We consider the one-dimensional shallow water problem with capillary surfaces and moving contact {lines}. An energy-based model is derived from the two-dimensional water wave equations, where we explicitly discuss the case of a stationary…
We present an effective theory describing the low-energy properties of an interacting 2D electron gas at large non-integer filling factors $\nu\gg 1$. Assuming that the interaction is sufficiently weak, $r_s < 1$, we integrate out all the…
The numerical modelling of convection dominated high density ratio two-phase flow poses several challenges, amongst which is resolving the relatively thin shear layer at the interface. To this end we propose a sharp discretisation of the…
We study a variational model for a diblock-copolymer/homopolymer blend. The energy functional is a sharp-interface limit of a generalisation of the Ohta-Kawasaki energy. In one dimension, on the real line and on the torus, we prove…
Two-fluid relativistic plasma flow equations combine the equations of relativistic hydrodynamics with Maxwell's equations for electromagnetic fields, which involve divergence constraints for the magnetic and electric fields. When developing…
We study the Muskat problem on the half-plane, which models motion of an interface between two fluids of distinct densities (e.g., oil and water) in a porous medium (e.g., an aquifer) that sits atop an impermeable layer (e.g., bedrock).…
We consider a two-dimensional problem in nonlinear elasticity which corresponds to the cubic-to-tetragonal phase transformation. Our model is frame invariant and the energy density is given by the squared distance from two potential wells.…

Starting from an energy comprised of both a bulk term and a surface term, set in the space of special functions of bounded hessian, $SBH$, a relaxation problem in the context of second-order structured deformations was studied in…
We discuss the concepts of energy and mass in relativity. On a finitely extended spatial region, they lead to the notion of quasilocal energy/mass for the boundary 2-surface in spacetime. A new definition was found in [27] that satisfies…
A reduced dynamical model is derived which describes the interaction of weak inertia-gravity waves with nonlinear vortical motion in the context of rotating shallow-water flow. The formal scaling assumptions are (i) that there is a…
Formally second-order correct, mathematical descriptions of long-crested water waves propagating mainly in one direction are derived. These equations are analogous to the first-order approximations of KdV- or BBM-type. The advantage of…
We review a recently introduced set of N-dimensional quasi-maximally superintegrable Hamiltonian systems describing geodesic motions, that can be used to generate "dynamically" a large family of curved spaces. From an algebraic viewpoint,…
We investigate discretization strategies for a recently introduced class of energy-based models. The model class encompasses classical port-Hamiltonian systems, generalized gradient flows, and certain systems with algebraic constraints. Our…
Energy cascades lie at the heart of the dynamics of turbulent flows. In a recent study of turbulence in fluids with odd-viscosity [de Wit \textit{et al.}, Nature \textbf{627}, 515 (2024)], the two-dimensionalization of the flow at small…
First-order energy dissipative schemes in time are available in literature for the Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations, but second-order ones are still in lack. This work proposes novel second-order discretization in time and finite…
The energy of gravitating systems has been an issue since Einstein proposed general relativity: considered to be ill defined, having no proper local density. Energy-momentum is now regarded as \emph{quasi-local} (associated with a closed…
We investigate the formation of polycrystalline structures in a class of particle systems. The atomistic energy is modeled as a sum of particle energies that favor atoms being locally isometric to a reference lattice. The discrete frame…
In this work we combine the well established Kondo problem with the more speculative field of a discrete space time. We show that a discrete energy space induces a flow towards a new fixed point by breaking the conservation of charge and…
A pseudo-Hermitian coupled-channel square-well model is proposed, solved and discussed. The domain of parameters is determined where all the bound-state energies (twice degenerate with respect to the second observable which we call "spin")…
