We consider a wave equation with a time-dependent propagation speed, whose potential oscillations are controlled through bounds on its first and second derivatives and by limiting the integral of the difference with a fixed constant. We…

It is shown that the potential perturbation that shifts a chosen standing wave in space is a block of potential barrier and well for every wave bump between neighbouring knots. The algorithms shifting the range of the primary localization…

The atmosphere is a nonlinear stratified fluid in which internal gravity waves are present. These waves interact with the flow, resulting in wave turbulence that displays important differences with the turbulence observed in isotropic and…

The energy spectrum of gravitational waves (GWs), which depicts the energy of GWs per unit volume of space per logarithmic frequency interval normalized to the critical density of the Universe, is a widely used way for quantifying the…

The destruction of regular regions in two-dimensional, area-preserving maps is traditionally described in terms of the breakup of invariant curves and the persistence of transport barriers. Here, we investigate how this scenario changes…

We prove that any simple planar travelling wave solution to the membrane equation in spatial dimension $d \geq 3$ with bounded spatial extent is globally nonlinearly stable under sufficiently small compactly-supported perturbations, where…
