polymerization fronts with liquid monomer and liquid polymer is considered and the influence of vibrations on critical conditions of convective instability is studied. The model includes the heat equation, the equation for the concentration and the Navier-Stokes equations considered under the Boussinesq approximation. Linear stability analysis of the problem is fulfilled, and the convective instability boundary is found depending on...
The aim of this paper is to study the effect of vibrations on convective instability of reaction fronts in porous media. The model contains reaction-diffusion equations coupled with the Darcy equation. Linear stability analysis is carried out and the convective instability boundary is found. The results are compared with direct numerical simulations.
The present paper is devoted to study the behaviour at infinity of some solutions of non autonomous and non homogeneous second order linear systems in semi-infinite strips.
In this work we study the generalized Boussinesq equation with a dissipation term. We show that, under suitable conditions, a global solution for the initial value problem exists. In addition, we derive sufficient conditions for the blow-up of the solution to the problem. Furthermore, the instability of the stationary solutions of this equation is established.
We consider a reaction-diffusion system of activator-inhibitor type which is subject to Turing's diffusion-driven instability. It is shown that unilateral obstacles of various type for the inhibitor, modeled by variational inequalities, lead to instability of the trivial solution in a parameter domain where it would be stable otherwise. The result is based on a previous joint work with I.-S. Kim, but a refinement of the underlying theoretical tool is developed. Moreover, a different regime of parameters...
We investigate the existence, uniqueness and polynomial stability of the weighted pseudo almost automorphic solutions to a class of linear and semilinear parabolic evolution equations. The necessary tools here are interpolation spaces and interpolation theorems which help to prove the boundedness of solution operators in appropriate spaces for linear equations. Then for the semilinear equations the fixed point arguments are used to obtain the existence and stability of the weighted pseudo almost...
