A spinorial energy functional: Critical points and gradient flow
On the universal bundle of unit spinors we study a natural energy functional whose critical points, if dimM ≥ 3, are precisely the pairs (g,φ) consisting of a Ricci-flat Riemannian metric g together with a parallel g-spinor φ. We investigate the basic properties of this functional and study its negative gradient flow, the so-called spinor flow. In particular, we prove short-time existence and u...
متن کاملLine tensions, correlation lengths, and critical exponents in lipid membranes near critical points.
Membranes containing a wide variety of ternary mixtures of high chain-melting temperature lipids, low chain-melting temperature lipids, and cholesterol undergo lateral phase separation into coexisting liquid phases at a miscibility transition. When membranes are prepared from a ternary lipid mixture at a critical composition, they pass through a miscibility critical point at the transition temp...
متن کاملBehavior of Accelerated Gradient Methods near Critical Points of Nonconvex Problems∗
We examine the behavior of accelerated gradient methods in smooth nonconvex unconstrained optimization. Each of these methods is typically a linear combination of a gradient direction and the previous step. We show by means of the stable manifold theorem that the heavyball method method does not converge to critical points that do not satisfy second-order necessary conditions. We then examine t...
متن کاملVisualizing Dynamical Systems near Critical Points
In this paper we present two visualization techniques. One uses the topological structure of the dynamical system near critical points to build an abstract description of the ow. The other places bunches of streamlets around the critical points to visualize the ow characteristics locally. Combining both methods a powerful visualization technique is present, since both the topological informatio...
متن کاملDynamics and Transport near Quantum-critical Points
The physics of non-zero temperature dynamics and transport near quantum-critical points is discussed by a detailed study of the O(N)symmetric, relativistic, quantum field theory of a N -component scalar field in d spatial dimensions. A great deal of insight is gained from a simple, exact solution of the long-time dynamics for the N = 1 d = 1 case: this model describes the critical point of the ...
