We prove a constant rank theorem for the second fundamental form of the spatial convex level surfaces of solutions to equations $u_t=F(\n^2u, \n u, u, t)$ under a structural condition, and give a geometric lower bound of the principal…

The algebra of smooth translation-invariant valuations on convex bodies, introduced by S.Alesker in the early 2000s, was in part proved and in part conjectured to satisfy properties formally analogous to those of the cohomology ring of a…

There is a remarkable and canonical problem in 3D geometry and topology: To understand existing models of 3D fluid motion or to create new ones that may be useful. We discuss from an algebraic viewpoint the PDE called Euler's equation for…

We introduce the concept of a homogeneity supermanifold, which is, roughly speaking, a supermanifold equipped with a privileged atlas whose coordinates carry prescribed (real) homogeneity degrees. This structure defines a sheaf of graded…

We introduce the Local Increasing Regularity Method (LIRM) which allows us to get from \emph{local} a priori estimates, on solutions $u$ of a linear equation $\displaystyle Du=\omega ,$ \emph{global} ones. As an application we shall prove…

The problem of determining the configuration of points from partial distance information, known as the Euclidean Distance Geometry (EDG) problem, is fundamental to many tasks in the applied sciences. In this paper, we propose two algorithms…

We investigate rigidity and stability properties of critical points of quadratic curvature functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics. We show it is possible to "gauge" the Euler-Lagrange equations, in a self-adjoint fashion, to become…

Leon Rosenfeld published in 1930 the first systematic Hamiltonian approach to Lagrangian models that possess a local gauge symmetry. The application of this formalism to theories with local internal symmetries, such as electromagnetism in…

The generalized method of characteristics is used to obtain rank-2 solutions of the classical equations of hydrodynamics in (3+1) dimensions describing the motion of a fluid medium in the presence of gravitational and Coriolis forces. We…

This paper establishes the equivalence of the Aubin property and the strong regularity for generalized equations over $C^2$-cone reducible sets. This result resolves a long-standing question in variational analysis and extends the…

Ballmann's Rank Rigidity Conjecture predicts that a CAT(0) space of higher rank with a geometric group action is rigid -- isometric to a Riemannian symmetric space, a Euclidean building, or splits as a direct product. We confirm this…

Lagrangian formalism is established for differential equations with special functions of mathematical physics as solutions. Formalism is based on either standard or non-standard Lagrangians. This work shows that the procedure of deriving…

In this article the unique solution of the Cauchy problem is founded by the Riemann method. Some relations for given here confluent hypergeometric functions of two and three variables are used.

In our previous work, a unified description as polynomial Hamiltonian systems was established for a broad class of the Schlesinger systems including the sixth Painleve equation and Garnier systems. The main purpose of this paper is to…

This is a simplification of our prior work on the existence theory for the Rosseland-type equations. Inspired by the Rosseland equation in the conduction-radiation coupled heat transfer, we use the locally arbitrary growth conditions…

Lagrangian averaging theories, most notably the Generalised Lagrangian Mean (GLM) theory of Andrews & McIntyre (1978), have been primarily developed in Euclidean space and Cartesian coordinates. We re-interpret these theories using a…

Given a linear elliptic equation $\sum a_{ij} u_{ij} =0$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$, it is a classical problem to determine if its degree-one homogeneous solutions $u$ are linear. The answer is negative in general, by a construction of…

This paper is a short summary of our recent work on the medians and means of probability measures in Riemannian manifolds. Firstly, the existence and uniqueness results of local medians are given. In order to compute medians in practical…

We prove rigidity results describing contextually-constrained maps defined on Grassmannians and manifolds of ordered independent line tuples in finite-dimensional vector or Hilbert spaces. One statement in the spirit of the Fundamental…
