    Uniqueness of Lagrangian Self-Expanders

    We show that zero-Maslov class Lagrangian self-expanders in C^n which are asymptotic to a pair of planes intersecting transversely are locally unique if n>2 and unique if n=2.Comment: 32 page

    Braneworlds, Conformal Fields and the Gravitons

    We investigate the dynamics of Randall-Sundrum AdS5 braneworlds with 5-dimensional conformal matter fields. In the scenario with a compact fifth dimension the class of conformal fields with weight -4 is associated with exact 5-dimensional warped geometries which are stable under radion field perturbations and describe on the brane the dynamics of inhomogeneous dust, generalized dark radiation and homogeneous polytropic dark energy. We analyse the graviton mode flutuations around this class of background solutions and determine their mass eigenvalues and wavefunctions from a Sturm-Liouville problem. We show that the localization of gravity is not sharp enough for large mass hierarchies to be generated. We also discuss the physical bounds imposed by experiments in particle physics, in astrophysics and in precise measurements of the low energy gravitational interaction.Comment: LaTeX, 9 pages, 2 figures.

    A strong form of almost differentiability

    Get PDF
    We present a uniformization of Reeken's macroscopic differentiability (see [5]), discuss its relations to uniform differentiability (see [6]) and classical continuous differentiability, prove the corresponding chain rule, Taylor's theorem, mean value theorem, and inverse mapping theorem. An attempt to compare it with the observability (see [1, 4]) is made too. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.CEOCFCTFEDER/POCT

    Wellposedness for stochastic continuity equations with Ladyzhenskaya-Prodi-Serrin condition

    Full text link
    We consider the stochastic divergence-free continuity equations with Ladyzhenskaya-Prodi-Serrin condition. Wellposedness is proved meanwhile uniqueness may fail for the deterministic PDE. The main issue of uniqueness realies on stochastic characteristic method and the generalized Ito-Ventzel-Kunita formula. Moreover, we prove a stability property for the solution with respect to the initial datum.Comment: To appears in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Applications NoDE
