The Cauchy problem for parabolic differential-difference equations:
integral representations of solutions and their long-time behavior |
Parabolic equations (including singular ones) containing
translation (generalized translation) operators
acting with respect to spatial variables are considered. Integral
representations of their classical solutions are found and
asymptotic closeness (stabilization) theorems are proved for their solutions.
It turns out that there are principally new effects of the long-time
behavior of the above solutions caused by the non-local nature of the equation.
Moreover, those effects hold even in the case
where only low-order terms of the equation are non-local.

Fronts and bumps in spatially extended Kuramoto networks |
|
We consider moving fronts and stationary “bumps” in networks of non-locally coupled phase oscillators.
Fronts connect regions of high local synchrony with regions of complete asynchrony,
while bumps consist of spatially-localised regions of partially-synchronous oscillators surrounded by complete asynchrony.
Using the Ott-Antonsen ansatz we derive non-local differential equations which describe the network dynamics in the continuum limit.
Front and bump solutions of these equations are studied by either “freezing” them
in a travelling coordinate frame or analysing them as homoclinic or heteroclinic orbits.
Numerical continuation is used to determine parameter regions in which such solutions exist and are stable.

Efficient Morse Decomposition of Vector Fields |
|
Traditional vector field topology relies on the ability to accurately compute trajectories, which is difficult to achieve due to noise and error. Morse decomposition addresses this issue. However, computing Morse decomposition given a simulation data set can be challenging due to the complexity in both the flows and the underlying domains. In this talk I will discuss how to effectively compute Morse decomposition in a hierarchical fashion. The results have been applied to a number of simulation data sets.

Two-Phase Parabolic Obstacle Problems: L∞-estimates for Derivatives of Solutions |
Consider the two-phase parabolic obstacle problem with non-trivial Dirichlet condition
| Δu − ∂tu |
= |
λ+χ{u>0}
− λ−χ{u<0}
|
in Q=Ω×(0;T), |
| u |
= |
φ |
on ∂pQ. |
Here T<+∞, Ω ⊂ Rn is a given domain, ∂pQ denotes the parabolic boundary of Q, and λ± are non-negative constants satisfying λ++λ−>0. The problem arises as limiting case in the model of temperature control through the interior.
In this talk we discuss the L∞-estimates for the second-order space derivatives D2u near the parabolic boundary ∂pQ. Observe that the case of general Dirichlet data cannot be reduced to zero ones due to non-linearity and discontinuity at u=0 of the right-hand side of the first equation.
The talk is based on works in collaboration with Nina Uraltseva.

Two-Phase Parabolic Obstacle Problem:
Regularity Properties of the Free Boundary |
|
In this talk we describe the methods, developed in the last decade, for studying the regularity of the free boundary in the vicinity of branch points. These methods are based on the use of various monotonicity formulas, blow-up technique and some observations of geometric nature. |
