Hot tearing is a major defect of solidification processes and welding. It occurs in metallic alloys while they are in the semi-solid state and is caused by a lack of liquid feeding in the mushy zone to compensate solid network openings due to tensile and s ...
We generalize Cohen & Jones & Segal's flow category, whose objects are the critical points of a Morse function and whose morphisms are the Morse moduli spaces between the critical points to an n-category. The n-category construction involves repeatedly doi ...
We formulate the Nahm transform in the context of parabolic Higgs bundles on P^1 and extend its scope in completely algebraic terms. This transform requires parabolic Higgs bundles to satisfy an admissibility condition and allows Higgs fields to have poles ...
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a large Cherenkov detector instrumenting of Antarctic ice. The detector can be used to search for signatures of particle physics beyond the Standard Model. Here, we describe the search for non-relativistic, magnetic mono ...
We study equations on a principal bundle over a compact complex manifold coupling a connection on the bundle with a Kahler structure on the base. These equations generalize the conditions of constant scalar curvature for a Kahler metric and Hermite-Yang-Mi ...
We point out an interesting relation between transport in Hamiltonian dynamics and Floer homology. We generalize homoclinic Floer homology from R-2 and closed surfaces to two-dimensional cylinders. The relative symplectic action of two homoclinic points is ...
