The Skolem problem is a long-standing open problem in linear dynamical systems: can a linear recurrence sequence (LRS) ever reach 0 from a given initial configuration? Similarly, the positivity problem asks whether the LRS stays positive…

We investigate the generalized moment membership problem for matrices, a formulation equivalent to Skolem's problem for linear recurrence sequences. We show decidability for orthogonal, unitary, and real eigenvalue matrices, and…

The purpose of this paper is to study weak solutions of a nonlinear Neumann problem considered on a ball. Assuming that the potential is invariant, we consider an orbit of critical points, i.e. we do not assume that critical points are…
We study systems of nonlinear partial differential equations of parabolic type, in which the elliptic operator is replaced by the first order divergence operator acting on a flux function, which is related to the spatial gradient of the…
We study a classically chaotic system which is described by a Hamiltonian $H(Q,P;x)$ where $(Q,P)$ are the canonical coordinates of a particle in a 2D well, and $x$ is a parameter. By changing $x$ we can deform the `shape' of the well. The…
The Neumann problem of linear elasticity is singular with a kernel formed by the rigid motions of the body. There are several tricks that are commonly used to obtain a non-singular linear system. However, they often cause reduced accuracy…
We consider static charged fluid spheres with a cosmological constant. We assume a polytropic equation of state, $p \propto \rho^\Gamma$, and a power law charge distribution, $q\propto r^n$. Using this, we convert the generalised…
We extend Sharkovskii's theorem to the cases of $N$-dimensional maps which are close to 1D maps, with an attracting $n$-periodic orbit. We prove that, with relatively weak topological assumptions, there exist also $m$-periodic orbits for…
We present a novel class of real symmetric matrices in arbitrary dimension $d$, linearly dependent on a parameter $x$. The matrix elements satisfy a set of nontrivial constraints that arise from asking for commutation of pairs of such…
We investigate stability properties of a type of periodic solutions of the $N$-vortex problem on general domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^2$. The solutions in question bifurcate from rigidly rotating configurations of the whole-plane…
This paper considers a Popov type approach to the problem of robust stability for a class of uncertain linear quantum systems subject to unknown perturbations in the system Hamiltonian. A general stability result is given for a general…
