The Swift-Hohenberg equation on conic manifolds
  We consider the Swift-Hohenberg equation on manifolds with conical singularities and show existence, uniqueness and maximal regularity of the short time solution in terms of Mellin-Sobolev spaces. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition so that the above solution exists for all times. Space asymptotic expansion of the solution near the singularity is also provided and its relation to the local geometry is shown. The same problem is considered on closed manifolds and similar results are obtained by using the above singular analysis theory.
