he equation $-\Delta u = \lambda e^u$ posed in the unit ball $B \subseteq \R^N$, with homogeneous Dirichlet condition $u|_{\partial B} = 0$, has the singular solution $U=\log\frac1{|x|^2}$ when $\lambda = 2(N-2)$. If $N\ge 4$ we show that…
The Hausdorff dimension of the set of points that are covered infinitely many times by a sequence of randomly distributed balls in the unit cube can be expressed in terms of the sizes of the balls. This note presents a new proof of the…
In this article we calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the set \begin{equation*} \mathcal{F}(\Phi )=\left\{ x\in \lbrack 0,1):\begin{aligned}a_{n+1}(x)a_n(x) \geq \Phi(n) \ {\rm for \ infinitely \ many \ } n\in \mathbb N \ {\rm and } \\…
We prove bounds for the almost sure value of the Hausdorff dimension of the limsup set of a sequence of balls in $\mathbf{R}^d$ whose centres are independent, identically distributed random variables. The formulas obtained involve the rate…
We prove some results concerning the boundary of a convex set in $\H^n$. This includes the convergence of curvature measures under Hausdorff convergence of the sets, the study of normal points, and, for convex surfaces, a generalized Gauss…
A one phase Stefan problem in nonlinear conduction is considered. The problem is shown to admit a unique solution for small times. An exact solution is obtained which is a travelling front moving with constant speed.
In this paper we establish optimal solvability results, that is, maximal regularity theorems, for the Cauchy problem for linear parabolic differential equations of arbitrary order acting on sections of tensor bundles over boundaryless…
Suppose that $\Sigma$ is a hyperbolic surface and $f:\mathbb R_+\to\mathbb R_+$ a monotonic function. We study the closure in the projective tangent bundle $PT\Sigma$ of the set of all geodesics $\gamma$ satisfying $I(\gamma,\gamma)\leq…
We prove a sharp upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of weighted singular vectors in $\mathbb{R}^m$ using dynamics on homogeneous spaces, specifically the method of integral inequalities. Together with the lower bound proved recently by…
In this work, we study the removability of boundary singular sets for certain classes of quasilinear elliptic equations in domains $\Omega$ of an $n$-dimensional Finsler manifold ( $\mathcal{M}, F, \vartheta$ ). We work with Lipschitz…
Singular vectors are those for which the quality of rational approximations provided by Dirichlet's Theorem can be improved by arbitrarily small multiplicative constants. We provide an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of singular…
Let us consider a sphere $S^{n-1}$ of radius $r$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, where we have fixed poles $N$ and $S$. Suppose that $K$ is a set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ containing a translated copy of each meridian (that is an $S^{n-2}$-sphere) of $S^{n-1}$.…
As a model to provide a hands-on, elementary understanding of chaotic dynamics in dimension three, we introduce a $C^2$-open set of diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb R^3$ having two horseshoes with different dimensions of instability. We prove…
We study first-order symmetrizable hyperbolic $N\times N$ systems in a spacetime cylinder whose lateral boundary is totally characteristic. In local coordinates near the boundary at $x=0$, these systems take the form \[ \partial_t u +…
Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold, and let $G$ be a compact simple Lie group with bi-invariant metric that is not $\operatorname{Sp}(n)$ for $n \geq 8$, $E_{8}$, $F_{4}$, or $G_{2}$. We show that the singular set of any stable…
In this paper we formulate a Stefan problem appropriate when the thermophysical properties are distinct in each phase and the phase-change temperature is size or velocity dependent. Thermophysical properties invariably take different values…
We use recent advances on the discretized sum-product problem to obtain new bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of planar $(\alpha,2\alpha)$-Fursterberg sets. This provides a quantitative improvement to the $2\alpha+\epsilon$ bound of…
In this paper we prove radial symmetry for solutions to a free boundary problem with a singular right hand side, in both elliptic and parabolic regime. More exactly, in the unit ball $B_1$ we consider a solution to the fully nonlinear…
We prove a natural inequality which implies the known lower bounds for the $(n-1)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of nodal sets for smooth compact manifolds.
In this work we are interested in the self--affine fractals studied by Gatzouras and Lalley and by the author which generalize the famous general Sierpinski carpets studied by Bedford and McMullen. We give a formula for the Hausdorff…
