The constant rank constraint qualification, introduced by Janin in 1984 for nonlinear programming, has been extensively used for sensitivity analysis, global convergence of first- and second-order algorithms, and for computing the…
Using an rotation of Yuan, we observe that the gradient graph of any semiconvex function is a Liouville manifold, that is, does not admit bounded harmonic functions. As a corollary, we find that any entire solution of the fourth order…
Continuous time primal-dual gradient dynamics that find a saddle point of a Lagrangian of an optimization problem have been widely used in systems and control. While the global asymptotic stability of such dynamics has been well-studied, it…
We consider entire solutions to $L u= f(u)$ in $\RR^2$, where $L$ is a general nonlocal operator with kernel $K(y)$. Under certain natural assumtions on the operator $L$, we show that any stable solution is a 1D solution. In particular, our…
We consider a class of nonlinear ordinary differential equations of the second order with parameters. We establish conditions for perturbations of the coefficients of the equation under which the zero solution is asymptotically stable.…
In this article we study the strong unique continuation property for solutions of higher order (variable coefficient) fractional Schr\"odinger operators. We deduce the strong unique continuation property in the presence of subcritical and…
In this note, we prove that minimizers of convex functionals with a convexity constraint and a general class of Lagrangians can be approximated by solutions to fourth-order equations of Abreu type. Our result generalizes that of Le (Twisted…
We derive a Bernstein type result for the special Lagrangian equation, namely, any global convex solution must be quadratic. In terms of minimal surfaces, the result says that any global minimal Lagrangian graph with convex potential must…
We give partial affirmative answers to Landis conjecture in all dimensions for two different types of linear, second order, elliptic operators in a domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$. In particular, we provide a sharp decay criterion that…
This work obtains a fixed-point equation for the solution of linear parabolic partial differential problems based on solutions to heat problems. This is a pointwise equality, so we have required non-standard techniques that involve the…
We show that any bounded smooth helically symmetric solution $(\Bu, \Bh)$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ must be constant vectors. This is an extension of previous result \cite[Theorem 1.1]{HWXAHE} from Navier-Stokes system to MHD system. The proof…
This paper provides a theoretical background for Lagrangian Descriptors (LDs). The goal of achieving rigourous proofs that justify the ability of LDs to detect invariant manifolds is simplified by introducing an alternative definition for…
The systematization of the purely Lagrangean approach to constrained systems in the form of an algorithm involves the iterative construction of a generalized Hessian matrix W taking a rectangular form. This Hessian will exhibit as many left…
This note contains a representation formula for positive solutions of linear degenerate second-order equations of the form $$ \partial_t u (x,t) = \sum_{j=1}^m X_j^2 u(x,t) + X_0 u(x,t) \qquad (x,t) \in \mathbb{R}^N \times\, ]- \infty…
We show that determining the rank of a tensor over a field has the same complexity as deciding the existential theory of that field. This implies earlier NP-hardness results by H{\aa}stad~\cite{H90}. The hardness proof also implies an…
We deal with the higher-order fractional Laplacians by two methods: the integral method and the system method. The former depends on the integral equation equivalent to the differential equation. The latter works directly on the…
In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…
We characterize the existence of the $L^1$ solutions of the truncated moments problem in several real variables on unbounded supports by the existence of the maximum of certain concave Lagrangian functions. A natural regularity assumption…
The spherically symmetric static solutions are searched for in some f(T) models of gravity theory with a Maxwell term. To do this, we demonstrate that reconstructing the Lagrangian of f(T) theories is sensitive to the choice of frame, and…
