In this paper, we establish a generalization of Sturm--Picone comparison theorem for a pair of fractional nonlocal equations: \begin{eqnarray*} \begin{gathered} (-div. (A_1(x)\nabla))^{s} u = C_{1}(x) u \,\,\,\mbox{in}\,\,\Omega, u = 0…

We prove the Poisson geometric version of the Local Reeb Stability (from foliation theory) and of the Slice Theorem (from equivariant geometry). The result is also a generalization of Conn's linearization theorem from one-point leaves to…

The mathematical theory underlying Hamiltonian mechanics is called symplectic geometry. So symplectic geometry arose from the roots of mechanics and is seen as one of the most valuable links between physics and mathematics today. Symplectic…
