Let $\varphi$ be a smooth conservative diffeomorphism of a compact surface $S$ and let $\Lambda$ be a mixing horseshoe of $\varphi$. Given a smooth real function $f$ defined on $S$, we define for points $\eta$ in the unstable Cantor set of…
A beautiful theorem of Zeckendorf states that every positive integer has a unique decomposition as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. Such decompositions exist more generally, and much is known about them. First, for any positive…
We study the vanishing viscosity limit of the one-dimensional Burgers equation near nondegenerate shock formation. We develop a matched asymptotic expansion that describes small-viscosity solutions to arbitrary order up to the moment the…
Spatially inhomogeneous functions, which may be smooth in some regions and rough in other regions, are modelled naturally in a Bayesian manner using so-called Besov priors which are given by random wavelet expansions with…
An additive process is a stochastic process with independent increments and that is continuous in probability. In this paper, we study the almost sure Hausdorff and Fourier dimension of the graph of continuous additive additive processes…
Let $x=[a_1(x),a_2(x),\ldots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of $x\in[0,1)$. We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of \begin{equation*}E_{even}=\{x\in[0,1)\colon a_{2n}(x)\to\infty\ (n\to\infty)\}.\end{equation*} is 1/2. In general,…
Given a connected open set $U\ne\emptyset$ in $ R^d$, $d\ge 2$, a relatively closed set $A$ in $U$ is called \emph{unavoidable in $U$}, if Brownian motion, starting in $x\in U\setminus A$ and killed when leaving $U$, hits $A$ almost surely…
In this paper we establish rigorously that the family of Burgers vortices of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation is stable for small Reynolds numbers. More precisely, we prove that any solution whose initial condition is a small…
We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\R^n\to\R^m, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal projections which guarantee that the Hausdorff dimension formula $\dim A\cap P_{\lambda}^{-1}\{u\}=s-m$ holds generically for measurable…
The Betke-Henk-Wills conjecture proposes a sharp upper bound for the lattice point enumerator $G(K, \Lambda)$ of a convex body in terms of its successive minima. While the conjecture remains open for general convex bodies in dimensions $d…
We prove that every bounded stable solution of \[ (-\Delta)^{1/2} u + f(u) =0 \qquad \mbox{in }\mathbb R^3\] is a 1D profile, i.e., $u(x)= \phi(e\cdot x)$ for some $e\in \mathbb S^2$, where $\phi:\mathbb R\to \mathbb R$ is a nondecreasing…
We prove the existence of generalized characteristics for weak, not necessarily entropic, solutions of Burgers' equation \[ \partial_t u +\partial_x \frac{u^2}{2} =0, \] whose entropy productions are signed measures. Such solutions arise in…
We have shown in a recent collaboration that the Cauchy problem for the multi-dimensional Burgers equation is well-posed when the initial data u(0) is taken in the Lebesgue space L 1 (R n), and more generally in L p (R n). We investigate…
In this paper, we explore a nonlocal inviscid Burgers equation. Fixing a parameter $h$, we prove existence and uniqueness of the local solution of the equation $\InviscidBurgersNonlocal{u}$ with periodic initial condition. We also explore…
We show that if $u$ is a Leray-Hopf weak solution to the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations with hyperdissipation $\alpha \in (1,5/4)$ then there exists a set $S\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ such that $u$ remains bounded outside of $S$ at each…
Spatially periodic complex-valued solutions of the Burgers and KdV-Burgers equations are studied in this paper. It is shown that for any sufficiently large time T, there exists an explicit initial data such that its corresponding solution…
The Jarn\'ik-Besicovitch theorem is a fundamental result in metric number theory which concerns the Hausdorff dimension for certain limsup sets. We discuss the analogous problem for liminf sets. Consider an infinite sequence of positive…
We derive from a class of microscopic asymmetric interacting particle systems on ${\mathbb Z}$, with long range jump rates of order $|\cdot|^{-(1+\alpha)}$ for $0<\alpha<2$, different continuum fractional SPDEs. More specifically, we show…
We consider the set of points with high pointwise emergence for $C^{1+\alpha}$ diffeomorphisms preserving a hyperbolic measure. We find a lower bound on the Hausdorff dimension of this set in terms of unstable Hausdorff dimension of the…
In this paper we study the geometry of the attractors of holomorphic maps with an irrationally indifferent fixed point. We prove that for an open set of such holomorphic systems, the local attractor at the fixed point has Hausdorff…
