We introduce a family of natural normalized Loewner chains in the unit ball, which we call "ger\"aumig"---spacious---which allow to construct, by means of suitable variations, other normalized Loewner chains which coincide with the given…
For all $\kappa > 0$, we show that the support of SLE$_\kappa$ curves is the closure in the sup-norm of the set of Loewner curves driven by nice (e.g. smooth) functions. It follows that the support is the closure of the set of simple curves…
Amorphous solids increase their stress as a function of an applied strain until a mechanical yield point whereupon the stress cannot increase anymore, afterwards exhibiting a steady state with a constant mean stress. In stress controlled…
In this paper we study the class of "shearing" holomorphic maps of the unit ball of the form $(z,w)\mapsto (z+g(w), w)$. Besides general properties, we use such maps to construct an example of a normalized univalent map of the ball onto a…
Using Brownian dynamics (BD) simulations we investigate a dense system of charged colloids exposed to shear flow in a confined (slit-pore) geometry. The equilibrium system at zero flow consists of three, well-pronounced layers with…
We identify a class of continuous compactly supported functions for which the known part of the Gabor frame set can be extended. At least for functions with support on an interval of length two, the curve determining the set touches the…
A point process is R-dependent, if it behaves independently beyond the minimum distance R. This work investigates uniform positive lower bounds on the avoidance functions of R-dependent simple point processes with a common intensity.…
Shearlet systems have so far been only considered as a means to analyze $L^2$-functions defined on $\R^2$, which exhibit curvilinear singularities. However, in applications such as image processing or numerical solvers of partial…
We study the Loewner evolution whose driving function is $W_t = B_t^1 + i B_t^2$, where $(B^1,B^2)$ is a pair of Brownian motions with a given covariance matrix. This model can be thought of as a generalization of Schramm-Loewner evolution…
We report on a numerical study of the shear flow of a simple two-dimensional model of a granular material under controlled normal stress between two parallel smooth, frictional walls, moving with opposite velocities $\pm$V . Discrete…
We introduce bendlets, a shearlet-like system that is based on anisotropic scaling, translation, shearing, and bending of a compactly supported generator. With shearing being linear and bending quadratic in spatial coordinates, bendlets…
We use lattice Boltzmann simulations to study the effect of shear on the phase ordering of a two-dimensional binary fluid. The shear is imposed by generalising the lattice Boltzmann algorithm to include Lees-Edwards boundary conditions. We…
Inhomogeneous flows and shear banding are of interest for a range of applications but have been eluding a comprehensive theoretical understanding, mostly due to the lack of a framework comparable to equilibrium statistical mechanics. Here…
Loewner Theory is a deep technique in Complex Analysis affording a basis for many further important developments such as the proof of famous Bieberbach's conjecture and well-celebrated Schramm's Stochastic Loewner Evolution (SLE). It…
Let $Z_{r, R}$ be the space of continuous functions on the annulus $B_{r, R}$ in $\mathbb C^n$ whose $\lambda$-twisted spherical mean, in the set up of the M\'{e}tivier group, vanishes over the spheres $S_s(z)\subset B_{r, R} $ with ball…
We simulate several models of random curves in the half plane and numerically compute their stochastic driving process (as given by the Loewner equation). Our models include models whose scaling limit is the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE)…
Loewner chains with Levy drivers have been proposed as models for random dendritic growth in two dimensions, and as candidates for finding extremal multifractal spectra in problems in classical function theory. These processes are not…
We compute the singular support and the characteristic cycle of a rank 1 sheaf on a smooth variety in codimension 2 using ramification theory, when the ramification of the sheaf is clean. We develop a general theory, called the partially…
The influence of a stationary shear flow on the crystallization in a glassy system is studied by means of molecular dynamics simulations and subsequent cluster analysis. The results reveal two opposite effects of the shear flow on the…
We study a simple scalar constitutive equation for a shear-thickening material at zero Reynolds number, in which the shear stress \sigma is driven at a constant shear rate \dot\gamma and relaxes by two parallel decay processes: a nonlinear…
