The breakup of a jet of a viscous fluid with viscosity $\mu _{1}$ immersed into another viscous fluid with viscosity $\mu _{2}$ is considered in the limit when the viscosity ratio $\lambda =\mu _{1}/\mu _{2}$ is close to zero. We show that,…
We study a model for the evolution of an axially symmetric bubble of inviscid fluid in a homogeneous porous medium otherwise saturated with a viscous fluid. The model is a moving boundary problem that is a higher-dimensional analogue of…

We study the singularity created in the supercritical collapse of a spherical massless scalar field. We first model the geometry and the scalar field to be homogeneous, and find a generic solution (in terms of a formal series expansion)…
In a bounce-free spherical hydrodynamic implosion, the post-stagnation hot core plasma does not expand against the imploding flow. Such an implosion scheme has the advantage of improving the dwell time of the burning fuel, resulting in a…
We argue that a spherically symmetric traversable wormhole solution of the Einstein field equations can be supported by minimally coupled self-interacting scalar field which allows a spontaneous symmetry breaking of the field around the…
The ``no-slip'' boundary condition, i.e., zero fluid velocity relative to the solid at the fluid-solid interface, has been very successful in describing many macroscopic flows. A problem of principle arises when the no-slip boundary…
We investigate the limit behaviour of sequences of free boundary minimal hypersurfaces with bounded index and volume, by presenting a detailed blow-up analysis near the points where curvature concentration occurs. Thereby, we derive a…

We study here the structure of singularity forming in gravitational collapse of spherically symmetric inhomogeneous dust. Such a collapse is described by the Tolman-Bondi-Lema{\^i}tre metric, which is a two-parameter family of solutions to…
We consider a set of hard point particles distributed uniformly with a specified density on the positive half-line and all initially at rest. The particle masses alternate between two values, $m$ and $M$. The particles interact via…
