We are concerned with the problem of global well-posedness of the 3D Navier--Stokes equations on the torus with unitary viscosity. While a full answer to this question seems to be out of reach of the current techniques, we establish a…
It is shown that, for any reduced algebraic variety in characteristic zero, one can resolve all but simple normal crossings (snc) singularities by a finite sequence of blowings-up with smooth centres which, at every step, avoids points…
We study the topological dynamics by iterations of a piecewise continuous, non linear and locally contractive map in a real finite dimensional compact ball. We consider those maps satisfying the "separation property": different continuity…
An analogue of the total variation prior for the normal vector field along the boundary of piecewise flat shapes in 3D is introduced. A major class of examples are triangulated surfaces as they occur for instance in finite element…

We study whether second-order systems can be made to behave like prescribed first-order dynamical systems through feedback control. More precisely, we study whether prescribed vector fields on compact smooth manifolds, viewed geometrically…
The continuation of point vortex dynamics after a vortex collapse is investigated by means of a regularization procedure consisting in introducing a small stochastic diffusive term, that corresponds to a vanishing viscosity. In contrast…
In this work a homoclinic-like loop of a piecewise smooth vector field passing through a typical singularity is analyzed. We have shown that such a loop is robust in one-parameter families of Filippov systems. The basin of attraction of…
