In this article, we prove new rigidity results for compact Riemannian spin manifolds with boundary whose scalar curvature is bounded from below by a non-positive constant. In particular, we obtain generalizations of a result of Hang-Wang…
We propose sufficient conditions for existence of topologically stable periodic canard solutions in non-smooth slow-fast systems.
We investigate stability properties of a type of periodic solutions of the $N$-vortex problem on general domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^2$. The solutions in question bifurcate from rigidly rotating configurations of the whole-plane…
We study strong existence and pathwise uniqueness for stochastic differential equations in $\RR^d$ with rough coefficients, and without assuming uniform ellipticity for the diffusion matrix. Our approach relies on direct quantitative…
In the context of a spatially extended model for the electrical activity in a pituitary lactotroph cell line, we establish that two delayed bifurcation phenomena from ODEs ---folded node canards and slow passage through Hopf bifurcations---…
The existence of weak solutions to the "viscous incompressible fluid + rigid body" system with Navier slip-with-friction conditions in a 3D bounded domain has been recently proved by G\'{e}rard-Varet and Hillairet in \cite{exi:GeH}. In 2D…
A famous result by Delort about the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations is the existence of weak solutions when the initial vorticity is a diffuse bounded Radon measure with distinguished sign. In this paper we are interested in…
The folded node is a singularity associated with loss of normal hyperbolicity in systems where mixtures of slow and fast timescales arise due to singular perturbations. Canards are special solutions that reveal a counteractive feature of…
We discover a new Poincar\'e type phenomenon by establishing an optimal rigidity theorem for local CR mappings between circle bundles that are defined in a canonical way over (possibly reducible) bounded symmetric domains. We prove such a…
The goal of this paper is to investigate some rigidity properties of stable solutions of elliptic equations set on manifolds with boundary. We provide several types of results, according to the dimension of the manifold and the sign of its…
Painlev\'e showed that there can be inconsistency and indeterminacy in solutions to the equations of motion of a 2D rigid body moving on a sufficiently rough surface. The study of Painlev\'e paradoxes in 3D has received far less attention.…
We consider the symmetry-breaking steady state bifurcation of a spatially-uniform equilibrium solution of E(2)-equivariant PDEs. We restrict the space of solutions to those that are doubly-periodic with respect to a square or hexagonal…
This manuscript develops a novel understanding of non-polar solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e I equation (dP1). As the non-autonomous counterpart of an analytically completely integrable difference equation, this system is endowed with a…
Here the buckling of inextensible rods due to axial body forces is mapped to 1d, nonrelativistic, time-independent quantum mechanics. Focusing on the pedagogical case of rods confined to 2d, three simple and physically realizable…
We demonstrate with a minimal example that in Filippov systems (dynamical systems governed by discontinuous but piecewise smooth vector fields) stable periodic motion with sliding is not robust with respect to stable singular perturbations.…
Solutions of the perturbed Painlev\'e-2 equation are typical for describing a dynamic bifurcation of soft loss of stability. The bifurcation boundary separates solutions of different types before bifurcation and before loss of stability.…
We prove that the time of classical existence of smooth solutions to the relativistic Euler equations can be bounded from below in terms of norms that measure the "(sound) wave-part" of the data in Sobolev space and "transport-part" in…
We show the existence of a weak solution of a semilinear elliptic Dirichlet problem on an arbitrary open set. We make no assumptions about the open set, very mild regularity assumptions on the semilinearity, plus a coerciveness assumption…
We establish existence and regularity results for boundary value problems arising from the first variation of the Willmore energy in the graphical setting. Our focus lies on two-dimensional surfaces with fixed clamped boundary conditions,…
Steady states of the Swift--Hohenberg equation are studied. For the associated four--dimensional ODE we prove that on the energy level $E=0$ two smooth branches of even periodic solutions are created through the saddle-node bifurcation. We…
