Scalar differential invariants of symplectic Monge-Ampère equations

Alessandro Paris, Alexandre Vinogradov (2011)

Open Mathematics

All second order scalar differential invariants of symplectic hyperbolic and elliptic Monge-Ampère equations with respect to symplectomorphisms are explicitly computed. In particular, it is shown that the number of independent second order invariants is equal to 7, in sharp contrast with general Monge-Ampère equations for which this number is equal to 2. We also introduce a series of invariant differential forms and vector fields which allow us to construct numerous scalar differential invariants...

Semi-classical measures for generalized plane waves

Colin Guillarmou (2011/2012)

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

Following joint work with Dyatlov [DyGu], we describe the semi-classical measures associated with generalized plane waves for metric perturbation of d , under the condition that the geodesic flow has trapped set K of Liouville measure 0 .

Some decay properties for the damped wave equation on the torus

Nalini Anantharaman, Matthieu Léautaud (2012)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

This article is a proceedings version of the ongoing work [1], and has been the object of a talk of the second author during the Journées “Équations aux Dérivées Partielles” (Biarritz, 2012).We address the decay rates of the energy of the damped wave equation when the damping coefficient b does not satisfy the Geometric Control Condition (GCC). First, we give a link with the controllability of the associated Schrödinger equation. We prove that the observability of the Schrödinger group implies that...

The radiation field is a Fourier integral operator

Antônio Sá Barreto, Jared Wunsch (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We show that the ``radiation field'' introduced by F.G. Friedlander, mapping Cauchy data for the wave equation to the rescaled asymptotic behavior of the wave, is a Fourier integral operator on any non-trapping asymptotically hyperbolic or asymptotically conic manifold. The underlying canonical relation is associated to a ``sojourn time'' or ``Busemann function'' for geodesics. As a consequence we obtain some information about the high frequency behavior of the scattering...

The wave map problem. Small data critical regularity

Igor Rodnianski (2005/2006)

Séminaire Bourbaki

The paper provides a description of the wave map problem with a specific focus on the breakthrough work of T. Tao which showed that a wave map, a dynamic lorentzian analog of a harmonic map, from Minkowski space into a sphere with smooth initial data and a small critical Sobolev norm exists globally in time and remains smooth. When the dimension of the base Minkowski space is ( 2 + 1 ) , the critical norm coincides with energy, the only manifestly conserved quantity in this (lagrangian) theory. As a consequence,...

Transversal biwave maps

Yuan-Jen Chiang, Robert A. Wolak (2010)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper, we prove that the composition of a transversal biwave map and a transversally totally geodesic map is a transversal biwave map. We show that there are biwave maps which are not transversal biwave maps, and there are transversal biwave maps which are not biwave maps either. We prove that if f is a transversal biwave map satisfying certain condition, then f is a transversal wave map. We finally study the transversal conservation laws of transversal biwave maps.
