We prove a Morse index theorem for action functionals on paths that are allowed to reflect at a hypersurface (either in the interior or at the boundary of a manifold). Both fixed and periodic boundary conditions are treated.
We investigate the existence of periodic trajectories of a particle, subject to a central force, which can hit a sphere, or a cylinder. We will provide also a Landesman-Lazer type of condition in the case of a nonlinearity satisfying a…
Large systems of coupled oscillators subjected to a periodic external drive occur in many situations in physics and biology. Here the simple, paradigmatic case of equal-strength, all-to-all sine-coupling of phase oscillators subject to a…
Circular motion of particles, dust grains and fluids in the vicinity of compact objects has been investigated as a model for accretion of gaseous and dusty environment. Here we further discuss, within the framework of general relativity,…
We show that oscillations are excited in a complex system under the influence of the external force, if the parameters of the system experience rapid change due to the changes in its internal structure. This excitation is collision-like and…

We prove the existence of at least $cl(M)$ periodic orbits for certain time dependant Hamiltonian systems on the cotangent bundle of an arbitrary compact manifold $M$. These Hamiltonians are not necessarily convex but they satisfy a certain…
We consider Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the Euclidean space, generated by compactly supported time-dependent perturbations of hyperbolic quadratic forms. We prove that, under some natural assumptions, such a diffeomorphism must have…
We study the Muskat problem for one fluid in arbitrary dimension, bounded below by a flat bed and above by a free boundary given as a graph. In addition to a fixed uniform gravitational field, the fluid is acted upon by a generic force…
We study a system of partial differential equations with integer and fractional derivatives arising in the study of forced oscillatory motion of a viscoelastic rod. We propose a new approach considering a quotient of relations appearing in…
The equations governing the flow of a viscous incompressible fluid around a rigid body that performs a prescribed time-periodic motion with constant axes of translation and rotation are investigated. Under the assumption that the period and…
It is shown that the viscous-plastic Hibler sea ice model admits a unique, strong $T$-time periodic solution provided the given $T$-periodic forcing functions are small in suitable norms. This is in particular true for time periodic wind…
The present work deals with the resolution of the Poisson equation in a bounded domain made of a thin and periodic layer of finite length placed into a homogeneous medium. We provide and justify a high order asymptotic expansion which takes…
