Given a functional for a one-dimensional physical system, a classical problem is to minimize it by finding stationary solutions and then checking the positive definiteness of the second variation. Establishing the positive definiteness is,…

Given a compact polarized manifold $(X,L)$, we introduce two new stability thresholds in terms of singularity types of global quasi-plurisubharmonic functions on $X$. We prove that in the Fano setting, the new invariants can effectively…

We address the long time behavior of solutions of the stochastic Korteweg-de Vries equation $ du + (\partial^3_x u +u\partial_x u +\lambda u)dt = f dt+\Phi dW_t$ on ${\mathbb R}$ where $f$ is a deterministic force. We prove that the Feller…

In this article, we give some conditions on the structure of an unstable module, which are satisfied whenever this module is the reduced cohomology of a space or a spectrum. First, we study the structure of the sub-modules of…

We consider self-affine tiling substitutions in Euclidean space and the corresponding tiling dynamical systems. It is well-known that in the primitive case the dynamical system is uniquely ergodic. We investigate invariant measures when the…

In order to circumvent the loss of solid material through radial drift towards the central star, the trapping of dust inside persistent vortices in protoplanetary discs has often been suggested as a process that can eventually lead to…

We investigate an example of noise-induced stabilization in the plane that was also considered in (Gawedzki, Herzog, Wehr 2010) and (Birrell, Herzog, Wehr 2011). We show that despite the deterministic system not being globally stable, the…

Using Density Functional Theory we theoretically study the orientational properties of uniform phases of hard kites -- two isosceles triangles joined by their common base. Two approximations are used: Scaled Particle Theory, and a new…

We prove structure theorems for the Donaldson invariants of 4-manifolds with b_+=1, similar to those of Kronheimer and Mrowka in the case b_+>1: We show that for a 4-manifold with b_+=1 and two different period points F, G on the boundary…

The density functional theory (DFT) is a remarkably successful theory of electronic structure of matter. At the foundation of this theory lies the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation. In this paper, we describe the long-time behaviour of the…

We analyze the stability of the vortex lattice in a rotating superfluid against thermal fluctuations associated with the long-wavelength Tkachenko modes of the lattice. Inclusion of only the two-dimensional modes leads formally to…

We show existence of an invariant probability measure for a class of functional McKean-Vlasov SDEs by applying Kakutani's fixed point theorem to a suitable class of probability measures on a space of continuous functions. Unlike some…

In this paper, we consider the dynamical evolution of dark vortex states in the two-dimensional defocusing discrete nonlinear Schroedinger model, a model of interest both to atomic physics and to nonlinear optics. We find that in a way…

This paper introduces Fourier duality for a class of affine iterated function systems (IFS) T_i. These systems are determined by a finite family of contractive affine maps in R^d. Our Fourier duality applies to the resulting probability…

In this paper, we introduce a noisy framework for SFTs, allowing some amount of forbidden patterns to appear. Using the Besicovitch distance, which permits a global comparison of configurations, we then study the closeness of noisy measures…

Let G/K be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space and let D be a K-invariant domain in G/K. In this paper we characterize several classes of K-invariant plurisubharmonic functions on D in terms of their restrictions to a slice…

We classify Toda-type tt*-structures in terms of the anti-symmetry condition. A Toda-type tt*-structure is a flat bundle whose flatness condition is the tt*-Toda equation (Guest-Its-Lin). We show that the Toda-type tt*-structure can be…

We study the stable behaviour of discrete dynamical systems where the map is convex and monotone with respect to the standard positive cone. The notion of tangential stability for fixed points and periodic points is introduced, which is…

Extending the work of G. Sz\'ekelyhidi and T. Br\"onnle to Sasakian manifolds we prove that a small deformation of the complex structure of the cone of a constant scalar curvature Sasakian manifold admits a constant scalar curvature…

This paper studies the variation diminishing property of $k$-positive linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, which map inputs with $k-1$ sign changes to outputs with at most the same variation. We characterize this property for the Toeplitz…
