A simple derivation of the static Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) equation is given from an energy variational principle. The result is then generalized heuristically to the time-dependent GP form. With this as background, a number of different…
When a fluid surface adheres to a substrate, the location of the contact line adjusts in order to minimize the overall energy. This adhesion balance implies boundary conditions which depend on the characteristic surface deformation…

We define a contact metric structure on the manifold corresponding to a second order ordinary differential equation $d^2y/dx^2=f(x,y,y')$ and show that the contact metric structure is Sasakian if and only if the 1-form $\frac{1}{2}(dp-fdx)$…
