چکیده

In this paper we prove an asymptotic estimate, up to the second order included, on the behaviour of the one-dimensional Allen-Cahn’s action functionals, around a periodic function with bounded variation and taking values in {±1}. The leading term of this estimate justifies and confirms, from a variational point of view, the results of Fusco-Hale [10] and Carr-Pego [7] on the exponentially slow motion of metastable patterns coexisting at the transition temperature.

Higher Multiplicity in the One-Dimensional Allen-Cahn Action Functional

We prove the Γ-convergence of the one-dimensional Allen-Cahn action functional in the sharp-interface limit. In previous work, a good lower bound was developed under the assumption of single multiplicity, but the bound deteriorated in the case of higher multiplicity interfaces. We develop an improved bound by working directly with the limiting energy measures.

A Two-phase Problem with a Lower-dimensional Free Boundary

For a bounded domain D ⊂ Rn, we study minimizers of the energy functional ∫ D |∇u| dx+ ∫ D∩(Rn−1×{0}) λχ{u>0} + λ χ{u<0} dHn−1, without any sign restriction on the function u. One of the main result states that the free boundaries Γ = ∂{u(·, 0) > 0} and Γ− = ∂{u(·, 0) < 0} never touch. Moreover, using Alexandrov-type reflection technique, we can show that in dimension n = 3 the free boundaries ...

On the Free Boundary Problem of Three-dimensional Compressible Euler Equations in Physical Vacuum

In this paper, we establish a priori estimates for the three-dimensional compressible Euler equations with moving physical vacuum boundary, the γ-gas law equation of state for γ = 2 and the general initial density ρ0 ∈ H6(Ω). Because of the degeneracy of the initial density, we investigate the estimates of the horizontal spatial and time derivatives and then obtain the estimates of the normal o...

Essential norm estimates of generalized weighted composition operators into weighted type spaces

Weighted composition operators appear in the study of dynamical systems and also in characterizing isometries of some classes of Banach spaces. One of the most important generalizations of weighted composition operators, are generalized weighted composition operators which in special cases of their inducing functions give different types of well-known operators like: weighted composition operat...

Convergence results and sharp estimates for the voter model interfaces

We study the evolution of the interface for the one-dimensional voter model. We show that if the random walk kernel associated with the voter model has finite γth moment for some γ > 3, then the evolution of the interface boundaries converge weakly to a Brownian motion under diffusive scaling. This extends recent work of Newman, Ravishankar and Sun. Our result is optimal in the sense that finit...
