We study the class $HQ(\mathbb{D})$, the set of harmonic quasiconformal automorphisms of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ in the complex plane, endowed with the topology of uniform convergence. Several important topological properties of this…

We examine the buckling shape and critical compression of confined inhomogeneous composite sheets lying on a liquid foundation. The buckling modes are controlled by the bending stiffness of the sheet, the density of the substrate, and the…

Conformal blocks are the central ingredient of the conformal bootstrap programme. We elaborate on our recent observation that uncovered a relation with wave functions of an integrable Calogero-Sutherland Hamiltonian in order to develop a…

We study numerical conformal mapping of multiply connected planar domains with boundaries consisting of unions of finitely many circular arcs, so called polycircular domains. We compute the conformal capacities of condensers defined by…

Let $E$ be a closed polar subset of $\mathbb{C}$. In this short note, we use elementary potential theoretic tools to show that any conformal map on $\mathbb{C}\setminus{E}$ is necessarily a M\"{o}bius map. As a consequence we obtain that…

Continuous conformal transformation minimizes the conformal energy. The convergence of minimizing discrete conformal energy when the discrete mesh size tends to zero is an open problem. This paper addresses this problem via a careful error…

Using the density-matrix renormalization-group, we investigate the critical behavior of the anisotropic Heisenberg chains with spins up to $S=9/2$. We show that through the relations arising from the conformal invariance and the DMRG…

We study the compactness in $L^{1}_{loc}$ of the semigroup mapping $(S_t)_{t > 0}$ defining entropy weak solutions of general hyperbolic systems of conservation laws in one space dimension. We establish a lower estimate for the Kolmogorov…

When studying the causal propagation of a field in a globally hyperbolic spacetime M, one often wants to express the physical intuition that it has compact support in spacelike directions, or that its support is a spacelike compact set. We…

We use numerical simulation to investigate and analyze the way that rigid disks and spheres arrange themselves when compressed next to incommensurate substrates. For disks, a movable set is pressed into a jammed state against an ordered…

In this work, we study a new notion involving convergence of microstructures represented by matrices $B^\epsilon$ related to the classical $H$-convergence of $A^\epsilon$. It incorporates the interaction between the two microstructures.…

Concentration-compactness is used to prove compactness of maximising sequences for a variational problem governing symmetric steady vortex-pairs in a uniform planar ideal fluid flow, where the kinetic energy is to be maximised and the…

We study the problem of prescribing the Gaussian curvature on the disk and the geodesic curvature on its boundary via a conformal change of the metric. In this paper the case of negative Gaussian curvature is treated, a regime for which the…

In this work we study three topologies defined over the same set: the hedgehog. As the name suggests, the hedgehog can be described as a set of spines identified at a single point. Among others, we give a proof of the Kowalsky hedgehog…

We evaluate a strongly regularised version of the Hastings-Levitov model HL$(\alpha)$ for $0\leq \alpha<2$. Previous results have concentrated on the small-particle limit where the size of the attaching particle approaches zero in the…
