    We study the large time behaviour of the reaction-diffsuion equation tu=Δu+f(u)\partial_t u=\Delta u +f(u) in spatial dimension NN, when the nonlinear term is bistable and the initial datum is compactly supported. We prove the existence of a Lipschitz function ss^\infty of the unit sphere, such that u(t,x)u(t,x) converges uniformly in RN\mathbb{R}^N, as tt goes to infinity, to Uc(xct+N1clnt+s(xx))U_{c_*}\bigg(|x|-c_*t + \frac{N-1}{c_*} \mathrm{ln}t + s^\infty\Big(\frac{x}{|x|}\Big)\bigg), where UcU_{c*} is the unique 1D travelling profile. This extends earlier results that identified the locations of the level sets of the solutions with ot+(t)o_{t\to+\infty}(t) precision, or identified precisely the level sets locations for almost radial initial data

    Global Existence and Long-Time Asymptotics for Rotating Fluids in a 3D Layer

    The Navier-Stokes-Coriolis system is a simple model for rotating fluids, which allows to study the influence of the Coriolis force on the dynamics of three-dimensional flows. In this paper, we consider the NSC system in an infinite three-dimensional layer delimited by two horizontal planes, with periodic boundary conditions in the vertical direction. If the angular velocity parameter is sufficiently large, depending on the initial data, we prove the existence of global, infinite-energy solutions with nonzero circulation number. We also show that these solutions converge toward two-dimensional Lamb-Oseen vortices as time goes to infinity.Comment: 26 pages, no figur

    Sharp large time behaviour in n-dimensional Fisher-KPP equations

    We study the large time behaviour of the Fisher-KPP equation ∂tu = ∆u+u−u2 in spatial dimension N, when the initial datum is compactly supported. We prove the existence of a Lipschitz function s∞ of the unit sphere, such that u(t, x) approaches, as t goes to infinity, the function Uc∗ ( |x| − c∗t + Nc+∗2 lnt + s∞(|xx| )) , where Uc∗ is the 1D travelling front with minimal speed c∗ = 2. This extends an earlier result of Gärtner

    Travelling graphs for the forced mean curvature motion in an arbitrary space dimension

    Get PDF
    We construct travelling wave graphs of the form z=ct+ϕ(x)z=-ct+\phi(x), ϕ:xRN1ϕ(x)R\phi: x \in \mathbb{R}^{N-1} \mapsto \phi(x)\in \mathbb{R}, N2N \geq 2, solutions to the NN-dimensional forced mean curvature motion Vn=c0+κV_n=-c_0+\kappa (cc0c\geq c_0) with prescribed asymptotics. For any 1-homogeneous function ϕ\phi_{\infty}, viscosity solution to the eikonal equation Dϕ=(c/c0)21|D\phi_{\infty}|=\sqrt{(c/c_0)^2-1}, we exhibit a smooth concave solution to the forced mean curvature motion whose asymptotics is driven by ϕ\phi_{\infty}. We also describe ϕ\phi_{\infty} in terms of a probability measure on SN2\mathbb{S}^{N-2}.Comment: 36 pages, 6 figure
