We investigate the existence of collision-free nonconstant periodic solutions of the $N$-vortex problem in domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}$. These are solutions $z(t)=(z_1(t),\dots,z_N(t))$ of the first order Hamiltonian system \[…

Anti-selfdual Lagrangians on a state space lift to path space provided one adds a suitable selfdual boundary Lagrangian. This process can be iterated by considering the path space as a new state space for the newly obtained anti-selfdual…

We study the variational structure of the complex $k$-Hessian equation on bounded domain $X\subset \mathbb C^n$ with boundary $M=\partial X$. We prove that the Dirichlet problem $\sigma_k (\partial \bar{\partial} u) =0$ in $X$, and $u=f$ on…

We deal with a planar differential system of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \, u' = h(t,v), \\ \, v' = - \lambda a(t) g(u), \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $h$ is $T$-periodic in the first variable and strictly increasing in the…
In this paper, we develop a numerical multiscale method to solve the fractional Laplacian with a heterogeneous diffusion coefficient. When the coefficient is heterogeneous, this adds to the computational costs. Moreover, the fractional…
