We consider variational problems that model the bending behavior of curves that are constrained to belong to given hypersurfaces. Finite element discretizations of corresponding functionals are justified rigorously via Gamma-convergence.…
In [Lacave, IHP, ana, to appear (2008)] the author considered the two dimensional Euler equations in the exterior of a thin obstacle shrinking to a curve and determined the limit velocity. In the present work, we consider the same problem…
The elastica is a curve in $\R^3$ that is stationary under variations of the integral of the square of the curvature. Elastica is viewed as a dynamical system that arises from the second order calculus of variations, and its quantization is…
In this paper we consider and compare special classes of static theories of gradient elasticity, nonlocal elasticity, gradient micropolar elasticity and nonlocal micropolar elasticity with only one gradient coefficient. Equilibrium…
Let $E_\lambda$ be the Legendre elliptic curve of equation $Y^2=X(X-1)(X-\lambda)$. We recently proved that, given $n$ linearly independent points $P_1(\lambda), \dots,P_n(\lambda)$ on $E_\lambda$ with coordinates in…
In this paper, as a result of a theorem of Serre on congruence properties, a complete solution is given for an open question (see the text) presented recently by Kim, Koo and Park. Some further questions and results on similar types of…
The paper is a part of our program to build up a theory of couting immersed nodal curve on algebraic surfaces, as an enumerative Riemann-Roch theory (outlined in math.AG/0405113). In this paper, we discuss the excess intersection theory of…
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we set up the theory of elastic matter sources within the framework of general relativity in a self-contained manner. The discussion is primarily based on the presentation of Carter and Quintana but…
We give a solution of Plateau's problem for singular curves possibly having self-intersections. The proof is based on the solution of Plateau's problem for Jordan curves in very general metric spaces by Alexander Lytchak and Stefan Wenger…
We review briefly the characteristic topological data of Calabi--Yau threefolds and focus on the question of when two threefolds are equivalent through related topological data. This provides an interesting test case for machine learning…
We consider random Gaussian eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the three-dimensional flat torus, and investigate the number of nodal intersections against a straight line segment. The expected intersection number, against any smooth curve,…
We give necessary and sufficient topological conditions for a simple closed curve on a real rational surface to be approximable by smooth rational curves. We also study approximation by smooth rational curves with given complex…
A general description of elastic matter and the long-range elastic interaction is propose. The type of the far-field interaction is determined by the way of breaking in the continuum distribution of the elastic field produced by topological…
Retaining the combinatorial Euclidean structure of a regular icosahedron, namely the 20 equiangular (planar) triangles, the 30 edges of length 1, and the 12 different vertices together with the incidence structure, we investigate variations…
A general description of the long-range elastic interaction is proposed. The far-field type of the interaction is determined by the way of symmetry breaking of the distribution of the elastic field produced by the topological defect as…
The log-aesthetic curve has a significant factor in the field of aesthetic design to meet the high industrial requirements. It has much exceptional property and a large number of research papers are published, since its introduction. It can…
A novel formulation of the Lie-Darboux method of obtaining the Riccati equations for the spatial curves in Euclidean three-dimensional space is presented. It leads to two Riccati equations that differ by the sign of torsion. The case of…
We present alternative postulates for Euclidean geometry whose merit is that they lead to a new class of invariants and associated geometries for real finite-dimensional unital associative algebras.
We study fluid flow at the interfaces between elastic solids with randomly rough, self-affine surfaces. We show by numerical simulation that elastic deformation lowers the relative contact area at which contact patches percolate in…
For the class of quasi-periodic solutions of the vortex filament equation, we study connections between the algebro-geometric data used for their explicit construction and the geometry of the evolving curves. We give a complete description…
