A calculation of the no-boundary wave-function of the universe is put forward for a spacetime with negative curvature. A semi-classical Robertson-Walker approximation is attempted and two solutions to the field equations, one Lorentzian and…
A way of constructing mathematically correct quantum geometrodynamics of a closed universe is presented. The resulting theory appears to be gauge-noninvariant and thus consistent with the observation conditions of a closed universe, by that…
The existence of periodic waves propagating downstream on the surface of a two-dimensional infinitely deep water under gravity is established for a general class of vorticities. When reformulated as an elliptic boundary value problem in a…
In this article, we study the no-boundary wave function in scalar-tensor gravity with various potentials for the non-minimally coupled scalar field. Our goal is to calculate probabilities for the scalar field - and hence the effective…
In this paper we prove the breakdown of the two-dimensional stable and unstable manifolds associated to two saddle-focus points which appear in the unfoldings of the Hopf-zero singulariry. The method consists in obtaining an asymptotic…
We consider the question of asymptotic observables in cosmology. We assume that string theory contains a landscape of vacua, and that metastable de Sitter regions can decay to zero cosmological constant by bubble nucleation. The asymptotic…
Transitions between multiple stable states of nonlinear systems are ubiquitous in physics, chemistry, and beyond. Two types of behaviors are usually seen as mutually exclusive: unpredictable noise-induced transitions and predictable…
The well-known Stokes waves refer to periodic traveling waves under the gravity at the free surface of a two dimensional full water wave system. In this paper, we prove that small-amplitude Stokes waves with infinite depth are nonlinearly…

Reduction in effective spacetime dimensionality can occur in field-theory models more general than the widely studied dimensional reductions based on technically consistent truncations. Situations where wavefunction factors depend…
We show that intrinsic noise can induce spatio-temporal phenomena such as Turing patterns and travelling waves in a Brusselator model with nonlocal interaction terms. In order to predict and to characterize these quasi-waves we analyze the…
We analyze situations where a saddle-node bifurcation occurs on a fractal basin boundary. Specifically, we are interested in what happens when a system parameter is slowly swept in time through the bifurcation. Such situations are known to…
We study the generalized stationary Stokes system in a bounded domain in the plane equipped with perfect slip boundary conditions. We show natural stability results in oscillatory spaces, i.e. H\"older spaces and Campanato spaces including…
We present a novel cosmological model in which scalar field matter in a biaxial Bianchi IX geometry leads to a non-singular `pancaking' solution: the hypersurface volume goes to zero instantaneously at the `Big Bang', but all physical…
This paper investigates the stability of interfacial long waves in two-layer plane Couette flow using a nonlinear, nonlocal asymptotic model derived from the Navier-Stokes equations and valid for thin upper layers. Nonlocality enters…
This paper provides asymptotic structure at spatial infinity of plane steady Stokes flow in exterior domains when the obstacle is rotating with constant angular velocity. The result shows that there is no longer Stokes paradox due to the…
We study the Maxwell quasinormal spectrum on asymptotically anti-de Sitter black holes with a set of two Robin type boundary conditions, by requiring the energy flux to vanish at asymptotic infinity. Focusing, for illustrative purposes, on…
