In this paper, we consider the classical variational problem in the Galilean space. we develop the Euler-Lagrange equations for a elastic line on an oriented surface in the Galilean 3-dimensional space $G_3$. Using the varia- tion method,…

We define the notion of energy, and compute its values, for gravitational systems involving terms quadratic in curvature. While our construction parallels that of ordinary Einstein gravity, there are significant differences both…

Any surface is completely characterized by a metric and a symmetric tensor satisfying the Gauss-Codazzi-Mainardi equations (GCM), which identifies the latter as its curvature. We demonstrate that physical questions relating to a surface…

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 establish a deep connection between the Prandtl equations linearised around a quadratic shear flow, confluent hypergeometric functions of the first kind, and the Schr\"odinger operator. Our first result concerns an ODE and a spectral…

We present a kinetic energy tensor that unifies a scalar kinetic energy density commonly used in meta-Generalized Gradient Approximation functionals and the vorticity density that appears in paramagnetic current-density-functional theory.…

We present a comprehensive a priori error analysis of a practical energy based atomistic/continuum coupling method (Shapeev, arXiv:1010.0512) in two dimensions, for finite-range pair-potential interactions, in the presence of vacancy…

Expositions of the Euler equations for the rotation of a rigid body often invoke the idea of a specially damped system whose energy dissipates while its angular momentum magnitude is conserved in the body frame. An attempt to explicitly…

Understanding the organization of matter under the long-range electrostatic force is a fundamental problem in multiple fields. In this work, based on the electrically charged tethered membrane model, we reveal regular structures underlying…

We derive an $H^{-1}$-gradient flow of the elastic energy which preserves the enclosed area of evolving planar curves. For this new sixth-order evolution equation, we prove a global existence result. Additionally, by penalizing the length,…

We identify a class of trapping potentials in cubic nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equations (NLSEs) that make them non-integrable, but prevent the emergence of power spectra associated with ergodicity. The potentials are characterized by…

We review the circumstances under which test particles can be localized around a spacetime section \Sigma_0 smoothly contained within a codimension-1 embedding space M. If such a confinement is possible, \Sigma_0 is said to be totally…

We investigate rigidity and stability properties of critical points of quadratic curvature functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics. We show it is possible to "gauge" the Euler-Lagrange equations, in a self-adjoint fashion, to become…

We study the global influence of curvature on the free energy landscape of two-dimensional binary mixtures confined on closed surfaces. Starting from a generic effective free energy, constructed on the basis of symmetry considerations and…

We study the model of a noninteracting spinless electron gas confined to the two-dimensional localized surface of a cone in the presence of external magnetic fields. The localized region is characterized by an annular radial potential. We…

We provide an approximation result for the pure traction problem of linearized elasticity in terms of local minimizers of finite elasticity, under the constraint of vanishing average curl for admissible deformation maps. When suitable…

We establish a $\Gamma$-convergence result for $h\to 0$ of a thin nonlinearly elastic 3D-plate of thickness $h>0$ which is assumed to be glued to a support region in the 2D-plane $x_3=0$ over the $h$-2D-neighborhood of a given closed set…

In this paper a Blaschke-Santal\'o diagram involving the area, the perimeter and the elastic energy of planar convex bodies is considered. More precisely we give a description of set $$\mathcal{E}:=\left\{(x,y)\in \R^2, x=\frac{4\pi…

We investigate the strong curvature that appears at the boundaries of a thin crumpled elastic membrane. We account for these high-curvature regions in terms of the stretching-ridge singularity believed to dominate the structure of strongly…

We investigate the self-energy of one electron coupled to a quantized radiation field by extending the ideas developed recently by C. Hainzl. We fix an arbitrary cut-off parameter Lambda and recover the alpha^2-term of the self-energy,…
