We present a new matrix-valued isospectral ordinary differential equation that asymptotically block-diagonalizes $n\times n$ zero-diagonal Jacobi matrices employed as its initial condition. This o.d.e.\ features a right-hand side with a…
Newman and Rovelli have used singular Hamilton-Jacobi transformations to reduce the phase space of general relativity in terms of the Ashtekar variables. Their solution of the gauge constraint cannot be inverted and indeed has no Minkowski…
Imbert and Monneau proved that Soner's formulation of state constraint problems on a bounded interval is equivalent to the so-called flux-limited formulation they introduced recently. In the multidimensional setting, we show this result for…
Bi-Hamiltonian hierarchies of soliton equations are derived from geometric non-stretching (inelastic) curve flows in the Hermitian symmetric spaces $SU(n+1)/U(n)$ and $SO(2n)/U(n)$. The derivation uses Hasimoto variables defined by a moving…
The theory of turbulent Newtonian fluids turns out that the choice of the boundary condition is a relevant issue, since it can modify the behavior of the fluid by creating or avoiding a strong boundary layer. In this work we study…
The algebraic properties of drift-flux two-phase fluids models without gravitational and wall friction forces are studied. More precisely, for the two fluids we consider equation of states of polytropic gases. We perform a classification…

The 1-d Schrodinger flow on 2-sphere, the Gauss-Codazzi equation for flat Lagrangian submanifolds in C^n, and the space-time monopole equation are all examples of geometric soliton equations. The linear systems with a spectral parameter…
The aim of this work is to study, from an intrinsic and geometric point of view, second-order constrained variational problems on Lie algebroids, that is, optimization problems defined by a cost functional which depends on higher-order…
In this article we consider the numerical modeling and simulation via the phase field approach of two-phase flows of different densities and viscosities in superposed fluid and porous layers. The model consists of the…
This paper investigates curve flows on the light-cone in the 3-dimensional Minkowski space. We derive the Harnack inequality for the heat flow and present a detailed classification of space-periodic solitons for a third-order curvature…
Lie scale invariance is used to reduce the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations to non-linear ordinary equations. This yields a formulation in terms of logarithmic spirals as independent variables. We give the equations when the spirals…
Extended formulations are an important tool in polyhedral combinatorics. Many combinatorial optimization problems require an exponential number of inequalities when modeled as a linear program in the natural space of variables. However, by…
In this paper we continue our study of bifurcations of solutions of boundary-value problems for symplectic maps arising as Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. These have been shown to be connected to catastrophe theory via generating functions and…
A three-by-three matrix spectral problem for AKNS soliton hierarchy is proposed and the corresponding Bargmann symmetry constraint involved in Lax pairs and adjoint Lax pairs is discussed. The resulting nonlinearized Lax systems possess…
For problems with multiple bodies, the current integral approach needs the use of auxiliary potential functions in order to have an individual force formula for each body. While the singularity approach, based on an extension of the…
This paper presents bilateral control laws for one-dimensional(1-D) linear 2x2 hyperbolic first-order systems (with spatially varying coefficients). Bilateral control means there are two actuators at each end of the domain. This situation…

We consider a free boundary problem of compressible-incompressible two-phase flows with phase transitions in general domains of $N$-dimensional Euclidean space (e.g. whole space; half-spaces; bounded domains; exterior domains). The…
The construction of a cost minimal network for flows obeying physical laws is an important problem for the design of electricity, water, hydrogen, and natural gas infrastructures. We formulate this problem as a mixed-integer non-linear…
