Fluids, subject to symmetry breaking by stratification support propagation of anisotropic internal waves - IWs. In the vertical plane, rays representing energy paths obey a non-specular reflection law, as their inclination is solely…
In the theory of weakly non-linear elasticity, Hamilton et al. [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. \textbf{116} (2004) 41] identified $W = \mu I_2 + (A/3)I_3 + D I_2^2$ as the fourth-order expansion of the strain-energy density for incompressible…
A connected undirected graph $G = (V,E)$ is lower conformally rigid if uniform edge weights maximize the second smallest Laplacian eigenvalue $\lambda_2(w)$ over all normalized edge weights $w$, and upper conformally rigid if uniform edge…
We study certain pairs of subspaces $V$ and $W$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ we call supports that consist of eigenspaces of the eigenvalues $\pm\|M\|$ of a minimal hermitian matrix $M$ ($\|M\|\leq \|M+D\|$ for all real diagonals $D$). For any pair of…
In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing functionals of the form $E(u)=\int_B f(x,\nabla u) \,dx$ in a suitably prepared class of incompressible, planar maps $u: B \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$. Here, $B$ is the unit disk and…
In a recent paper the author introduced a new method based on viscosity techniques for producing minimal surfaces by minmax arguments. The present work corresponds to the regularity part of the method. Precisely we establish that any weakly…
Some invariant sets may attract a nearby set of initial conditions but nonetheless repel a complementary nearby set of initial conditions. For a given invariant set $X\subset\R^n$ with a basin of attraction $N$, we define a stability index…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field that is complete with respect to a non-Archimedean absolute value, and let $\varphi\in K(z)$ have degree $d\geq 2$. We characterize maps for which the minimal resultant of an iterate $\varphi^n$ is…
We obtain the most general matrix criterion for stability and instability of multi-component solitary waves considering a system of $N$ incoherently coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations. Soliton stability is studied as a constrained…
In the context of integrable partial difference equations on quad-graphs, we introduce the notion of open boundary reductions as a new means to construct discrete integrable mappings and their invariants. This represents an alternative to…
Causality and stability are fundamental requirements for the differential equations describing predictable relativistic many-body systems. In this work, we investigate the stability and causality criteria in linear mode analysis. We discuss…
Positive definiteness of a Hamiltonian expanded about an equilibrium point provides only a necessary condition for stability, a criterion known as Dirichlet's theorem. The reason that this criterion is not necessary for stability is because…
The conformal mapping w=(L/2\pi)\ln z transforms the critical plane with a radial perturbation \alpha\rho^{-y} into a cylinder with width L and a constant deviation \alpha(2\pi/L)^y from the bulk critical point when the decay exponent y is…
The first result in this study is a non-existence theorem for $\alpha-$harmonic mappings. Additionally, a direct connection between the $\alpha-$ harmonic and harmonic maps is made possible via conformal deformation. Second, the instability…
Recently V. Kokilashvili, N. Samko, and S. Samko have proved a sufficient condition for the boundedness of the Cauchy singular integral operator on variable Lebesgue spaces with radial oscillating weights over Carleson curves. This…
Quaternionic analysis, which describes conformal maps from Riemann surfaces into $\mathbb{R}^3$ or $\mathbb{R}^4$, is extended to weakly conformal maps. As a consequence we present a new proof that on any compact Riemann surface $X$ the…
We are concerned with the problem,originated from Seregin [18,19,20], what are minimal sufficiently conditions for the regularity of suitable weak solutions to the 3d Naiver-Stokes equations. We prove some interior regularity criteria, in…
For a ball $B_R(0)\subset\mathbb{R}^2$, we provide sufficient conditions such that a harmonic map $u\in C^\infty(B_R(0)\setminus\{0\}, N)$, with a self-similar bound on its gradient, belongs to $C^\infty(B_R(0))$. Those conditions also…
We investigate the nature of so-called low $T/W$ dynamical instability in a differentially rotating star by focusing on the role played by the corotation radius of the unstable oscillation modes. An one dimensional model of linear…
Consider additive functionals of a Markov chain $W_k$, with stationary (marginal) distribution and transition function denoted by $\pi$ and $Q$, say $S_n=g(W_1)+...+g(W_n)$, where $g$ is square integrable and has mean 0 with respect to…
