Trigonometric formulas for eigenvalues of $3 \times 3$ matrices that build on Cardano's and Vi\`ete's work on algebraic solutions of the cubic are numerically unstable for matrices with repeated eigenvalues. This work presents numerically…
We introduce a class of convex, higher-dimensional billiard models which generalise stadium billiards. These models correspond to the free motion of a point-particle in a region bounded by cylinders cut by planes. They are motivated by…
We develop a bifurcation-theoretic description of Friedmann--Robertson--Walker cosmologies with a scalar field $\phi$, a barotropic fluid of index $\gamma$, and spatial curvature. For the strict exponential potential…
We introduce an algebra of Schouten-commuting holomorphic polyvector fields on the moduli space of stable G-bundles over a curve by using invariant forms on the Lie algebra. The generators begin in degree three -- we prove a vanishing…
In this paper, we first show that homogeneous Keller maps are injective on lines through the origin. We subsequently formulate a generalization, which is that under some conditions, a polynomial endomorphism with $r$ homogeneous parts of…
A real matrix is Hurwitz if its eigenvalues have negative real parts. The following generalisation of the Bidimensional Global Asymptotic Stability Problem (BGAS) is provided: Let $X:R^2-->R^2$ be a C^1 vector field whose derivative DX(p)…
We study connected branches of non-constant {$2\pi$-pe}riodic solutions of the Hamilton equation \begin{displaymath} \dot{x}(t)=\lambda J\nabla H(x(t)), \end{displaymath} where $\lambda\in\halfline,$ $H\in C^2(\R^n\times\R^n,\R)$ and $…
We study polynomial random dynamical systems with complete connections on the Riemann sphere. In this framework, the choice of the next polynomial map is governed by a state-dependent rule with memory, extending both i.i.d. random dynamics…
The stability properties of simple element choices for the mixed formulation of the Laplacian are investigated numerically. The element choices studied use vector Lagrange elements, i.e., the space of continuous piecewise polynomial vector…
In this paper we give the absolutely new proof of a conjecture of R.F.Scott(1881) on the permanent of a Cauchy matrix $\ls \frac{1}{x_i-y_j} \rs_{1 \leqslant i,j \leqslant n},$ where $x_1, ..., x_n$ and $y_1, ..., y_n$ are the distinct…
We consider the class of higher derivative field equations whose wave operator is a square of another self-adjoint operator of lower order. At the free level, the models of this class are shown to admit a two-parameter series of integrals…
We study algebraic integrability of complex planar polynomial vector fields $X=A (x,y)(\partial/\partial x) + B(x,y) (\partial/\partial y) $ through extensions to Hirzebruch surfaces. Using these extensions, each vector field $X$ determines…
There have been a number of recent works on the theory of period polynomials and their zeros. In particular, zeros of period polynomials have been shown to satisfy a "Riemann Hypothesis" in both classical settings and for cohomological…
We extend the definition of $n$-dimensional difference equations to complex order $\alpha\in \mathbb{C} $. We investigate the stability of linear systems defined by an $n$-dimensional matrix $A$ and derive conditions for the stability of…
In this paper, we show that the Jacobian conjecture holds for gradient maps in dimension n <= 3 over a field K of characteristic zero. We do this by extending the following result for n <= 2 by F. Dillen to n <= 3: if f is a polynomial of…
A quadratic H\'enon map is an automorphism of $\C^2$ of the form $h:(x,y)\mapsto (\l^{1/2} (x^2+c)-\l y,x)$. It has a constant Jacobian equal to $\l$ and has two fixed points. If $\lambda$ is on the unit circle (one says $h$ is…
The main result given in Theorem~1.1 is a condition for a map $X$, defined on the complement of a disk $D$ in R^2 with values in R^2, to be extended to a topological embedding of R^2, not necessarily surjective. The map $X$ is supposed to…
In this paper, we study the stability of matrix polynomials under structured perturbations of their coefficients. More precisely, we consider a family of matrix polynomials \[…
We say that a compact invariant set $\Lambda$ of a $C^1$-vector field $X$ on a compact boundaryless Riemannian manifold $M$ is robustly shadowable if it is locally maximal with respect to a neighborhood $U$ of $\Lambda$, and there exists a…
Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be open and let $\mathcal{R}$ be a partial frame on $\Omega$, that is a set of $m$ linearly independent vector fields prescribed on $\Omega$ ($m\leq n$). We consider the issue of describing the set of all…
