In this paper we provide a bridge between classical results concerning discrete dynamical systems and dynamical systems governed by nonsmooth vector fields. In fact, we obtain a set of piecewise smooth vector field trajectories where the…

Replacing operators with continuous operator-valued functions, we prove time-dependent versions of well-known results on compressions and diagonals of bounded operators. The setting of smooth functions is also addressed. Our results have no…

We study the inverse problem of determining a finite weighted graph $(X,E)$ from the source-to-solution map on a vertex subset $B\subset X$ for heat equations on graphs, where the time variable can be either discrete or continuous. We prove…

This paper reviews various applications of the theory of smooth dynamical systems to conceptual problems of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. We adopt a new point of view which has emerged progressively in recent years, and which takes…

Towards characterizing the optimization landscape of games, this paper analyzes the stability of gradient-based dynamics near fixed points of two-player continuous games. We introduce the quadratic numerical range as a method to…

We study directional differentiability properties of solution operators of rate-independent evolution variational inequalities with full-dimensional convex polyhedral admissible sets. It is shown that, if the space of continuous functions…

We derive a variant of the nonsmooth maximum principle for problems with pure state constraints. The interest of our result resides on the nonsmoothness itself since, when applied to smooth problems, it coincides with known results.…

We consider a global, nonlinear version of the Whitney extension problem for manifold-valued smooth functions on closed domains $C$, with non-smooth boundary, in possibly non-compact manifolds. Assuming $C$ is a submanifold with corners, or…

It is well known that rate-independent systems involving nonconvex energy functionals in general do not allow for time-continuous solutions even if the given data are smooth. In the last years, several solution concepts were proposed that…

We consider the space of convex functions defined in the Euclidean $n$-dimensional space, which are lower semi-continuous and tend to infinity at infinity. We study real-valued valuations defined on this space of functions, which are…

Accurate simulations of ice sheet dynamics, mantle convection, lava flow, and other highly viscous free-surface flows involve solving the coupled Stokes/free-surface equations. In this paper, we theoretically analyze the stability and…

We consider stabilities for the weighted length or energy functional of a discrete map from a finite weighted graph $(X,m_{E})$ into a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. We prove the non-existence of a stable discrete minimal immersion or…

This paper considers the equilibrium-free stability and performance analysis of discrete-time nonlinear systems. We consider two types of equilibrium-free notions. Namely, the universal shifted concept, which considers stability and…

We study nonconcentration of hitting times for simple random walk on finite graphs. We prove that, for every connected graph with $n$ vertices, \[ \operatorname{Var}_x(\tau_y)+\mathbb E_x\tau_y \ge \frac{(\mathbb E_x\tau_y)^2}{1+\log n}, \]…

We show that the distribution of the first return time $\tau$ to the origin, v, of a simple random walk on an infinite recurrent graph is heavy tailed and nonconcentrated. More precisely, if $d_v$ is the degree of v, then for any $t\geq1$…

We consider a discrete-time, continuous-state random walk with steps uniformly distributed in a disk of radius of $h$. For a simply connected domain $D$ in the plane, let $\omega_h(0,\cdot;D)$ be the discrete harmonic measure at $0\in D$…

In this paper we describe a method to derive solutions of the incompressible Navier- Stokes system of equations for non-stationary initial value problems in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We show that for a given smooth solenoidal initial velocity vector…

We study zero-sum stochastic games for controlled discrete time Markov chains with risk-sensitive average cost criterion with countable state space and Borel action spaces. The payoff function is nonnegative and possibly unbounded. Under a…

We consider a non-autonomous form $\fra:[0,T]\times V\times V \to \C$ where $V$ is a Hilbert space which is densely and continuously embedded in another Hilbert space $H$. Denote by $\A(t) \in \L(V,V')$ the associated operator. Given $f \in…

We construct a separate continuous function $f\colon\mathbb{Q}\times\mathbb{Q}\to[0,1] $ and a dense subset $D\subseteq \mathbb{Q}\times\mathbb{Q}$ such that $f[D]$ is not dense in $f[\mathbb{Q}\times\mathbb{Q}]$, in other words, $f$ is…
