In this article, based on two case studies, we discuss the role of abnormal geodesics in planar Zermelo navigation problems. Such curves are limit curves of the accessibility set, in the domain where the current is strong. The problem is…
We study the velocity gradients of the fundamental Eulerian equation, $\partial_t u +u\cdot \nabla u=F$, which shows up in different contexts dictated by the different modeling of $F$'s. To this end we utilize a basic description for the…
Using the results of \cite{P1}, we get some estimates of warping functions for isometric immersions by changing the target manifolds by some types of Riemannian manifolds: constant space forms and Hermitian symmetric spaces. And we deal…

We consider the one-dimensional Fisher-KPP equation with step-like initial data. Nolen, Roquejoffre, and Ryzhik showed that the solution $u$ converges at long time to a traveling wave $\phi$ at a position $\tilde \sigma(t) = 2t - (3/2)\log…
We consider a geodesic problem in a manifold endowed with a Randers-Kropina metric. This is a type of singular Finsler metric arising both in the description of the lightlike vectors of a spacetime endowed with a causal Killing vector field…
We prove that the Riemannian metric on a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ with smooth boundary can be uniquely determined, up to an isometry fixing the boundary, by the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to the Laplace-Beltrami…
We analyze the extendability of the solutions to a certain second order differential equation on a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, which is defined by a general class of forces (both prescribed on $M$ or depending on the velocity). The results…
