The aim of this paper is to study a wide class of non-convex sweeping processes with moving constraint whose translation and deformation are represented by regulated functions, i.e., functions of not necessarily bounded variation admitting…

The equations of motion describing buoyant fluids are often simplified using a set of approximations proposed by J. Boussinesq one century ago. To resume, they consist in assuming constant fluid properties, incompressibility and…

Many natural and engineering systems are simultaneously subjected to a driving force and a stabilizing force. The interplay between the two forces, especially for highly nonlinear systems such as fluid flow, often results in surprising…

We show that in the two-dimensional case, every objective, isotropic and isochoric energy function which is rank-one convex on $\mathrm{GL}^+(2)$ is already polyconvex on $\mathrm{GL}^+(2)$. Thus we negatively answer Morrey's conjecture in…

Numerical simulations of rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are presented for both no slip and free slip boundaries. The goal is to find a criterion distinguishing convective flows dominated by the Coriolis force from those nearly…

We construct by using B-spline functions a class of copulas that includes the Bernstein copulas arising in Baker's distributions. The range of correlation of the B-spline copulas is examined, and the Frechet--Hoeffding upper bound is proved…

The problem of finding bounds of time-averaged characteristics of dynamical systems, such as the bound on the mean energy dissipation rate in a turbulent flow governed by incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, is considered. It is shown…

The impact of wettability on the co-moving velocity of two-fluid flow in porous media is analyzed herein. The co-moving velocity, developed by Roy et al. (2022), is a novel representation of the flow behavior of two fluids through porous…

There are given conditions for represention of a function of many arguments as the difference of convex functions.

We develop a geometric flow framework to investigate two classical shape functionals: the torsional rigidity and the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian. First, by constructing novel deformation paths governed by height-stretching…

We study loops of symplectic diffeomorphisms of closed symplectic manifolds. Our main result, which is valid for a large class of symplectic manifolds, shows that the flux of a symplectic loop vanishes whenever its orbits are contractible.…

Generalisations of the bent property of a boolean function are presented, by proposing spectral analysis with respect to a well-chosen set of local unitary transforms. Quadratic boolean functions are related to simple graphs and it is shown…

An attempt is made to formulate Gaiotto's S-duality relations in an explicit quantitative form. Formally the problem is that of evaluation of the Racah coefficients for the Virasoro algebra, and we approach it with the help of the matrix…

We consider a cantilevered (clamped-free) beam in an axial potential flow. Certain flow velocities may bring about a bounded-response instability in the structure, termed {\em flutter}. As a preliminary analysis, we employ the theory of…

Let us say that a convex function f\colon C\to[-\infty,\infty] on a convex set C\subseteq\R is infimum-stable if, for any sequence (f_n) of convex functions f_n\colon C\to[-\infty,\infty] converging to f pointwise, one has \inf_C…

The s-th forward difference sequence that tends to zero, inspired by the consecutive terms of a sequence approaching zero, is examined in this study. Functions that take sequences satisfying this condition to sequences satisfying the same…

The recently proposed universal relations between the moments of the polydispersity distributions of a phase-separated weakly polydisperse system are analyzed in detail using the numerical results obtained by solving a simple density…

We extend short-time existence and stability of the Dirichlet energy flow as proven in a previous paper by the authors to a broader class of energy functionals. Furthermore, we derive some monotonely decreasing quantities for the Dirichlet…

We prove that certain quotients of entire functions are characteristic functions. Under some conditions, the probability measure corresponding to a characteristic function of that type has a density which can be expressed as a generalized…

Here we develop a regularity theory for a polyconvex functional in $2\times2-$dimensional compressible finite elasticity. In particular, we consider energy minimizers/stationary points of the functional…
