This paper extends a recently proposed robust computational framework for constructing the boundary representation (brep) of the volume swept by a given smooth solid moving along a one parameter family $h$ of rigid motions. Our extension…

We prove that traveling waves in viscous compressible liquids are a generic phenomenon. The setting for our result is a horizontally infinite, finite depth layer of compressible, barotropic, viscous fluid, modeled by the free boundary…

We provide sharp stability estimates for the Alexandrov Soap Bubble Theorem in the hyperbolic space. The closeness to a single sphere is quantified in terms of the dimension, the measure of the hypersurface and the radius of the touching…

We consider smooth flows preserving a smooth invariant measure, or, equivalently, locally Hamiltonian flows on compact orientable surfaces and show that, when the genus of the surface is two, almost every such locally Hamiltonian flow with…

We introduce a class of examples which provide an affine generalization of the nonholonomic problem of a convex body rolling without slipping on the plane. We investigate dynamical aspects of the system such as existence of first integrals,…

Moving mesh methods are designed to redistribute a mesh in a regular way. This applied problem can be considered to overlap with the problem of finding a diffeomorphic mapping between density measures. In applications, an off-the-shelf grid…

The Poincar\'e-Hopf Theorem relates the Euler characteristic of a 2-dimensional compact manifold to the local behavior of smooth vector fields defined on it. However, despite the importance of Filippov vector fields, concerning both their…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic mapping between compact complex manifolds. We give a criterion for $f$ to have {\it unobstructed deformations}, i.e. for the local moduli space of $f$ to be smooth: this says, roughly speaking, that the group of…

We study min-max theory for area functional among hypersurfaces constrained in a smooth manifold with boundary. A Schoen-Simon-type regularity result is proved for integral varifolds which satisfy a variational inequality and restrict to a…

We prove that in any strictly convex symmetric cone $\Omega$ there exists a non empty locus where the WDVV equation is satisfied (i.e. there exists a hyperplane being a Frobenius manifold). This result holds over any real division algebra…

Any attracting, hyperbolic and proper node of a two-dimensional analytic vector-field has a unique strong-stable manifold. This manifold is analytic. The corresponding weak-stable manifolds are, on the other hand, not unique, but in the…

Invariant manifolds are the skeleton of the chaotic dynamics in Hamiltonian systems. In Celestial Mechanics, for instance, these geometrical structures are applied to a multitude of physical and practical problems, such as to the…

In this paper, we give a generalisation of Gromov's compactness theorem for metric spaces, more precisely, we give a compactness theorem for the space of distance measure spaces equipped with a \emph{generalised…

The configuration space of k points on a manifold carries an action of its diffeomorphism group. The homotopy quotient of this action is equivalent to the classifying space of diffeomorphisms of a punctured manifold, and therefore admits…

We propose a new method for the numerical computation of the cut locus of a compact submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^3$ without boundary. This method is based on a convex variational problem with conic constraints, with proven convergence. We…

This article tackles the problem of the classification of expansive homeomorphisms of the plane. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a homeomorphism to be conjugate to a linear hyperbolic automorphism will be presented. The techniques…

We introduce and analyze the characteristic foliation induced by a contact structure on a branched surface, in particular a branched standard spine of a 3-manifold. We extend to (fairly general) singular foliations of branched surfaces the…

We study hyperbolic skew products and the disintegration of the SRB measure into measures supported on local stable manifolds. Such a disintegration gives a method for passing from an observable $v$ on the skew product to an observable…

In a previous work, the authors introduced the notion of `coherent tangent bundle', which is useful for giving a treatment of singularities of smooth maps without ambient spaces. Two different types of Gauss-Bonnet formulas on coherent…
