A vertex of degree one in a tree is called an end vertex and a vertex of degree at least three is called a branch vertex. For a graph $G$, let $\sigma_2$ be the minimum degree sum of two nonadjacent vertices in $G$. We consider tree…
We prove a Cheeger inequality for the first positive Steklov eigenvalue. It involves two isoperimetric constants.
We consider the sloshing problem for an incompressible, inviscid, irrotational fluid in an open container, including effects due to surface tension on the free surface. We restrict ourselves to a constant contact angle and seek…
In this paper, we introduce a class of new logarithmic curvature flow. The flows are designed to embrace the monotonicity of the related functional, and the convergence of this flow would tackle the solvability of the weighted…
Electron transport in two-dimensional conducting materials such as graphene, with dominant electron-electron interaction, exhibits unusual vortex flow that leads to a nonlocal current-field relation (negative resistance), distinct from the…
The object of this paper is twofold. Firstly, we study a class of generalized Newtonian fluid related to "power law ". For the corresponding non-Newtonian Navier-Stokes problems, the existence of a weak and periodic solutions is proved in…
To overcome topological constraints and improve the expressiveness of normalizing flow architectures, Wu, K\"ohler and No\'e introduced stochastic normalizing flows which combine deterministic, learnable flow transformations with stochastic…
We are interested in the gradient flow of a general first order convex functional with respect to the $L^1$-topology. By means of an implicit minimization scheme, we show existence of a global limit solution, which satisfies an…
In this paper we study Steklov eigenvalues for the Lam\'e operator which arise in the theory of linear elasticity. In this eigenproblem the spectral parameter appears in a Robin boundary condition, linking the traction and the displacement.…
This paper studies the entropy of tree-shifts of finite type with and without boundary conditions. We demonstrate that computing the entropy of a tree-shift of finite type is equivalent to solving a system of nonlinear recurrence equations.…
We review the first and second boundary value problems for the Stokes system posed in a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^n.$ Particular attention is given to the mixed boundary condition: a Dirichlet condition is imposed for the…
The notion of tree entropy was introduced by the author as a normalized limit of the number of spanning trees in finite graphs, but is defined on random infinite rooted graphs. We give some new expressions for tree entropy; one uses…
We associate a sequence of variational eigenvalues to any Radon measure on a compact Riemannian manifold. For particular choices of measures, we recover the Laplace, Steklov and other classical eigenvalue problems. In the first part of the…
We consider stochastic processes with (or without) memory whose evolution is encoded by a finite or infinite rooted tree. The main goal is to compare the entropy rates of a given base process and a second one, to be considered as a…
We prove that among all doubly connected domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of the form $B_1\backslash \overline{B_2}$, where $B_1$ and $B_2$ are open balls of fixed radii such that $\overline{B_2}\subset B_1$, the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue…
We give explicit isoperimetric upper bounds for all Steklov eigenvalues of a compact orientable surface with boundary, in terms of the genus, the length of the boundary, and the number of boundary components. Our estimates generalize a…
We consider the gradient flow of a quadratic non-autonomous energy under monotonicity constraint in time and natural regularity assumptions. We provide first a notion of weak solution, inspired by the theory of curves of maximal slope, and…
In this work, we provide two novel approaches to show that incompressible fluid flow in a finite domain contains at most a finite number vortices. We use a recently developed geometric theory of incompressible viscous flows along with an…
Are solids intrinsically different from liquids? Must a finite stress be applied in order to induce flow? Or, instead, do all solids only look rigid on some finite timescales and eventually flow if an infinitesimal shear stress is applied?…
Given a tree $T$ and a group $\Ga$ of automorphisms of $T$, we study the markovian properties of the geodesic flow on the quotient by $\Ga$ of the space of geodesics of $T$. For instance, when $T$ is the Bruhat-Tits tree of a semi-simple…
