We argue that the standard classification of isometric deformations into infinitesimal v.s. finite is inadequate for the study of compliant shell mechanisms. Indeed, many compliant shells, particularly ones that are periodically corrugated,…

This paper studies the regularity of constrained Willmore immersions into $\R^{m\ge3}$ locally around both "regular" points and around branch points, where the immersive nature of the map degenerates. We develop local asymptotic expansions…

Let $M$ be a complete Sasakian sub-Riemannian $3$-manifold of constant Webster scalar curvature $\kappa$. For any point $p\in M$ and any number $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$ with $\lambda^2+\kappa>0$, we show existence of a $C^2$ spherical surface…

We study the problem of isometrically embedding a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold into Euclidean three-space. It is shown that if Gaussian curvature vanishes to finite order and its zero set consists of two smooth curves tangent at a…

We study a family of equations defined on the space of tensor densities of weight $\lambda$ on the circle and introduce two integrable PDE. One of the equations turns out to be closely related to the inviscid Burgers equation while the…

The integrable 3rd-order Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation emerges uniquely at linear order in the asymptotic expansion for unidirectional shallow water waves. However, at quadratic order, this asymptotic expansion produces an entire {\it…

We prove that the 3-D free-surface incompressible Euler equations with regular initial geometries and velocity fields have solutions which can form a finite-time "splash" (or "splat") singularity first introduced in [9], wherein the…

We present an efficient second-order finite difference scheme for solving the 2D sine-Gordon equation, which can inherit the discrete energy conservation for the undamped model theoretically. Due to the semi-implicit treatment for the…

In this paper, we first prove a localized Hamilton-type gradient estimate for the positive solutions of Porous Media type equations: $$u_t=\Delta F(u),$$ with $F'(u) > 0$, on a complete Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from…

Global isothermic immersions are defined and studied with the aid of a connection between quadratic differentials and immersions. The applications are two problems stemming from the fundamental question: how much data is needed to identify…

We consider the elliptic and parabolic superquadratic diffusive Hamilton-Jacobi equations with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions. For the elliptic problem in a half-space, we prove a Liouville-type classification, or symmetry result, which…

Motivated by important applications in image processing, we study a class of second-order geometric quasilinear hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs). This is inspired by the recent development of second-order damping systems…

We prove global second-order regularity for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations, both with homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. A condition on the integrability of the second fundamental form on the boundary of the…

We study second order and third order linear differential equations with analytic coefficients under the viewpoint of finding formal solutions and studying their convergence. We address some untouched aspects of Frobenius methods for second…

We consider the problem of integrability of the Poisson equations describing spatial motion of a rigid body in the classical nonholonomic Suslov problem. We obtain necessary conditions for their solutions to be meromorphic and show that…

Inspired by the forms of delay-Painleve equations, we consider some new differential-discrete systems of KdV, mKdV and Sine-Gordon - type related by simple one way Miura transformations to classical ones. Using Hirota bilinear formalism we…

Combining the intrinsic and extrinsic geometry, we generalize Einstein manifolds to Integral-Einstein (IE) submanifolds. A Takahashi-type theorem is established to characterize minimal hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature (CSC) in…

The problem of classification of the Einstein--Friedman cosmological Hamiltonians $H$ with a single scalar inflaton field $\varphi$ that possess an additional integral of motion polynomial in momenta on the shell of the Friedman constraint…

We study stable surfaces, i.e., second order minima of the area for variations of fixed volume, in sub-Riemannian space forms of dimension $3$. We prove a stability inequality and provide sufficient conditions ensuring instability of…

Given a smooth 2-dimensional Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M, \boldsymbol{g})$ and an ambient 3-dimensional Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(N, \boldsymbol{h})$, one can ask under what circumstances does the exterior…
