In this article, we introduce and study a new nonlocal hyperbolic model for the formation and movement of animal aggregations. We assume that the nonlocal attractive, repulsive, and alignment interactions between individuals can influence both the speed and the turning rates of group members. We use analytical and numerical techniques to investigate the effect of these nonlocal interactions on ...

We consider the 1D nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) with focusing point nonlinearity, (0.1) i∂tψ + ∂ 2 xψ + δ|ψ|p−1ψ = 0, where δ = δ(x) is the delta function supported at the origin. In the L supercritical setting p > 3, we construct self-similar blow-up solutions belonging to the energy space Lx ∩Ḣ x. This is reduced to finding outgoing solutions of a certain stationary profile equation. ...

For some deterministic nonlinear PDEs on the torus whose solutions may blow up in finite time, we show that, under suitable conditions term, blow-up is delayed by multiplicative noise of transport type a certain scaling limit. The main result applied to 3D Keller–Segel, Fisher–KPP, and 2D Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equations, yielding long-time existence for large initial data with high probability.

We study the asymptotic behavior of a semidiscrete numerical approximation for a pair of heat equations ut = ∆u, vt = ∆v in Ω × (0, T ); fully coupled by the boundary conditions ∂u ∂η = up11vp12 , ∂v ∂η = up21vp22 on ∂Ω× (0, T ), where Ω is a bounded smooth domain in Rd. We focus in the existence or not of non-simultaneous blow-up for a semidiscrete approximation (U, V ). We prove that if U blo...

In this paper, we study the solution of an initial boundary value problem for a quasilinear parabolic equation with a nonlinear boundary condition. We first show that any positive solution blows up in finite time. For a monotone solution, we have either the single blow-up point on the boundary, or blow-up on the whole domain, depending on the parameter range. Then, in the single blow-up point c...
