This paper is a theoretical and a numerical investigation of the stability of a tip-cantilever system used in noncontact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM) when it oscillates close to a surface. No additional dissipative force is considered.…
A suspended fluid film with two free surfaces convects when a sufficiently large voltage is applied across it. We present a linear stability analysis for this system. The forces driving convection are due to the interaction of the applied…
In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…
We consider the codimension one asymptotic stability problem for the soliton of the focusing cubic Klein-Gordon equation on the line under even perturbations. The main obstruction to full asymptotic stability on the center-stable manifold…
We introduce a new geometric flow called the chord shortening flow which is the negative gradient flow for the length functional on the space of chords with end points lying on a fixed submanifold in Euclidean space. As an application, we…
The absence of a well-defined Fermi surface in flat-band systems challenges the conventional understanding of instabilities toward Landau order based on nesting. We investigate the existence of an intrinsic nesting structure encoded in the…
We consider a certain class of second order, variable coefficient divergence form elliptic operators, in a uniform domain $\Omega$ with Ahlfors regular boundary, and we show that the $A_\infty$ property of the elliptic measure associated to…
Sommerfeld paradox roughly says that mathematically Couette linear shear is linearly stable for all Reynolds number, but experimentally arbitrarily small perturbations can induce the transition from the linear shear to turbulence when the…
We study the fluctuations of the diagonal matrix elements of the quantum cat map about their limit. We show that after suitable normalization, the fifth centered moment for the Hecke basis vanishes in the semiclassical limit, confirming in…
We consider a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ with sufficiently smooth boundary and prove piecewise Sobolev regularity of vector fields that have piecewise regular curl and divergence, but may be discontinuous across…
We obtain explicit characterization of spectral and orbital stability of solitary wave solutions to the $\mathbf{U}(1)$-invariant Klein--Gordon equation in one spatial dimension coupled to an anharmonic oscillator. We also give the complete…
We provide a potential theoretic characterization of vanishing chord-arc domains under minimal assumptions. In particular we show that, if a domain has Ahlfors regular boundary, the oscillation of the logarithm of the interior and exterior…
We study the De Giorgi type conjecture, that is, one dimensional symmetry problem for entire solutions of an two components elliptic system in $\mathbb{R}^n$, for all $n\geq 2$. We prove that, if a solution $(u,v)$ has a linear growth at…
We introduce a space of vector fields with bounded mean oscillation whose ``tangential'' and ``normal'' components to the boundary behave differently. We establish its Helmholtz decomposition when the domain is bounded. This substantially…
We prove that the $1-d$ quantum harmonic oscillator is stable under spatially localized, time quasi-periodic perturbations on a set of Diophantine frequencies of positive measure. This proves a conjecture raised by Enss-Veselic in their…
We study the evolution of an oscillator interacting via the most general bilinear coupling (with time-independent coefficients) with an ``environment'' consisting of a set of other harmonic oscillators. We are mainly interested in a…
We study parabolic chord arc domains, introduced by Hofmann, Lewis and Nystr\"om, and prove a free boundary regularity result below the continuous threshold. More precisely, we show that a Reifenberg flat, parabolic chord arc domain whose…
We formulate a novel characterization of a family of invertible maps between two-dimensional domains. Our work follows two classic results: The Rad\'o-Kneser-Choquet (RKC) theorem, which establishes the invertibility of harmonic maps into a…
Work of D. Stern and Bray-Kazaras-Khuri-Stern provide differential-geometric identities which relate the scalar curvature of Riemannian 3-manifolds to global invariants in terms of harmonic functions. These quantitative formulas are useful…
We consider nonhomogeneous fractional $p$-Laplace equations defined on a bounded nonsmooth domain which goes beyond the Lipschitz category. Under a sufficient flatness assumption on the domain in the sense of Reifenberg, we establish…
