We find that to the dynamics of a given dissipative system a $p=1$ differential form can be associated with a general decomposition into a potential term and a non-potential residual part. If the residual part is absent the form is closed…

Let x(t) be a trajectory of the gradient of a real analytic function and suppose that x_0 is a limit point of x(t). We prove the gradient conjecture of R. Thom which states that the secants of x(t) at x_0 have a limit. Actually we show a…

The level of a function f on an n-dimensional space encloses a region. The volume of a region between two such levels depends on both levels. Fixing one of them the volume becomes a function of the remaining level. We show that if the…
