We discuss existence and uniqueness of solutions for a one-dimensional parabolic evolution equation with a free boundary. This problem was introduced by Lasry and Lions as description of the dynamical formation of the price of a trading good. Short time existence and uniqueness is established by a contraction argument. Then we discuss the issue of global-in-time-extension of the local solution which is closely related to the regularity of the free boundary. We also present numerical results.

In this paper, we derived a model which describes the swelling dynamics of a gel and study the system in one-dimensional geometry with a free boundary. The governing equations are hyperbolic with a weakly dissipative source. Using a mass-Lagrangian formulation, the free boundary is transformed into a fixed boundary. We prove the existence of long-time C1-solutions to the transformed fixed boundary problem.

We study a hyperbolic (telegrapher's equation) free boundary problem describing the pressure-driven channel flow of a Bingham-type fluid whose constitutive model was derived in the work of Fusi and Farina (2011). The free boundary is the surface that separates the inner core (where the velocity is uniform) from the external layer where the fluid behaves as an upper convected Maxwell fluid. We present a procedure to obtain an explicit representation formula for the solution. We then exploit such a representation to write the free boundary equation in terms of the initial and boundary data only. We also perform an asymptotic expansion in terms of a parameter tied to the rheological properties of the Maxwell fluid. Explicit formulas of the solutions for the various order of approximation are provided.

We study the local-in-time existence and uniqueness of the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear wave equation [Formula: see text], which is called the second sound equation. Assuming that u(0, x) = φ ≥ A > 0, φ ∈ C1, and ∂xφ ∈ Hs, we establish the uniqueness of solutions without restriction on their amplitude.

In this paper, we study the three-dimensional Ericksen–Leslie equations for the nematodynamics of liquid crystals. We prove short time existence and uniqueness of strong solutions for the initial value problem for the periodic case and in bounded domains with both Dirichlet- and Neumann-type boundary conditions.
