We consider general relativity with cosmological constant minimally coupled to the electromagnetic field and assume that the four-dimensional space-time manifold is a warped product of two surfaces with Lorentzian and Euclidean signature…

Let X be a connected open set in n-dimensional Euclidean space, partially ordered by a closed convex cone K with nonempty interior: y > x if and only if y-x is nonzero and in K. Theorem: If F is a monotone local flow in X whose periodic…

This work presents a comprehensive study of the generalized Duffing oscillator, a fundamental model in nonlinear dynamics described by the system $$ \dot{x} = y, \quad \dot{y} = -\alpha y - \epsilon x^m - \sigma x, $$ where $\epsilon \neq…

In this paper, we study the Hamiltonian differential systems with homogeneous nonlinearity parts on $\mathbb{C}^2$. Firstly, we present a series of topological properties of polynomial Hamiltonian functions, with a particular focus on the…

In this paper, partly based on Zachos' PhD thesis, we show that the geodesic X-ray transform is stably invertible near infinity on a class of asymptotically conic manifolds which includes perturbations of Euclidean space. In particular…

In this article, using an infinite-dimensional equivariant Conley index, we prove a generalization of the profitable Liapunov center theorem for symmetric potentials. Consider the system $\ddot{q}= -\nabla U(q),$ where $U(q)$ is a…

We introduce the relativistic version of the well-known Henon's isochrone spherical models: static spherically symmetrical spacetimes in which all bounded trajectories are isochrone in Henon's sense, i.e., their radial periods do not depend…

This note provides a detailed proof of the fact that a linear vector field on a vector bundle has a flow by vector bundle isomorphisms. It implies then easily the existence of global solutions to linear non-autonomous ODE's, with a standard…

Let G be a group acting on the plane by orientation-preserving homeomorphisms. We show that if for some k>0 there is a ball of radius r > k/\sqrt{3} such that each point x in the ball satisfies |gx -hx| < k for all g, h in G, and the action…

We give a short proof of Urabe's criteria for the isochronicity of periodical solutions of the equation $\ddot{x}+g(x)=0$. We show that apart from the harmonic oscillator there exists a large family of isochronous potentials which must all…

We prove the following result: Let $(X,g_0)$ be a complete, connected 4-manifold with uniformly positive isotropic curvature and with bounded geometry. Then there is a finite collection $\mathcal{F}$ of manifolds of the form $\mathbb{S}^3…

We prove the following result: Let $(M,g_0)$ be a complete noncompact manifold of dimension $n\geq 12$ with isotropic curvature bounded below by a positive constant, with scalar curvature bounded above, and with injectivity radius bounded…

In the guiding center theory, smooth unit vectors perpendicular to the magnetic field are required to define the gyrophase. The question of global existence of these vectors is addressed using a general result from the theory of…

We consider a finitely generated virtually abelian group $G$ acting properly and without inversions on a CAT(0) cube complex $X$. We prove that $G$ stabilizes a finite dimensional CAT(0) subcomplex $Y \subseteq X$ that is isometrically…

We show that $C(X)$ admits an equivalent pointwise lower semicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm provided $X$ is Fedorchuk compact of spectral height 3. In other words $X$ admits a fully closed map $f$ onto a metric compact $Y$ such…

Motivated by recent discussions of fractons, we explore nonrelativistic field theories with a continuous global symmetry, whose charge is a spatial vector. We present several such symmetries and demonstrate them in concrete examples. They…

Consider a finite dimensional (generally reducible) polynomial representation \rho of GL_n. A projective compactification of GL_n is the closure of \rho(GL_n) in the space of all operators defined up to a factor (this class of spaces can be…

We fully develop the concept of causal symmetry introduced in Class. Quant. Grav. 20 (2003) L139. A causal symmetry is a transformation of a Lorentzian manifold (V,g) which maps every future-directed vector onto a future-directed vector. We…

Consider an operator equation $F(u)=0$ in a real Hilbert space. Let us call this equation ill-posed if the operator $F'(u)$ is not boundedly invertible, and well-posed otherwise. If $F$ is monotone $C^2_{loc}(H)$ operator, then we construct…

We study the iteration that replaces a planar hexagon by the hexagon formed by joining the midpoints of consecutive edges. While this iteration quickly drives any polygon toward a point and their shapes asymptotically regularize, we show a…
