This paper is a sequel to Chaika and Krishnan [arXiv:1612.00434]. We again consider translation invariant measures on families of nearest-neighbor semi-infinite walks on the integer lattice Z^d. We assume that once walks meet, they…
Equations that follow from the Navier-Stokes equation and incompressibility but with no other approximations are "exact.". Exact equations relating second- and third-order structure functions are studied, as is an exact incompressibility…
The state of a non-relativistic gravitational dynamical system is known at any time $t$ if the dynamical rule, i.e. Newton's equations of motion, can be solved; this requires specification of the gravitational potential. The evolution of a…
Our main goal is to understand the stability of second order linear homogeneous differential equations $\ddot x(t)+\alpha(t)\dot x(t)+\beta(t)x(t)=0$ for $C^0$-generic values of the variable parameters $\alpha(t)$ and $\beta(t)$. For that…

We introduce a new class of singular partial differential equations, referred to as the second-order hyperbolic Fuchsian systems, and we investigate the associated initial value problem when data are imposed on the singularity. First, we…

A multi-scale method for the hyperbolic systems governing sediment transport in subcritical case is developed. The scale separation of this problem is due to the fact that the sediment transport is much slower than flow velocity. We first…

In this paper we study a class of \emph{self-consistent dynamical systems}, self-consistent in the sense that the discrete time dynamics is different in each step depending on current statistics. The general framework admits popular…
We prove optimal error bounds for a second order in time finite element approximation of curve shortening flow in possibly higher codimension. In addition, we introduce a second order in time method for curve diffusion. Both schemes are…
