We prove among other things that the omega-limit set of a bounded solution of a Hamilton system \[\left\{\begin{aligned} & \mathbf{\dot{p}}=\frac{\partial H}{\partial \mathbf{q}} & \mathbf{\dot{q}}=-\frac{\partial H}{\partial \mathbf{p}} \\…
We consider a bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 3$, and $h$ a continuous function on $\Omega$. Let $\Gamma$ be a closed curve contained in $\Omega$. We study existence of positive solutions $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$ to the…

A stochastic theory is presented for a quantum vortex that is expected to occur in superfluids coated on two dimensional sphere $ {\rm S}^2 $. The starting point is the canonical equation of motion (the Kirchhoff equation) for a point…
We study self-similar solutions of the point-vortex system. The explicit formula for self-similar solutions has been obtained for the three point-vortex problem and for a specific example of the four and five point-vortex problems. We see…
We consider four-dimensional general relativity with a positive cosmological constant, $\Lambda$, in the presence of a boundary, $\Gamma$, of finite spatial size. The boundary is located near a cosmological event horizon, and is subject to…

In this paper, we study the point-vortex dynamics with positive intensities. We show that in the half-plane and in a disk, collapses of point vortices with the boundary in finite time are impossible, hence the solution of the dynamics is…

We introduce a new reduction of the motion of three point vortices in a two-dimensional ideal fluid. This proceeds in two stages: a change of variables to Jacobi coordinates and then a Nambu reduction. The new coordinates demonstrate that…
We begin with a review of the statements of non-linear, linear and mode stability of autonomous dynamical systems in classical mechanics, using symplectic geometry. We then discuss what the phase space and the Hamiltonian of general…
