Finite-dimensional perturbations

Singular Perturbations of Finite Dimensional Gradient Flows

In this paper we give a description of the asymptotic behavior, as ε → 0, of the ε-gradient flow in the finite dimensional case. Under very general assumptions we prove that it converges to an evolution obtained by connecting some smooth branches of solutions to the equilibrium equation (slow dynamics) through some heteroclinic solutions of the gradient flow (fast dynamics).

Curvature perturbations from dimensional decoupling

The scalar modes of the geometry induced by dimensional decoupling are investigated. In the context of the low energy string effective action, solutions can be found where the spatial part of the background geometry is the direct product of two maximally symmetric Euclidean manifolds whose related scale factors evolve at a dual rate so that the expanding dimensions first accelerate and then dec...

Gravitational Perturbations of Higher Dimensional Rotating Black Holes: Tensor Perturbations

Assessing the stability of higher-dimensional rotating black holes requires a study of linearized gravitational perturbations around such backgrounds. We study perturbations of Myers-Perry black holes with equal angular momenta in an odd number of dimensions (greater than five), allowing for a cosmological constant. We find a class of perturbations for which the equations of motion reduce to a ...

Stabilization with finite dimensional controllers for a periodic parabolic system under perturbations in the system conductivity

Abstract. This work studies the stabilization for a periodic parabolic system under perturbations in the system conductivity. A perturbed system does not have any periodic solution in general. However, we will prove that the perturbed system can always be pulled back to a periodic system after imposing a control from a fixed finite dimensional subspace. The paper continues the author’s previous...
