Properties of solution diagrams for bistable equations

Pavel Drabek, Radim Hosek

Abstract:
Bistable equation serves as a simple model of phase transition at an appropriate critical temperature. The structure of its stationary solutions determines the dynamics of the evolutionary model. The norm of a stationary solution depending on the diffusion coefficient is usually depicted in a solution diagram. As far as we know, the qualitative properties of such diagram like continuity and differentiability have not been proved rigorously yet. The purpose of our paper is to fill in this gap.
