In this paper we show that the Craik-Leibovich (CL) equation in hydrodynamics is the Euler equation on the dual of a certain central extension of the Lie algebra of divergence-free vector fields. From this geometric viewpoint, one can give…
We introduce the notion of a Khovanov-Floer theory. Roughly, such a theory assigns a filtered chain complex over Z/2 to a link diagram such that (1) the E_2 page of the resulting spectral sequence is naturally isomorphic to the Khovanov…
We consider the conformal wave equation on the Einstein cylinder with a defocusing cubic non-linearity. Motivated by a method developed by Rostworowski-Maliborski on the existence of time periodic solutions to the spherically symmetric…
We discuss as a fundamental characteristic of orthogonal polynomials like the existence of a Lie algebra behind them, can be added to their other relevant aspects. At the basis of the complete framework for orthogonal polynomials we put…
We consider the following $p$ order nonlinear half wave Schr{\"o}dinger equations$$\left(i \partial\_{t}+\partial\_{x }^2-\left|D\_{y}\right|\right) u=\pm|u|^{p-1} u$$on the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ with $1<p\leq 2$. This equation is considered…
We prove that the geodesic equations of all Sobolev metrics of fractional order one and higher on spaces of diffeomorphisms and, more generally, immersions are locally well posed. This result builds on the recently established real analytic…
We define a formal Gromov-Witten theory of the quintic 3-fold via localization on CP4. Our main result is a direct geometric proof of holomorphic anomaly equations for the formal quintic in precisely the same form as predicted by B-model…
This is the second part of a two--part series investigating bifurcation phenomena in autonomous Lagrangian systems and geodesic flows on Finsler and Riemannian manifolds. Building upon the abstract bifurcation theorems established in…
We investigate the blow-up dynamics of smooth solutions to the one-dimensional wave equation with a quadratic spatial derivative nonlinearity, motivated by its applications in Effective Field Theory (EFT) in cosmology. Despite its…
The problem of Laplacian growth is considered within the Loewner-equation framework. A new method of deriving the Loewner equation for a large class of growth problems in the half-plane is presented. The method is based on the…
In this work, we prove three types of results with the strategy that, together, the author believes these should imply the local version of Hilbert's Fifth problem. In a separate development, we construct a nontrivial topology for rings of…
Exceptional orthogonal polynomials are complete families of orthogonal polynomials that arise as eigenfunctions of a Sturm-Liouville problem. Antonio Dur\'an discovered a gap in the original proof of completeness for exceptional Hermite…
We extend Yosida's 1941 version of Stone-Gelfand duality to metrically complete unital lattice-ordered groups that are no longer required to be real vector spaces. This calls for a generalised notion of compact Hausdorff space whose points…
The (chordal) Loewner differential equation encodes certain curves in the half-plane (aka traces) by continuous real-valued driving functions. Not all curves are traces; the latter can be defined via a geometric condition called the local…
We give a generalization of the Komatu-Loewner equation to multiple slits. Therefore, we consider an $n$-connected circular slit disk $\Omega$ as our initial domain minus $m\in \mathbb{N}$ disjoint, simple and continuous curves that grow…
In this paper, we establish new geometric rigidity results through the study of Lyapunov exponent level sets via invariant measures. First, we prove that for a manifold $M$ without focal points, if the zero Lyapunov exponent level set has…
This article is a survey of Cathleen Morawetz's contributions to the mathematical theory of transonic flows, shock waves, and partial differential equations of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic type. The main focus is on Morawetz's fundamental work…
A fundamental theorem of Liouville asserts that positive entire harmonic functions in Euclidean spaces must be constant. A remarkable Liouville-type theorem of Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck states that positive entire solutions of $-\Delta u=u^{…
This paper develops a mathematical framework for interpreting observations of solar inertial waves in an idealized setting. Under the assumption of purely toroidal linear waves on the sphere, the stream function of the flow satisfies a…
The purpose of this note is to prove the existence of a conformal scattering operator for the cubic defocusing wave equation on a non-stationary background. The proof essentially relies on solving the characteristic initial value problem by…
