We prove regularity, global existence, and convergence of Lagrangian mean curvature flows in the two-convex case. Such results were previously only known in the convex case, of which the current work represents a significant improvement.…
In this chapter, we illustrate the advantage of variational principles for modeling water waves from an elementary practical viewpoint. The method is based on a `relaxed' variational principle, i.e., on a Lagrangian involving as many…
We present a variational approach which shows that the wave functions belonging to quantum systems in different potential landscapes, are pairwise linked to each other through a generalized continuity equation. This equation contains a…
The irreducible representations of the extended Galilean group are used to derive infinite sets of symmetric and asymmetric second-order differential equations with constant coeffcients. All derived equations are local and their Lagrangians…

The Lagrangian formulation for the irrotational wave motion is straightforward and follows from a Lagrangian functional which is the difference between the kinetic and the potential energy of the system. In the case of fluid with constant…

This article studies the mean curvature flow of Lagrangian submanifolds. In particular, we prove the following global existence and convergence theorem: if the potential function of a Lagrangian graph in T^{2n} is convex, then the flow…
In [SW2], we defined a generalized mean curvature vector field on any almost Lagrangian submanifold with respect to a torsion connection on an almost K\"ahler manifold. The short time existence of the corresponding parabolic flow was…

It is well-known that the equations for a simple fluid can be cast into what is called their Lagrange formulation. We introduce a notion of a generalized Lagrange formulation, which is applicable to a wide variety of systems of partial…
A Lagrangian gravity-wave parameterization (MS-GWaM, Multi-Scale Gravity-Wave Model) that allows for fully transient wave-mean-flow interaction and horizontal propagation is applied to orographic gravity waves for the first time. Both…

We consider two-fluid flow problems in an Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) framework. The purpose of this work is twofold. First, we address the problem of the moving contact line, namely the line common to the two fluids and the wall.…
