In this work, we present some easily verifiable sufficient conditions that guarantee the controllability of wave equations with non-constant coefficients. These conditions work as complements for those obtained by Peng-fei Yao in SIAM J.…
This work is concerned with the distributed controllability of the one-dimensional wave equation over non-cylindrical domains. The controllability in that case has been obtained in [Castro-Cindea-Munch, Controllability of the linear…
A widely used stochastic wave equation is the classical wave equation perturbed by a term of It\^o's integral. We show that this equation is not exactly controllable even if the controls are effective everywhere in both the drift and the…
In this paper, we study the exact controllability and stabilization of a system of two wave equations coupled by velocities with an internal, local control acting on only one equation. We distinguish two cases. In the first one, when the…
These lecture notes collect the material that I have been using over the years for various short courses on the physics of gravitational waves, first at the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris (France), and then at SISSA (Italy) and various…
These notes are based on some lectures that the author gave at the University of Campinas - UNICAMP. The notes are in Portuguese, and deal with some methods of mathematics applied to Fluid Mechanics.
The focal point of this paper is to theoretically investigate and numerically validate the effect of time delay on the exponential stabilization of a class of coupled hyperbolic systems with delayed and non-delayed dampings. The class in…

We study the wave equation in an interval with two linearly moving endpoints. We give the exact solution by a series formula, then we show that the energy of the solution decay at the rate $1/t$. We also establish observability results, at…
These notes contain part of the lectures of an introductory course on orthogonal polynomials and special functions that I gave in the joint PhD Program in Mathematics UC|UP in the academic years 2015-2016 (at University of Porto) and…
These notes are from a series of lectures given at the Universidad de Los Andes in Bogot\'a, Colombia on some topics of current interest in quantum information. While they aim to be self-contained, they are necessarily incomplete and…
In this article, we give a completely constructive proof of the observability/controllability of the wave equation on a compact manifold under optimal geometric conditions. This contrasts with the original proof of Bardos-Lebeau-Rauch,…
The aim of this note is to extend the energy decay estimates from [J. Wirth, J. Differential Equations 222 (2006) 487--514] to a broader class of time-dependent dissipation including very fast oscillations. This is achieved using…
This is a collection of the lecture notes of the three authors for a first-year graduate course on control system theory and design (ECE 515 , formerly ECE 415) at the ECE Department of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This…
The main purpose of this expository note is to give a short account of the recent developments in mathematical wave kinetic theory. After reviewing the physical theory, we explain the importance of the notion of a scaling law, which…
In these lecture notes we give an introduction to Bridgeland stability conditions on smooth complex projective varieties with a particular focus on the case of surfaces. This includes basic definitions of stability conditions on derived…
Since its elaboration by Whitham, almost fifty years ago, modulation theory has been known to be closely related to the stability of periodic traveling waves. However, it is only recently that this relationship has been elucidated, and that…
In this paper, we obtain the exact controllability for a refined stochastic wave equation with three controls by establishing a novel Carleman estimate for a backward hyperbolic-like operator. Compared with the known result, the novelty of…

We discuss the recent paper by A. Dar\'os and L.K. Arruda (On the instability of elliptic traveling wave solutions of the modified Camassa-Holm equation, J. Diff. Equat., 266 (2019), 1946-1968). Our intention is to correct some…
