A striking resemblance between the normal-field instability in ferromagnetic fluids and the interfacial mode of the thermocapillary instability in viscous fluids is presented. A nonlinear evolution equation describing the dynamics of the free surface for a ferrofluid layer subject to a uniform normal magnetic field is derived, and compared to that for a thin viscous layer heated from below. Their similarity predicts the possibility of mutual nonlinear stability control.

A noncommutative negative order AKNS (NC-AKNS(-1)) equation is studied. To show the integrability of the system, we present explicitly the underlying integrable structure such as Lax pair, zero-curvature condition, an infinite sequence of conserved densities, Darboux transformation (DT) and quasideterminant soliton solutions. Moreover, the NC-AKNS(-1) equation is compared with its commutative counterpart not only on the level of nonlinear evolution equation but also for the explicit solutions.

Abstract Exact solutions of a new (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equation are studied. Through the Hirota bilinear method, the test function method and the improved tanh-coth and tah-cot method, with the assisstance of symbolic operations, one can obtain the lump solutions, multi lump solutions and more soliton solutions. Finally, by determining different parameters, we draw the three-dimensional plots and density plots at different times.

We investigate the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear evolution equation, formulated in an abstract Lebesgue space, as a generalization of various Boltzmann kinetic models. Our main result provides sufficient conditions for the existence, uniqueness, and positivity of global in time solutions. The analysis extends nontrivially monotonicity methods, originally developed in the context of the existence theory for the classical Boltzmann equation in L1. Our application examples are Smoluchowski's coagulation equation, a Povzner-like equation with dissipative collisions, and a Boltzmann model with chemical reactions, for which we obtain a unitary existence theory, with improved results, compared to the literature.

This paper is concerned with the mathematical study of a nonlinear system modelling an irreversible phase change problem. Uniqueness of the solution is proved using the accretivity of the system in (L1)2. Expressing one of the two unknowns as an explicit functional of the other reduces the system to a single nonlinear evolution equation and ultimately leads to an existence theorem.In this paper the existence and uniqueness of the solution of a nonlinear system modelling some irreversible phase changes is established.
