We investigate the stability of katabatic slope flows over an infinitely wide and uniformly cooled planar surface subject to an additional forcing due to a uniform downslope wind field aloft. We adopt an extension of Prandtl's original…
We study the bounded from below (BFB) conditions on a class of three Higgs doublet models (3HDM) constrained by the symmetry groups U(1)xU(1), U(1)xZ2 and Z2xZ2. These constraints must be implemented on both the neutral (BFB-n) and charged…
Motivated by recent experiments on twisted junctions of cuprate superconductors (SC), it was proposed [1] that at zero temperature, a random first order Josephson coupling $J_1(\textbf{r}) \cos \phi$ generates an "effective" global second…
This paper deals with the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the delayed monostable equation: $(*)$ $u_{t}(t,x) = u_{xx}(t,x) - u(t,x) + g(u(t-h,x)),$ $x \in \mathbb{R},\ t >0,$ where $h>0$ and the reaction term $g: \mathbb{R}_+ \to…

The natural BMO (bounded mean oscillation) conditions suggested by scalar-valued results are known to be insufficient for the boundedness of operator-valued paraproducts. Accordingly, the boundedness of operator-valued singular integrals…
Position based dynamics is a powerful technique for simulating a variety of materials. Its primary strength is its robustness when run with limited computational budget. We develop a novel approach to address problems with PBD for…
Classical conditions for ensuring the robust stability of a linear system in feedback with a sector-bounded nonlinearity include small gain, circle, passivity, and conicity theorems. In this work, we present a similar stability condition,…
