The conventional definition of extremality of a finite collection of sets is extended by replacing a fixed point (extremal point) in the intersection of the sets by a collection of sequences of points in the individual sets with the…
Recently, the problem of boundary stabilization for unstable linear constant-coefficient reaction-diffusion equation on N-balls has been solved by means of the backstepping method. However, the extension of this result to spatially-varying…
We extend effective field theory to the case of spontaneous symmetry breaking in genuinely finite quantum systems such as small superfluid systems, molecules or atomic nuclei, and focus on deformed nuclei. In finite superfluids, symmetry…
Hamilton's equations with noise and friction possess a hidden supersymmetry, valid for time-independent as well as periodically time-dependent systems. It is used to derive topological properties of critical points and periodic trajectories…
Initially this paper reviews the mathematical issues surrounding the hydrostatic (HPE) and non-hydrostatic (NPE) primitive equations that have been used extensively in numerical weather prediction and climate modelling. Cao and Titi (2005,…
The theory of singularities and its broad ramifications, especially catastrophe theory, have found fertile ground in some areas of physics (e.g., caustics, wave optics) for their applications. In the context of quantum many-body theory,…
Collapse, or a gravitational-like phase transition is studied in a microcanonical ensemble of particles with an attractive $1/r^{\alpha}$ potential. A mean field continuous integral equation is used to determine a saddle-point density…
As a serious attempt for constructing a new foundation for describing micro-incidents from a local causal standpoint, I explained before that each micro-entity can be assumed to be composed of a probability field joined to a particle…
Coupling of rupture processes in solids with waves also propagating in fluids is a prominent phenomenon arising during tectonic earthquakes. It is executed here in a single `monolithic' model which can asymptotically capture both damageable…
We develop a well-posedness theory for second order systems in bounded domains where boundary phenomena like glancing and surface waves play an important role. Attempts have previously been made to write a second order system consisting of…
Most current methods for detecting anomalies in text concentrate on constructing models solely relying on unlabeled data. These models operate on the presumption that no labeled anomalous examples are available, which prevents them from…
The existence and multiplicity of solutions to a quasilinear, elliptic partial differential equation (PDE) with singular non-linearity is analyzed. The PDE is a recently derived variant of a canonical model used in the modeling of…
A geometrically invariant concept of fast-slow vector fields perturbed by transport terms (describing molecular diffusion processes) is proposed in this paper. It is an extension of our concept of singularly perturbed vector fields to…

We present a fast and efficient method for studying vacuum stability constraints in multi-scalar theories beyond the Standard Model. This method is designed for a reliable use in large scale parameter scans. The minimization of the scalar…
Given a finite set $X$ of points in $R^n$ and a family $F$ of sets generated by the pairs of points of $X$, we determine volumetric and structural conditions for the sets that allow us to guarantee the existence of a positive-fraction…
We discuss a scenario of ``the path to physics at the Planck scale'' where todays theory of the interactions of elementary particles, the so called Standard Model (SM), emerges as a low energy effective theory describing the long distance…
In this work, we consider the singular set in the thin obstacle problem with weight $|x_{n+1}|^a$ for $a\in (-1, 1)$, which arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (a non-local problem). We develop…
In these lectures, a variety of non-equilibrium transport phenomena are introduced that all involve, in some way, elastic manifolds being driven through random media. A simple class of models is studied focussing on the behavior near to the…
