We study a coupled system of two parabolic equations in one space dimension. This system is singular because of the presence of one term with the inverse of the gradient of the solution. Our system describes an approximate model of the dynamics of dislocation densities in a bounded channel submitted to an exterior applied stress. The system of equations is written on a bounded interval with Dir...

Milner and Patton (J. Comput. Appl. Math., in press) introduced earlier a new approach to modeling host–parasite dynamics through a convection–diffusion partial differential equation, which uses the parasite density as a continuous structure variable. A motivation for the model was presented there, as well as results from numerical simulations and comparisons with those from other models. Howev...

In this paper, we investigate the existence of positive solutions for a second-order multipoint p-Laplacian impulsive boundary value problem on time scales. Using a new fixed point theorem in a cone, sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions are established. An illustrative example is also presented.

This paper investigates the existence and uniqueness of solutions to rst-order nonlinear boundary value problems (BVPs) involving fuzzy dif- ferential equations and two-point boundary conditions. Some sucient condi- tions are presented that guarantee the existence and uniqueness of solutions under the approach of Hukuhara dierentiability.

A proof of existence of stationary dark soliton solutions of the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a periodic potential is given. It is based on the interpretation of the dark soliton as a heteroclinic on the Poincaré map.

We consider the cubic and quintic Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) hierarchies in d ≥ 1 dimensions, for focusing and defocusing interactions. We present a new proof of existence of solutions that does not require the a priori bound on the spacetime norm, which was introduced in the work of Klainerman and Machedon, [19], and used in our earlier work, [6].

Abstract. The approach, referred to as ”monodromy transform”, provides some general base for solution of all known integrable space time symmetry reductions of Einstein equations for the case of pure vacuum gravitational fields, in the presence of gravitationally interacting massless fields, as well as for some string theory induced gravity models. In this communication we present the key point...

This paper gives a new and short proof of existence and uniqueness of the Polubarinova-Galin equation. The existence proof is an application of the main theorem in Lin [2]. Furthermore, we can conclude that every strong solution can be approximated by many strong polynomial solutions locally in time.
