The elementary resolution of singularities algorithm of the author's earlier paper (math.CA/0609217) is developed further, replacing the quasibump functions in the blown up coordinates with the characteristic function of a rectangle times a…

The work deals with the Ericksen-Leslie model for nematic liquid crystals on the whole space, the half-space and on exterior domains with smooth boundary. The crystal orientation is described by a unit vector that is a small perturbation of…

The orbit problem is at the heart of symmetry reduction methods for model checking concurrent systems. It asks whether two given configurations in a concurrent system (represented as finite strings over some finite alphabet) are in the same…

The phenomenon of turbulence is investigated in the context of globally coupled maps. The local dynamics is given by the Chat\'e-Manneville minimal map previously used in studies of spatiotemporal intermittency in locally coupled map…

We have previously proposed a study of arrangements of small circles which also surround regions in the plane realized as the images of natural real algebraic maps yielding Morse-Bott functions by projections. Among studies of arrangements,…

We investigate the convergence towards periodic orbits in discrete dynamical systems. We examine the probability that a randomly chosen point converges to a particular neighborhood of a periodic orbit in a fixed number of iterations, and we…

A remarkably simple Diophantine quadratic equation is known to generate all Apollonian integral gaskets (disk packings). A new derivation of this formula is presented here based on inversive geometry. Also occurrences of Pythagorean triples…

A nonlocal method of extracting the positive (or the negative) frequency part of a field, based on knowledge of a 2-point function, leads to certain natural generalizations of the normal ordering of quantum fields in classical gravitational…

In several previous papers we have argued for a global and non-entropic approach to the problem of the arrow of time, according to which the ''arrow'' is only a metaphorical way of expressing the geometrical time-asymmetry of the universe.…

This note contains some observations on abelian convexity theorems. Convexity along an orbit is established in a very general setting using Kempf-Ness functions. This is applied to give short proofs of the Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg theorem…

Faced by recent evidence for a flat universe dominated by dark energy, cosmologists grapple with deep cosmic enigmas such as the cosmological constant problem, extreme fine-tuning and the cosmic coincidence problem. The extent to which we…

Motivated by problems arising in the relative trace formula and arithmetic invariant theory we prove the existence of rational points on orbits arising from certain infinitesimal symmetric spaces. As an application, we prove analogous…

In this note, we generalize an ancient Greek inequality about the sequence of primes to the cases of arithmetic progressions even multivariable polynomials with integral coefficients. We also refine Bouniakowsky's conjecture [16] and…

An action of a group on a vector space partitions the latter into a set of orbits. We consider three natural and useful algorithmic "isomorphism" or "classification" problems, namely, orbit equality, orbit closure intersection, and orbit…

In this notes we show how a problem regarding continued fractions of rational numbers, lead to several phenomena in number theory and dynamics, and eventually to the problem of shearing of divergent diagonal orbits in the space of adelic…

Accurate modeling of gravitational interactions is fundamental to the analysis, prediction, and control of space systems. While the Newtonian point-mass approximation suffices for many preliminary studies, real celestial bodies exhibit…

For an algebraic number $\alpha$ we consider the orders of the reductions of $\alpha$ in finite fields. In the case where $\alpha$ is an integer, it is known by the work on Artin's primitive root conjecture that the order is "almost always…

We prove the existence of infinitely many solutions to an elliptic problem by borrowing the techniques from algebraic topology. The solution(s) thus obtained will also be proved to be bounded.

We address in this work the problem of minimizing quantum entropies under local constraints. We suppose macroscopic quantities such as the particle density, current, and kinetic energy are fixed at each point of $\Rm^d$, and look for a…

This paper revisits the notion of classical orthogonal polynomials from a broader functional-analytic point of view. It is intended neither as a survey of known results nor as a review of the literature, but rather as a conceptual…
