We study isoperimetric problems modeled on the liquid drop model, with nonlocal interactions under a volume constraint. While balls are natural critical points, we show that, for an unbounded sequence of radii, non-spherical solutions…
The Euler--Plateau problem, proposed by \cite{gm}, concerns a soap film spanning a flexible loop. The shapes of the film and the loop are determined by the interactions between the two components. In the present work, the Euler--Plateau…
This paper develops stability and stabilization results for systems of fully coupled jump diffusions. Such systems frequently arise in numerous applications where each subsystem (component) is operated under the influence of other…
We prove a generalization of Reifenberg's isoperimetric inequality. The main result of this paper is used to establish existence of a minimizer for an anisotropically-weighted area functional among a collection of surfaces which satisfies a…
Although standard planar double bubbles are stable in the sense that the second variation of the perimeter functional is non-negative for all area-preserving perturbations the question arises whether they are dynamically stable. By…
We present a new stabilization technique for multiscale convection diffusion problems. Stabilization for these problems has been a challenging task, especially for the case with high Peclet numbers. Our method is based on a constraint…
Pressure oscillations at small time steps have been known to be an issue in poroelasticity simulations. A review of proposed approaches to overcome this problem is presented. Critical time steps are specified to alleviate this in finite…
We discuss several classical and recent proofs of the isoperimetric inequality and the Sobolev inequality.
We present a model for pore stabilization in membranes without surface tension. Whereas an isolated pore is always unstable (since it either shrinks tending to re-seal or grows without bound til to membrane disintegration), it is shown that…
A gas bubble trapped in water by an oscillating acoustic field is expected to either shrink or grow on a diffusive timescale, depending on the forcing strength and the bubble size. At high ambient gas concentration this has long been…
Gaussian noise stability results have recently played an important role in proving results in hardness of approximation in computer science and in the study of voting schemes in social choice. We prove a new Gaussian noise stability result…
In this article, we investigate electrostatic systems with a nonzero cosmological constant on compact manifolds with boundary. We establish new geometric properties for electrostatic manifolds in higher dimensions, extending previous…
We investigate crystalline order on a two-dimensional paraboloid of revolution by assembling a single layer of millimeter-sized soap bubbles on the surface of a rotating liquid, thus extending the classic work of Bragg and Nye on planar…
It was proved by Almgren that among boundaries whose mean curvature is bounded from above, perimeter is uniquely minimized by balls. We obtain sharp stability estimates for Almgren's isoperimetric principle and, as an application, we deduce…
Shock wave induced cavitation experiments and atomic force microscopy measurements of flat polyamide and hydrophobized silicon surfaces immersed in water are performed. It is shown that surface nanobubbles, present on these surfaces, do not…
We improve known upper bounds for the minimal dispersion of a point set in the unit cube and its inverse in both the periodic and non-periodic settings. Some of our bounds are sharp up to logarithmic factors.
We study the dynamics of a gas bubble in a fluid with surface tension, initially near a spherical equilibrium. While there are many studies and applications of radial bubble dynamics, the theory of general deformations from a spherical…
We build on the stability-preserving school choice model introduced and studied recently in [MV18]. We settle several of their open problems and we define and solve a couple of new ones.
In this paper, we consider the existence of nodal solutions with two bubbles to the slightly subcritical problem with the fractional Laplacian \begin{equation*} \left\{\aligned &(-\Delta)^su=|u|^{p-1-\varepsilon}u\ \ \mbox{in}\ \Omega &u=0\…
Late-stage coarsening in off-critical vapour-liquid phase separation is re-examined. In the limit of bubbles of vapour distributed throughout a continuous liquid phase, it is argued that coarsening proceeds via inertial hydrodynamic bubble…
