Geodesic equations are solved when at least two of $\tau$, $\theta$, $\varphi$ are constant on metrics of self-dual Taub-NUT type. They can also be solved also on self-dual Taub-NUT metrics if only $r$, $\theta$ or $\varphi$ is constant.…

We consider the problem of finding embedded closed geodesics on the two-sphere with an incomplete metric defined outside a point. Various techniques including curve shortening methods are used.

The two-dimensional surface of a bi-axial ellipsoid is characterized by the lengths of its major and minor axes. Longitude and latitude span an angular coordinate system across. We consider the egg-shaped surface of constant altitude above…

An important problem in computational arithmetic geometry is to find changes of coordinates to simplify a system of polynomial equations with rational coefficients. This is tackled by a combination of two techniques, called minimisation and…

It has been shown that the Cauchy problem for geodesics in the space of K\"ahler metrics with a fixed cohomology class on a compact complex manifold $M$ can be effectively reduced to the problem of finding the flow of a related hamiltonian…

It is argued that, for motion in a central force field, polar reciprocals of trajectories are an elegant alternative to hodographs. The principal advantage of polar reciprocals is that the transformation from a trajectory to its polar…

By using sheaf-theoretical methods such as constructible sheaves, we generalize the formula of Libgober-Sperber concerning the zeta functions of monodromy at infinity of polynomial maps into various directions. In particular, some formulas…

The timelike geodesic equations resulting from the Kerr gravitational metric element are derived and solved exactly including the contribution from the cosmological constant. The geodesic equations are derived, by solving the…

The well-known Jacobi elliptic functions sn(z)$, $cn(z), dn(z) are defined in higher dimensional spaces by the following method. Consider the Clifford algebra of the antieuclidean vector space of dimension 2m+1. Let x be the identity…

Algorithms for minimal enclosing ball problems are often geometric in nature. To highlight the metric ingredients underlying their efficiency, we focus here on a particularly simple geodesic-based method. A recent subgradient-based study…

We analyze the inverse problem of identifying the diffusivity coefficient of a scalar elliptic equation as a function of the resolvent operator. We prove that, within the class of measurable coefficients, bounded above and below by positive…

Given a hyper loop algebra over a non-algebraically closed field, we address multiplicity problems in the underlying abelian tensor category of finite-dimensional representations. Namely, we give formulas for the l-characters of the simple…

We establish a generalization of Jacobi's elegantissima, which solves the pendulum equation. This amazing formula appears in lectures by the famous cosmologist Georges Lema\^itre, during the academic years 1955-1956 and 1956-1957. Our…

We solve the geodesic deviation equations for the orbital motions in the Schwarzschild metric which are close to a circular orbit. It turns out that in this particular case the equations reduce to a linear system, which after…

The classical Kepler-Coulomb problem on the single-sheeted hyperboloid $H^{3}_1$ is solved in the framework of the Hamilton--Jacobi equation. We have proven that all the bounded orbits are closed and periodic. The paths are ellipses or…

We consider the leapfrog algorithm by Noakes for computing geodesics on Riemannian manifolds. The main idea behind this algorithm is to subdivide the original endpoint geodesic problem into several local problems, for which the endpoint…

In this paper, we consider a family of Jacobi-type algorithms for simultaneous orthogonal diagonalization problem of symmetric tensors. For the Jacobi-based algorithm of [SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl., 2(34):651--672, 2013], we prove its…

In the present paper, new classes of wavelet functions are presented in the framework of Clifford analysis. Firstly, some classes of orthogonal polynomials are provided based on 2-parameters weight functions. Such classes englobe the well…

We revisit a little known theorem due to Beltrami, through which the integration of the geodesic equations of a curved manifold is accomplished by a method which, even if inspired by the Hamilton-Jacobi method, is purely geometric. The…

A class of generalized Schr\"{o}dinger elliptic problems involving concave-convex and other types of nonlinearities is studied. A reasonable overview about the set of solutions is provided when the parameters involved in the equation assume…
