In \cite{WWY}, the authors provided an implicit variational principle for the contact Hamilton's equations \begin{align*} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \dot{x}=\frac{\partial H}{\partial p}(x,u,p),\\ \dot{p}=-\frac{\partial H}{\partial…

The Landau theory of phase transitions has been productively applied to phase transitions that involve rotational symmetry breaking, such as the transition from an isotropic fluid to a nematic liquid crystal. It even can be applied to the…
We introduce the homogeneous and piecewise multilinear extensions and the eigenvalue problem for locally Lipschitz function pairs, in order to develop a systematic framework for relating discrete and continuous min-max problems. This also…

We highlight some of the recent advances in the application of chiral effective field theory (chiral EFT) with baryons to the $\pi N$ scattering process. We recall some problems that cast doubt on the applicability of chiral EFT to $\pi N$…
Motivated by Ruf-Sani's recent work, we prove an Adams type inequality and a singular Adams type inequality in the whole four dimensional Euclidean space. As applications of those inequalities, a class of elliptic partial differential…
