We derive two concentration inequalities for linear functions of log-concave distributions: an enhanced version of the classical Brascamp--Lieb concentration inequality, and an inequality quantifying log-concavity of marginals in a manner…

Helicity is a fundamental conserved quantity in physical systems governed by vector fields whose evolution is described by volume-preserving transformations on a three-manifold. Notable examples include inviscid, incompressible fluid flows,…

The inclination or $\lambda$-Lemma is a fundamental tool in finite dimensional hyperbolic dynamics. In contrast to finite dimension, we consider the forward semi-flow on the loop space of a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ provided by the…

We study in detail the dynamics of conformal Hamiltonian flows that are defined on a conformal symplectic manifold (this notion was popularized by Vaisman in 1976). We show that they exhibit some conservative and dissipative behaviours. We…

In this paper, we study global existence and blow up properties to $L^p$ norm preserving non-local heat flows. We first study two kinds of $L^p$ norm preserving non-local flows and prove that these flows have the global solutions. Finally,…

In this paper, we consider a new length preserving curve flow for convex curves in the plane. We show that the global flow exists, the area of the region bounded by the evolving curve is increasing, and the evolving curve converges to the…

In the fabrication of optical fibres, the viscosity of the glass varies dramatically with temperature so that heat transfer plays an important role in the deformation of the fibre geometry. Surprisingly, for quasi-steady drawing, with…

Liquids flowing against solid surfaces experience friction. While solid friction is familiar to anyone with a sense of touch, liquid friction is much more exotic. At macroscopic scales indeed, the assumption of inifinite friction, i.e. that…

A solution to the heat equation between Riemannian manifolds, where the domain is compact and possibly has boundary, will not leave a compact and locally convex set before the image of the boundary does.
