Looping probabilities of elastic chains: A path integral approach

John Maddocks, Ludovica Cotta-Ramusino

We consider an elastic chain at thermodynamic equilibrium with a heat bath, and derive an approximation to the probability density function, or pdf, governing the relative location and orientation of the two ends of the chain. Our motivation is to exploit ...

Symmetry Reduced Dynamics of Charged Molecular Strands

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

The equations of motion are derived for the dynamical folding of charged molecular strands (such as DNA) modeled as flexible continuous filamentary distributions of interacting rigid charge conformations. The new feature is that these equations are nonloca ...

The Momentum Map, Symplectic Reduction and an Introduction to Brownian Motion

The underlying goal of this Master's thesis is of laying down, in so far as possible, the foundations for later work in Geometric Stochastic Mechanics. The first part is a presentation of symplectic reduction, going through the momentum map and culminating ...

Hamiltonian approach to hybrid plasma models

Cesare Tronci

The Hamiltonian structures of several hybrid kinetic-fluid models are identified explicitly, upon considering collisionless Vlasov dynamics for the hot particles interacting with a bulk fluid. After presenting different pressure-coupling schemes for an ord ...

The radial wave operator in similarity coordinates

Roland Donninger

We present a rigorous functional analytic setting to study the radial wave equation in similarity coordinates. As an application we analyze linear stability of the fundamental self-similar solution of the wave equation with a focusing power nonlinearity. T ...

Nonlinear Stability of Self-Similar Solutions for Semilinear Wave Equations

Roland Donninger

We prove nonlinear stability of the fundamental self-similar solution of the wave equation with a focusing power nonlinearity tt-=p for [image omitted] in the radial case. The proof is based on a semigroup formulation of the wave equation in similarity coo ...

The geometric structure of complex fluids

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz

This paper develops the theory of affine Euler-Poincare and affine Lie-Poisson reductions and applies these processes to various examples of complex fluids, including Yang-Mills and Hall magnetohydrodynamics for fluids and superfluids, spin glasses, microf ...

Asymptotics and analytic modes for the wave equation in similarity coordinates

Roland Donninger

We consider the radial wave equation in similarity coordinates within the semigroup formalism. It is known that the generator of the semigroup exhibits a continuum of eigenvalues and embedded in this continuum there exists a discrete set of eigenvalues wit ...

Differential geometry: a natural tool for describing symmetry operations

Gervais Chapuis, Kurt Schenk, Philippe Kocian

Differential geometry provides a useful mathematical framework for describing the fundamental concepts in crystallography. The notions of point and associated vector spaces correspond to those of manifold and tangent space at a given point. A space-group o ...

Ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots

Rico Rueedi

We investigate the ground state properties of large atoms and quantum dots described by a d-dimensional N-body Hamiltonian of confinement ZV. In atoms, d = 3 and V is the Coulomb interaction; in dots, d = 2 and V is phenomenologically determined. We expres ...
