We establish small energy H\"{o}lder bounds for minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of \[E_\varepsilon (u):=\int_\Omega W(\nabla u)+ \frac{1}{\varepsilon^2} \int_\Omega f(u),\] where $W$ is a positive definite quadratic form and the potential $f$…
We study connected branches of non-constant {$2\pi$-pe}riodic solutions of the Hamilton equation \begin{displaymath} \dot{x}(t)=\lambda J\nabla H(x(t)), \end{displaymath} where $\lambda\in\halfline,$ $H\in C^2(\R^n\times\R^n,\R)$ and $…
We obtain the bi-Hamiltonian structure for some of the two-component short pulse equations proposed in the literature to generalize the original short pulse equation when polarized pulses propagate in anisotropic media.
For piecewise-linear maps, the phenomenon that a branch of a one-dimensional unstable manifold of a periodic solution is completely contained in its stable manifold is codimension-two. Unlike codimension-one homoclinic corners, such…
We prove well-posedness and regularity for the stochastic pure Cahn-Hilliard equation under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, with both additive and multiplicative Wiener noise. In contrast with great part of the literature, the…
We consider the bifurcation problem $u'' + \lambda u = N(u)$ with two point boundary conditions where $N(u)$ is a general nonlinear term which may also depend on the eigenvalue $\lambda$. We give a variational characterization of the…
We introduce a two-orbital Hamiltonian on a square lattice that contains on-site attractive interactions involving the two $e_g$ orbitals. Via a canonical mean-field procedure similar to the one applied to the well-known negative-$U$…
Here we show that for a C^2 surface diffeomorphism that satisfy the hypothesis of Hayashi connecting lemma either can be approximated, in the C^1 topology, by a diffeomorphism exhibiting a homoclinic tangency or the diffeomorphism already…
In this paper we prove a sufficient condition for the existence of a Hamilton cycle, which is applicable to a wide variety of graphs, including relatively sparse graphs. In contrast to previous criteria, ours is based on only two…

We establish an implicit variational principle for the equations of the contact flow generated by the Hamiltonian $H(x,u,p)$ with respect to the contact 1-form $\alpha=du-pdx$ under Tonelli and Osgood growth assumptions. It is the first…
We propose a simple Hamiltonian to describe the motion and the merging of Dirac points in the electronic spectrum of two-dimensional electrons. This merging is a topological transition which separates a semi-metallic phase with two Dirac…
We continue the variational approach to parabolic trajectories introduced in our previous paper [5], which sees parabolic orbits as minimal phase transitions. We deepen and complete the analysis in the planar case for homogeneous singular…
We investigate integrable 2-dimensional Hamiltonian systems with scalar and vector potentials, admitting second invariants which are linear or quadratic in the momenta. In the case of a linear second invariant, we provide some examples of…
Using a homologically link theorem in variational theory and iteration inequalities of Maslov-type index, we prove the existences of a sequence of subharmonic solutions for one type of sub-quadratic non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems.…
The paper concentrates on the application of the following Hardy inequality \begin{equation*} \int_\Omega \ |\xi(x)|^p \omega_{1 }(x)dx\le \int_\Omega |\nabla \xi(x)|^p\omega_{2 }(x)dx, \end{equation*} to the proof of existence of weak…
We study the global flow of the anisotropic Manev problem, which describes the planar motion of two bodies under the influence of an anisotropic Newtonian potential with a relativistic correction term. We first find all the heteroclinic…
In this article we develop a theory of contact systems with nonholonomic constraints. We obtain the dynamics from Herglotz's variational principle, by restricting the variations so that they satisfy the nonholonomic constraints. We prove…
