The famous example of the double-Watt mechanism given by Connelly and Servatius raises some problems concerning the classical definitions of higher-order flexibility and rigidity, respectively. Recently, the author was able to give a proper…
[Connelly and Servatius, 1994] shows the difficulty of properly defining n-th order rigidity and flexiblity of a bar-and-joint framework for higher order (n >= 3) through the introduction of a cusp mechanism. The author proposes a "proper"…
In this paper, we revisit the notion of higher-order rigidity of a bar-and-joint framework. In particular, we provide a link between the rigidity properties of a framework, and the growth order of an energy function defined on that…
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 study cusped Wilson line operators in the Abelian Higgs model in $ d = 4 - \epsilon $ at large external charges. Using a double-scaling limit $ Q \to \infty $, $ \epsilon \to 0 $ with $ Q\epsilon $ fixed, we develop a semiclassical…
The orbit method in its quantitative form due to Nelson and Venkatesh has played a central role in recent advances in the analytic theory of higher rank $L$-functions. The goal of this note is to explain how the method can be applied to the…
We propose and analyze several inexact regularized Newton-type methods for finding a global saddle point of convex-concave unconstrained min-max optimization problems. Compared to first-order methods, our understanding of second-order…
In this work we propose and analyze a novel Hybrid High-Order discretization of a class of (linear and) nonlinear elasticity models in the small deformation regime which are of common use in solid mechanics. The proposed method is valid in…
We address the problem, not of the determination -- which usually needs numerical methods -- but of an accurate analytical estimation of the distance of a raw elasticity tensor to cubic symmetry and to orthotropy. We point out that there…
We study quadratic moduli schemes $X$ of algebra laws on a fixed vector space $W$ under the transport-of-structure action of $GL(W)$ on $Hom(W^{\otimes 2},W)$. We construct an intrinsic three-term deformation complex on $X$ whose fibers…
We present a microscopic examination for the itinerant-localized duality model which has been proposed to understand anomalous properties of strongly correlated systems like the heavy fermions by Kuramoto and Miyake, and also useful to…
The Weak Gravity Conjecture has recently been re-formulated in terms of a particle with non-negative self-binding energy. Because of the dual conformal field theory (CFT) formulation in the anti-de Sitter space the conformal dimension…
Two-stage robust optimization is a fundamental paradigm for modeling and solving optimization problems with uncertain parameters. A now classical method within this paradigm is finite adaptability, introduced by Bertsimas and Caramanis…
This paper pursues a twofold goal. First, we introduce and study in detail a new notion of variational analysis called generalized metric subregularity, which is a far-going extension of the conventional metric subregularity conditions. Our…
We analyze the presumptions which lead to instabilities in theories of order higher than second. That type of fourth order gravity which leads to an inflationary (quasi de Sitter) period of cosmic evolution by inclusion of one curvature…
This paper develops a comprehensive extension of the $\Lambda$-set framework for optimal control, introducing second-order $\Lambda$-sets and generalizing the theory to non-smooth, hybrid, and stochastic hybrid systems. We first establish…
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…
Cuspidal robots are robots with at least two inverse kinematic solutions that can be connected by a singularity-free path. Deciding the cuspidality of generic 3R robots has been studied in the past, but extending the study to…
This paper investigates the conditions in the design parameter space for the existence and distribution of the cusp locus for planar parallel manipulators. Cusp points make possible non-singular assembly-mode changing motion, which…
A first-order gauge invariant formulation for the two-dimensional quantum rigid rotor is long known in the theoretical physics community as an isolated peculiar model. Parallel to that fact, the longstanding constraints abelianization…
