We prove partial regularity of stationary solutions and minimizers $u$ from a set $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ to a Riemannian manifold $N$, for the functional $\int_\Omega F(x,u,|\nabla u|^2) dx$. The integrand $F$ is convex and satisfies…

We consider spaces of "virtual" constrained generalized Killing spinors, i.e. spaces of Majorana spinors which correspond to "off-shell" $s$-extended supersymmetry in compactifications of eleven-dimensional supergravity based on…

Conventional wisdom dictates that $\mathbb{Z}_N$ factors in the integral cohomology group $H^p(X_n, \mathbb{Z})$ of a compact manifold $X_n$ cannot be computed via smooth $p$-forms. We revisit this lore in light of the dimensional reduction…

The aim of this paper is to provide a discussion on current directions of research involving typical singularities of 3D nonsmooth vector fields. A brief survey of known results is presented. The main purpose of this work is to describe the…

In a Hilbert space setting, we study the stability properties of the regularized continuous Newton method with two potentials, which aims at solving inclusions governed by structured monotone operators. The Levenberg-Marquardt…

In this paper we provide extensions of the $\lambda$-Lemma (also known as Inclination Lemma) for piecewise smooth vector fields and maps. In order to achieve our main result, we investigate the regularity of time-T-maps of piecewise smooth…

We investigate the consistency of the background-field formalism when applying various regularizations and renormalization schemes. By an example of a two-dimensional $\sigma$ model it is demonstrated that the background-field method gives…

This paper is concerned with the study of regularity and stability properties of two Euler-Bernoulli beam equations with localized singular damping. Under suitable regularity assumptions on the damping coefficient, we establish Gevrey…

We extend the recently developed discrete geometric singular perturbation theory to the non-normally hyperbolic regime. Our primary tool is the Takens embedding theorem, which provides a means of approximating the dynamics of particular…

Let $G$ be a strictly pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^2$ with $C^\infty$-smooth boundary $\partial G$. Let $S$ be a 2-dimensional sphere embedded into $\partial G$. Denote by $\mathcal{E}$ the set of all complex points on $S$. We study…

This paper treats the global stabilization problem of continuous-time switched affine systems that have rank-deficient convex combinations of their dynamic matrices. For these systems, the already known set of attainable equilibrium points…

We propose a penalty-based smoothing framework for convex nonsmooth functions with a supremum structure. The regularization yields a differentiable surrogate with controlled approximation error, a single-valued dual maximizer, and explicit…

In this work we classify the at-point regularities of set-valued mappings into two categories and then we analyze their relationship through several implications and examples. After this theoretical tour, we use the subregularity properties…
