The multiphase Whitham modulation equations with $N$ phases have $2N$ characteristics which may be of hyperbolic or elliptic type. In this paper a nonlinear theory is developed for coalescence, where two characteristics change from hyperbolic to elliptic via collision. Firstly, a linear theory develops the structure of colliding characteristics involving the topological sign of characteristics and multiple Jordan chains, and secondly a nonlinear modulation theory is developed for transitions. The nonlinear theory shows that coalescing characteristics morph the Whitham equations into an asymptotically valid geometric form of the two-way Boussinesq equation. That is, coalescing characteristics generate dispersion, nonlinearity and complex wave fields. For illustration, the theory is applied to coalescing characteristics associated with the modulation of two-phase travelling-wave solutions of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations, highlighting how collisions can be identified and the relevant dispersive dynamics constructed.

The Whitham equation was proposed as a model for surface water waves that combines the quadratic flux nonlinearity $f(u) = tfrac{1}{2}u^2$ of the Korteweg-de Vries equation and the full linear dispersion relation $Omega(k) = sqrt{ktanh k}$ of uni-dir
ectional gravity water waves in suitably scaled variables. This paper proposes and analyzes a generalization of Whithams model to unidirectional nonlinear wave equations consisting of a general nonlinear flux function $f(u)$ and a general linear dispersion relation $Omega(k)$. Assuming the existence of periodic traveling wave solutions to this generalized Whitham equation, their slow modulations are studied in the context of Whitham modulation theory. A multiple scales calculation yields the modulation equations, a system of three conservation laws that describe the slow evolution of the periodic traveling waves wavenumber, amplitude, and mean. In the weakly nonlinear limit, explicit, simple criteria in terms of general $f(u)$ and $Omega(k)$ establishing the strict hyperbolicity and genuine nonlinearity of the modulation equations are determined. This result is interpreted as a generalized Lighthill-Whitham criterion for modulational instability.
A strong inspiration for studying perturbation theory for fractional evolution equations comes from the fact that they have proven to be useful tools in modeling many physical processes. In this paper, we study fractional evolution equations of order
$alphain (1,2]$ associated with the infinitesimal generator of an operator fractional cosine function generated by bounded time-dependent perturbations in a Banach space. We show that the abstract fractional Cauchy problem associated with the infinitesimal generator $A$ of a strongly continuous fractional cosine function remains uniformly well-posed under bounded time-dependent perturbation of $A$. We also provide some necessary special cases.
It is proved that modulation in time and space of periodic wave trains, of the defocussing nonlinear Schrodinger equation, can be approximated by solutions of the Whitham modulation equations, in the hyperbolic case, on a natural time scale. The erro
r estimates are based on existence, uniqueness, and energy arguments, in Sobolev spaces on the real line. An essential part of the proof is the inclusion of higher-order corrections to Whitham theory, and concomitant higher-order energy estimates.
Ion transport in biological tissues is crucial in the study of many biological and pathological problems. Some multi-cellular structures, like smooth muscles on the vessel walls, could be treated as periodic bi-domain structures, which consist of int
racellular space and extracellular space with semipermeable membranes in between. With the aid of two-scale homogenization theory, macro-scale models are proposed based on an electro-neutral (EN) microscale model with nonlinear interface conditions, where membranes are treated as combinations of capacitors and resistors. The connectivity of intracellular space is also taken into consideration. If the intracellular space is fully connected and forms a syncytium, then the macroscale model is a bidomain nonlinear coupled partial differential equations system. Otherwise, when the intracellular cells are not connected, the macroscale model for intracellular space is an ordinary differential system with source/sink terms from the connected extracellular space.
In this paper, we study the solutions to the energy-critical quadratic nonlinear Schrodinger system in ${dot H}^1times{dot H}^1$, where the sign of its potential energy can not be determined directly. If the initial data ${rm u}_0$ is radial or non-r
adial but satisfies the mass-resonance condition, and its energy is below that of the ground state, using the compactness/rigidity method, we give a complete classification of scattering versus blowing-up dichotomies depending on whether the kinetic energy of ${rm u}_0$ is below or above that of the ground state.
