We establish a result concerning the so-called Lagrangian controllability of the Euler equation for incompressible perfect fluids in dimension 3. More precisely we consider a connected bounded domain of R^3 and two smooth contractible sets…

In this article, we study word equations in free semigroups and the conjecture that the existence of infinitely many solutions entails the existence of solutions with arbitrarily large exponent of periodicity. We examine this question in…

We prove existence and multiplicity of periodic motions for the forced 2-body problem under conditions of topological character. In the different cases, the lower bounds obtained for the number of solutions are related to the winding number…

We prove the existence of infinitely many solutions to an elliptic problem by borrowing the techniques from algebraic topology. The solution(s) thus obtained will also be proved to be bounded.

Here we investigate the Cauchy problem for the inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes equations in the whole $n$-dimensional space. Under some smallness assumption on the data, we show the existence of global-in-time unique solutions in a critical…

We introduce many families of explicit solutions to the three dimensional incompressible Euler equations for nonviscous fluid flows using the Lagrangian framework. Almost no exact Lagrangian solutions exist in the literature prior to this…

We prove the Oppenheim conjecture for indefinite ternary diagonal forms of the type $x^{2}+y^{2} -\alpha z^{2}$ where $ \alpha $ is an irrational number. Our method is explicit in the sense that we are able to construct a solution to the…

Bernard [3] showed that a Ma\~n\'e generic convex Hamiltonian has only non-degenerate periodic orbits on a given energy level. We show that one can use this result to prove that for a generic potential the prime periodic orbits of fixed…

The Conley theory has a tool to guarantee the existence of periodic trajectories in isolating neighborhoods of semi-dynamical systems. We prove that the positive trajectories generated by a piecewise-smooth vector field $Z=(X, Y)$ defined…

We consider the incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain in three space dimensions. Recently, the first two authors proved Onsager's conjecture for bounded domains, i.e., that the energy of a solution to these equations is…

We give a new proof of the strong Arnold conjecture for $1$-periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems on tori, that was first shown by C. Conley and E. Zehnder in 1983. Our proof uses other methods and is shorter than the previous one. We…

This paper explores the asymptotic properties of non-autonomous Lagrangian systems, assuming that the associated Tonelli Lagrangian converges to a time-periodic function. Specifically, given a continuous initial condition, we provide a…

A novel semi-Lagrangian method is introduced to solve numerically the Euler equation for ideal incompressible flow in arbitrary space dimension. It exploits the time-analyticity of fluid particle trajectories and requires, in principle,…

The objective of this paper is to find some inequalities satisfied by periodical solutions of multi-time Hamilton systems, when the Hamiltonian is convex. To our knowledge, this subject of first-order field theory is still open. Section 1…

We prove the existence and multiplicity of periodic solutions of bouncing type for a second-order differential equation with a weak repulsive singularity. Such solutions can be catalogued according to the minimal period and the number of…

Consider the set of all natural numbers that are co-prime to primes less than or equal to a given prime. Then given a consecutive pair of numbers in that set with an arbitrary even gap, we prove there exists an unbounded number of actual…

For any $\epsilon >0$ we show the existence of continuous periodic weak solutions $v$ of the Euler equations which do not conserve the kinetic energy and belong to the space $L^1_t (C_x^{\frac{1}{3}-\epsilon})$, namely $x\mapsto v (x,t)$ is…

It was claimed recently that a low order post-Newtonian (PN) Lagrangian formulation, which corresponds to the Euler-Lagrange equations up to an infinite PN order, can be identical to a PN Hamiltonian formulation at the infinite order from a…
