The Cahn--Hilliard equation with anisotropic energy contributions frequently appears in many physical systems. Systematic analytical results for the case with the relevant logarithmic free energy have been missing so far. We close this gap and show existence, uniqueness, regularity, and separation properties of weak solutions to the anisotropic Cahn--Hilliard equation with logarithmic free energy. Since firstly, the equation becomes highly non-linear, and secondly, the relevant anisotropies are non-smooth, the analysis becomes quite involved. In particular, new regularity results for quasilinear elliptic equations of second order need to be shown.

In this paper, a class of nonlocal fractional Dirichlet problems is studied. By using a variational principle due to Ricceri (whose original version was given in J. Comput. Appl. Math. 113 (2000), 401–410), the existence of infinitely many weak solutions for these problems is established by requiring that the nonlinear term begin{document}$ f $end{document} has a suitable oscillating behaviour either at the origin or at infinity.

We consider a phase-field model which describes the interactions between the blood flow and the thrombus. The latter is supposed to be a viscoelastic material. The potential describing the cohesive energy of the mixture is assumed to be of Flory-Huggins type (i.e. logarithmic). This ensures the boundedness from below of the dissipation energy. In the two dimensional case, we prove the local (in time) existence and uniqueness of a strong solution, provided that the two viscosities of the pure fluid phases are close enough. We also show that the order parameter remains strictly separated from the pure phases if it is so at the initial time.

Fluid diffusion in unsaturated porous media manifests strong hysteresis effects due to surface tension on the liquid-gas interface. We describe hysteresis in the pressure-saturation relation by means of the Preisach operator, which makes the resulting evolutionary PDE strongly degenerate. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a strong global solution in arbitrary space dimension using a special weak convexity concept.

In this paper, we first prove the stability equivalence between a linear autonomous and cooperative functional differential equation (FDE) and its associated autonomous and cooperative system without time delay. Then we present the theory of basic reproduction number $mathcal{R}_0$ for general autonomous FDEs. As an illustrative example, we also establish the threshold dynamics for a time-delayed population model of black-legged ticks in terms of $mathcal{R}_0$.

In [2] we established an existence theorem on bounded/periodic solutions for a class of scalar delay differential equations of the form$ begin{equation} frac{du}{dt} = f(t,u(t), u(t-r_1), cdots, u(t-r_n)), qquad t in mathbb R, ;;;;;(1)end{equation} $under the assumptions that the constant delays $ r_k>0 $, $ k = 1, cdots, n $, are 'small' and $ f $ satisfies a one-sided Lipschitz condition on the variables $ u(t), u(t-r_1), cdots, u(t-r_n) $. In this paper, we improve this result in the case that $ f $ is strictly increasing in some variables $ u(t-r_k) $ and obtain a new result that allows larger values of $ r_k $ with which the equation (1) still has a bounded/periodic solution. We illustrate this result via some population models.
