We prove that the dynamical system $(\mathbb{N}, 2^{\mathbb{N}}, T, \mu)$, where $\mu$ is a finite measure equivalent to the counting measure, is power-bounded in $L^1(\mu)$ if and only if there exists one cycle of the map $T$ and for any…
Given a knot K in the 3-sphere, consider a singular disk bounded by K and the intersections of K with the interior of the disk. The absolute number of intersections, minimised over all choices of singular disk with a given algebraic number…
This paper studies the existence of $2$-torsion in instanton Floer homology with $\mathbb{Z}$ coefficients for closed $3$-manifolds and singular knots. First, we show that the non-existence of $2$-torsion in the framed instanton Floer…
The main goal of this paper is to study compactifications of polynomial slow-fast systems. More precisely, the aim is to give conditions in order to guarantee normal hyperbolicity at infinity of the Poincar\'e-Lyapunov sphere for slow-fast…
We extend the recently developed discrete geometric singular perturbation theory to the non-normally hyperbolic regime. Our primary tool is the Takens embedding theorem, which provides a means of approximating the dynamics of particular…
A twisted torus knot is a knot obtained from a torus knot by twisting adjacent strands by full twists. The twisted torus knots lie in $F$, the genus 2 Heegaard surface for $S^3$. Primitive/primitive and primitive/Seifert knots lie in $F$ in…
We study the entanglement for a state on linked torus boundaries in $3d$ Chern-Simons theory with a generic gauge group and present the asymptotic bounds of R\'enyi entropy at two different limits: (i) large Chern-Simons coupling $k$, and…
In this paper we present some families of polynomials and use them to find, using the techniques in \cite{gma}, a defining polynomial for the $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ character variety (as defined in \cite{cus}) of the torus knots of type $(m,2)$…
We study random knots, which we define as a triple of random periodic functions (where a random function is a random trigonometric series, \[f(\theta) = \sum_{k=1}^\infty a_k \cos (k \theta) +b_k (\sin k \theta),\] with $a_k, b_k$ are…
We study an orbit of the electromagnetic two-body problem that involves a fast (stiff) spinning motion about a circular orbit. We give a multiscale method of solution that solves for the fast timescale first. The solvability condition of…
This paper proposes a conceptual model for the onset of a stable torus near a saddle-focus equilibrium. This bifurcation scenario is typical of slow-fast systems that generate elliptic bursting in a variety of neuronal models in…
We compute an upper bound on the circuit complexity of quantum states in $3d$ Chern-Simons theory corresponding to certain classes of knots. Specifically, we deal with states in the torus Hilbert space of Chern-Simons that are the knot…
Slow convergence of cyclic projections implies divergence of random projections and vice versa. Let $L_1,L_2,\dots,L_K$ be a family of $K$ closed subspaces of a Hilbert space. It is well known that although the cyclic product of the…
Knotted and tangled structures frequently appear in physical fields, but so do mechanisms for untying them. To understand how this untying works, we simulate the behavior of 1,458 superfluid vortex knots of varying complexity and scale in…
We study when the Thurston norm is detected by twisted Alexander polynomials associated to representations of the 3-manifold group to SL(2, C). Specifically, we show that the hyperbolic torsion polynomial determines the genus for a large…
Torus mapping yields constants of motion for stars trapped at a resonance. Each such constant of motion yields a system of contours in velocity space at the Sun and neighbouring points. If Jeans' theorem applied to resonantly trapped…
For the reduced two-dimensional Belousov-Zhabotinsky slow-fast differential system, the known results are the existence of one limit cycle and its stability for particular values of the parameters. Here, we characterize all dynamics of this…
We study the large-time behavior of finite-energy weak solutions for the Vlasov-Navier-Stokes equations in a two-dimensional torus. We focus first on the homogeneous case where the ambient (incompressible and viscous) fluid carrying the…

Call a smooth knot (or smooth link) in the unit sphere in $\mathbb{C}^2$ analytic (respectively, smoothly analytic) if it bounds a complex curve (respectively, a smooth complex curve) in the complex ball. Let $K$ be a smoothly analytic…
