Fredholm-Regularity Of Holomorphic Discs In Plane Bundles Over Compact Surfaces, Brendan Guilfoyle, Wilhelm Klingenberg Nov 2020

Fredholm-Regularity Of Holomorphic Discs In Plane Bundles Over Compact Surfaces, Brendan Guilfoyle, Wilhelm Klingenberg

Publications

We study the space of holomorphic discs with boundary on a surface in a real 2-dimensional vector bundle over a compact 2-manifold. We prove that, if the ambient 4-manifold admits a fibre-preserving transitive holomorphic action, then a section with a single complex point has C2,α-close sections such that any (non-multiply covered) holomorphic disc with boundary in these sections are Fredholm regular. Fredholm regularity is also established when the complex surface is neutral K¨ahler, the action is both holomorphic and symplectic, and the section is Lagrangian with a single complex point.


Dynamics Of Discontinuities In Elastic Solids, Arkadi Berezovski, Mihhail Berezovski Jul 2020

Dynamics Of Discontinuities In Elastic Solids, Arkadi Berezovski, Mihhail Berezovski

Publications

The paper is devoted to evolving discontinuities in elastic solids. A discontinuity is represented as a singular set of material points. Evolution of a discontinuity is driven by the configurational force acting at such a set. The main attention is paid to the determination of the velocity of a propagating discontinuity. Martensitic phase transition fronts and brittle cracks are considered as representative examples.


2n-Dimensional Canonical Systems And Applications, Andrei Ludu, Keshav Baj Acharya Jun 2020

2n-Dimensional Canonical Systems And Applications, Andrei Ludu, Keshav Baj Acharya

Publications

We study the 2N-dimensional canonical systems and discuss some properties of its fundamental solution. We then discuss the Floquet theory of periodic canonical systems and observe the asymptotic behavior of its solution. Some important physical applications of the systems are also discussed: linear stability of periodic Hamiltonian systems, position-dependent effective mass, pseudo-periodic nonlinear water waves, and Dirac systems.
