Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

We give a simple proof that the solution of the Allen-Cahn equation converges to Brakke's motion by mean curvature, by utilizing the recent results of Röger and Schätzle in space dimension 2 and 3.

When you shine a flashlight into a glass of water, the beam bends. That simple observation, familiar since ancient times, ...

I wish Angry Birds had been around when I was teaching high school physics. Please don’t think of the game as a hate crime against hogs, or an avian anger management program—instead, think of it as a ...
