In this note we show how to find the stable model of a one-parameter family of elliptic surfaces with sections. More specifically, we perform the log Minimal Model Program in an explicit manner by means of toric geometry, in each such one…
This paper is a sequel to my paper "Introducing the Plaid Model". In this paper it is shown that the plaid model has unbounded polygonal paths for every irrational parameter. This result parallels my result that outer billiards on kites has…

The discovery of binary and triple asteroids in addition to the execution of space missions to minor celestial bodies in the past several years have focused increasing attention on periodic orbits around irregular-shaped celestial bodies.…
We consider systems of "pinned balls," i.e., balls that have fixed positions and pseudo-velocities. Pseudo-velocities change according to the same rules as those for velocities of totally elastic collisions between moving balls. The times…
We study a class of planar billiards having the remarkable property that their phase space consists up to a set of zero measure of two invariant sets formed by orbits moving in opposite directions. The tables of these billiards are tubular…
We proof a uniqueness and periodicity theorem for bounded solutions of uniformly elliptic equations in certain unbounded domains.
We treat the circular and elliptic restricted three-body problems in inertial frames as periodically forced Kepler problems with additional singularities and explain that in this setting the main result of [4] is applicable. This guarantees…
In this paper, we study a broad class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Hermitian manifolds. On one hand, under the optimal structural assumptions we derive $C^{2,\alpha}$-estimate for solutions of the equations on closed Hermitian…
We study the dynamics of two bodies moving on elliptic Keplerian orbits around a fixed center of attraction and interacting only by means of elastic or inelastic collisions. We show that there exists a bounded invariant region: for suitable…
We present new families of bound, closed, nonelliptical orbits that are supported by various spherical potentials in clear contradiction to Newton's and Bertrand's theorems. We calculate analytically some typical closed orbits of…
The paper deals with the study of the existence result for a Kirchhoff elliptic system with additive right hand side and variable parameters by using the sub-super solutions method. Our study is the second result of our previous once in…
A family of discontinuous symplectic maps on the cylinder is considered. This family arises naturally in the study of nonsmooth Hamiltonian dynamics and in switched Hamiltonian systems. The transformation depends on two parameters and is a…
We consider self-similar potential flow for compressible gas with polytropic pressure law. Self-similar solutions arise as large-time asymptotes of general solutions, and as exact solutions of many important special cases like Mach…
In this work, applying general results from averaging theory, we find periodic orbits for a class of Hamiltonian systems $H$ whose potential models the motion of elliptic galaxies.
We study uniqueness of Dirichlet problems of second order divergence-form elliptic systems with transversally independent coefficients on the upper half-space in absence of regularity of solutions. To this end, we develop a substitute for…
Cosmological billiards arise as a map of the solution of the Einstein equations, when the most general symmetry for the metric tensor is hypothesized, and points are considered as spatially decoupled in the asymptotic limit towards the…
We consider the inverse problem of determining some class of nonlinear terms appearing in an elliptic equation from boundary measurements. More precisely, we study the stability issue for this class of inverse problems. Under suitable…
We consider an elliptic system with regular H{\"o}lderian weight and exponential nonlinearity or with weight and boundary singularity, and, Dirichlet condition. We prove the boundedness of the volume of the solutions to those systems on the…
