We consider optimal stopping problems with finite-time horizon and state-dependent discounting. The underlying process is a one-dimensional linear diffusion and the gain function is time-homogeneous and difference of two convex functions.…
We show the existence of non-trivial self-expanding harmonic map flows starting from non-energy-minimizing 0-homogeneous maps to a regular ball or a closed hemisphere. In particular, given a non-minimizing but stationary 0-homogeneous…
Linear stability of inviscid, parallel, and stably stratified shear flow is studied under the assumption of smooth strictly monotonic profiles of shear flow and density, so that the local Richardson number is positive everywhere. The…
This master thesis looks at the gradient flow of the length functional on embedded loops. The space of embedded loops is endowed with a scale structure so that the length functional becomes scale smooth. For certain underlying manifolds,…
We look at spaces of infinite-by-infinite matrices, and consider closed subsets that are stable under simultaneous row and column operations. We prove that up to symmetry, any of these closed subsets is defined by finitely many equations.
We consider two types of $p$-centro affine flows on smooth, centrally symmetric, closed convex planar curves, $p$-contracting, respectively, $p$-expanding. Here $p$ is an arbitrary real number greater than 1. We show that, under any…
We present the basic equations for stationary, incompressible resistive MHD flows in two dimensions. This leads to a system of differential equations for two flux functions, one elliptic partial differential equation (Grad-Shafranov-like)…
Spaces of harmonic functions in upper half-space with controlled growth near the boundary are described in terms of multiresolution approximations. The results are applied to prove the law of the iterated logarithm for the oscillation of…
In this paper, we investigate steady inviscid compressible flows with radial symmetry in an annulus. The major concerns are transonic flows with or without shocks. One of the main motivations is to elucidate the role played by the angular…
We obtain a complete solution to the problem of classifying all two-dimensional ideal fluid flows with harmonic Lagrangian labelling maps; thus, we explicitly provide all solutions, with the specified structural property, to the…
An ideal compressible fluid is considered, with an equilibrium density being a given function of coordinates due to presence of some static external forces. The slow flows in such system, which do not disturb the density, are investigated…
Analytical and numerical solutions for the integral curves of the velocity field (streamlines) of a steady-state flow of an ideal fluid with $p = \rho$ equation of state are presented. The streamlines associated with an accelerate black…
By applying the theory of group-invariant solutions we investigate the symmetries of Ricci flow and hyperbolic geometric flow both on Riemann surfaces. The warped products on $\mathcal {S}^{n+1}$ of both flows are also studied.
In this paper, we prove some splitting results for manifolds supporting a non-constant infinity harmonic function which has at most linear growth on one side. Manifolds with non-negative Ricci or sectional curvature are considered. In…
It was recently established that a function which is harmonic on an infinite cylinder and vanishes on the boundary necessarily extends to an entire harmonic function. This paper considers harmonic functions on an annular cylinder which…
In a recent paper, Hur & Wheeler [J. Differential Equations, 338:572-590, 2022] proved the existence of periodic steady water waves over an infinitely deep, two-dimensional and constant vorticity flow under the influence of gravity. These…
We consider an infinite planar straight strip perforated by small holes along a curve. In such domain, we consider a general second order elliptic operator subject to classical boundary conditions on the holes. Assuming that the perforation…
We study the harmonic map equations for maps of a Riemann surface into a Riemannian symmetric space of compact type from the point of view of soliton theory. There is a well-known dressing action of a loop group on the space of harmonic…
The stellar velocity fields of elliptical galaxies hold clues to their dynamical structure and origin. The construction of velocity field models is greatly simplified by assuming an approximate geometrical form for the streamlines of the…
We study equilibrium configurations of infinitely many identical particles on the real line or finitely many particles on the circle, such that the (repelling) force they exert on each other depends only on their distance. The main question…
