In this paper, we first give a convenient formula for bi-Laplacian on a sphere and the complete description of its eigenvalues, buckling eigenvalues, and their corresponding eigenfunctions. We then show that the radial (or rotationally…
The main goal of this paper is to construct the so-called Birkhoff-type solutions for linear ordinary differential equations with a spectral parameter. Such solutions play an important role in direct and inverse problems of spectral theory.…
Einstein's field equations with cosmological constant are analysed for a static, spherically symmetric perfect fluid having constant density. Five new global solutions are described. One of these solutions has the Nariai solution joined on…
We study spherically symmetric static empty space solutions in $R+\varepsilon/R$ model of $f(R)$ gravity. We show that the Schwarzschild metric is an exact solution of the resulted field equations and consequently there are general…
In this paper we prove that the Benjamin-Ono equation, when considered on the torus, is an integrable (pseudo)differential equation in the strongest possible sense: it admits global Birkhoff coordinates on the space $L^2(\T)$. These are…
On a smooth, closed Riemannian manifold $\left(M,g\right)$ of dimension $n\ge3$, we consider the stationary Schr\"odinger equation $\Delta_gu+h_0u=\left|u\right|^{2^*-2}u$, where $\Delta_g:=-\text{div}_g\nabla$, $h_0\in C^1\left(M\right)$…
A recent result by Haggag and Hajj-Boutros is reviewed within the framework of self-similar space-times, extending, in some sense, their results and presenting a family of metrics consisting of all the static spherically symmetric perfect…
In this paper we consider parabolic problems with stress tensor depending only on the symmetric gradient. By developing a new approximation method (which allows to use energy-type methods typical for linear problems) we provide an approach…
We construct static axially symmetric solutions of SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills-dilaton theory. Like their spherically symmetric counterparts, these solutions are nonsingular and asymptotically flat. The solutions are characterized by the…
We study parabolic operators H = $\partial$t -- div $\lambda$,x A(x, t)$\nabla$ $\lambda$,x in the parabolic upper half space R n+2 + = {($\lambda$, x, t) : $\lambda$ > 0}. We assume that the coefficients are real, bounded, measurable,…
We show that the isomorphism class of a two-step solvable Lie poset subalgebra of a semisimple Lie algebra is determined by its dimension. We further establish that all such algebras are absolutely rigid.
We prove that Maxwell fields of asymptotically flat solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations inherit the stationarity of the metric.
Inspired by the recent results toward Birkhoff conjecture (a rigidity property of billiards in ellipses), we discuss two rigidity properties of conics. The first one concerns symmetries of an analog of polar duality associated with an oval,…
We critically examine the Roberts homothetic solution for the spherically symmetric Einstein-scalar field equations in double null coordinates, and show that the Roberts solution indeed solves the field equations only for one non-trivial…
Garret Birkhoff's HSP theorem characterizes the classes of models of algebraic theories as those being closed with respect to homomorphic images, subalgebras, and products. In particular, it implies that an algebra $\mathbf{B}$ satisfies…
The spherically symmetric static solutions are searched for in some f(T) models of gravity theory with a Maxwell term. To do this, we demonstrate that reconstructing the Lagrangian of f(T) theories is sensitive to the choice of frame, and…
We solve the rigidity problem for uniform Roe algebras, by showing that two uniformly locally finite metric spaces with isomorphic uniform Roe algebras are bijectively coarsely equivalent.
We examine stable solutions of the following symmetric system on a complete, connected, smooth Riemannian manifold $\mathbb{M}$ without boundary, \begin{equation*} -\Delta_g u_i = H_i(u_1,\cdots,u_m) \ \ \text{on} \ \ \mathbb{M},…
We show that the geodesic period spectrum of a Riemannian 2-orbifold all of whose geodesics are closed depends, up to a constant, only on its orbifold topology and compute it. In the manifold case we recover the fact proved by Gromoll,…
We consider the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $$ i u_t +\Delta^2 u+\lambda|x|^{-b}|u|^\alpha u = 0, $$ where $\lambda=\pm 1$ and $\alpha$, $b>0$. In the subctritical case, we improve the global well-posedness…
