Loewner driving functions encode simple curves in 2-dimensional simply connected domains by real-valued functions. We prove that the Loewner driving function of a $C^{1,\beta}$ curve (differentiable parametrization with $\beta$-H\"older…
In 2007 Phillips and Weaver showed that, assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, there exists an outer automorphism of the Calkin algebra. (The Calkin algebra is the algebra of bounded operators on a separable complex Hilbert space, modulo the…
This paper is concerned with the algebraic K-theory of locally convex algebras stabilized by operator ideals, and its comparison with topological K-theory. We show that the obstruction for the comparison map between algebraic and…
Given a discrete group $\Gamma$ of isometries of a negatively curved manifold $\widetilde M$, a nontrivial conjugacy class $\mathfrak K$ in $\Gamma$ and $x_0\in\widetilde M$, we give asymptotic counting results, as $t\to +\infty$, on the…
The eigenvalues of a self-adjoint nxn matrix A can be put into a decreasing sequence $\lambda=(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_n)$, with repetitions according to multiplicity, and the diagonal of A is a point of $R^n$ that bears some relation to…
The conormal Lagrangian $L_K$ of a knot $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is the submanifold of the cotangent bundle $T^* \mathbb{R}^3$ consisting of covectors along $K$ that annihilate tangent vectors to $K$. By intersecting with the unit cotangent…
Contraction-driven self-propulsion of a large class of living cells can be modeled by a Keller-Segel system with free boundaries. The ensuing "active" system, exhibiting both dissipation and anti-dissipation, features stationary and…
Propulsion of otherwise passive objects is achieved by mechanisms of active driving. We concentrate on cases in which the direction of active drive is subject to spontaneous symmetry breaking. In our case, this direction will be maintained,…
A dynamical system is called contractive if any two solutions approach one another at an exponential rate. More precisely, the dynamics contracts lines at an exponential rate. This property implies highly ordered asymptotic behavior…
We fill a gap in the proof of the transversality result for quilted Floer trajectories in arXiv:0905.1370 by addressing trajectories for which some but not all components are constant. Namely we show that for generic sets of split…
We appeal to results from combinatorial random matrix theory to deduce that various random graph $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras are asymptotically almost surely Kirchberg algebras with trivial $K_1$. This in particular implies that, with high…
Let $\gamma$ be an automorphism of a polarized complex projective manifold $(M,L)$. Then $\gamma$ induces an automorphism $\gamma_k$ of the space of global holomorphic sections of the $k$-th tensor power of $L$, for every $k=1,2,...$; for…
We prove that if a homeomorphism of a closed orientable surface S has no wandering points and leaves invariant a compact, connected set K which contains no periodic points, then either K=S and S is a torus, or $K$ is the intersection of a…
Inspired by work of McMullen, we show that any orbit of the diagonal group in the space of lattices accumulates on the set of stable lattices. As consequences, we settle a conjecture of Ramharter concerning the asymptotic behaviour of the…
We present a stability theory for kink propagation in chains of coupled oscillators and a new algorithm for the numerical study of kink dynamics. The numerical solutions are computed using an equivalent integral equation instead of a system…
The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability has been proposed as a mechanism to extract energy from magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) kink waves in flux tubes, and to drive dissipation of this wave energy through turbulence. It is therefore a potentially…
It is shown that path algebras modulo relations of the form $\Lambda = KQ/I$, where $Q$ is a quiver, $K$ a coefficient field, and $I \subseteq KQ$ the ideal generated by all paths of a given length, can be readily analyzed homologically,…
Given a link L in the 3-sphere, we ask whether the components of L bound disjoint, nullhomologous disks properly embedded in a simply-connected positive-definite smooth 4-manifold; the knot case has been studied extensively in work of…
The elliptic integral and its various generalizations are playing very important and basic role in different branches of modern mathematics. It is well known that they cannot be represented by the elementary transcendental functions.…
We investigate the dynamics of travelling oscillating solitons of the cubic NLS equation under an external spatiotemporal forcing of the form $f(x,t) = a \exp[iK(t)x]$. For the case of time-independent forcing a stability criterion for…
