A {\em word labeled oriented graph} (WLOG) is an oriented graph $\cal G$ on vertices $X=\{ x_1,\ldots ,x_k\}$, where each oriented edge is labeled by a word in $X^{\pm1}$. WLOGs give rise to presentations which generalize Wirtinger…
A weave is the lift to the Euclidean thickened plane of a set of infinitely many planar crossed geodesics, that can be characterized by a number of sets of threads describing the organization of the non-intersecting curves, together with a…
We consider inertial waves propagating in a fluid contained in a non-axisymmetric three-dimensional rotating cavity. We focus on the particular case of a fluid enclosed inside a truncated cone or frustum, which is the volume that lies…
We consider closed curves in the hyperbolic space moving by the $L^2$-gradient flow of the elastic energy and prove well-posedness and long time existence. Under the additional penalisation of the length we show subconvergence to critical…
A virtual string is a scheme of self-intersections of a closed curve on a surface. We introduce virtual strings and study their geometric properties and homotopy invariants. We also discuss connections between virtual strings, Gauss words,…
The holographic duals of Entanglement of Purification through the Entanglement Wedge Cross Section has been a well-discussed topic in the literature recently. More general entanglement measures involving multipartite information and their…
The paper deals with systems of ordinary differential equations containing in the right-hand side controls which are discontinuous in phase variables. These controls cause the occurrence of sliding modes. If one uses one of the well-known…
Icicles with wave patterns on their surfaces can sometimes be seen hanging from roofs of buildings. Surprisingly, most of these wave patterns are at intervals of about 1 cm. The reason for this uniformity of interval has not been clarified.…
We discuss a model describing the effects of tidal dissipation on satellite's orbits. Tidal bulges are described in terms of a dumbbell, coupled to the rotation by a dissipative interaction. The assumptions on this dissipative coupling…
A wedge (i.e., a closed nonempty set in the Euclidean space stable under addition and multiplication with non-negative scalars) induces by a standard way a semi-order (a reflexive and transitive binary relation) in the space. The wedges…
A string figure is topologically a trivial knot lying on an imaginary plane orthogonal to the fingers with some crossings. The fingers prevent cancellation of these crossings. As a mathematical model of string figure we consider a knot…
Emergence is a pregnant property in various fields. It is the fact for a phenomenon to appear surprisingly and to be such that it seems at first sight that it is not possible to predict its apparition. That is the reason why it has often…
A classical wave-particle entity (WPE) can be realized experimentally as a droplet walking on the free surface of a vertically vibrating liquid bath, with the droplet's horizontal walking motion guided by its self-generated wave field.…
We revisit the gravitational lensing phenomenon using a new visualization technique. It consists in projecting the observers sky into the source plane, what gives rise to a folded and stretched surface. This provides a clear graphical tool…
In this note we study curves (arrangements) in the complex projective plane which can be considered as generalizations of free curves. We construct families of arrangements which are nearly free and possess interesting geometric properties.…
Wave localization is a ubiquitous phenomenon. It refers to situations that transmitted waves in scattering media are trapped in space and remain confined in the vicinity of the initial site until dissipated. Based on a scaling analysis, the…
On a manifold or a closed subset of a Euclidean vector space, a retraction enables to move in the direction of a tangent vector while staying on the set. Retractions are a versatile tool to perform computational tasks such as optimization,…
Wave packet scattering off an attractive well is investigated in two spatial dimensions numerically. The results confirm what was found previously for the one dimensional case. The wave scattered at large angles is a polychotomous (multiple…
A phase space formulation of the filtering process upon an incident quantum state is developed. This formulation can explain the results of both quantum interference and delayed-choice experiments without making use of the controversial…
Bigraphs and their algebra is a model of concurrency. Fuzzy bigraphs are a generalization of birgraphs intended to be a model of concurrency that incorporates vagueness. More specifically, this model assumes that agents are similar,…
