The motion of a vortex filament in superfluid 4He is considered by using the Hall-Vinen-Bekarevich-Khalatnikov (HVBK) phenomenological model for the scattering process between the vortex and thermal excitations in liquid 4He. The HVBK…
In this paper, we study the evolution of smooth, closed planar curves under a fourth order biharmonic flow with an external forcing term. Such flows arise naturally in the theory of biharmonic maps and geometric variational problems…
This paper develops a simple model of the inertial range of turbulent flow, based on a cascade of vortical filaments. A binary branching structure is proposed, involving the splitting of filaments at each step into pairs of daughter…
In our previous paper math.DG/0010008, we develop some new techniques in attacking the convergence problems for the K\"ahler Ricci flow. The one of main ideas is to find a set of new functionals on curvature tensors such that the Ricci flow…
