    Most phenomena in Nature are nonlinear, and their modeling requires nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE). These are elusive objects, and solving them explicitly is almost always out of reach. We are then left to prove that solutions exist, are unique, satisfy specific properties that somehow characterize them, and then implement numerical methods to approximate those solutions. Existence shows we are modeling a real problem and uniqueness that it is meaningful. However, for the model to be useful and the numerical methods to converge, we need to understand the behavior of the
