We consider billiards obtained by removing from the plane finitely many strictly convex analytic obstacles satisfying the non-eclipse condition. The restriction of the dynamics to the set of non-escaping orbits is conjugated to a subshift,…

We propose two efficient numerical methods of evaluating the luminosity distance in the spatially flat {\Lambda}CDM universe. The first method is based on the Carlson symmetric form of elliptic integrals, which is highly accurate and can…

The unitary group U(N) acts by conjugations on the space H(N) of NxN Hermitian matrices, and every orbit of this action carries a unique invariant probability measure called an orbital measure. Consider the projection of the space H(N) onto…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an unramified quadratic extension of $\mathbb{Q}_{p}$ for a fixed $p>2$. Projective general linear groups $G=\operatorname{PGL}_{2}(\mathbb{K})$ and $H=\operatorname{PGL}_{2}(\mathbb{Q}_{p})$ act transitively on…

We give a method to determine relative periodic orbits in point vortex systems: it consists mainly into perform a symplectic reduction on a fixed point submanifold in order to obtain a two-dimensional reduced phase space. The method is…

A general elliptic $N\times N$ matrix Lax scheme is presented, leading to two classes of elliptic lattice systems, one which we interpret as the higher-rank analogue of the Landau-Lifschitz equations, while the other class we characterize…

We study a lattice point counting problem for spheres arising from the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we prove an upper bound on the number of points on and near large dilates of the unit spheres generated by the anisotropic norms…

Accurate orbit modeling plays a key role in contemporary and future space missions such as GRACE and its successor GRACE-FO, GNSS, and altimetry missions. To fully exploit the technological capabilities and correctly interpret measurements,…

In this contribution, the optimal stabilization problem of periodic orbits is studied via invariant manifold theory and symplectic geometry. The stable manifold theory for the optimal point stabilization case is generalized to the case of…

We derive general relativistic Gaussian equations for osculating elements for orbits under the influence of a perturbing force without any restrictions in an underlying Schwarzschild space-time. Such a formulation provides a way to describe…

We describe an algorithm for long-term planetary orbit integrations, including the dominant post-Newtonian effects, that employs individual timesteps for each planet. The algorithm is symplectic and exhibits short-term errors that are…

The Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_n$ is obtained from the $n$-cube $Q_n$ by removing all the vertices that contain two consecutive 1s. If, in addition, the vertices that start and end with 1 are removed, the Lucas cube $\Lambda_n$ is obtained. The…

We compute the PPN parameters $\gamma$ and $\beta$ for general scalar-tensor theories in the Einstein frame, which we compare to the existing PPN formulation in the Jordan frame for alternative theories of gravity. This computation is…

This paper explores the problem of analytically approximating the orbital state for a subset of orbits in a rotating potential with oblateness and ellipticity perturbations. This is done by isolating approximate differential equations for…

A significant fraction of an exoplanet transit model evaluation time is spent calculating projected distances between the planet and its host star. This is a relatively fast operation for a circular orbit, but slower for an eccentric one.…

The Galaxy's stellar halo seems to be a tangle of disrupted systems that have been tidally stretched out into streams. Each stream approximately delineates an orbit in the Galactic force-field. In the first paper in this series we showed…

Assume that $X$ is a connected $(q+1)$-regular undirected graph of finite order $n$. Let $A$ denote the adjacency matrix of $X$. Let $\lambda_1=q+1>\lambda_2\geq \lambda_3\geq \ldots \geq \lambda_n$ denote the eigenvalues of $A$. The…

For a finite point set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, denote by $\text{diam}(P)$ the ratio of the largest to the smallest distances between pairs of points in $P$. Let $c_{d, \alpha}(n)$ be the largest integer $c$ such that any $n$-point set $P…
