We characterize the $2$-Killing vector fields on a multiply twisted product manifold, with a special view towards generalized spacetimes. More precisely, we determine the nonlinear differential equations that completely describe them and…
In this paper, we completely classify the magnetic curves (also N-magnetic curves with constant curvature) in a Galilean 3-space associated to a Killing vector field.
It is an interesting question whether a given equation of motion has a periodic solution or not, and in the positive case to describe them. We investigate periodic magnetic curves in elliptic Sasakian space forms and we obtain a…
In this paper, we investigate the position vector of a curve on the surface in the Galilean 3-space G^3. Firstly, the position vector of a curve with respect to the Darboux frame is determined. Secondly, we obtain the standard…
For a regular curve on a spacelike surface in Lorentz-Minkowski $3$-space, we have a moving frame along the curve which is called a Lorentzian Darboux frame. We introduce five special vector fields along the curve associated to the…
Division polynomials associated to an elliptic curve $E/K$ are polynomials $\phi_n, \psi_n^2$ that arise from the sequence of points $\{nP\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ on this curve. If one wishes to study $\mathbb{Z}$--linear combination of…
In a 2D liquid crystal, each topological defect has a topological charge and a characteristic orientation, and hence can be regarded as an oriented particle. Theories predict that the trajectories of annihilating defects depend on their…
We consider the Keplerian distance $d$ in the case of two elliptic orbits, i.e. the distance between one point on the first ellipse and one point on the second one, assuming they have a common focus. The absolute minimum $d_{\rm min}$ of…
The hodograph of the Kepler-Coulomb problem, that is, the path traced by its velocity vector, is shown to be a circle and then it is used to investigate other properties of the motion. We obtain the configuration space orbits of the problem…
For a rotating dust with a 3-dimensional symmetry group all possible metric forms can be classified and, within each class, explicitly written out. This is made possible by the formalism of Pleba\'nski based on the Darboux theorem. In the…
Random motions on the line and on the plane with space-varying velocities are considered and analyzed in this paper. On the line we investigate symmetric and asymmetric telegraph processes with space-dependent velocities and we are able to…
Let $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=p$ be a prime number and let $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with $j(E) \in \mathbb{Q}$. We determine the all possibilities for $E(K)_{tors}$. We obtain these results by studying Galois representations of $E$ and of it's…
We study magnetic geodesic flows invariant under rotations on the 2-sphere. The dynamical system is given by a generic pair of functions $(f,\Lambda)$ in one variable. Topology of the Liouville fibration of the given integrable system near…
By focusing on the family $E:y^2=x^3+a$, we present strategies for determining the structure of the torsion subgroup of the Mordell-Weil group of an elliptic curve, $E(K)$, over quadratic field $K$. Generalizations of the Nagell-Lutz…
Building upon previous results in scalar field theory, a formalism is developed that uses generalized Killing fields to understand the behavior of extended charges interacting with their own electromagnetic fields. New notions of effective…
A study of rational maps of the real or complex projective plane of degree two or more, concentrating on those which map an elliptic curve onto itself, necessarily by an expanding map. We describe relatively simple examples with a rich…
In this paper we study elliptic curves which have a number of points whose coordinates are in arithmetic progression. We first motivate this diophantine problem, prove some results, provide a number of interesting examples and, finally…
We propose geometric tools that are suitable for studying the behavior of a billiard trajectory in a homogeneous force field. Two examples are considered: a vertical plane with an open top and with a parabolic or right angle boundary at the…
Recent advances in cold-atom platforms have made real-time dynamics accessible, renewing interest in the motion of superfluid vortices in two-dimensional domains. Here we show that the energy and the trajectories of arbitrary vortex…
In this work, we study elliptic curves of the form $E_L: y^2 = x(x-1)(x-L)$, where $L^2-L+1 \in \left(\mathbb{Q}^{\times}\right)^2$ and $L \in \mathbb{Q} \setminus \{0,1\}$. We will show that for almost all quadratic extensions…
