In this work, we consider the stability of solitons for the KdV equation below the energy space, using spatially-exponentially-weighted norms. Using a combination of the $I$-method and spectral analysis following Pego and Weinstein, we are…
For a small polarised deformation of a constant scalar curvature K\"ahler manifold, under some cohomological vanishing conditions, we prove that K-polystability along nearby polarisations implies the existence of a constant scalar curvature…
We obtain the instability of Type (II) Lawson-Osserman cones in Euclidean spaces, and thus provide a family of (uncountably many) unstable solutions with singularity to the Dirichlet problem for minimal graphs of high codimension versus…
Highly stratified shear layers are rendered unstable even at high stratifications by Holmboe instabilities when the density stratification is concentrated in a small region of the shear layer. These instabilities may cause mixing in highly…
The stability and instability of quantum motion is studied in the context of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED). It is shown that the Jaynes-Cummings dynamics can be unstable in the regime of chaotic walking of an atom in the quantized…
We study the destabilization of a round liquid jet by a fast annular gas stream. We measure the frequency of the shear instability waves for several geometries and air/water velocities. We then carry out a linear stability analysis, and…
The Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability is studied in a non-Newtonian dusty plasma with an experimentally verified model [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 98}, 145003 (2007)] of shear flow rate dependent viscosity. The shear flow profile used here is a…
We discuss the possibility that astrophysical accretion disks are dynamically unstable to non-axisymmetric disturbances with characteristic scales much smaller than the vertical scale height. The instability is studied using three methods:…
The mechanism describing the recently developed notion of kernel gravity waves (KGWs) is reviewed and such structures are employed to interpret the unstable dynamics of an example stratified plane parallel shear flow. This flow has constant…
We give a moment map interpretation of some relatively balanced metrics. As an application, we extend a result of S. K. Donaldson on constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics to the case of extremal metrics. Namely, we show that a given…
We consider superfluid helium inside a container which rotates at constant angular velocity and investigate numerically the stability of the array of quantized vortices in the presence of an imposed axial counterflow. This problem was…
For any polarized variety (X,L), we show that test configurations and, more generally, R-test configurations (defined as finitely generated filtrations of the section ring) can be analyzed in terms of Fubini-Study functions on the Berkovich…
We construct extremal metrics on the total space of certain destabilising test configurations for strictly semistable K\"ahler manifolds. This produces infinitely many new examples of manifolds admitting extremal K\"ahler metrics. It also…
We use the correspondence between extremal Sasaki structures and weighted extremal Kahler metrics defined on a regular quotient of a Sasaki manifold, established by the first two authors, and Lahdili's theory of weighted K-stability in…
The linear stability of a shear-thinning, viscoelastic fluid undergoing any of the canonical rectilinear shear flows, viz., plane Couette flow and pressure-driven flow through a channel or a tube is analyzed in the creeping-flow limit using…
We give an algebraic proof of the equivalence of equivariant K-semistability (resp. equivariant K-polystability) with geometric K-semistability (resp. geometric K-polystability). Along the way we also prove the existence and uniqueness of…
In this paper, by introducing a wider class of one-parameter group actions for test configurations, we have a stronger form of the definition of K-stability. This allows us to obtain some key step of my preceding work in proving that…
Let $\text{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \mathbb{P}^n$ be a K\"ahler manifold obtained by blowing up a complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ along a line $\mathbb{P}^1$. We prove that $\text{Bl}_{\mathbb{P}^1} \mathbb{P}^n$ does not admit constant…
In this paper, we study constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) metrics on complete non-compact K\"ahler--Einstein manifolds. We give sufficient conditions under which a cscK perturbation of a K\"ahler--Einstein metric must remain…
Consider a general linear Hamiltonian system $\partial_{t}u=JLu$ in a Hilbert space $X$. We assume that$\ L: X \to X^{*}$ induces a bounded and symmetric bi-linear form $\left\langle L\cdot,\cdot\right\rangle $ on $X$, which has only…
