The recent measurements of circular velocity curves from weak lensing of the isolated galaxies lead to a conclusion that the circular velocity curves remain flat well beyond the virial radii of dark matter halos up to 1 Mpc. This is in…
Moving vortices in thin superconducting films are considered within the time-dependent London description. The dissipation due to out-of-core normal excitations for two vortices moving together turns out to have a minimum for the separation…
A second-order expansion of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the interaction parameter determines the thermodynamic critical angular velocity Omega_c for the creation of a vortex in a small axisymmetric condensate. Similarly, a second-order…
We establish the stability of a pair of Hill's spherical vortices moving away from each other in 3D incompressible axisymmetric Euler equations without swirl. Each vortex in the pair propagates away from its odd-symmetric counterpart, while…
The calculation of the point vortex velocity probability distribution function (vvpdf) is extended to a larger class of systems beyond the nonconserved TDGL model treated earlier. The range is extended to include certain anisotropic models…
A recent analysis has revealed singular but physically relevant 2D localized vortex states with density ~ 1/r^{4/3} at r --> 0 and a convergent total norm, which are maintained by the interplay of the potential of the attraction to the…
We deal with the electromagnetic waves propagation in the harmonic regime. We derive the Foldy-Lax approximation of the scattered fields generated by a cluster of small conductive inhomogeneities arbitrarily distributed in a bounded domain…
The main goal of this paper is to explore the leapfrogging phenomenon in the inviscid planar flows. We show for 2d Euler equations that under suitable constraints, four concentrated vortex patches leapfrog for all time. When observed from a…
An inertial mass of a vortex can be calculated by driving it round in a circle with a steadily revolving pinning potential. We show that in the low frequency limit this gives precisely the same formula that was used by Baym and Chandler,…
We study vortices in a radially inhomogeneous superfluid, as realized by a trapped degenerate Bose gas in a uniaxially symmetric potential. We show that, in contrast to a homogeneous superfluid, an off-axis vortex corresponds to an…
We derive a general and exact equation of motion for a quantised vortex in an inhomogeneous two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate. This equation expresses the velocity of a vortex as a sum of local ambient density and phase gradients in…
Spiral waves in active media react to small perturbations as particle-like objects. Here we apply the asymptotic theory to the interaction of spiral waves with a localized inhomogeneity, which leads to a novel prediction: drift of the…
The divisible sandpile starts with i.i.d. random variables ("masses") at the vertices of an infinite, vertex-transitive graph, and redistributes mass by a local toppling rule in an attempt to make all masses at most 1. The process…
The velocity fluctuations for point vortex models are studied for the {\alpha}-turbulence equations, which are characterized by a fractional Laplacian relation between active scalar and the streamfunction. In particular, we focus on the…
An effective estimate for the lattice point discrepancy of ellipsoids of rotation. This paper provides an explicit bound, with numerical constants, for the lattice point discrepancy (= number of integer points minus volume) of an ellipsoid…
Squared deviations from the equilibrium positions of one-dimensional coupled harmonic oscillators with fixed and free endpoints are calculated, and the time averages are expressed as a function of the initial displacements and velocities.…
We consider diffraction at random point scatterers on general discrete point sets in $\R^\nu$, restricted to a finite volume. We allow for random amplitudes and random dislocations of the scatterers. We investigate the speed of convergence…
We propose a method for deriving a dynamical lower bound on $\Omega$ from diverging flows in low-density regions, based on the fact that large outflows are not expected in a low-$\Omega$ universe. The velocities are assumed to be induced by…
We study bounds arising from the analyticity and unitarity of scattering amplitudes in the context of effective field theories with massless particles. We provide an approach that only uses dispersion relations away from the forward limit.…
A new set of discrete ordinates is proposed for one-dimensional radiative transfer in spheres with central symmetry. The set is structured with un-normalized circular functions. This resulted in a conservative and closed set of discrete…
