This essentially numerical study, sets out to investigate various geometrical properties of exact boundary controllability of the wave
equation when the control is applied on a part of the boundary. Relationships between the geometry of the domain, the geometry of
the controlled boundary, the time needed to control and the energy of the control are dealt with. A new norm of the control and an
energetic cost factor are introduced. These quantities enable a detailed appraisal of the numerical solutions...
We describe some recent results on a specific nonlinear hydrodynamical problem where the geometric approach gives insight into a variety of aspects.
Cet article présente les idées, les outils et les résultats qui ont permis à Chang S.-Y. A., M. Gursky et Yang P. de donner une caractérisation intégrale conforme de la sphère standard en dimension 4. Nous démarrons avec une généralisation à cette dimension de la formule de Polyakov pour les déterminants régularisés, que nous utilisons ensuite pour résoudre des problèmes du type “Yamabe” pour des polynômes quadratiques en la courbure de Ricci. Nous introduisons au passage le concept de paire conforme,...
We survey two problems illustrating geometric-topological and Hamiltonian methods in fluid mechanics: energy relaxation of a magnetic field and conservation laws for ideal fluid motion. More details and results, as well as a guide to the literature on these topics can be found in [3].
This is the first of three papers on the geometry of KDV. It presents what purports to be a foliation of an extensive function space into which all known invariant manifolds of KDV fit naturally as special leaves. The two main themes are addition (each leaf has its private one) and unimodal spectral classes (each leaf has a spectral interpretation).
We study rolling maps of the Euclidean ellipsoid, rolling upon its affine tangent space at a point. Driven by the geometry of rolling maps, we find a simple formula for the angular velocity of the rolling ellipsoid along any piecewise smooth curve in terms of the Gauss map. This result is then generalised to rolling any smooth hyper-surface. On the way, we derive a formula for the Gaussian curvature of an ellipsoid which has an elementary proof and has been previously known only for dimension two....
On sait depuis Maslov, Arnold, etc... associer à presque tout germe de variété lagrangienne ou legendrienne lisse une classe de fonctions oscillantes qui sous des hypothèses génériques à la Thom fournissent des modèles universels pour le comportement d’une onde lumineuse au voisinage de la caustique.Le présent article étend cette construction à une classe de situations où la variété caractéristique est un germe singulier (union de composantes lisses), qui peut néanmoins être stable en ce sens que...
