We present a short proof of the fact that two irreducible germs of plane analytic curves are isotopic if they are equisingular, without recourse to the structure of the associated knots.

The purely log terminal blow-ups of three-dimensional terminal toric singularities are described. The three-dimensional divisorial contractions $f\colon (Y,E)\to (X\ni P)$ are described provided that $\Exc f=E$ is an irreducible divisor,…

We consider the existence of invariant curves of real analytic reversible mappings which are quasi-periodic in the angle variables. By the normal form theorem, we prove that under some assumptions, the original mapping is changed into its…

In this paper we construct effective invariants for braid monodromy of affine curves. We also prove that, for some curves, braid monodromy determines their topology. We apply this result to find a pair of curves with conjugate equations in…

We show that for almost every given symmetry transformation of a Riemannian manifold there exists an eigenvector field of the curl operator, corresponding to a non-zero eigenvalue, which obeys the symmetry. More precisely, given a smooth,…

The paper studies the possible blowup of the total variation for entropy weak solutions of the p-system, modeling isentropic gas dynamics. It is assumed that the density remains uniformly positive, while the initial data can have…

Associated with a prime homology class $\beta \in P_2(X,\Z)$ (i.e. $\beta=p\alpha$ and $\alpha \in H_2(X,\Z)$ imply $p=1$ or $p$ is an odd prime) on a symplectic three-manifold with vanishing first Chern class, we count the embedded…

We consider the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $iu_t=-\Delta u-|u|^{p-1}u$ in dimension $N\geq 3$ in the $L^2$ super critical range $1+\frac{4}{N}<p<\frac{N+2}{N-2}$. The corresponding scaling invariant space is $\dot{H}^{s_c}$ with…

We study some finite time transport properties of isotropic Brownian flows. Under a certain nondegeneracy condition on the potential spectral measure, we prove that uniform shrinking or expansion of balls under the flow over some bounded…

In this article we study abstract and embedded invariants of reduced curve germs via topological techniques. One of the most important numerical analytic invariants of an abstract curve is its delta invariant. Our primary goal is to develop…

Let ${\mathcal F}$ be a germ of holomorphic foliation defined in a neighborhood of the origin of ${\mathbb C}^{2}$ that has a germ of irreducible holomorphic invariant curve $\gamma$. We provide a lower bound for the vanishing multiplicity…

We study planar bicycle dynamics via the rotation number function associated with a closed front track and bicycle length R. We prove that mode-locking plateaus occur only at integer rotation numbers and that the rotation number function is…

Corrected versions of the numerically invariant expressions for the affine and Euclidean signature of a planar curve proposed by E.Calabi et. al are presented. The new formulas are valid for fine but otherwise arbitrary partitions of the…

This is a continuation of a previous paper of same title. The degeneration, i.e. curvature blow-up, of sequences of metrics appoaching the Sigma constant, assumed non-positive, is analysed. The degeneration is related to the sphere…

Scalar curvature invariants are studied in type N solutions of vacuum Einstein's equations with in general non-vanishing cosmological constant Lambda. Zero-order invariants which include only the metric and Weyl (Riemann) tensor either…

We consider in this article the damped wave equation, in the \textit{scale-invariant case} with combined two nonlinearities, which reads as follows: \begin{displaymath} \d (E) \hspace{1cm} u_{tt}-\Delta u+\frac{\mu}{1+t}u_t=|u_t|^p+|u|^q,…

We study the blow-ups X of P3 along a proj. normal curve C. We look for very ample divisor classes on X of low degree, and we study the ideal of the embedding of X. Some result is generalized to higher dimensions.

We consider positive radial decreasing blow-up solutions of the semilinear heat equation \begin{equation*} u_t-\Delta u=f(u):=e^{u}L(e^{u}),\quad x\in \Omega,\ t>0, \end{equation*} where $\Omega=\mathbb{R}^n$ or $\Omega=B_R$ and $L$ is a…

An asymptotic formula for the Tian-Paul CM-line of a flat family blown-up at a flat closed sub-scheme is given. As an application we prove that the blow-up of a polarized manifold along a (relatively) Chow-unstable submanifold admits no…

The blowup is studied for the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation $iu_{t}+\Delta u+ |u|^{p-1}u=0$ with $p$ is odd and $p\ge 1+\frac 4{N-2}$ (the energy-critical or energy-supercritical case). It is shown that the solution with negative…
