We study fluid distributions endowed with hyperbolical symmetry, which share many common features with Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) solutions (e.g. they are geodesic, shearing, non--conformally flat and the energy density is inhomogeneous).…
In this paper we study the ergodic properties of mathematical billiards describing the uniform motion of a point in a flat torus from which finitely many, pairwise disjoint, tubular neighborhoods of translated subtori (the so called…
We study the relationship between the Lyapunov exponents of the geodesic flow of a closed negatively curved manifold and the geometry of the manifold. We show that if each periodic orbit of the geodesic flow has exactly one Lyapunov…
We introduce and study the mechanical system which describes the dynamics and statics of rigid bodies of constant density floating in a calm incompressible fluid. Since much of the standard equilibrium theory, starting with Archimedes,…
In the present article, we consider a thermoelastic plate of Reissner-Mindlin-Timoshenko type with the hyperbolic heat conduction arising from Cattaneo's law. In the absense of any additional mechanical dissipations, the system is often not…
Symmetric hyperbolic systems of equations are explicitly constructed for a general class of tensor fields by considering their structure as r-fold forms. The hyperbolizations depend on 2r-1 arbitrary timelike vectors. The importance of the…
We study a complex non-newtonian fluid that models the flow of nematic liquid crystals. The fluid is described by a system that couples a forced Navier-Stokes system with a parabolic-type system. We prove the existence of global weak…
We consider some general classes of random dynamical systems and show that a priori very weak nonuniform hyperbolicity conditions actually imply uniform hyperbolicity.
Wojtkowski's system of $N$, $N \geq 2$, falling balls is a nonuniformly hyperbolic smooth dynamical system with singularities. It is still an open question whether this system is ergodic. We contribute towards an affirmative answer, by…
We show the existence of a family of manifolds on which all (pointwise or absolutely) partially hyperbolic systems are dynamically coherent. This family is the set of 3-manifolds with nilpotent, non-abelian fundamental group. We further…
The existence of static self-gravitating Newtonian elastic balls is proved under general assumptions on the constitutive equations of the elastic material. The proof uses methods from the theory of finite-dimensional dynamical systems and…
In this paper, we study diagonal hyperbolic systems in one space dimension. Based on a new gradient entropy estimate, we prove the global existence of a continuous solution, for large and non-decreasing initial data. We remark that these…
We consider the Cauchy problem for first order systems. Assuming that the set of the singular points of the characteristic variety is a smooth manifold and the characteristic values are real and semi-simple we introduce a new class which is…
We are interested in studying sets of the form \[ \mathcal{U}(\alpha) := \left\{ x\in X: \ \exists M=M(x) \geq 1 \text{ such that } \forall N\geq M, \ \exists n\leq N \text{ such that } d(T^nx, x) \leq |\lambda|^{-\alpha N} \right\} \]…
Given a hyperbolic homeomorphism on a compact metric space, consider the space of linear cocycles over this base dynamics which are H\"older continuous and whose projective actions are partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. We prove that…
We study a class of non-linear parabolic systems relevant in turbulence theory. Those systems can be viewed as simplified versions of the Prandtl one-equation and Kolmogorov two-equation models of turbulence. We restrict our attention to…
Special relativity corresponds to hyperbolic geometry at constant velocity while the so-called general relativity corresponds to hyperbolic geometry of uniformly accelerated systems. Generalized expressions for angular momentum, centrifugal…
We consider a non-linear system modelling the dynamics of a linearly elastic body immersed in an incompressible viscous fluid, without damping on the elastic part. We prove local existence of strong solutions and global existence and…
We compute the full Lyapunov spectra for a hard-disk fluid under temperature gradient and shear. The system is thermalized by deterministic and time-reversible scattering at the boundary. This thermostating mechanism allows for energy…
We consider closed curves in the hyperbolic space moving by the $L^2$-gradient flow of the elastic energy and prove well-posedness and long time existence. Under the additional penalisation of the length we show subconvergence to critical…
