In this work, we study the dynamics of piecewise smooth systems on a codimension-2 transverse intersection of two codimension-1 discontinuity sets. The Filippov convention can be extended to such intersections, but this approach does not…
In this paper, we propose a general mechanism for the existence of quasicrystals in spatially extended systems (partial differential equations with Euclidean symmetry). We argue that the existence of quasicrystals with higher order…
We compute some differentials of Sinha's spectral sequence for cohomology of the space of long knots modulo immersions in codimension one, mainly over a field of characteristic $2$ or $3$. This spectral sequence is closely related to…
Combinatorial transgressions are secondary invariants of a space admitting triangulations. They arise from subdivisions and are analogous to transgressive forms such as those arising in Chern-Weil theory. Unlike combinatorial characteristic…
The evolution of the microstructure due to spinodal decomposition in phase separated mixtures has a strong impact on the final material properties. In the late stage of coarsening, the system is characterized by the growth of a single…
We prove an explicit residue formula for a meromorphic continuation of conformally covariant integral operators between differential forms on ${\bf R}^n$ and on its hyperplane. The results provide a simple and new construction of the…
It is an established fact that a finite difference operator approximates a derivative with a fixed algebraic rate of convergence. Nevertheless, we exhibit a new finite difference operator and prove it has spectral accuracy. Its rate of…
For a differential form on a manifold, having constant components in suitable local coordinates trivially implies being parallel relative to a torsion-free connection, and the converse implication is known to be true for $p$-forms in…
We give a combinatorial consistency-inconsistency configuration that is equivalent to the failure of the following form of Kim's lemma for a given $k$: $(\star)$ For any set of parameters $A$, formula $\varphi(x,b)$, and $A$-bi-invariant…
We derive thermodynamically consistent models for diblock copolymer solutions coupled with the electric and magnetic field, respectively. These models satisfy the second law of thermodynamics and therefore are therefore thermodynamically…
A degree-regular triangulation is one in which each vertex has identical degree. Our main result is that any such triangulation of a (possibly non-compact) surface $S$ is geometric, that is, it is combinatorially equivalent to a geodesic…
Reid's recipe for a finite abelian subgroup $G\subset \text{SL}(3,\mathbb{C})$ is a combinatorial procedure that marks the toric fan of the $G$-Hilbert scheme with irreducible representations of $G$. The geometric McKay correspondence…
While intersection cohomology is stable under small resolutions, both ordinary and intersection cohomology are unstable under smooth deformation of singularities. For complex projective algebraic hypersurfaces with an isolated singularity,…
We consider continuous Dirac operators defined on $\mathbf{R}^d$, $d\in\{1,2,3\}$, together with various discrete versions of them. Both forward-backward and symmetric finite differences are used as approximations to partial derivatives. We…
We study the cobordism of manifolds with boundary, and its applications to codimension 2 embeddings $M^m\subset N^{m+2}$, using the method of the algebraic theory of surgery. The first main result is a splitting theorem for cobordisms of…
A nontrivial conformally invariant model is obtained via generalization the method of obtaining conformally invariant models in $2D$ Euclidean space to the Euclidean space with dimension $D>2$. This method was previously developed by E.S.…
Three fundamental segregation and pattern formation processes are known in granular mixtures in a rotating cylindrical drum: radial segregation, axial banding, and coarsening of the band pattern. While the mechanism for the first effect is…
This work provides a systematic study of the variational properties of decomposable functions which are compositions of an outer support function and an inner smooth mapping under certain constraint qualifications. A particular focus is put…
A systematic and comprehensive study of p-adic refinement equations and subdivision scheme associated with a finitely supported refinement mask are carried out in this paper. The Lq -convergence of the subdivision scheme is characterized in…
We study codimension one foliations with singularities defined locally by Bott-Morse functions on closed oriented manifolds. We carry to this setting the classical concepts of holonomy of invariant sets and stability, and prove a stability…
