We show stability of pairs of Ricci flat metrics and parallel spinor fields with respect to the spinor flow, i.e. we show that the spinor flow with initial conditions near such pairs converges to a critical point with exponential speed.…

We consider partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds where the unstable and stable foliations stably carry some unique non-trivial homologies. We prove the following two results: if the center foliation is one dimensional,…

Linear stability of stratified two-phase flows in horizontal channels to arbitrary wavenumber disturbances is studied. The problem is reduced to Orr-Sommerfeld equations for the stream function disturbances, defined in each sublayer and…
