A hollow vortex is a region of constant pressure bounded by a vortex sheet and suspended inside a perfect fluid; it can therefore be interpreted as a spinning bubble of air in water. This paper gives a general method for desingularizing…
We compute an upper bound for the value of the $L^1$-relaxed area of the graph of the vortex map $u : B_l(0)\subset \mathbb R^2 \to \mathbb R^2$, $u(x):= x/\vert x\vert$, $x \neq 0$, for all values of $l>0$. Together with a previously…
We use a shadowing-type lemma in order to analyze the singular, semilinear elliptic equation describing static self-dual abelian Higgs vortices. Such an approach allows us to construct new solutions having an \textit{infinite} number of…
We prove that all $1$-vertex spatial graphs with adequate diagrams have minimal crossing number, and that spatial graph diagrams obtained by replacing vertices and edges of a planar embedded graph by minimal crossing link or spatial graph…
We give a method to determine relative periodic orbits in point vortex systems: it consists mainly into perform a symplectic reduction on a fixed point submanifold in order to obtain a two-dimensional reduced phase space. The method is…
We analyze existence, stability, and symmetry of point vortex relative equilibria with one dominant vortex and N vortices with infinitesimal circulation. The dimension of the problem can be reduced by taking an infinitesimal circulation…
The existence of entire solutions to quasilinear elliptic systems exhibiting both singular and convective reaction terms is discussed. An auxiliary problem, obtained by `freezing' the convection terms and `shifting' the singular ones, is…
We construct geometric barriers for minimal graphs in H^n xR. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution of the vertical minimal equation in the interior of a convex polyhedron in H^n extending continuously to the interior of each…
The nonequilibrium dynamics of vortices in 2D quantum fluids can be predicted by accounting for the way in which vortex ellipticity is coupled to the gradient in background fluid density. In the absence of nonlinear interactions, a…
A class of harmonic solutions to the steady Euler equations for incompressible fluids is presented in two dimensions in circular, elliptic and bipolar coordinates. Since the velocity field is solenoidal in this case, it can be written as…
We study vortex solutions in a theory with dynamics governed by two weakly coupled Abelian Higgs models, describing a hidden sector and a visible sector. We analyze the radial dependence of the axially symmetric solutions constructed…
Elliptic homogenization is used to determine coarse-grained properties of materials with features on small scales for heat transfer and elasticity. When microstructural features of a material have rapid, periodic fluctuations, the solution…
In a locally finite tiling of n-dim Euclidean space by convex polytopes, each point of the space is either a vertex of at least two tiles, or no vertex at all.
In this paper we study a general class of nonlinear elliptic problems in divergence form. First, we prove that the solutions to these problems satisfy a convexity property when the given domain is strictly convex. Then, making use of this…
Minimal surfaces in Euclidean space provide examples of possible non-compact horizon geometries and topologies in asymptotically flat space-time. On the other hand, the existence of limiting surfaces in the space-time provides a simple…
This manuscript is the first in a series of instalments that investigate spherically symmetric solutions within the effective dynamics program of Loop Quantum Gravity. The choice of lattice is adapted such that it remains invariant under a…
We consider the linear elliptic systems or equations in divergence form with periodically oscillating coefficients. We prove the large-scale boundary Lipschitz estimate for the weak solutions in domains satisfying the so-called…
We present n-dimensional vortex-ring-like and potential-like solutions with unusual properties related to some elliptical differential equations with compact sources. Solutions have almost 3- or 2-dimensional behaviour in the spaces with…
In this paper we study the positive solutions of sub linear elliptic equations with a Hardy potential which is singular at the boundary. By means of ODE techniques a fairly complete picture of the class of radial solutions is given. Local…
We describe the linear and nonlinear stability and instability of certain symmetric configurations of point vortices on the sphere forming relative equilibria. These configurations consist of one or two rings, and a ring with one or two…
