There are many interesting dynamical systems in which degenerate invariant tori appear. We give conditions under which these degenerate tori have stable and unstable invariant manifolds, with stable and unstable directions having arbitrary…
We consider the optimization problem of maximizing the $k$-th Laplacian eigenvalue, $\lambda_{k}$, over flat $d$-dimensional tori of fixed volume. For $k=1$, this problem is equivalent to the densest lattice sphere packing problem. For…
In this paper we are proving the following fact. Let P be an arbitrary simple polygon, and let S be an arbitrary set of 15 points inside P. Then there exists a subset T of S that is not "visually discernible", that is, T is not equal to the…
An important problem that arises in many engineering applications is the boundary value problem for ordinary differential equations. There have been many computational methods proposed for dealing with this problem. The convergence of the…
We illustrate with several new applications the power and elegance of the Bendixson Dulac theorem to obtain upper bounds of the number of limit cycles for several families of planar vector fields. In some cases we propose to use a function…
When the planar circular restricted 3-body problem (RTBP) is periodically perturbed, families of unstable periodic orbits break up into whiskered tori, with most tori persisting into the perturbed system. In this study, we 1) develop a…
Quasi-periodic motions on invariant tori of an integrable system of dimension smaller than half the phase space dimension may continue to exists after small perturbations. The parametric equations of the invariant tori can often be computed…
We give an algorithm for deciding whether a planar polynomial differential system has a first integral which factorizes as a product of defining polynomials of curves with only one place at infinity. In the affirmative case, our algorithm…
In this article, we study the generalized Poincare problem from the opposite perspective, by establishing lower bounds on the degree of the vector field in terms of invariants of the variety.
This paper considers computational methods that split a vector field into three components in the case when both the vector field and the split components might be unbounded. We first employ classical Taylor expansion which, after some…
The present paper is devoted to the study of the maximum number of limit cycles bifurcated from the periodic orbits of the quadratic isochronous center $\dot{x}=-y+\frac{16}{3}x^{2}-\frac{4}{3}y^{2},\dot{y}=x+\frac{8}{3}xy$ by the averaging…
Uniqueness in the Calder\'on problem in dimension bigger than two was usually studied under the assumption that conductivity has bounded gradient. For conductivities with unbounded gradients uniqueness results have not been known until…
We apply the Thom-Milnor theorem to obtain the upper bounds on the amount of isolated (1) critical points of a potential generated by several fixed point charges(Maxwell's problem on point charges), (2) critical points of SINR, (3) critical…
We develop several notions of multiplicity for linear factors of multivariable polynomials over different arithmetics (hyperfields). The key example is multiplicities over the hyperfield of signs, which encapsulates the arithmetic of…
Invariant tori play a fundamental role in the dynamics of symplectic and volume-preserving maps. Codimension-one tori are particularly important as they form barriers to transport. Such tori foliate the phase space of integrable,…
We proved the existence of invariant tori in differentiable Hamiltonian vector fields without action-angle variables. It is a generalization of the result of [Llave, 2005] that deals with analytic vector fields.
We consider autonomous Hamiltonian systems and present an algorithm to compute at the same time partially hyperbolic invariant tori (whiskered tori), as well as high-order expansions of their stable and unstable manifolds. Such whiskered…
The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity r of a complex, projective variety V is an upper bound for the degrees of the hypersurfaces necessary to cut out V. In this note we give a bound for r when V is left invariant by a vector field on the…
In order to understand the parameter space of monic and centered complex polynomial vector fields of degree d in the complex plane, decomposed by the combinatorial classes of the vector fields, it is interesting to know the number of loci…
