The Henon-Heiles Hamiltonian was introduced in 1964 as a mathematical model to describe the chaotic motion of stars in a galaxy. By canonically transforming the classical Hamiltonian to a Birkhoff-Gustavson normalform Delos and Swimm…
We study the horocycle flow on the stratum of translation surfaces $\mathcal{H}(2)$. We show that there is a sequence of horocycle ergodic measures, each supported on a periodic horocycle orbit, which weakly converges to an invariant, but…
We give a meaning to the Hamilton--Jacobi equation arising from mean-field spin glass models in the viscosity sense, and establish the corresponding well-posedness. Originally defined on the set of monotone probability measures, these…
The flow equation approach investigated by Wegner et al. is applied to an unbounded Hamiltonian system with a generalization. We show that a well-known quantized complex energy eigenvalues which is related to decay widths can be given with…
We consider a Hamiltonian system with 2 degrees of freedom, with a hyperbolic equilibrium point having a loop or homoclinic orbit (or, alternatively, two hyperbolic equilibrium points connected by a heteroclinic orbit), as a step towards…
This work is the third part of a program initiated in arXiv:2111.13258, arXiv:2302.06571 aiming at the development of an intrinsic geometric well-posedness theory for Hamilton-Jacobi equations related to controlled gradient flow problems in…
This article is devoted to stationary solutions of Euler's equation on a rotating sphere, and to their relevance to the dynamics of stratospheric flows in the atmosphere of the outer planets of our solar system and in polar regions of the…
It is known that the Eulerian and Lagrangian structures of fluid flow can be drastically different; for example, ideal fluid flow can have a trivial (static) Eulerian structure, while displaying chaotic streamlines. Here we show that ideal…
The Hamilton-Jacobi equation on metric spaces has been studied by several authors; following the approach of Gangbo and Swiech, we show that the final value problem for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation has a unique solution even if we add a…
We obtain space-time H\"older regularity estimates for solutions of first- and second-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations perturbed with an additive stochastic forcing term. The bounds depend only on the growth of the Hamiltonian in the…
The long-time behavior of stochastic Hamilton-Jacobi equations is analyzed, including the stochastic mean curvature flow as a special case. In a variety of settings, new and sharpened results are obtained. Among them are (i) a…
The calculation of the full (renormalized) holographic action is undertaken in general Einstein-scalar theories. The appropriate formalism is developed and the renormalized effective action is calculated up to two derivatives in the metric…
In this paper we study an approximation scheme for an Hamilton-Jacobi equation of Eikonal type defined on a network. We introduce an appropriate notion of viscosity solution for this class of equations (see \cite{sc}) and we prove that an…
The orbit closure of any translation surface under the horocycle flow in almost any direction equals its $SL_2(\mathbb{R})$ orbit closure. This result gives rise to new characterizations of lattice surfaces in terms of the hororcycle flow.
Motivated by the vanishing contact problem, we study in the present paper the convergence of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations depending nonlinearly on the unknown function. Let $H(x,p,u)$ be a continuous Hamiltonian which is strictly…
The present lecture notes address three columns on which the Lagrangian perturbation approach to cosmological dynamics is based: 1. the formulation of a Lagrangian theory of self--gravitating flows in which the dynamics is described in…
By a semi-Lagrangian change of coordinates, the hydrostatic Euler equations describing free-surface sheared flows is rewritten as a system of quasilinear equations, where stability conditions can be determined by the analysis of its…
In this paper, we prove that the solution of the Landau-Lifshitz flow $u(t,x)$ from $\mathbb{H}^2$ to $\mathbb{H}^2$ converges to some harmonic map as $t\to\infty$. The essential observation is that although there exist infinite numbers of…
We study the nonlinear inhomogeneous wave equation in one space dimension: $v_{tt} - T(v,x)_{xx} = 0$. By constructing some "decoupled" Riccati type equations for smooth solutions, we provide a singularity formation result without…
Linear cases of Bragg-Hawthorne equation for steady axisymmetric incompressible ideal flows are systematically discussed. The equation is converted to a more convenient form in a spherical coordinate system. A new vorticity decomposition is…
