We revisit the problem of monotonicity of the period function for the differential equation $u"-u+u^p=0$ and give a simple proof of recent results of Miyamoto and Yagasaki.

The purpose of this paper is to characterize the concept of monotonicity according to a direction related to a set of n random variables in terms of its associated n-copula C. We start establishing relationships in the bivariate and…

Consider the Lienard system $ u'' + f(u) u' + g(u) = 0$ with a center at the origin 0. In the case where the period function $T$ is monotonic, we examine periodic solutions of the perturbed equation $ u'' + a(u)u' + f(u) = \epsilon h(t)$.…

Discrete time crystalline phases have attracted significant theoretical and experimental attention in the last few years. Such systems require a seemingly impossible combination of nonadiabatic driving and a finite-entropy long-time state,…

We consider the following question: if a function of the form $\int_0^{\infty}\varphi(t)\, e^{-xt}dt$ is completely monotonic, is it then $\varphi\ge0$? It turns out that the question is related to a moment problem. In the end we apply…

The connection between monotonicity formulas and the (S$_+$)-property is that, for some popular differential operators, the former is used to prove the latter. The purpose of this paper is to explore this connection, remark how in the past…
