Differential inclusions with compact, upper semi-continuous, not necessarily convex right-hand sides in R^n are studied. Under a weakened monotonicity-type condition the existence of solutions is proved.

We consider solutions to the Euler equations in the whole space from a certain class, which can be characterized, in particular, by finiteness of mass, total energy and momentum. We prove that for a large class of right-hand sides,…

It is proved that smooth closed curves of given length minimizing the principal eigenvalue of the Schr\"odinger operator $-\frac{d^2}{ds^2}+\kappa^2$ exist. Here $s$ denotes the arclength and $\kappa$ the curvature. These minimizers are…

The drift method, introduced by the second author, provides a new formulation of the Einstein constraint equations, either in vacuum or with matter fields. The natural of the geometry underlying this method compensates for its slightly…
