    Multidimensional entire solutions for an elliptic system modelling phase separation

    No full text
    For the system of semilinear elliptic equations ΔVi = ViΣ j≠iJ≠iVj2 Vi> 0 in RN, we devise a new method to construct entire solutions. The method extends the existence results already available in the literature, which are concerned with the 2-dimensional case, also to higher dimensions N ≥ 3. In particular, we provide an explicit relation between orthogonal symmetry subgroups, optimal partition problems of the sphere, the existence of solutions and their asymptotic growth. This is achieved by means of new asymptotic estimates for competing systems and new sharp versions for monotonicity formulae of Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman type

    On phase separation in systems of coupled elliptic equations: Asymptotic analysis and geometric aspects

    No full text
    We consider a family of positive solutions to the system of k components −Δui,β=f(x,ui,β)−βui,β∑j≠iaijuj,β2in Ω, where Ω⊂RN with N≥2. It is known that uniform bounds in L∞ of uβ imply convergence of the densities to a segregated configuration, as the competition parameter β diverges to +∞. In this paper we establish sharp quantitative point-wise estimates for the densities around the interface between different components, and we characterize the asymptotic profile of uβ in terms of entire solutions to the limit system ΔUi=Ui∑j≠iaijUj2. Moreover, we develop a uniform-in-β regularity theory for the interfaces

    Entire solutions with exponential growth for an elliptic system modelling phase separation

    No full text
    We prove the existence of entire solutions with exponential growth for the semilinear elliptic system -Δu = -uv2 in RN, -Δv = -u2v in RN,u,u > 0, for every N ≥ 2. Our construction is based on an approximation procedure, whose convergence is ensured by suitable Almgren-type monotonicity formulae. The construction of the resulting solutions is extended to systems with k components, for every k ≥ 2; in this case, the proof is much more involved and is achieved by approximation of solutions with exponential growth by means of solutions with algebraic growth of increasing degree, translating the limit lim d→+∞ [(1+z/d)]= ex sin y in the present setting. © 2014 IOP Publishing Ltd & London Mathematical Society

    Uniform Bounds for Strongly Competing Systems: The Optimal Lipschitz Case

    No full text
    For a class of systems of semi-linear elliptic equations, including (Formula presented.), for p = 2 (variational-type interaction) or p = 1 (symmetric-type interaction), we prove that uniform L∞ boundedness of the solutions implies uniform boundedness of their Lipschitz norm as β→+∞, lthat is, in the limit of strong competition. This extends known quasi-optimal regularity results and covers the optimal case for this class of problems. The proofs rest on monotonicity formulae of Alt–Caffarelli–Friedman and Almgren type in the variational setting, and on the Caffarelli–Jerison–Kenig almost monotonicity formula in the symmetric one

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2013.Com a intenção de delinear o modo pelo qual o escritor italiano Alessandro Baricco se inseriu no sistema literário brasileiro e os caminhos percorridos pelos seus livros traduzidos, esta dissertação dá voz às experiências tradutórias de seus tradutores. A inserção de Bariccono Brasil tem seu início em 1997, através de uma proposição da Profa. Dra. Roberta Barni à editora Iluminuras da tradução de Oceano Mare. A partir daí, outras sete obras foram publicadas no Brasil, sendo três delas traduzidas por Roberta Barni e as outras quatro por quatro tradutores diferentes. De um lado, considera-se o tradutor como figura principal namediação entre culturas, e, de outro, se analisa a realidade desta figuradentro do sistema literário, sua invisibilidade, seus limites e o exercíciode sua profissão. A pesquisa conta, ainda, com críticas e resenhas referentes ao autor italiano publicadas em jornais consagrados no Brasil, considerando estas como parte constituinte da imagem de Baricco refletida em território nacional. Abstract : Intending to delineate the way the Italian writer Alessandro Baricco has been inserted in the Brazilian literary system and the paths his translated books have followed, this thesis gives voice to the translating experiences of his translators. Baricco's insertion in Brazil began in 1997, through a personal project of Dr. Roberta Barni, with her translation of Oceano Mare. Since then, seven other of his works have been published in Brazil, three of which were translated by Roberta Barni and the other four by four different translators. On the one hand,the translator is considered as the main figure in mediation betweencultures and, on the other, this figure's reality is analyzed within theliterary system: its invisibility, its limits and its professional practice. Criticisms and reviews of this Italian author published in well established Brazilian newspapers are also considered, with the understanding that they are part of Baricco's image reflected here

    Hölder bounds and regularity of emerging free boundaries for strongly competing Schrödinger equations with nontrivial grouping Dedicated to Prof. Juan Luis Vázquez with deep admiration and respect

    We study interior regularity issues for systems of elliptic equations of the type -Δui=fi,β(x)-β∑j≠iaijui|ui|p-1|uj|p+1 set in domains Ω ⊂RN, for N≥1. The paper is devoted to the derivation of C0,α estimates that are uniform in the competition parameter β>0, as well as to the regularity of the limiting free-boundary problem obtained for β→+∞. The main novelty of the problem under consideration resides in the non-trivial grouping of the densities: in particular, we assume that the interaction parameters aij are only non-negative, and thus may vanish for specific couples (i,j). As a main consequence, in the limit β→+∞, densities do not segregate pairwise in general, but are grouped in classes which, in turn, form a mutually disjoint partition. Moreover, with respect to the literature, we consider more general forcing terms, sign-changing solutions, and an arbitrary p>0. In addition, we present a regularity theory of the emerging free-boundary, defined by the interface among different segregated groups. These equations are very common in the study of Bose-Einstein condensates and are of key importance for the analysis of optimal partition problems related to high order eigenvalues

    La maturità di Alessandro Fei del Barbiere, in bilico tra Maniera e Riforma

    No full text
    This article studies the mature career of the Florentine painter Alessandro Fei del Barbiere (1537-1592), beginning with the rediscovery of the 'Ascension' altarpiece formerly in the Albizi Chapel in the destroyed church of San Pier Maggiore, Florence. Studying this painting and others recorded in 1584 by the biographer Raffaello Borghini, such as the two altarpieces for Santa Maria delle Grazie and the Madonna dell'Umiltà in Pistoia, the author reconstructs a body of works showing how in the 1580s Fei gradually went beyond the archaic style of his apprenticeship - he had been trained by Ridolfo del Ghirlandaio and Pierfrancesco Foschi, but was also marked by the Maniera of Vasari - evolving towards naturalism in both mimesis and pictorial handling. In Florence, his development partly parallels that of Santi di Tito and his circle, but Fei was also influenced by a probable sojourn during the early part of that decade in Rome, where he could have been inspired by Girolamo Muziano and the painters working for Pope Gregory XIII. Among other proposals, the author suggests that the artist was responsible for decorating the chancel of Fiesole Cathedral (c. 1584-1589), which consisted of an altarpiece, only rarely discussed by scholars, and a cycle of frescoes hitherto attributed to Nicodemo Ferrucci

    Tra socialdemocrazie e Perestrojka. Le relazioni internazionali del Pci attraverso le carte di Alessandro Natta

    No full text
    This essay reconstructs the foreign policy of the Italian Communist Party during the four years of Alessandro Natta’s secretariat (1984-1988) through largely original archival documentation, from the Alessandro Natta Fonds of the Historical Archive of the Chamber of Deputies. Natta’s papers are also cross-referenced with those kept in the PCI Archive at the Gramsci Foundation. The author analyses the relationship that the PCI establishes with Gorbachev’s Perestroika, Deng’s China, and European social democracies during the last years of the Cold War
