We analyze the general relativistic oscillations of thin accretion disks around compact astrophysical objects interacting with the surrounding medium through non-gravitational forces. The interaction with the external medium (a thermal…
We present a numerical study of the effect that fluid and particle inertia have on the motion of suspended spherical particles through a geometric constriction to understand analogous microfluidic settings, such as pinched flow…
Both electromagnetic shock-waves and gravitational waves propagate with the speed of light. If they carry significant energy-momentum, this will change the properties of the space-time they propagate through. This can be described in terms…
We tackle the problem of the accelerating universe by reconsidering the most general form of the metric when the speed of light is allowed to evolve with time in a homogeneous and isotropic universe. A new varying speed of light (VSL) model…
The experimental techniques have evolved to a stage where various examples of nanostructures with non-trivial shapes have been synthesized, turning the dynamics of a constrained particle and the link with geometry into a realistic and…
In this paper we study curves in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{L}^2$ that are critical points of the moment of inertia with respect to the origin. This extends a problem posed by Euler in the Lorentzian setting. We obtain explicit…
If $\alpha\in\r$, an $\alpha$-stationary surface in Euclidean space is a surface $\Sigma$ whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies $H(p)=\alpha |p|^{-2} \langle\nu,p\rangle$, $p\in\Sigma$. These surfaces generalize in dimension two a classical…
We study the two-dimensional motion of a self-propelling asymmetric bent rod. By employing slender body theory and the Lorentz reciprocal theorem, we determine particle trajectories for different geometric configurations and arbitrary…
This paper presents and proves an equation for the time horizon of symmetric trajectories with zero boundary conditions and bounded derivatives of arbitrary order. This equation holds regardless of the number of phases comprising the…
We investigate the quantum geometry of $2d$ surface $S$ bounding the Cauchy slices of 4d gravitational system. We investigate in detail and for the first time the symplectic current that naturally arises boundary term in the first order…
This paper provides a mathematical approach to study metasurfaces in non flat geometries. Analytical conditions between the curvature of the surface and the set of refracted directions are introduced to guarantee the existence of phase…
A linear analytical solution is derived for the gravitational shock wave produced by a particle of mass $M$ that decays into a pair of null particles. The resulting space-time is shown to be unperturbed and isotropic, except for a…
We consider the problem of a particle traveling from an initial configuration to a final configuration (given by a point in the plane along with a prescribed velocity vector) in minimum time with non-homogeneous velocity and with…
The Problem of Time in Quantum Gravity is analyzed from a classical presymplectic perspective. In the first part of the paper the Three Space Approach to General Relativity is introduced via the Barbour-Foster-\'O Murchadha action and the…
We find equations of particle motion from the point of view of observer on a rotating disk, and demonstrate that a particle moving along a rotating disk is influenced by forces arising from geometry. They can be considered as analogs of the…
The problem of a particle in a box is probably the simplest problem in quantum mechanics which allows for significant insight into the nature of quantum systems and thus is a cornerstone in the teaching of quantum mechanics. In relativistic…
We investigate a singularly perturbed, non-convex variational problem arising in materials science with a combination of geometrical and numerical methods. Our starting point is a work by Stefan M\"uller, where it is proven that the…
The paths on the {\bf R$^3$} real Euclidean manifold are defined as 2-dimensional simplicial strips; points are replaced by 2-simplexes and the orbits of the action of a one discrete-parameter group on the base manifold becomes a convex…
This paper proposes a new general methodology for finite-time singularity formation for moving interface problems involving the incompressible Euler equations in the plane. The first problem considered is the two-phase Euler vortex sheets…
In this work we look for a geometric description of non-gravitational forces. The basic ideas are proposed studying the interaction between a punctual particle and an electromagnetic external field. For this purpose, we introduce the…
