Let [Formula: see text] be a smooth irreducible projective curve and let [Formula: see text] be a complete and generated linear series on [Formula: see text]. Denote by [Formula: see text] the kernel of the evaluation map [Formula: see text]. The exact sequence [Formula: see text] fits into a commutative diagram that we call the Butler’s diagram. This diagram induces in a natural way a multiplication map on global sections [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a subspace and [Formula: see text] is the dual of a subbundle [Formula: see text]. When the subbundle [Formula: see text] is a stable bundle, we show that the map [Formula: see text] is surjective. When [Formula: see text] is a Brill–Noether general curve, we use the surjectivity of [Formula: see text] to give another proof of the semistability of [Formula: see text], moreover, we fill up a gap in some incomplete argument by Butler: With the surjectivity of [Formula: see text] we give conditions to determine the stability of [Formula: see text], and such conditions imply the well-known stability conditions for [Formula: see text] stated precisely by Butler. Finally we obtain the equivalence between the (semi)stability of [Formula: see text] and the linear (semi)stability of [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text]-gonal curves.

Let C be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus g and L a line bundle of degree d generated by a linear subspace V of H0(L) of dimension n + 1. We prove a conjecture of D. C. Butler on the semistability of the kernel of the evaluation map V ⊗ 𝒪C → L and obtain new results on the stability of this kernel. The natural context for this problem is the theory of coherent systems on curves and our techniques involve wall crossing formulae in this theory.

Abstract This paper aims at settling the issue of the validity of the de Jonquières formulas. Consider the space of divisors with prescribed multiplicity, or de Jonquières divisors, contained in a linear series on a smooth projective curve. Under the assumption that this space is zero dimensional, the de Jonquières formulas compute the expected number of de Jonquières divisors. Using degenerations to nodal curves we show that, for a general curve equipped with a complete linear series, the space is of expected dimension, which shows that the counts are in fact true. This implies that in the case of negative expected dimension a general linear series on a general curve does not admit de Jonquières divisors of the expected type.

An introduction to the theory of dynamical systems on networks. This chapter starts with a short introduction to classical (non-network) dynamical systems theory, including linear stability analysis, fixed points, and limit cycles. Dynamical systems on networks are introduced, focusing initially on systems with only one variable per node and progressing to multi-variable systems. Linear stability analysis is developed in detail, leading to master stability conditions and the connection between stability and the spectral properties of networks. The chapter ends with a discussion of synchronization phenomena, the stability of limit cycles, and master stability conditions for synchronization.

Abstract In this paper, I study the conditions imposed on a normal charged fluid so that the causality and stability criteria hold for this fluid. I adopt the newly developed General Frame (GF) notion in the relativistic hydrodynamics framework which states that hydrodynamic frames have to be fixed after applying the stability and causality conditions. To do this, I take a charged conformal matter in the flat and 3 + 1 dimension to analyze better these conditions. The causality condition is applied by looking to the asymptotic velocity of sound hydro modes at the large wave number limit and stability conditions are imposed by looking to the imaginary parts of hydro modes as well as the Routh-Hurwitz criteria. By fixing some of the transports, the suitable spaces for other ones are derived. I observe that in a dense medium having a finite U(1) charge with chemical potential μ0, negative values for transports appear and the second law of thermodynamics has not ruled out the existence of such values. Sign of scalar transports are not limited by any constraints and just a combination of vector transports is limited by the second law of thermodynamic. Also numerically it is proved that the most favorable region for transports $$ {\tilde{\upgamma}}_{1,2}, $$ γ ˜ 1 , 2 , coefficients of the dissipative terms of the current, is of negative values.

AbstractThe main challenge of the stability analysis for general polynomial control systems is that non-convex terms exist in the stability conditions, which hinders solving the stability conditions numerically. Most approaches in the literature impose constraints on the Lyapunov function candidates or the non-convex related terms to circumvent this problem. Motivated by this difficulty, in this paper, we confront the non-convex problem directly and present an iterative stability analysis to address the long-standing problem in general polynomial control systems. Different from the existing methods, no constraints are imposed on the polynomial Lyapunov function candidates. Therefore, the limitations on the Lyapunov function candidate and non-convex terms are eliminated from the proposed analysis, which makes the proposed method more general than the state-of-the-art. In the proposed approach, the stability for the general polynomial model is analyzed and the original non-convex stability conditions are developed. To solve the non-convex stability conditions through the sum-of-squares programming, the iterative stability analysis is presented. The feasible solutions are verified by the original non-convex stability conditions to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the general polynomial system. The detailed simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The simulation results show that the proposed approach is more capable to find feasible solutions for the general polynomial control systems when compared with the existing ones.

The linear stability of compressible plane Couette flow is investigated. The appropriate basic velocity and temperature distributions are perturbed by a small-amplitude normal-mode disturbance. The full small-amplitude disturbance equations are solved numerically at finite Reynolds numbers, and the inviscid limit of these equations is then investigated in some detail. It is found that instabilities can occur, although the corresponding growth rates are often quite small; the stability characteristics of the flow are quite different from unbounded flows. The effects of viscosity are also calculated, asymptotically, and shown to have a stabilizing role in all the cases investigated. Exceptional regimes to the problem occur when the wave speed of the disturbances approaches the velocity of either of the walls, and these regimes are also analysed in some detail. Finally, the effect of imposing radiation-type boundary conditions on the upper (moving) wall (in place of impermeability) is investigated, and shown to yield results common to both bounded and unbounded flows.

Abstract The lateral stability of railroad vehicles travelling on tangent tracks is one of the important problems that has been the subject of extensive research since the nineteenth century. Early detailed studies of this problem in the twentieth century are the work of Carter and Rocard on the stability of locomotives. The linear theory for the lateral stability analysis has been extensively used in the past and can give good results under certain operating conditions. In this paper, the results obtained using a linear stability analysis are compared with the results obtained using a general nonlinear multibody methodology. In the linear stability analysis, the sources of the instability are investigated using Liapunov’s linear theory and the eigenvalue analysis for a simple wheelset model on a tangent track. The effects of the stiffness of the primary and secondary suspensions on the stability results are investigated. The results obtained for the simple model using the linear approach are compared with the results obtained using a new nonlinear multibody based constrained wheel/rail contact formulation. This comparative numerical study can be used to validate the use of the constrained wheel/rail contact formulation in the study of lateral stability. Similar studies can be used in the future to define the limitations of the linear theory under general operating conditions.
