The limiting slow dynamics of slow-fast, piecewise-linear, continuous systems of ODEs occurs on critical manifolds that are piecewise-linear. At points of non-differentiability, such manifolds are not normally hyperbolic and so the…
We study continuous symmetry reduction of dynamical systems by the method of slices (method of moving frames) and show that a `slice' defined by minimizing the distance to a single generic `template' intersects the group orbit of every…
Graph dynamical systems (GDSs) can be used to describe a wide range of distributed, nonlinear phenomena. In this paper we characterize cycle equivalence of a class of finite GDSs called sequential dynamical systems SDSs. In general, two…
We investigate the slow dynamics of a colloidal model with two repulsive length scales, whose interaction potential is the sum of a hard-core and a square shoulder. Despite the simplicity of the interactions, Mode-Coupling theory predicts a…
In this paper, we consider a planar dynamical system with a piecewise linear function containing an arbitrary number (but finite) of dropping sections and approximating some continuous nonlinear function. Studying all possible local and…
Dynamical systems with translational or rotational symmetry arise frequently in studies of spatially extended physical systems, such as Navier-Stokes flows on periodic domains. In these cases, it is natural to express the state of the fluid…
Straight lines are common features in human made environments, which makes them a frequently explored feature for control applications. Many control schemes, like Visual Servoing, require the 3D parameters of the features to be estimated.…
Let $\Delta$ be a $d$-dimensional normal pseudomanifold, $d \ge 3.$ A relative lower bound for the number of edges in $\Delta$ is that $g_2$ of $\Delta$ is at least $g_2$ of the link of any vertex. When this inequality is sharp $\Delta$ has…
The aim of this paper is to provide a discussion on current directions of research involving typical singularities of 3D nonsmooth vector fields. A brief survey of known results is presented. The main purpose of this work is to describe the…
An overview is given on two representative methods of dynamical reduction known as center-manifold reduction and phase reduction. These theories are presented in a somewhat more unified fashion than the theories in the past. The target…
Two finite element approximations of the Oldroyd-B model for dilute polymeric fluids are considered, in bounded 2- and 3-dimensional domains, under no flow boundary conditions. The pressure and the symmetric conformation tensor are…
We investigate the geometric properties of simplices in Euclidean d-dimensional space for which two or more of the analogues of the classical triangle centers (including the centroid, circumcenter, incenter, orthocenter or Monge point, and…
Spin glass dynamics is a strong function of spatial dimensionality $D$. The lower critical dimension is close to 2.5, so that, in two dimensions, the condensation temperature $T_\text{g}=0$, and only fluctuations are present at finite…
We consider the dynamics and symplectic reduction of the 2-body problem on a sphere of arbitrary dimension. It suffices to consider the case for when the sphere is 3-dimensional and where we take the group of symmetries to be $SO(4)$. As…
Equilibrium solutions are believed to structure the pathways for ergodic trajectories in a dynamical system. However, equilibria are atypical for systems with continuous symmetries, i.e. for systems with homogeneous spatial dimensions,…
Numerical simulations demonstrate a link between dynamically cold initial solutions and self-similarity. However the nature of this link is not fully understood. Cold initial conditions alone without further symmetry do not lead to…
In the recent article [Jentzen, A., M\"uller-Gronbach, T., and Yaroslavtseva, L., Commun. Math. Sci., 14(6), 1477--1500, 2016] it has been established that for every arbitrarily slow convergence speed and every natural number $d \in…
We investigate the dynamics of several slender rigid bodies moving in a flow driven by the three-dimensional steady Stokes system in presence of a smooth background flow. More precisely we consider the limit where the thickness of these…
We show that in the equilibrium phase of glass-forming hard-sphere fluids in three dimensions, the static length scales tentatively associated with the dynamical slowdown and the dynamical length characterizing spatial heterogeneities in…
We analyze a three-dimensional discontinuous piecewise linear system \(Z=(X,Y)\) whose switching manifold \(\Sigma\) contains visible-visible two-fold intersection lines. Assuming that the matrices \(DX\) and \(DY\) each have one nonzero…
