A novel flow state consisting of two oppositely travelling waves (TWs) with oscillating amplitudes has been found in the counterrotating Taylor-Couette system by full numerical simulations. This structure bifurcates out of axially standing…
We study some Dirichlet problem for a $p$--Laplacian type operator in the setting of Orlicz--Zygmund space $L^q\log^{-\alpha}L(\Omega,\mathbb R^N)$, $q >1$ and $\alpha>0$. More precisely, our aim is to establish which assuptions on the…
A system of hyperbolic conservation laws $$ \partial_t u + \partial_x \partial_u Q = 0, \quad Q = u_1^3 / 3 + u_1 u_2^2, \qquad u = u(x,t) \in\mR^2, $$ as well as its viscous regularization $$ \partial_t u + \partial_x \partial_u Q = \calM…
Recent work in the literature has studied fourth-order elliptic operators on manifolds with boundary. This paper proves that, in the case of the squared Laplace operator, the boundary conditions which require that the eigenfunctions and…
We present first results on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator associated with the $1$-Laplace operator in $L^1$. In particular, we show that this operator can be realized as a sub-differential operator in $L^1\times L^{\infty}$ of a…
We study theoretically the collective E$\otimes$e Jahn-Teller-Dicke distortion in a system of trapped ions. We focus in the limit of infinite range interactions in which an ensemble of effective spins interacts with two collective…
We consider Helmholtz problems with a perturbed wave speed, where the single-signed perturbation is linear in a parameter $z$. Both the wave speed and the perturbation are allowed to be discontinuous (modelling a penetrable obstacle). We…
We present a waveform relaxation version of the Dirichlet-Neumann and Neumann-Neumann methods for parabolic problems. Like the Dirichlet-Neumann method for steady problems, the method is based on a non-overlapping spatial domain…
It has been empirically observed that eigenfunctions of Laplace's equation $-\Delta \phi = \lambda \phi$ with Neumann boundary conditions sometimes localize near the boundary of the domain if that boundary is rough (say, fractal). This has…
The aim of this work is to study trapped waves and their collisions between two topographic obstacles for the forced Korteweg-de Vries equation. Numerical simulations show that solitary waves remain trapped bouncing back and forth between…
In this paper we continue the study initiated in [FGN] concerning the obstacle problem for a class of parabolic non-divergence operators structured on a set of vector fields X = {X_1,...,X_q} in R^n with C^1-coefficients satisfying…
We assess when electron trapping nonlinearity is expected to be important in Langmuir waves. The basic criterion is that the inverse of the detrapping rate nu_d of electrons in the trapping region of velocity space must exceed the bounce…
Eight different refinements of trapped surfaces are proposed, of three basic types, each intended as potential stability conditions. Minimal trapped surfaces are strictly minimal with respect to the dual expansion vector. Outer trapped…
Due to the need for higher reliability and performance from RF circuits, multi-port reflectometers are increasingly used as low-overhead impedance monitors. In this work, using periodic structures as multi-ports is proposed. Periodic…
In this paper we derive formulae for the semiclassical tunneling in the presence of a constant magnetic field in 2 dimensions. The `wells' in the problem are identical discs with Neumann boundary conditions, so we study the magnetic Neumann…
We compute low-lying eigenmodes of the gauge covariant Laplace operator on the lattice at finite temperature. For classical configurations we show how the lowest mode localizes the monopole constituents inside calorons and that it hops upon…
We show how pattern formation in Faraday waves may be manipulated by varying the harmonic content of the periodic forcing function. Our approach relies on the crucial influence of resonant triad interactions coupling pairs of critical…
Eigenmodes are studied for a fluid-filled rectangular tank containing one or more vertical barriers, and on which either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions are prescribed on the lateral walls. In the case where the tank contains a…
This paper describes a technique to determine the linear well-posedness of a general class of vector elliptic problems that include a steady interface, to be determined as part of the problem, that separates two subdomains. The interface…
