A Degenerate Isoperimetric Problem and Traveling Waves to a Bi-stable Hamiltonian System
Stan Alama, Lia Bronsard, Andres Contreras +2
We analyze a non-standard isoperimetric problem in the plane associated with a metric having degenerate conformal factor at two points. Under certain assumptions on the conformal f…

Dimension reduction for the Landau-de Gennes model in planar nematic thin films
Dmitry Golovaty, José Alberto Montero, Peter Sternberg
We use the method of -convergence to study the behavior of the Landau-de Gennes model for a nematic liquid crystalline film in the limit of vanishing thickness. In this asymptot…
