This paper introduces a stratification framework for nonlinear semidefinite programming (NLSDP) that reveals and utilizes the geometry behind the nonsmooth KKT system. Based on the \emph{index stratification} of $\mathbb{S}^n$ and its lift…

Ideal systems like MHD and Euler flow may develop singularities in vorticity (w = curl v). Viscosity and resistivity provide dissipative regularizations of the singularities. In this paper we propose a minimal, local, conservative,…

Flow over a surface can be stratified by imposing a fixed mean vertical temperature (density) gradient profile throughout or via cooling at the surface. These distinct mechanisms can act simultaneously to establish a stable stratification…

We formulate and study the isometric flow of $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$-structures on compact $8$-manifolds, as an instance of the harmonic flow of geometric structures. Starting from a general perspective, we establish Shi-type estimates and a…

We prove the uniqueness of solutions to Dirichlet problem for p-harmonic maps with images in a small geodesic ball of the target manifold. As a consequence, we show that such maps have Hoelder continuous derivatives. This gives an extension…

We introduce and study a conformal heat flow of harmonic maps defined by an evolution equation for a pair consisting of a map and a conformal factor of metric on the two-dimensional domain. This flow is designed to postpone finite time…

The Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow deforms both a map from an oriented closed surface $M$ into an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold, and a constant curvature metric on $M$, so as to reduce the energy of the map as quickly as possible…

We combine Gromov's amenable localization technique with the Poincar\'{e} duality to study the traversally generic vector flows on smooth compact manifolds $X$ with boundary. Such flows generate well-understood stratifications of $X$ by the…

We prove a new quantitative version of the Alexandrov theorem which states that if the mean curvature of a regular set in R^{n+1} is close to a constant in L^{n}-sense, then the set is close to a union of disjoint balls with respect to the…

Symmetry reduction by the method of slices quotients the continuous symmetries of chaotic flows by replacing the original state space by a set of charts, each covering a neighborhood of a dynamically important class of solutions,…

A numerical study of stably stratified flows past spheres at Reynolds numbers $Re=200$ and $Re=300$ is reported. In these flow regimes, a neutrally stratified laminar flow induces distinctly different near-wake features. However, the flow…
