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 survey we discuss how geometric methods can be used to study topological properties of 3-manifolds such as their Heegaard genus or the rank of their fundamental group. On the other hand, we also discuss briefly some results relating…
We consider a new partial differential equation, of a similar form to the Camassa-Holm shallow water wave equation, which was recently obtained by Degasperis and Procesi using the method of asymptotic integrability. We prove the exact…
This work is devoted to the consistent modeling of a three-phase mixture of a gas, a liquid and its vapor. Since the gas and the vapor are mis-cible, the mixture is subjected to a non-symmetric constraint on the volume. Adopting the Gibbs…

A nonlinear integral equation that is responsible for the implementation of the non-Abelian Gauss's law is applied to an investigation of the topological features of two-color QCD and to a discussion of their relation to QCD dynamics. We…
We develop a geometric formulation of fluid dynamics, valid on arbitrary Riemannian manifolds, that regards the momentum-flux and stress tensors as 1-form valued 2-forms, and their divergence as a covariant exterior derivative. We review…
This manuscript introduces novel approaches to three phenomena. First, we extend the algebraic formulation of kinetic theory within the contact framework by making explicit the gauge freedom, thereby obtaining a formulation in which the…
A simplified, user-friendly repackaging of the curvature estimates implied by the Seiberg-Witten equations is formulated in terms of the convex hull of the set of monopole classes. New results are also obtained concerning boundary cases of…
The periodic and step-like solutions of the double-Sine-Gordon equation are investigated, with different initial conditions and for various values of the potential parameter $\epsilon$. We plot energy and force diagrams, as functions of the…

A new model for biological growth is introduced that couples the geometry of an organism (or part of the organism) to the flow and deposition of material. The model has three dynamical variables (a) a Riemann metric tensor for the geometry,…
We consider singular solutions of a system of two cross-coupled Camassa-Holm (CCCH) equations. This CCCH system admits peakon solutions, but it is not in the two-component CH integrable hierarchy. The system is a pair of coupled Hamiltonian…
The interest in the Camassa-Holm equation inspired the search for various generalizations of this equation with interesting properties and applications. In this letter we deal with such a two-component integrable system of coupled…
