Parametric oscillators are examples of externally driven systems that can exhibit two stable states with opposite phase depending on the initial conditions. In this work, we propose to study what happens when the external forcing is perturbed by a continuo ...

Asymmetric phase modulation of light with parity-symmetry broken metasurfaces

Karim Achouri, Jean-Yves Duboz

The design of wavefront-shaping devices is conventionally approached using real-frequency modeling. However, since these devices interact with light through radiative channels, they are by default non-Hermitian objects having complex eigenvalues (poles and ...

Arithmetic and geometric deformations of threefolds

Stefano Filipazzi, Fabio Bernasconi

We show that mixed-characteristic and equicharacteristic small deformations of 3-dimensional canonical (resp., terminal) singularities with perfect residue field of characteristic p>5 are canonical (resp., terminal). We discuss applications to arithmetic a ...

Propagation of singularities for the stochastic wave equation

Cheuk Yin Lee

We study the existence and propagation of singularities of the solution to a one-dimensional linear stochastic wave equation driven by an additive Gaussian noise that is white in time and colored in space. Our approach is based on a simultaneous law of the ...

Covers Of Rational Double Points In Mixed Characteristic

Javier Alonso Carvajal Rojas

We further the classification of rational surface singularities. Suppose (S, n, k) is a 3-dimensional strictly Henselian regular local ring of mixed characteristic (0, p > 5). We classify functions f for which S/(f) has an isolated rational singularity at ...

The emergence of crack-like behavior of frictional rupture: Edge singularity and energy balance

Jean-François Molinari, Thibault Didier Roch, Fabian Barras

The failure of frictional interfaces - the process of frictional rupture - is widely assumed to feature crack-like properties, with far-reaching implications for various disciplines, ranging from engineering tribology to earthquake physics. An important co ...

From the Principle of Inertia to the Death Drive: The Influence of the Second Law of Thermodynamics on the Freudian Theory of the Psychical Apparatus

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Philippe Ansermet

In the Freudian theory of the psychical apparatus, the introduction from the 1920s onward of the second drive dualism appears as a major turning point. The idea of a "death drive," first expressed in Beyond the Pleasure Principle (Freud, 1920), is generall ...

We give an answer to a question posed in Amorim et al. (ESAIM Math Model Numer Anal 49(1):19–37, 2015), which can loosely speaking, be formulated as follows: consider a family of continuity equations where the velocity depends on the solution via the convo ...

Viscous growth and rebound of a bubble near a rigid surface

François Gallaire, Giacomo Gallino

Motivated by the dynamics of microbubbles near catalytic surfaces in bubble-powered microrockets, we consider theoretically the growth of a free spherical bubble near a flat no-slip surface in a Stokes flow. The flow at the bubble surface is characterised ...
