A surface is considered flexible if it allows a continuous deformation that preserves both metric and smoothness. We introduce a novel construction method, called 'base + crinkle,' for generating a broad class of non-self-intersecting…

Young's and shear moduli and Poisson's ratio of polycrystalline solids consisting of 2D quadratic and 3D cubic randomly oriented grains of the same size and shape is studied. Considered polycrystals are initially unstrained. It is shown…

In this paper, we propose simple numerical algorithms for partial differential equations (PDEs) defined on closed, smooth surfaces (or curves). In particular, we consider PDEs that originate from variational principles defined on the…

We derive an infinitesimal rigidity lemma for the strain tensor of surfaces with their curvatures changing sign. As an application, we obtain the optimal constant in the first Korn inequality scales like $h^{4/3}$ for such shells of mixed…

The purpose of the present paper is to show few examples of nonlinear PDEs (mostly with strong geometric features) for which there is a hidden convex structure. This is not only a matter of curiosity. Once the convex structure is…

A dual variational principle is defined for the nonlinear system of PDE describing the dynamics of dislocations in elastic solids. The dual variational principle accounting for a specified set of initial and boundary conditions for a…

Using continuum elasticity theory, we describe the elastic behavior of helical coils with an asymmetric double-helix structure and identify conditions, under which they become very rigid. Theoretical insight gained for macro-structures…

Structure and dynamics of an active polymer on a smooth cylindrical surface are studied by Brownian dynamics simulations. The effect of active force on the polymer adsorption behavior and the combined effect of chain mobility, length N,…

This paper investigates a generalized hyperbolic circle packing (including circles, horocycles or hypercycles) with respect to the total geodesic curvatures on the surface with boundary. We mainly focus on the existence and rigidity of…

Nematic surfaces are thin fluid structures, ideally two-dimensional, endowed with an in-plane nematic order. In 2012, two variational models have been introduced by Giomi [11] and by Napoli and Vergori [29,28]. Both penalize the area of the…

It is conjectured that all decomposable (i.e. interior can be triangulated without adding new vertices) polyhedra with vertices in convex position are infinitesimally rigid and only recently has it been shown that this is indeed true under…

Let $N$ be a Riemannian, neutral or Lorentzian $4$-dimensional space form. In this paper, the expressions of the equations of Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci of a space-like or time-like surface in $N$ given in [7] are naturally understood in…

In this paper, maximum principles for Euclidean and hyperbolic discrete conformal structures on polyhedral surfaces are established. These maximum principles unify and generalize the maximum principles for vertex scalings and different…

We consider an isotropic compressible non-dissipative fluid with broken parity subject to free surface boundary conditions in two spatial dimensions. The hydrodynamic equations describing the bulk dynamics of the fluid as well as the free…

We prove a rigidity theorem in Poisson geometry around compact Poisson submanifolds, using the Nash-Moser fast convergence method. In the case of one-point submanifolds (fixed points), this immediately implies a stronger version of Conn's…

We utilise the two principles of decoupling introduced in [arXiv:2407.16108] to prove decoupling for two types of surfaces exhibiting radial symmetry. The first type are surfaces of revolution in $\mathbb R^n$ generated by smooth surfaces…

In 1972, E. P. Senkin generalized the celebrated theorem of A. V. Pogorelov on unique determination of compact convex surfaces by their intrinsic metrics in the Euclidean 3-space $E^3$ to higher dimensional Euclidean spaces $E^{n+1}$ under…

Inspired by the recent results toward Birkhoff conjecture (a rigidity property of billiards in ellipses), we discuss two rigidity properties of conics. The first one concerns symmetries of an analog of polar duality associated with an oval,…

In this paper, we derive the first variation formulas for surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean space by using the ``strain-displacement relations'' known in thin shell theory. For applications to architectural surface design, we focus on the…

This paper is an introduction to Coxeter polyhedra in spherical, Euclidean, and hyperbolic geometries. It consists of essentially two parts that could be read independently. In the first we introduce non-obtuse polyhedra in the spherical,…
