This paper summarises a numerical investigation of phase mixing in time-independent Hamiltonian systems that admit a coexistence of regular and chaotic phase space regions, allowing also for low amplitude perturbations idealised as periodic…
This paper proposes a framework for analysis of generalized homogeneous control systems under state quantization. In particular, it addresses the challenge of maintaining finite/fixed-time stability of nonlinear systems in the presence of…
The C. Neumann system describes a particle on the sphere S^n under the influence of a potential that is a quadratic form. We study the case that the quadratic form has l+1 distinct eigenvalues with multiplicity. Each group of m_\sigma equal…
We describe the Lorentzian version of the Kapovitch-Millson phase space for polyhedra with $N$ faces. Starting with the Schwinger representation of the $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ Lie algebra in terms of a pair of complex variables (or spinor), we…
A time inhomogeneous generalized Mehler semigroup on a real separable Hilbert space ${\mathds{H}}$ is defined through $$ p_{s,t}f(x)=\int_{\mathds{H}} f(U(t,s)x+y)\,\mu_{t,s}(dy), \quad t\geq s, \ x\in{\mathds{H}} $$ for every bounded…
Scaling describes how a given quantity $Y$ that characterizes a system varies with its size $P$. For most complex systems it is of the form $Y\sim P^\beta$ with a nontrivial value of the exponent $\beta$, usually determined by regression…
This paper studies hamiltonization of nonholonomic systems using geometric tools. By making use of symmetries and suitable first integrals of the system, we explicitly define a global 2-form for which the gauge transformed nonholonomic…
Zone diagram is a variation on the classical concept of a Voronoi diagram. Given n sites in a metric space that compete for territory, the zone diagram is an equilibrium state in the competition. Formally it is defined as a fixed point of a…
A one-dimensional model of a dispersive medium with intrinsic loss, compensated by a parametric drive, is proposed. It is a combination of the well-known parametrically driven nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger (NLS) and complex cubic…
A Schottky group in PSL(2, C) induces an open hyperbolic handlebody and its ideal boundary is a closed orientable surface S whose genus is equal to the rank of the Schottky group. This boundary surface is equipped with a (complex)…
For a given symmetrically normed ideal I on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H, we study the rectifiable distance in the classical Banach-Lie unitary group $$ U_I={u is a unitary operator in H, u-1\in I}. $$ We prove that one-parameter…
We aim to study the classical Rosenthal-Szasz inequality for a plane whose geometry is given by a norm. This inequality states that the bodies of constant width have the largest perimeter among all planar convex bodies of given diameter. In…
We write down the Poisson structure for a relativistic particle where the Lorentz group does not act canonically, but instead as a Poisson-Lie group. In so doing we obtain the classical limit of a particle moving on a noncommutative space…
We prove that Ahlfors 2-regular quasisymmetric images of the Euclidean plane are bi-Lipschitz images of the plane if and only if they are uniformly bi-Lipschitz homogeneous with respect to a group. We also prove that certain geodesic spaces…
In this paper we study a path-following problem on $R^3$ with a non-holonomic constraint. The geometric structure associated to the velocity constraint is explored, and general principles for constructing guiding vector fields are obtained,…
We consider an over-determined Falconer type problem on $(k+1)$-point configurations in the plane using the group action framework introduced in \cite{GroupAction}. We define the area type of a $(k+1)$-point configuration in the plane to be…
We consider the problem of reconstruction of planar domains from their moments. Specifically, we consider domains with boundary which can be represented by a union of a finite number of pieces whose graphs are solutions of a linear…
Let $q>1$, $(1-\frac{1}{q})a\geq 1$ and let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be Lipschitz domain. We show that planar mappings in the second order Sobolev space $f\in W^{2,q}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^2)$ with $|J_f|^{-a}\in L^1(\Omega)$ are…
We prove the holomorphic rigidity conjecture of Teichm\"{u}ller space which loosely speaking states that the action of the mapping class group uniquely determines the Teichm\"{u}ller space as a complex manifold. The method of proof is…
The symmetrization map $\pi:\mathbb C^2\rightarrow \mathbb C^2$ is defined by $ \pi(z_1,z_2)=(z_1+z_2,z_1z_2). $ The closed symmetrized bidisc $\Gamma$ is the symmetrization of the closed unit bidisc $\overline{\mathbb D^2}$, that is, \[…
