A general Frobenius' Theorem via the Transport of Currents
Paolo Bonicatto
A classical result in Differential Geometry states that the flows of two smooth vector fields commute if and only if their Lie Bracket vanishes. In this work, we extend this result…
Well-posedness of the transport of normal currents by time-dependent vector fields
Paolo Bonicatto, Giacomo Del Nin
We prove existence and uniqueness for the transport equation for currents (Geometric Transport Equation) when the driving vector field is time-dependent, Lipschitz in space and mer…
Homogenization of elasto-plastic evolutions driven by the flow of dislocations
Paolo Bonicatto, Filip Rindler
Starting from a prototypical model of elasto-plasticity in the small-strain and quasi-static setting, where the evolution of the plastic distortion is driven exclusively by the mot…
A Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu representation for functions with bounded deformation
Adolfo Arroyo-Rabasa, Paolo Bonicatto
We establish a non-local integral difference quotient representation for symmetric gradient semi-norms in and , which does not require the manipulation of distributi…
On the structure of divergence-free measures on
Paolo Bonicatto, Nikolay A. Gusev
We consider the structure of divergence-free vector measures on the plane. We show that such measures can be decomposed into measures induced by closed simple curves. More generall…
