Given $n$ non-vertical lines in 3-space, their vertical depth (above/below) relation can contain cycles. We show that the lines can be cut into $O(n^{3/2}\mathop{\mathrm{polylog}} n)$ pieces, such that the depth relation among these pieces…

We explore the dynamics of a simple class of two-dimensional models with $(0,1)$ supersymmetry, namely sigma-models with target $S^3$ and the minimal possible set of fields. For any nonzero value of the Wess--Zumino coupling $k$, we…

The paper describes a novel real-time algorithm for finding 3D geometric primitives (cylinders, cones and spheres) from 3D range data. In its core, it performs a fast model fitting with a model update in constant time (O(1)) for each new…

Let T denote Thompson's group of piecewise 2-adic linear homeomorphisms of the circle. Ghys and Sergiescu showed that the rotation number of every element of T is rational, but their proof is very indirect. We give here a short, direct…

We study single-flip dynamics in sets of three-dimensional rhombus tilings with fixed polyhedral boundaries. This dynamics is likely to be slowed down by so-called ``cycles'': such structures arise when tilings are encoded via the…

We propose a coupled system of fast and slow phase oscillators. We observe two-step transitions to quasi-periodic motions by direct numerical simulations of this coupled oscillator system. A low-dimensional equation for order parameters is…

In analogy to classical spherical t-design points, we introduce the concept of t-design curves on the sphere. This means that the line integral along a t-design curve integrates polynomials of degree t exactly. For low degrees we construct…

We study the dynamics of a transformation that acts on infinite paths in the graph associated with Pascal's triangle. For each ergodic invariant measure the asymptotic law of the return time to cylinders is given by a step function. We…

In the paper we discuss two questions about smooth expanding dynamical systems on the circle. (i) We characterize the sequences of asymptotic length ratios which occur for systems with H\"older continuous derivative. The sequences of…

Theoretical results regarding two-dimensional ordinary-differential equations (ODEs) with second-degree polynomial right-hand sides are summarized, with an emphasis on limit cycles, limit cycle bifurcations and multistability. The results…

We study the asymptotic behavior for large N of the disconnection time T_N of simple random walk on a discrete cylinder with base a d-dimensional discrete torus of side-length N. When d is sufficiently large, we are able to substantially…

We study static and dynamic spatial correlations in a two-dimensional spin model with four-body plaquette interactions and standard Glauber dynamics by means of analytic arguments and Monte Carlo simulations. We study in detail the…

We study dynamical aspects of three--dimensional gonihedric spins by using Monte--Carlo methods. The interest of this family of models (parametrized by one self-avoidance parameter $\kappa$) lies in their capability to show remarkably slow…

Many geometric optimization problems can be reduced to finding points in space (centers) minimizing an objective function which continuously depends on the distances from the centers to given input points. Examples are $k$-Means, Geometric…

We write out some sequences of linear maps of vector spaces with fixed bases. Each term of a sequence is a linear space of differentials of metric values ascribed to the elements of a simplicial complex - a triangulation of a manifold. If…

We consider the problem of finding an optimal 3D road trajectory between two points on a terrain with variable elevation. Unlike common heuristic pathfinding methods, we propose a rigorous framework based on the calculus of variations,…

The central result about fast rotating-flow structures is the Taylor-Proudman theorem (TPT) which connects various aspects of the dynamics. Taylor's geometrical proof of TPT is reproduced and extended substantially, with Lie's theory for…

We consider a dynamical system, possibly infinite dimensional or non-autonomous, with fast and slow time scales which is oscillatory with high frequencies in the fast directions. We first derive and justify the limit system of the slow…

We develop an approximation scheme for three-dimensional dislocation dynamics in which the dislocation line density is concentrated at points, or monopoles. Every monopole carries a Burgers vector and an element of line. The monopoles move…

Let $d\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $p_i$ be an integral polynomial with $p_i(0)=0,1\leq i\leq d$. It is shown that if $S$ is thickly syndetic in $\mathbb{Z}$, then $\{(m,n)\in\mathbb{Z}^2:m+p_i(n),m+p_2(n),\ldots,m+p_d(n)\in S\}$ is thickly syndetic…
