The paper proposes an approach for the efficient model order reduction of dynamic contact problems in linear elasticity. Instead of the augmented Lagrangian method that is widely used for mechanical contact problems, we prefer here the…
Many inverse problems involve two or more sets of variables that represent different physical quantities but are tightly coupled with each other. For example, image super-resolution requires joint estimation of the image and motion…

Some mechanical systems with dissipation can be described within the framework of the so-called contact mechanics: a modified form of the Euler-Lagrange equations stemming from Herglotz's variational principle, which admits a geometric…
Recently, Lobb and Nijhoff initiated the study of variational (Lagrangian) structure of discrete integrable systems from the perspective of multi-dimensional consistency. In the present work, we follow this line of research and develop a…

Solutions of an optimization problem are sensitive to changes caused by approximations or parametric perturbations, especially in the nonconvex setting. This paper shows that solutions of substitute problems, constructed from Rockafellian…
Optimization problems with convex quadratic cost and polyhedral constraints are ubiquitous in signal processing, automatic control and decision-making. We consider here an enlarged problem class that allows to encode logical conditions and…
In this paper we study vakonomic dynamics on contact systems with nonlinear constraints. In order to obtain the dynamics, we consider a space of admisible paths, which are the ones tangent to a given submanifold. Then, we find the critical…
We exhibit infinitely many, explicit special Lagrangian isolated singularities that admit no asymptotically conical special Lagrangian smoothings. The existence/ nonexistence of such smoothings is an important component of the current…

We introduce and study em (or "emergent"), a lambda calculus style rewrite system inspired from dilations structures in metric geometry. Then we add a new axiom (convex) and explore its consequences. Although (convex) forces commutativity…
The `strong-coupling' perturbation theory over the inverse interaction constant $1/g$ near the nontrivial solution of Lagrange equation is formulated. The ordinary `week-coupling' perturbation theory over $g$ is described also to compare…
