The ropelength problem asks for the minimum-length configuration of a knotted diameter-one tube embedded in Euclidean three-space. The core curve of such a tube is called a tight knot, and its length is a knot invariant measuring…
It is known that the fairly (most?) general class of 2D superintegrable systems defined on 2D spaces of constant curvature and separating in (geodesic) polar coordinates is specified by two types of radial potentials (oscillator or…
In this work, we introduce the notion of entropy at infinity, and define a wide class of noncompact manifolds with negative curvature, those which admit a critical gap between entropy at infinity and topological entropy. We call them…
In this note we prove that any $W^{1,2}$ mapping $u$ in the plane that minimizes an appropriate quasiconvex energy functional subject to the Jacobian constraint ${\rm det} \na u=1$ a.e., are necessarily Lipschitz. Furthermore we show that…
We investigate the phenomenological consequences of kappa-Minkowski extension of the Standard Model, working in the linear order in inverse $\kappa$. At this order the *-deformed Lagrangian can be expanded in the series of dimension five…
This paper is devoted to classical variational problems for planar elastic curves of clamped endpoints, so-called Euler's elastica problem. We investigate a straightening limit that means enlarging the distance of the endpoints, and obtain…
In the celebrated work of Friesecke, James and M\"uller '06 the authors derive a hierarchy of models for plates by carefully analyzing the $\Gamma$-convergence of the rescaled nonlinear elastic energy. The key ingredient of their proofs is…
The problem of UV divergences in QFT has long been a fundamental challenge. Standard regularization techniques modify high-energy behavior to ensure well-defined integrals. However, these approaches often introduce unphysical parameters,…
We study the variational convergence of a family of two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau functionals arising in the study of superfluidity or thin-film superconductivity, as the Ginzburg-Landau parameter epsilon tends to 0. In this regime and…
A four dimensional conformally invariant energy is studied. This energy generalises the well known two-dimensional Willmore energy. Although not positive definite, it includes minimal hypersurfaces as critical points. We compute its first…
We establish an energy quantization for constrained Willmore surfaces, where the constraints are given by area, volume, and total mean curvature, assuming that the underlying conformal structures remain bounded. Furthermore, we show strong…
This article represents the first installment of a series of papers concerned with low regularity solutions for the water wave equations in two space dimensions. Our focus here is on sharp cubic energy estimates. Precisely, we introduce and…
In this paper, we study flexibility of weak solutions to the Monge-Amp\`ere system (MA) via convex integration. This new system of Pdes is an extension of the Monge-Amp\`ere equation in $d=2$ dimensions, naturally arising from the…
A compactness framework is formulated for the incompressible limit of approximate solutions with weak uniform bounds with respect to the adiabatic exponent for the steady Euler equations for compressible fluids in any dimension. One of our…
We resolve the problem of optimal regularity and Uhlenbeck compactness for affine connections in General Relativity and Mathematical Physics. First, we prove that any affine connection $\Gamma$, with components $\Gamma \in L^{2p}$ and…
Let $\mathbb{A}$ and $\mathbb{A_{*}}$ be two non-degenerate spherical annuli in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ equipped with the Euclidean metric and the weighted metric $|y|^{1-n}$, respectively. Let $\mathcal{F}(\mathbb{A},\mathbb{A_{*}})$ denote the…
In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…
Herein we present open problems and survey examples and theorems concerning sequences of Riemannian manifolds with uniform lower bounds on scalar curvature and their limit spaces. Examples of Gromov and of Ilmanen which naturally ought to…
Let $d \ge 1$, $p \ge d$, and let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove some exponential integrability in the spirit of Moser-Trudinger's inequalities for measurable functions $u$ defined in $\Omega$ such that…
The quantum corrections to black hole entropy, variously defined, suffer quadratic divergences reminiscent of the ones found in the renormalization of the gravitational coupling constant (Newton constant). We consider the suggestion, due to…
