The paper “Biorthogonal stretching of an elastic membrane beneath a uniformly rotating fluid“, co-authored by Matt Turner and Patrick Weidman (University of Colorado), has been accepted for publication in Physical Review Fluids. The paper identifies exact solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations when a stretching surface is placed below a uniformly rotating layer of fluid. Two […]

Anne Skeldon and Derk-Jan Dijk (Surrey Sleep Research Centre) are leading a virtual discussion meeting on “Multilevel Dynamics of Human and Animal Sleep: Mathematical Models Meet Data“, running from 12-19 July. It consists of a series of five separate hour-long discussion sessions featuring leading international experts in sleep and circadian rhythms, mathematical modelling and data […]

The paper “Three-parameter deformation of ℝ × S3 in the Landau-Lifshitz limit“, co-authored by Juan Miguel Nieto Garcia and Leander Wyss, has been published in the Journal of High Energy Physics. They construct the effective field theory associated to the ℝ × S3 sector of the three-parameter deformation of AdS3 × S3 × T4 in […]

The paper “Toward simulating Superstring/M-theory on a quantum computer“, co-authored by Hrant Gharibyan (Cal Tech), Masanori Hanada, Masazumi Honda (Kyoto University), and Junyu Liu (Cal Tech), has been accepted for publication in the Journal of High Energy Physics. The paper presents a novel framework for simulating matrix models on a quantum computer. The prescription consists […]

The paper “Creation of discontinuities in circle maps“, co-authored by Gianne Derks, Paul Glendinning (Manchester), and Anne Skeldon, has been published this week in Proceedings A of the Royal Society of London (link here). Motivated by circle maps arising in biology, the paper studies the transitions in circle maps that occur near the creation of […]

The paper “Reaction-diffusion systems with supercritical nonlinearities revisited“, co-authored by Anna Kostianko, Chunyou Sun (Lanzhou University), and Sergey Zelik, has been published (gold open access) in Mathematische Annalen (link here). The paper gives a comprehensive study of the properties of a class of reaction diffusion equations, including global existence and uniqueness of weak and strong […]
