The elasticity difference tensor, used in [1] to describe elasticity properties of a continuous medium filling a space-time, is here analysed from the point of view of the space-time connection. Principal directions associated with this…
Spherical confinement can act either stabilizing or destabilizing on the collapsed state of a semi-flexible polymer. General free-energy arguments suggest that the order of the unconstrained collapse transition is the distinguishing factor:…
We study orthogonal polynomials for a weight function defined over a domain of revolution, where the domain is formed from rotating a two-dimensional region and goes beyond the quadratic domains. Explicit constructions of orthogonal bases…
A ring is *unit-additive* if a sum of units is always either a unit or nilpotent. For example, $k[X]$ and $k[X]/(X^2)$ are unit-additive, but $\mathbb Z$ is not. We prove a wide-ranging theorem about unit-additivity in semigroup rings,…
In this paper we give elementary conditions completely characterising when the theory of modules of a Pr\"ufer domain is decidable. Using these results, we show that the theory of modules of the ring of integer valued polynomials is…
Given a ring R, we define its right i-profile (resp. right p-profile) to be the collection of injectivity domains (resp. projectivity domains) of its right R-modules. We study the lattice theoretic properties of these profiles and consider…
For a positive real number $\alpha$, let $\mathbb{N}_0[\alpha,\alpha^{-1}]$ be the semiring of all real numbers $f(\alpha)$ for $f(x)$ lying in $\mathbb{N}_0[x,x^{-1}]$, which is the semiring of all Laurent polynomials over the set of…
We prove that the density of polynomials $P(x)=\sum_{i=0}^n a_n x^n$ over a local field $K$ generating an \'etale extension with specified splitting type is a rational function in terms of the size of the residue field of $K$ in the case…
A randomly pinned elastic medium in two dimensions is modeled by a disordered fully-packed loop model. The energetics of disorder-induced dislocations is studied using exact and polynomial algorithms from combinatorial optimization.…
We call shifted power a polynomial of the form $(x-a)^e$. The main goal of this paper is to obtain broadly applicable criteria ensuring that the elements of a finite family $F$ of shifted powers are linearly independent or, failing that, to…
A ring has bounded factorizations if every cancellative nonunit $a \in R$ can be written as a product of atoms and there is a bound $\lambda(a)$ on the lengths of such factorizations. The bounded factorization property is one of the most…
Fractional dynamics of relativistic particle is discussed. Derivatives of fractional orders with respect to proper time describe long-term memory effects that correspond to intrinsic dissipative processes. Relativistic particle subjected to…
The energy of an elastic manifold in a random landscape at T=0 is shown numerically to obey a probability distribution that depends on size of the box it is put into. If the extent of the spatial fluctuations of the manifold is much less…
For a given graph whose edges are labeled with general real numbers, we consider the set of functions from the vertex set into the Euclidean plane such that the distance between the images of neighbouring vertices is equal to the…
Every orthonomic system of partial differential equations is known to possess a finite number of integrability conditions sufficient to ensure the validity of all. Herewith we offer an efficient algorithm to construct a sufficient set of…
Two classes of non-linear elastic materials are derived via two-dimensional homogenization. These materials are equivalent to a periodic grid of axially-deformable and axially-preloaded structural elements, subject to incremental…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of graded extension dimension for a group graded ring R, denoted by gr.ext.dim(R). We prove that when R is strongly graded, its graded extension dimension coincides with the non-graded extension…
We identify the dynamical heterogeneities as an essential prerequisite for stretched exponential relaxation in dynamically frustrated systems. This heterogeneity takes the form of ordered domains of finite but diverging lifetime for…
For a class of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$, which in particular includes all quadratic polynomials, and also trinomials of some special form, we show that, under some natural conditions (necessary for quadratic polynomials), the set…
We analyze the instability of a vortex column in a dilute polymer solution at large $\textit{Re}$ and $\textit{De}$ with $\textit{El} = \textit{De}/\textit{Re}$, the elasticity number, being finite. Here, $\textit{Re} = \Omega_0 a^2/\nu_s$…
