We give an elementary obstruction to reducibility for knotted surfaces in the four-sphere. As a new application, we construct stably irreducible non-orientable surfaces.
It is well known that discrete-time linear systems can be stabilized by a least-squares (LS) based self-tuning regulator (STR), as long as noises are absent. However, this note shows that once the discrete-time linear systems are disturbed,…
We construct a well-behaved stable category of modules for a large class of infinite groups. We then consider its Picard group, which is the group of invertible (or endotrivial) modules. We show how this group can be calculated when the…
We discuss the first step in the moduli stabilization program a la KKLT for a general class of resolved toroidal type IIB orientifolds. In particular, we discuss their geometry, the topology of the divisors relevant for the D3-brane…
We report experimental observations of an undulational instability of myelin figures. Motivated by this, we examine theoretically the deformation and possible instability of concentric, cylindrical, multi-lamellar membrane structures. Under…
We consider the "limiting behavior" of *discriminants*, by which we mean informally the locus in some parameter space of some type of object where the objects have certain singularities. We focus on the space of partially labeled points on…
We study the dynamics of generic unfoldings of saddle-node circle local diffeomorphisms from the measure theoretical point of view, obtaining statistical stability results for deterministic and random perturbations in these kind of…
We consider unstable attractors; Milnor attractors $A$ such that, for some neighbourhood $U$ of $A$, almost all initial conditions leave $U$. Previous research strongly suggests that unstable attractors exist and even occur robustly (i.e.…
In this work, we give a survey on non characteristic domains of Heisenberg groups. We prove that bounded domains which are diffeomorphic to the solid torus having the center of the group as rotation axis, are non characteristic. Then, we…
Static equilibrium configurations of continua supported by surface tension are given by constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces which are critical points of a variational problem to extremize the area while keeping the volume fixed. CMC…
We present stability conditions for the category of coherent systems on an integral curve. We define a three-parameter family of pre-stability conditions in its derived category using tilting, and we then investigate when these conditions…
Frame Theory has a great revolution in recent years. This Theory have been extended from Hilbert spaces to Hilbert $C^{\ast}$-modules. In this paper we consider the stability of continuous operator frame and continuous $K$-operator frames…
Biological soft tissues exhibit elastic properties which can be dramatically different from rubber-type materials (elastomers). To gain a better understanding of the role of constitutive relationships in determining material responses under…
The formation of unstaggered localized modes in dynamical lattices can be supported by the interplay of discreteness and nonlinearity with a finite relaxation time. In rapidly responding nonlinear media, on-site discrete solitons are…
We consider the group of isotopy classes of automorphisms of the 3-sphere that preserve a spatial graph or a handlebody-knot embedded in it. We prove that the group is finitely presented for an arbitrary spatial graph or a reducible…
We consider soliton dynamics and stability in a nonlinear lattice formed by alternating domains with focusing cubic and saturable nonlinearities. We find that in such lattices solitons centered on cubic domains may be stabilized even in…
We identify a fundamental morphological instability of mobile dislocations in crystals and related line defects. A positive gradient in the local driving force along the direction of defect motion destabilizes long-wavelength vibrational…
A generalized torsion in a group, an non-trivial element such that some products of its conjugates is the identity. This is an obstruction for a group being bi-orderable. Though it is known that there is a non bi-orderable group without…
We describe deformations of vector bundles on surfaces that are a product of two smooth projective curves. We explicitly describe the Kuranishi map around unstable vector bundles and compare the homologies of the Kuranishi spaces of stable…
We establish an exponential stabilization result for linear port-Hamiltonian systems of first order with quite general, not necessarily continuous, energy densities. In fact, we have only to require the energy density of the system to be of…
