On a spectral problem with integral conditions |
We consider an ordinary differential operator with a spectral parameter and integral boundary conditions.
An a priori estimate of solutions for sufficiently large values of the parameter is obtained.
Also Fredholm solvability, sectorial structure of the spectrum and its discreteness are proved.

The singularity in the case of T3-Gowdy |
Due to the complexity of Einstein's equations, spacetimes
satisfying symmetry conditions are often considered. The simplest
spatially inhomogeneous cosmological solutions arise as a result of
imposing the existence of a 2-dimensional group of isometries. The Gowdy
class of spacetimes fall into this category. In the talk, a brief
definition of this class will be given. However, the main focus will be on
the asymptotics in the direction of the singularity; a description of the
behaviour for a generic set of initial data as well as an outline of some
of the arguments used to prove the results will be given.

Mechanisms of semi-strong interaction in multiscale reaction diffusion systems |
In spatial multiscale reaction diffusion system where some
diffusion lengths are much shorter than the rest, interfaces can form
where only the components that diffuse on the short scale localize. The
interaction between such interfaces is called semi-strong as it is
driven by the nonlocalized components. Cases where the interface motion
is of the order of the square of the short diffusion lengths (second
order) have been studied over the past decade. By formal expansions and
numerical studies we show that the interaction strength can also be of
the same order as the short diffusion length (first order). These
mechanisms are illustrated in the Schnakenberg model and investigate
interaction manifolds and their stability. Taking a model independent
point of view, starting only from a dichotomy in diffusion lengths,
characteristic equations of motion of interfaces for first and second
order semi-strong interaction can be derived. For first order pulse
interaction with a single long diffusion length and under certain
natural assumptions several explicit Lyapunov-functionals such as the
largest interpulse distance are found. This is partly joint work with J.
Ehrt and M. Wolfrum (WIAS, Berlin).

Reaction-diffusion equations with nonlinear boundary conditions with delays |
We will present some techniques used to pose
reaction-diffusion equations in negative fractional power spaces,
following Dan Henry's book, which can be applied to nonlinear Neumann
boundary conditions. This will then be adapted to study the same
equations but with discrete delays in the reaction term. Finally, we
present a Hopf bifurcation result.

pikes - nonlocal component of the generalized Mixmaster attractor |
In general relativity, dynamics near spacelike singularities
was described by chaotic Mixmaster/BKL oscillation. Spacetimes with two
commuting Killing vector fields exhibit a new phenomenon, namely spikes,
which are sub-horizon inhomogeneous structures whose dynamics differs
from BKL dynamics.
I will present some background for Mixmaster oscillation, the generation
of the explicit spike solution using the solution-generating
transformation by Rendall and Weaver, and numerical simulations of
spacetimes with two commuting Killing vector fields and
solution-matching with the explicit spike solution. The numerical
results suggest that the Mixmaster attractor should be generalized to
include the spikes as a nonlocal component.
The last part of this work was done in collaboration with Lars
Andersson, David Garfinkle and Frans Pretorius.
