Recently, it has been proven that a tensegrity framework that arises from coning the one-skeleton of a convex polytope is rigid. Since such frameworks are not always infinitesimally rigid, this leaves open the question as to whether they…
The energy-based definition provides a viable resolution to the longstanding confusion on the proper definition of $n$-th order rigidity and flexibility in geometric constraint systems. Applying an energy-based local rigidity analysis to…
We investigate a novel setting for polytope rigidity, where a flex must preserve edge lengths and the planarity of faces, but is allowed to change the shapes of faces. For instance, the regular cube is flexible in this notion. We present…
Rigid origami is examined from the perspective of rigidity theory. First and second order rigidity are defined from local differential analysis of the consistency constraint; while the static rigidity and prestress stability are defined…
We generalize Cauchy's celebrated theorem on the global rigidity of convex polyhedra in Euclidean $3$-space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ to the context of circle polyhedra in the $2$-sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2}$. We prove that any two convex and proper…
We have examined the stability of triangular equilibrium points in Robes's generalised restricted three body problem. The problem is generalised in the sense that more massive primary has been taken as an oblate spheroid. We have found the…
We show that, on convex polytopes and two or three dimensions, the finite element Stokes projection is stable on weighted spaces $\mathbf{W}^{1,p}_0(\omega,\Omega) \times L^p(\omega,\Omega)$, where the weight belongs to a certain…
In this paper we have examined the linear stability of triangular equilibrium points in the generalised photogravitational restricted three body problem with Poynting-Robertson drag. We have found the position of triangular equilibrium…
Here we propose a class of frameworks in the plane, braced polygons, that may be globally rigid and are analogous to convex polyopes in 3 space that are rigid by Cauchy's rigidity Theorem in 1813.
This article is concerned with the stability of triharmonic maps and in particular triharmonic hypersurfaces. After deriving a number of general statements on the stability of triharmonic maps we focus on the stability of triharmonic…
Asymptotic equilibrium stresses are defined for countably infinite tensegrities and generalisations of the Roth-Whiteley characterisation of first-order rigidity are obtained. Generalisations of prestress stability and second order rigidity…
We show the rigidity of the hexagonal Delaunay triangulated plane under Luo's PL conformality. As a consequence, we obtain a rigidity theorem for a particular type of locally finite convex ideal hyperbolic polyhedra.
The dynamics of a rigid, rotating, precessing, massive ring orbiting a point mass within the perimeter of the ring are considered. It is demonstrated that orbits dynamically stable against perturbations in three dimensions exist for a range…
It is conjectured that all decomposable (i.e. interior can be triangulated without adding new vertices) polyhedra with vertices in convex position are infinitesimally rigid and only recently has it been shown that this is indeed true under…
We examine the minimal magnitude of perturbations necessary to change the number $N$ of static equilibrium points of a convex solid $K$. We call the normalized volume of the minimally necessary truncation robustness and we seek shapes with…
We prove the following rigidity result: every compact three-dimensional Heterotic soliton with vanishing torsion and harmonic curvature is rigid, namely, it is an isolated point in the moduli space.
We define a natural notion of higher order stability and show that subsets of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ that are tame in this sense can be approximately described by a union of low-complexity quadratic varieties, up to linear error. This generalizes…
We study the stability of static black holes in the third order Lovelock theory. We derive a master equation for tensor perturbations. Using the master equation, we analyze the stability of Lovelock black holes mainly in seven and eight…
This work regards the order polytopes arising from the class of generalized snake posets and their posets of meet-irreducible elements. Among generalized snake posets of the same rank, we characterize those whose order polytopes have…
Recently, V. Alexandrov proposed an intriguing sufficient condition for rigidity, which we will call "transverse rigidity". We show that transverse rigidity is actually equivalent to the known sufficient condition for rigidity called…
