We establish local-in-time existence and uniqueness results for nonlocal conservation laws with a nonlinear mobility, in several space dimensions, under weak assumptions on the kernel, which is assumed to be bounded and of finite total…

We analyze the origin and features of localized excitations in a discrete two-dimensional Hamiltonian lattice. The lattice obeys discrete translational symmetry, and the localized excitations exist because of the presence of nonlinearities.…

In this paper we propose a nonlinear elasticity model of macromolecular conformational change (deformation) induced by electrostatic forces generated by an implicit solvation model. The Poisson-Boltzmann equation for the electrostatic…

In this work, we deal with the stochastic counterpart of the nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equation with regular potential in a smooth bounded one-, two- or three-dimensional domain. The problem is endowed with homogeneous Neumann boundary…

This article offers a comprehensive survey of results obtained for solitons and complex nonlinear wave patterns supported by purely nonlinear lattices (NLs), which represent a spatially periodic modulation of the local strength and sign of…

We consider a class of nonconvex energy functionals that lies in the framework of the peridynamics model of continuum mechanics. The energy densities are functions of a nonlocal strain that describes deformation based on pairwise…

We consider a problem of optimal distribution of conductivities in a system governed by a non-local diffusion law. The problem stems from applications in optimal design and more specifically topology optimization. We propose a novel…

We present a procedure to map the constitutive laws of elasticity (both in the linear and nonlinear regime) onto a discrete atomic lattice and we apply the resulting elastic lattice model to investigate the strain field within an embedded…

The short time behavior of a disturbed system is influenced by off-shell motion and best characterized by the reduced density matrix possessing high energetic tails. We present analytically the formation of correlations due to collisions in…

This article proposes a novel methodology to learn a stable robot control law driven by dynamical systems. The methodology requires a single demonstration and can deduce a stable dynamics in arbitrary high dimensions. The method relies on…

Solids built out of active components can exhibit non-reciprocal elastic coefficients that give rise to non-Hermitian wave phenomena. Here, we investigate non-Hermitian effects present at the boundary of two-dimensional active elastic media…

We introduce a new class of quasilinear nonlocal operators and study equations involving these operators. The operators are degenerate elliptic and may have arbitrary growth in the gradient. Included are new nonlocal versions of p-Laplace,…

When canonical Hamiltonians of local quantum field theories are transformed using a renormalization group procedure for effective particles, the resulting interaction terms are non-local. The range of their non-locality depends on the…

Flexible mechanical metamaterials possess repeating structural motifs that imbue them with novel, exciting properties including programmability, anomalous elastic moduli and nonlinear and robust response. We address such structures via…

We demonstrate that the elasticity of jammed solids is nonlocal. By forcing frictionless soft sphere packings at varying wavelength, we directly access their transverse and longitudinal compliances without resorting to curve fitting. The…

We introduce and analyze a model for the transport of particles or energy in extended lattice systems. The dynamics of the model acts on a discrete phase space at discrete times but has nonetheless some of the characteristic properties of…

We consider a class of finite-dimensional dynamical systems whose equations of motion are derived from a non-local-in-time action principle. The action functional has a zeroth order piece derived from a local Hamiltonian and a perturbation…

We initiate the study of the classical mechanics of non-relativistic fractons in its simplest setting - that of identical one dimensional particles with local Hamiltonians characterized by by a conserved dipole moment in addition to the…

We introduce a new class of nonlocal nonlinear conservation laws in one space dimension that allow for nonlocal interactions over a finite horizon. The proposed model, which we refer to as the nonlocal pair interaction model, inherits at…

We consider non-Hermitian dynamics of a quantum particle hopping on a one-dimensional tight-binding lattice made of $N$ sites with asymmetric hopping rates induced by a time-periodic oscillating imaginary gauge field. A deeply different…
