Finite time extinction in nonlinear diffusion equations (2004)
Journal Article
Beardmore, R. E., Peplow, A. T., & Laister, R. (2004). Finite time extinction in nonlinear diffusion equations. Applied Mathematics Letters, 17(5), 561-567. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0893-9659%2804%2990126-7

We consider a class of degenerate diffusion equations where the nonlinearity is assumed to be singular (non-Lipschitz) at zero. It is shown that solutions with compactly supported initial data become identically zero in finite time. Such extinction f... Read More about Finite time extinction in nonlinear diffusion equations.

Sequential and continuum bifurcations in degenerate elliptic equations (2004)
Journal Article
Beardmore, R. E., & Laister, R. (2004). Sequential and continuum bifurcations in degenerate elliptic equations. Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 132(01), 165-174. https://doi.org/10.1090/S0002-9939-03-06979-X

We examine the bifurcations to positive and sign-changing solutions of degenerate elliptic equations. In the problems we study, which do not represent Fredholm operators, we show that there is a critical parameter value at which an infinity of bifurc...

Trajectories of a DAE near a pseudo-equilibrium (2004)
Journal Article
Beardmore, R. E., Laister, R., & Peplow, A. (2004). Trajectories of a DAE near a pseudo-equilibrium. Nonlinearity, 17(1), 253-279. https://doi.org/10.1088/0951-7715/17/1/015

We consider a class of differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) defined by analytic nonlinearities and study its singular solutions. The main assumption used is that the linearization of the DAE represents a Kronecker index-2 matrix pencil and that th... Read More about Trajectories of a DAE near a pseudo-equilibrium.
