The planar visible fold is a simple singularity in piecewise smooth systems. In this paper, we consider singularly perturbed systems that limit to this piecewise smooth bifurcation as the singular perturbation parameter $\epsilon\rightarrow…

The envelope of straight lines affine normal to a plane curve C is its affine evolute; the envelope of the affine lines tangent to C is the original curve, together with the entire affine tangent line at each inflexion of C. In this paper,…

We introduce bendlets, a shearlet-like system that is based on anisotropic scaling, translation, shearing, and bending of a compactly supported generator. With shearing being linear and bending quadratic in spatial coordinates, bendlets…

We consider here the category of diffeological vector pseudo-bundles, and study a possible extension of classical differential geometric tools on finite dimensional vector bundles, namely, the group of automorphisms, the frame bundle, the…

Our concern is the study of degenerate Hopf bifurcation of smooth planar dynamical systems near isolated singular points. To do so, we propose to split up the definition of degeneracy into two types. Degeneracy of first kind shall means…

We study equisingular deformation problems for curves and surfaces in algebraic families, with particular emphasis on situations where nodal behavior is no longer generic. Extending classical Severi theory, we develop deformation--theoretic…

A subcritical pattern-forming system with nonlinear advection in a bounded domain is recast as a slow-fast system in space and studied using a combination of geometric singular perturbation theory and numerical continuation. Two types of…

A wave-front in a space-time $\cal M$ is a family of null geodesics orthogonal to a smooth spacelike two-surface in $\cal M$; it is of some interest to know how a wave-front can fail to be a smoothly immersed surface in $\cal M$. In this…

We study planar flows without non-wandering points and prove several properties of these flows in relation with their prolongational relation. The main results of this article are that a planar (regular) wandering flow has no generalized…

An asymptotic interface equation for directional solidification near the absolute stabiliy limit is extended by a nonlocal term describing a shear flow parallel to the interface. In the long-wave limit considered, the flow acts…

A fake octagon is a genus two translation surface with only one singular point and the same periods as the octagon. Existence of infinitely many fakes was first established by McMullen in 2007, and more generally follows from dynamical…

We study a class of one-dimensional full branch maps admitting two indifferent fixed points as well as critical points and/or unbounded derivative. Under some mild assumptions we prove the existence of a unique invariant mixing absolutely…

We establish sufficient conditions for existence of curves minimizing length as measured with respect to a degenerate metric on the plane while enclosing a specified amount of Euclidean area. Non-existence of minimizers can occur and…

We consider the motion of the interface separating two domains of the same fluid that moves with different velocity along the tangential direction of the interface. We assume that the fluids occupying the two domains are of constant…

This paper contributes to the theory of singularities of meromorphic linear ODEs in traceless $2\times2$ cases, focusing on their deformations and confluences. It is divided into two parts: The first part addresses individual singularities…

For ideal fluid flow with zero surface tension and gravity, it remains unknown whether local singularities on the free surface can develop in well-posed initial value problems with smooth initial data. This is so despite great advances over…

A family of three-dimensional travelling waves for flow through a pipe of circular cross section is identified. The travelling waves are dominated by pairs of downstream vortices and streaks. They originate in saddle-node bifurcations at…

The problem of enumerating meanders -- pairs of simple plane curves with transverse intersections -- was formulated about forty years ago and is still far from solved. Recently, it was discovered that meanders admit a factorization into…

We prove that, in a two-dimensional strip, a steady flow of an ideal incompressible fluid with no stationary point and tangential boundary conditions is a shear flow. The same conclusion holds for a bounded steady flow in a half-plane. The…

In this study, we generalize double tangent bundles to double jet bundles. We present a secondary vector bundle structure on a 1-jet of a vector bundle. We show that 1-jet of a vector bundle carries two vector bundle structures, namely…
