We consider wave equations on Lorentzian manifolds in case of low regularity. We first extend the classical solution theory to prove global unique solvability of the Cauchy problem for distributional data and right hand side on smooth…
We consider the stabilization problem on a manifold with boundary for a wave equation with measure-valued linear damping. For a wide class of measures, containing Dirac masses on hypersurfaces as well as measures with fractal support, we…
We establish Strichartz estimates (both reversed and some direct ones), pointwise decay estimates, and weighted decay estimates for the linear wave equation in dimension two with an almost scaling-critical potential, in the case when there…
A geometric approach to understanding recursion relations for scattering amplitudes is developed. We achieve this by studying intersection numbers of triangulated accordiohedra presented as hyperplane arrangements. The cancellation of…
This paper is concerned with a reconstruction method for multiple moving point/dipole wave sources. We assume that the number, locations, and magnitudes/moments of wave sources are unknown, and consider the problem to reconstruct these…
We demonstrate by explicit calculation of the DeWitt-like measure in two-dimensional quantum Regge gravity that it is highly non-local and that the average values of link lengths $l, <l^n>$, do not exist for sufficient high powers of $n$.…
For a one-dimensional wave equation, we consider a mixed problem in a curvilinear half-strip. The initial conditions have a first-kind discontinuity at one point. The mixed problem models the problem of a longitudinal impact on a finite…
This work focuses on the length correction due to radiation effect of a duct discontinuity or at the surface of a perforated plate in the linear acoustic domain and at large wavelengths. Two results are obtained from the comparison of…
In the space of orientation-preserving circle maps that are not necessarily surjective nor injective, the rotation number does not vary continuously. Each map where one of these discontinuities occurs is itself discontinuous and we can…
We construct a family of explicit rotational solutions to the nonlinear governing equations for water waves, describing edge waves propagating over a plane-sloping beach. A detailed analysis of the edge wave dynamics and of the run-up…
Surface charges and their algebra in interacting Lagrangian gauge field theories are investigated by using techniques from the variational calculus. In the case of exact solutions and symmetries, the surface charges are interpreted as a…
We use moving frame techniques to derive a notion of curvature for a class of piecewise-smooth Riemannian metrics called Regge metrics, showing that it is a measure that simultaneously satisfies the (weak) Cartan structure equations and the…
We present a new approach to Reggeization of gauge amplitudes based on the universal properties of their infrared singularities. Using the "dipole formula", a compact ansatz for all infrared singularities of massless amplitudes, we study…
For a metric space $(A,d)$, and a set $\Sigma$ of equations, some quantities are introduced that measure the size of discontinuities that must occur in operations satisfying $\Sigma$ (identically) on $A$. We are able to evaluate these…
This paper complements the study of the wave equation with discontinuous coefficients initiated in \cite{DGL:22} in the case of time-dependent coefficients. Here we assume that the equation coefficients are depending on space only and we…
The physical consistency of the match of piecewise-$C^0$ metrics is discussed. The mathematical theory of gravitational discontinuity hypersurfaces is generalized to cover the match of regularly discontinuous metrics. The mean-value…
Deformation theory for 2-dimensional dynamical triangulations with N vertices is discussed by exploiting the geometry of the moduli space of Euclidean polygons. Such an analysis provides an explicit connection among Regge surfaces,…
An analytical discontinuity is reported in what was thought to be the discontinuity-free exact nonparaxial vortex beam phasor obtained within the complex source/sink model. This discontinuity appears for all odd values of the orbital…
We numerically study a triangulated surface model in R^2 by taking into account a viewpoint of string model. The models are defined by a mapping X from a two-dimensional surface M to R^2, where the mapping X and the metric g of M are the…
An important, if relatively less well known aspect of the singularity theorems in Lorentzian Geometry is to understand how their conclusions fare upon weakening or suppression of one or more of their hypotheses. Then, theorems with modified…
