In the context of a special class of tensor-multi-scalar theories of gravity for which the target-space metric admits an isometry under which the theory is invariant, we present rotating vacuum solutions, namely with no matter fields. These…

In this work we use standard Hamiltonian-system techniques in order to study the dynamics of three vortices with alternating charges in a confined Bose-Einstein condensate. In addition to being motivated by recent experiments, this system…
Within $R^2$ gravity, we study the linear stability of strongly gravitating spherically symmetric configurations supported by a polytropic fluid. All calculations are carried out in the Jordan frame. It is demonstrated that, as in general…
Stationary equilibria of point vortices with arbitrary choice of circulations in a background flow are studied. Differential equations satisfied by generating polynomials of vortex configurations are derived. It is shown that these…

We show the existence of drifting orbits for certain perturbations of non-convex Hamiltonian systems with several degrees of freedom. These orbits remain in the vicinity of resonant surfaces where the action variables can undergo changes…
We study the Euler equation on the rotating sphere in the case where the absolute vorticity is initially sharply concentrated around several points. We follow the literature already concerning vorticity confinement for the planar Euler…
Stable assemblages of localized vortices exist which have particle-like properties, such as mass, and which can interact with one another when they closely approach. In this article I calculate the mass of these localized states and…
