We prove a generalized version of the Morse index theorem for geodesics endowed with a non positive definite metric tensor (semi-Riemannian manifolds). We apply the result to obtain lower estimates on the number of geodesics joining two…

We give an exposition of the Morse Index Theorem in the Riemannian case in terms of the Maslov index, following and expanding upon Arnold's seminal paper. We emphasize the symplectic arguments in the proof and aim to be as self-contained as…

Index theorem is formulated in noncommutative geometry with finite degrees of freedom by using Ginsparg-Wilson relation. It is extended to the case where the gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken. Dynamical analysis about topological…

We develop the relative Morse index theory for linear self-adjoint operator equation without compactness assumption and give the relationship between the index defined in [44] and [45]. Then we generalize the method of saddle point…

We consider finite Morse index solutions to semilinear elliptic questions, and we investigate their smoothness. It is well-known that: - For $n=2$, there exist Morse index $1$ solutions whose $L^\infty$ norm goes to infinity. - For $n \geq…

We prove a semi-Riemannian version of the celebrated Morse Index Theorem for geodesics in semi-Riemannian manifolds; we consider the general case of both endpoints variable on two submanifolds. The key role of the theory is played by the…

The Witten index for certain supersymmetric lattice models treated by de Boer, van Eerten, Fendley, and Schoutens, can be formulated as a topological invariant of simplicial complexes arising as independence complexes of graphs. We prove a…

We prove an infinite analogue of the main theorem of discrete Morse theory formulated in terms of discrete Morse matchings. Our theorem holds under the assumption that the given Morse matching induces finitely many equivalence classes of…

Let $\gamma$ be a non-degenerate Ustilovsky geodesic in $Ham (M, \omega)$ generated by $H$. We give a simple proof of a generalization of the conjecture stated in \cite{virtmorse}, relating the Morse index of $ \gamma$, as a critical point…

In this paper, we study the multiplicity of Hamiltonian systems with P-boundary conditions.

We show that the sum of the Morse index and the nullity of Willmore immersions of bounded energy is lower semi-continuous without assuming that the limiting immersion and the bubbles are free of branch points. Our proof is based on a…

We find various lower and upper bounds for the index of Wente tori that contain a continuous family of planar principal curves. We then prove a result that gives an algorithm for computing the index sharply.

We prove the upper-semi-continuity of the Morse index plus nullity of critical points to general conformally invariant Lagrangians in dimension 2 under weak convergence. Precisely we establish that the sum of the Morse indices and the…

This paper contains a stronger version of a final identification theorem for the `generic' groups of finite Morley rank.

We consider a planar Hamiltonian system of the type $Jz' = \nabla_z H(t,z)$, where $H: \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ is a function periodic in the time variable, such that $\nabla_z H(t,0) \equiv 0$ and $\nabla_z H(t,z)$ is…

We show that the main theorem of Morse theory holds for a large class of functions on singular spaces. The function must satisfy certain conditions extending the usual requirements on a manifold that Condition C holds and the gradient flow…

We give a short proof of the Morse index theorem for geodesics in semi-Riemannian manifolds by using K-theory. This makes the Morse index theorem reminiscent of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for families of selfadjoint elliptic operators.

In this note, we study the equivalence of Morse and stable subgroups in the framework of the coset intersection complex. Under certain conditions on a coset intersection complex of a group, we prove that infinite-index Morse subgroups are…

An irreducible norm closed semigroup of complex matrices is simultaneously similar to a semigroup of partial isometries if and only if (a) the norms of all nonzero members of it are uniformly bounded above and below, and (b) its idempotents…

A simple version of exact finite dimensional reduction for the variational setting of mechanical systems is presented. It is worked out by means of a thorough global version of the implicit function theorem for monotone operators. Moreover,…
