We show that a complete Riemannian manifold, as well as time independent smooth lower order terms appearing in a first order symmetric perturbation of a Riemannian wave operator can be uniquely recovered, up to the natural obstructions,…

The narrow escape problem deals with the calculation of the mean escape time (MET) of a Brownian particle from a bounded domain through a small hole on the domain's boundary. Here we develop a formalism that allows us to evaluate the…
Given a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, we study the following anisotropic Neumann problem $$ \begin{cases} -\nabla(a(x)\nabla u)+a(x)u=\lambda a(x) u^{p-1}e^{u^p},\,\,\,\, u>0\,\,\,\,\, \textrm{in}\,\,\,\,\,…
We obtain improved local well-posedness results for the Lorentzian timelike minimal surface equation. In dimension $d=3$, for a surface of arbitrary co-dimension, we show a gain of $1/3$ derivative regularity compared to a generic equation…
We consider Riemannian optimization problems with inequality and equality constraints and analyze a class of Riemannian interior point methods for solving them. The algorithm of interest consists of outer and inner iterations. We show that,…
In this article, we will study the isoperimetric problem by introducing a mean curvature type flow in the Riemannian manifold endowed with a non-trivial conformal vector field. This flow preserves the volume of the bounded domain enclosed…
We introduce the (path-valued) Brownian frame process whose evaluation at time t is the sample path of the underlying Brownian motion run from time t-1 to t. Due to its connections with Gaussian Volterra processes and SDDEs this is an…
We study the mean curvature flow of smooth $n$-dimensional compact submanifolds with quadratic pinching in a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}^{n+m}$. Our main focus is on the case of high codimension, $m\geq 2$. We establish a codimension…
We study the rigidity of compact submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary codimension that satisfy a sharp pinching condition involving the norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. Without assuming that the…
We connect this question to a problem of estimating the probability that the image of certain random matrices does not intersect with a subset of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$. In this way, the case of a discretized Brownian motion is…
We consider the motion of a particle governed by a weakly random Hamiltonian flow. We identify temporal and spatial scales on which the particle trajectory converges to a spatial Brownian motion. The main technical issue in the proof is to…
We show well-posedness for the parabolic Anderson model on $2$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifolds. To this end we extend the notion of regularity structures to curved space, and explicitly construct the minimal structure required for…
This paper is concerned with the study of the main wave interactions in a system of conservation laws in geochemical modeling. We study the modeling of the chemical complexes on the rock surface. The presence of stable surface complexes…
We study a model for the entanglement of a two-dimensional reflecting Brownian motion in a bounded region divided into two halves by a wall with three or more small windows. We map the Brownian motion into a Markov Chain on the fundamental…
Let $A$ be a compact $d$-dimensional $C^2$ Riemannian manifold with boundary, embedded in ${\bf R}^m$ where $m \geq d \geq 2$, and let $B$ be a nice subset of $A$ (possibly $B=A$). Let $X_1,X_2, \ldots $ be independent random uniform points…
According to a version of Donsker's theorem, geodesic random walks on Riemannian manifolds converge to the respective Brownian motion. From a computational perspective, however, evaluating geodesics can be quite costly. We therefore…
The dynamics near the Lagrange equilibria $L_1$ and $L_2$ of the Circular Restricted Three-body Problem has gained attention in the last decades due to its relevance in some topics such as the temporary captures of comets and asteroids and…
We introduce a class of time dependent random fields on compact Riemannian monifolds. These are represented by time-changed Brownian motions. These processes are time-changed diffusion, or the stochastic solution to the equation involving…
