We investigate linear perturbations in an incompressible, weakly collisional, anisotropic plasma, taking heat fluxes into account. Our analysis identifies a new class of time-invariant perturbations that encompass heat flux variations and…
Models for fluid deformable surfaces provide valid theories to describe the dynamics of thin fluidic sheets of soft materials. To use such models in morphogenesis and development requires to incorporate active forces. We consider active…
Particles moving along curved trajectories will diffuse if the curvature fluctuates sufficiently in either magnitude or orientation. We consider particles moving at a constant speed with either a fixed or with a Gaussian distributed…
Three dimensional unsteady flow of fluids in the Lagrangian description is considered as an autonomous dynamical system in four dimensions. The condition for the existence of a symplectic structure on the extended space is the frozen field…

The relation of the Weierstrass semigroup with several invariants of a curve is studied. For Galois covers of curves with group $G$ we introduce a new filtration of the group decomposition subgroup of $G$. The relation to the ramification…
Recent theoretical and experimental work has demonstrated the existence of one-sided, invariant barriers to the propagation of reaction-diffusion fronts in quasi-two-dimensional periodically-driven fluid flows. These barriers were called…
Consider the 3D flow of a viscous Newtonian fluid upon a curved 2D substrate when the fluid film is thin as occurs in many draining, coating and biological flows. We derive a comprehensive model of the dynamics of the film, the model being…
We show that certain radially symmetric steady states of compressible viscous fluids in domains with inflow/outflow boundary conditions are unconditionally stable. This means that any not necessarily radially symmetric solution of the…
The buoyancy-induced parallel flow in a vertical cylindrical porous layer is analysed. A radial thermal gradient caused by a uniformly distributed heat source is assumed to induce the buoyant flow. The layer boundaries are modelled as…
This paper is a review on recently found connection between geodesically equivalent metrics and integrable geodesic flows. Suppose two different metrics on one manifold have the same geodesics. We show that then the geodesic flows of these…
A framework for defining stochastic currents associated with diffusion processes on curved Riemannian manifolds is presented. This is achieved by introducing an overdamped Stratonovich-Langevin equation that remains fully covariant under…
The Lie point symmetries and corresponding invariant solutions are obtained for a Gaussian, irrotational, compressible fluid flow. A supersymmetric extension of this model is then formulated through the use of a superspace and superfield…
We explore the instabilities developed in a fluid in which viscosity depends on temperature. In particular, we consider a dependency that models a very viscous (and thus rather rigid) lithosphere over a convecting mantle. To this end, we…
Mathematical modeling of fluid dynamics for computer graphics requires high levels of theoretical rigor to ensure visually plausible and computationally efficient simulations. This paper presents an in-depth theoretical framework analyzing…
The evolution of the interface separating a conduit of light, viscous fluid rising buoyantly through a heavy, more viscous, exterior fluid at small Reynolds numbers is governed by the interplay between nonlinearity and dispersion. Previous…
A new diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two incompressible fluids with different densities is introduced using methods from rational continuum mechanics. The model fulfills local and global dissipation inequalities and is also…
Inhomogeneous flows and shear banding are of interest for a range of applications but have been eluding a comprehensive theoretical understanding, mostly due to the lack of a framework comparable to equilibrium statistical mechanics. Here…
A new important relation between fluid mechanics and differential geometry is established. We study smooth steady solutions to the Euler equations with the additional property: the velocity vector is orthogonal to the gradient of the…
