Harmonic maps are nonlinear extensions of harmonic functions. They are critical points of natural energy functionals between Riemannian manifolds. Such type of problems appear in Physics, Geometry of Finance and the study of regularity and…

We show that the minimization of the Lagrangian action functional on suitable classes of symmetric loops yields collisionless periodic orbits of the n-body problem, provided that some simple conditions on the symmetry group are satisfied.…

We investigate the extrinsic topology of Lagrangian submanifolds and of their submanifolds in closed symplectic manifolds using Floer homological methods. The first result asserts that the homology class of a displaceable monotone…

We find a spinorial representation of a Riemannian or Lorentzian surface in a Lorentzian homogeneous space of dimension $3.$ We in particular obtain a representation theorem for surfaces in the $\mathbb{L}(\kappa,\tau)$ spaces. We then…

The aim of this paper is to state and prove existence and uniqueness results for a general elliptic problem with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, often associated with image processing tasks like denoising. The novelty is that we…

In this study, it is generalized the concept of Lagrangian mechanics with constraints to complex case. To be beginning, it is considered a Kaehlerian manifold as a velocity-phase space. Then a non-holonomic constraint is given by 1-form on…

We prove that any minimal (maximal) strongly regular surface in the three-dimensional Minkowski space locally admits canonical principal parameters. Using this result, we find a canonical representation of minimal strongly regular time-like…

The asymptotic Dirichlet problem for harmonic maps from the hyperbolic plane into conformally compact Einstein manifolds is used to give a holographic characterization of conformal geodesics on the boundary at infinity, in a way deeply…

We study lower semi-continuity properties of the volume, i.e., the surface area, of a closed Lagrangian manifold with respect to the Hofer- and $\gamma$-distance on a class of monotone Lagrangian submanifolds Hamiltonian isotopic to each…

Let $L$ be a compact oriented Lagrangian surface in a K\"ahler surface endowed with a complete Riemannian metric (compatible with the symplectic structure and the complex structure) with bounded sectional curvatures and a positive lower…

We uncover the lowest order differential invariants of Lagrangian submanifolds under affine symplectic maps, and find out what happens when they are constant.

We give an overview of theoretical and practical aspects of finding a simple polygon of minimum (Min-Area) or maximum (Max-Area) possible area for a given set of n points in the plane. Both problems are known to be NP-hard and were the…

We show the existence of a smooth spherical surface minimizing the Willmore functional subject to an area constraint in a compact Riemannian three-manifold, provided the area is small enough. Moreover, we classify complete surfaces of…

Let $A \subset \mathbb{R} ^2 $ be a smooth doubly connected domain. We consider the Dirichlet energy $E(u)=\int_{A} |\nabla u|^2$, where $u:A \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$, and look for critical points of this energy with prescribed modulus…

The 2-parameter family of certain homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifolds which includes Minkowski 3-space, de Sitter 3-space, and Minkowski motion group is considered. Each homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifold in the 2-parameter family has a…

Necessary optimality conditions in Lagrangian form and the sequential minimization framework are extended to mixed-integer nonlinear optimization, without any convexity assumptions. Building upon a recently developed notion of local…

Exploring the concept of the extended Galilei group G. Representations for field theories in a symplectic manifold have been derived in association with the method of the Wigner function. The representation is written in the light-cone of a…

We study the following rigidity problem in symplectic geometry:can one displace a Lagrangian submanifold from a hypersurface? We relate this to the Arnold Chord Conjecture, and introduce a refined question about the existence of relative…

Quantization problems suggest that the category of symplectic manifolds and symplectomorphisms be augmented by the inclusion of canonical relations as morphisms. These relations compose well when a transversality condition is satisfied, but…

We resolve the periodic square peg problem using a simple Lagrangian Floer homology argument. Inscribed squares are interpreted as intersections between two non-displaceable Lagrangian sub-manifolds of a symplectic 4-torus.
