Our object of study is non smooth vector fields on $\R^2$. We apply the techniques of geometric singular perturbations in non smooth vector fields after regularization and a blow$-$up. In this way we are able to bring out some results that…
We consider the Cauchy problem of a system of quadratic derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations which was introduced by M. Colin and T. Colin (2004) as a model of laser-plasma interaction. For the nonperiodic setting, the authors…
In this paper, we initiate the study of the instability of naked singularities without symmetries. In a series of papers, Christodoulou proved that naked singularities are not stable in the context of the spherically symmetric Einstein…
Black hole configurations offer insights on the non-linear aspects of gravitational theories, and can suggest testable predictions for modifications of General Relativity. In this work, we examine exact black hole configurations in…
We develop a well-posedness theory for second order systems in bounded domains where boundary phenomena like glancing and surface waves play an important role. Attempts have previously been made to write a second order system consisting of…
We develop a new perturbation method to study the dynamics of massive tensor fields on extremal and near-extremal static black hole spacetimes in arbitrary dimensions. On such backgrounds, one can classify the components of massive tensor…
We consider the initial value problem (IVP) associated to a Boussinesq type system. After rewriting the system in an equivalent form of coupled KdV-type equations, we prove that this is locally well-posed in $(H^s(\R^2))^4$, $s>3/2$, using…
We revisit the problem of deriving local gauge invariance with spontaneous symmetry breaking in the context of an effective field theory. Previous derivations were based on the condition of tree-order unitarity. However, the modern point of…
We study, in the periodic setting, the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem associated to the operator $P(t, D_{x}, D_{t}) = D_{t} - a_{2}(t) \Delta_{x} + \sum_{j = 1}^{N} a_{1, j}(t) D_{x_{j}} + a_{0}(t)$, with $T> 0$, $t \in [0, T]$ and…
We discuss the ill-posed Cauchy problem for elliptic equations, which is pervasive in inverse boundary value problems modeled by elliptic equations. We provide essentially optimal stability results, in wide generality and under…
We study the large time behavior of solutions of first-order convex Hamilton-Jacobi Equations of Eikonal type set in the whole space. We assume that the solutions may have arbitrary growth. A complete study of the structure of solutions of…
We consider inflationary models in which vector fields are responsible for part or eventually all of the primordial curvature perturbation \zeta. Such models are phenomenologically interesting since they naturally introduce anisotropies in…
We study the stability under linear perturbations of a class of static solutions of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in $D=n+2$ dimensions with spatial slices of the form $\Sigma_{\k}^n \times {\mathbb R}^+$, $\Sigma_{\k}^n$ an $n-$manifold of…
We demonstrate that black holes and stars in general relativity can be destabilized by perturbations of non-minimally coupled vector fields. Focusing on static and spherically symmetric backgrounds, our analysis shows that black holes with…
We consider interaction of vortices in the vector complex Ginzburg--Landau equation (CVGLE). In the limit of small field coupling, it is found analytically that the interaction between well-separated defects in two different fields is…
The general relativistic dynamics of a wide class of self-interacting, self-gravitating homogeneous scalar fields models is analyzed. The class is characterized by certain general conditions on the scalar field potential, which include both…
