A famous result by Delort about the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations is the existence of weak solutions when the initial vorticity is a diffuse bounded Radon measure with distinguished sign. In this paper we are interested in…
We study the motion of smooth, strictly convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ expanding in the direction of their normal vector field with speed depending on Gauss curvature and support function.
We discuss how well a given convex body B in a real d-dimensional vector space V can be approximated by a set X for which the membership question: ``given an x in V, does x belong to X?'' can be answered efficiently (in time polynomial in…
The two-dimensional motion of an object on a moving rough horizontal plane is investigated. Two cases are studied: the plane having a translational acceleration, and a rotating plane. For the first case, the motions of a point particle and…
A spinning rough disk moves through a rarefied medium on the plane. The roughness is formed by small cavities on the disk boundary. The medium is so rare that mutual interaction of particles can be neglected. All collisions of particles…
In this paper we describe optimal reduction for the system of two bodies in $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose Hamiltonian is invariant under rotations and translations. In doing this, we introduce parametrizations and charts which help giving explicit…
We consider the motion of several rigid bodies immersed in a two-dimensional incompress-ible perfect fluid, the whole system being bounded by an external impermeable fixed boundary. The fluid motion is described by the incompressible Euler…
Laboratory experiments on gravitation are usually performed with objects of constant density, so that the analysis of the forces concerns only the geometry of their shape. In an ideal experiment, the shapes of the constituent parts will be…
Motivated by a long-standing conjecture of Polya and Szeg\"o about the Newtonian capacity of convex bodies, we discuss the role of concavity inequalities in shape optimization, and we provide several counterexamples to the…
We present dynamic equations for two dimensional closed surfaces and analytically solve it for some simplified cases. We derive final equations for surface normal motions by two different ways. The solution of the equations of motions in…
We consider a body in a parallel flow of non-interacting particles. The interaction of particles with the body is perfectly elastic. We introduce the notions of a body of zero resistance, a body that leaves no trace, and an invisible body,…
We present a simple experimental realization of a two-dimensional floating body that can remain in equilibrium in any orientation. This system is based on a class of shapes known as Zindler curves, which possess the remarkable geometric…
We study three-dimensional path geometries with nontrivial torsion of maximal rank. We introduce the notion of constant torsion and show that such path geometries are in one-to-one correspondence with certain cone structures modeled on…
This paper investigates the nonlinear dynamics of Newton's problem of minimal resistance in radial fields. We move beyond classical translational symmetry to analyze two non-equilibrium scenarios: a scale-invariant free expansion and an…
We consider convex sets whose modulus of convexity is uniformly quadratic. First, we observe several interesting relations between different positions of such ``2-convex'' bodies; in particular, the isotropic position is a finite…
We develop the canonical formalism for a system of $N$ bodies in lineal gravity and obtain exact solutions to the equations of motion for N=2. The determining equation of the Hamiltonian is derived in the form of a transcendental equation,…
We show that the two-dimensional structure of a rigidly rotating self-gravitating body is accessible with relatively good precision by assuming a purely spheroidal stratification. With this hypothesis, the two-dimensional problem becomes…
We discuss the equilibrium conditions for a body made of two homogeneous components separated by oblate spheroidal surfaces and in relative motion. While exact solutions are not permitted for rigid rotation (unless a specific ambient…
We introduce numerical methods for simulating the diffusive motion of rigid bodies of arbitrary shape immersed in a viscous fluid. We parameterize the orientation of the bodies using normalized quaternions, which are numerically robust,…
Three-dimensional central symmetric bodies different from spheres that can float in all orientations are considered. For relative density rho=1/2 there are solutions, if holes in the body are allowed. For rho different from 1/2 the body is…
