In this paper we study the behavior of geodesics on cones over arbitrary $C^3$-smooth closed Riemannian manifolds. We show that the geodesic flow on such cones admits first integrals whose values uniquely determine almost all geodesics…
Pinning and depinning of wavefronts are ubiquitous features of spatially discrete systems describing a host of phenomena in physics, biology, etc. A large class of discrete systems is described by overdamped chains of nonlinear oscillators…
The space of unit flows on a directed acyclic graph (DAG) is known to admit regular unimodular triangulations induced by framings of the DAG. Amply framed DAGs and their triangulated flow polytopes have recently been connected with the…
Any smooth surface in R^3 may be flattened along the z-axis, and the flattened surface becomes close to a billiard table in R^2 . We show that, under some hypotheses, the geodesic flow of this surface converges locally uniformly to the…
In this paper we show that in some cases the E.Hopf rigidity phenomenon admits quantitative interpretation. More precisely we estimate from above the measure of the set $\mathcal{M}$ swept by minimal orbits. These estimates are sharp, i.e.…
We prove some restriction theorems for flat homogeneous surfaces of codimension greater than one.
Let $E$ be a hermitian complex vector bundle over a compact K\"ahler surface $X$ with K\"ahler form $\omega$, and let $D$ be an integrable unitary connection on $E$ defining a holomorphic structure $D^{\prime\prime}$ on $E$. We prove that…
We provide a test for numerical simulations, for several two dimensional incompressible flows, that appear to develop sharp fronts. We show that in order to have a front the velocity has to have uncontrolled velocity growth.
We report on density waves in granular material, investigated both experimentally and numerically. When granular material falls through a long narrow pipe one observes recurrent clogging. The kinetic energy of the falling particles…
New CP1-soliton behaviour on a flat torus is reported. Defined by the Weierstrass elliptic function and numerically-evolved from rest, each soliton splits up in two lumps which eventually reunite, divide and get back together again, etc..…
We prove that the locus of Hilbert schemes of n points on a projective K3 surface is dense in the moduli space of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds of that deformation type. The analogous result for generalized Kummer manifolds…
The wetting of a charged wedge-like wall by an electrolyte solution is investigated by means of classical density functional theory. As in other studies on wedge wetting, this geometry is considered as the most simple deviation from a…
We consider a smooth Euclidean solid cone endowed with a smooth homogeneous density function used to weight Euclidean volume and hypersurface area. By assuming convexity of the cone and a curvature-dimension condition we prove that the…
We address ring-shaped surface waves supported by defocusing thermal media with circular cross-section. Such waves exist because of the balance between repulsion from the interface and deflection of light from the bulk medium due to…
We report the observation of changes in the wave turbulence properties of gravity-capillary surface waves due to a finite depth effect. When the fluid depth is decreased, a hump is observed on the wave spectrum in the capillary regime at a…
This paper studies the structural implications of constant vorticity for steady three-dimensional internal water waves. It is known that in many physical regimes, water waves beneath vacuum that have constant vorticity are necessarily two…
Recent observations suggest that Carina and other nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxies are surrounded by unbound stars tidally stripped by the Milky Way. We run high-resolution N-Body simulations of dwarf galaxies orbiting within the Milky Way…
In this paper we present a new approach to Morse theory based on the de Rham-Federer theory of currents. The full classical theory is derived in a transparent way. The methods carry over uniformly to the equivariant and the holomorphic…
Two-dimensional Euler flows, in the plane or on simple surfaces, possess a material invariant, namely the scalar vorticity normal to the surface. Consequently, flows with piecewise-uniform vorticity remain that way, and moreover evolve in a…
We give a definition of `coherent tangent bundles', which is an intrinsic formulation of wave fronts. In our application of coherent tangent bundles for wave fronts, the first fundamental forms and the third fundamental forms are considered…
