This talk gives a brief review of some recent progress in the asymptotic analysis of short pulse solutions of nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations. This includes descriptions on the scales of geometric optics and diffractive geometric optics, and also studies of special situations where pulses passing through focal points can be analysed.

Nonlinear nonlocal parabolic equations modeling the evolution of density of mutually interacting particles are considered. The inertial type nonlinearity is quadratic and nonlocal while the diffusive term, also nonlocal, is anomalous and fractal, i.e., represented by a fractional power of the Laplacian. Conditions for global in time existence versus finite time blow-up are studied. Self-similar solutions are constructed for certain homogeneous initial data. Monte Carlo approximation schemes by interacting...

This is a survey of results on the long-time behavior of solutions to phase-field models and related problems. The central idea is based on several non-standard applications of the Łojasiewicz-Simon theory.

The parabolic equations driven by linearly multiplicative Gaussian noise are stabilizable in probability by linear feedback controllers with support in a suitably chosen open subset of the domain. This procedure extends to Navier − Stokes equations with multiplicative noise. The exact controllability is also discussed.

In this paper, we discuss some generalized stability of solutions to a class of nonlinear impulsive evolution equations in the certain piecewise essentially bounded functions space. Firstly, stabilization of solutions to nonlinear impulsive evolution equations are studied by means of fixed point methods at an appropriate decay rate. Secondly, stable manifolds for the associated singular perturbation problems with impulses are compared with each other. Finally, an example on initial boundary value...

We consider a phase field system based on the Maxwell Cattaneo heat conduction law, with a logarithmic nonlinearity, associated with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In particular, we prove, in one and two space dimensions, the existence of a solution which is strictly separated from the singularities of the nonlinear term and that the problem possesses a finite-dimensional global attractor in terms of exponential attractors.

We study the realization $A$ of the operator $\mathcal{A}=\frac{1}{2}\mathrm{△}-(DU,D\cdot )$ in $L^2\left(\mathrm{\Omega },\mu \right)$, where $\mathrm{\Omega }$ is a possibly unbounded convex open set in ${\mathbb{R}}^N$, $U$ is a convex unbounded function such that ${lim}_{x\to \partial \mathrm{\Omega },x\in \mathrm{\Omega }}U\left(x\right)=+\mathrm{\infty }$ and ${lim}_{\left|x\right|\to +\mathrm{\infty },x\in \mathrm{\Omega }}U\left(x\right)=+\mathrm{\infty }$, $DU\left(x\right)$ is the element with minimal norm in the subdifferential of $U$ at $x$, and $\mu \left(dx\right)=c\exp \left(-2U\left(x\right)\right)dx$ is a probability measure, infinitesimally invariant for $\mathcal{A}$. We show that $A$, with domain $D\left(A\right)=\left\{u\in H^2\left(\mathrm{\Omega },\mu \right):\left(DU,Du\right)\in L^2\left(\mathrm{\Omega },\mu \right)\right\}$ is a dissipative self-adjoint operator in $L^2\left(\mathrm{\Omega },\mu \right)$. Note that the functions in the domain of $A$ do not satisfy any particular boundary condition. Log-Sobolev and Poincaré inequalities allow...
