We study singularities of constant positive Gaussian curvature surfaces and determine the way they bifurcate in generic 1-parameter families of such surfaces. We construct the bifurcations explicitly using loop group methods. Constant…
We demonstrate with a minimal example that in Filippov systems (dynamical systems governed by discontinuous but piecewise smooth vector fields) stable periodic motion with sliding is not robust with respect to stable singular perturbations.…
We make a detailed numerical study of a three dimensional dissipative vector field derived from the normal form for a cusp-Hopf bifurcation. The vector field exhibits a Neimark-Sacker bifurcation giving rise to an attracting invariant…
The aim of this paper is to study dynamical and topological properties of a flow in the region of influence of an isolated non-saddle set or a $W$-set in a manifold. These are certain classes of compact invariant sets in whose vicinity the…
Smooth complex surfaces polarized with an ample and globally generated line bundle of degree three and four, such that the adjoint bundle is not globally generated, are considered. Scrolls of a vector bundle over a smooth curve are shown to…
We prove that steady state bifurcations in finite-dimensional dynamical systems that are symmetric with respect to a monoid representation generically occur along an absolutely indecomposable subrepresentation. This is stated as a…
Directional fields, including unit vector, line, and cross fields, are essential tools in the geometry processing toolkit. The topology of directional fields is characterized by their singularities. While singularities play an important…
We present an example of a monotone two-parameter family of vector fields on a torus whose bifurcation diagram we demonstrate to be in the class of "simplest" diagrams proposed by Baesens & MacKay (2018 Nonlinearity 31 2928--81). This shows…
We study the geometric and topological properties of strange non-chaotic attractors created in non-smooth saddle-node bifurcations of quasiperiodically forced interval maps. By interpreting the attractors as limit objects of the iterates of…
We prove a bifurcation result of uniformly-rotating/stationary non-trivial vortex sheets near the circular distribution for a model of two irrotational fluids with same density taking into account surface tension effects. As bifurcation…
We construct global curves of rotational traveling wave solutions to the $2D$ water wave equations on a compact domain. The real analytic interface is subject to surface tension, while gravitational effects are ignored. In contrast to the…
We systematically study the splitting of vector bundles on a smooth, projective variety, whose restriction to the zero locus of a regular section of an ample vector bundle splits. First, we find ampleness and genericity conditions which…
Normal form theory is developed deeply for planar smooth systems but has few results for piecewise-smooth systems because difficulties arise from continuity of the near-identity transformation, which is constructed piecewise. In this paper,…
Concave in measure and d-concave in measure nonautonomous scalar ordinary differential equations given by coercive and time-compactible maps have similar properties to equations satisfying considerably more restrictive hypotheses. This…
In piecewise-smooth differential systems, a hyperbolic limit cycle of a subsystem loses its structural stability if it grazes the switching manifold at a tangent point. Such a cycle is called a grazing loop and in this paper we investigate…
In this paper, we are concerned about the qualitative behavior of planar Filippov systems around some typical invariant sets, namely, polycycles. In the smooth context, a polycycle is a simple closed curve composed by a collection of…
The structural bifurcation of a 2D divergence free vector field $\mathbf{u}(\cdot, t)$ when $\mathbf{u}(\cdot, t_0)$ has an interior isolated singular point $\mathbf{x}_0$ of zero index has been studied by Ma and Wang. Although in the class…
We classify trivalent vertex-transitive graphs whose edge sets have a partition into a 2-factor composed of two cycles and a 1-factor that is invariant under the action of the automorphism group.
We study the occurrence of limit cycles from a point on the discontinuity hyperplane $L$ between two smooth vector fields where the two vector fields both point towards one another. Generically, such a point (called switched equilibrium in…
In this paper, we establish the existence of Stokes waves with piecewise smooth vorticity in a two-dimensional, infinitely deep fluid domain. These waves represent traveling water waves propagating over sheared currents in a semi-infinite…
