Jean-Marie Souriau’s Symplectic Foliation Model of Sadi Carnot’s Thermodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
The explanation of thermodynamics through geometric models was initiated by seminal figures such as Carnot, Gibbs, Duhem, Reeb, and Carathéodory. Only recently, however, has the symplectic foliation model, introduced within the domain of geometric ...

Hilbert-Haar coordinates and Miranda's theorem in Lie groups

open access: yesBruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2020
We study the interior regularity of solutions to a class of quasilinear equations of non-degenerate p-Laplacian type on Lie groups that admit a system of Hilbert-Haar coordinates. These are coordinates with respect to which every linear function has zero

A Cornucopia of Carnot Groups in Low Dimensions

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2022
Stratified groups are those simply connected Lie groups whose Lie algebras admit a derivation for which the eigenspace with eigenvalue 1 is Lie generating.

DFT screening of adsorption of biodiesel molecules on aluminum and stainless steel surfaces

open access: yesResults in Surfaces and Interfaces, 2022
We present a Density Functional Theory (DFT) study of the adsorption of small organic molecules, taken as models of biodiesel autoxidation products, on stainless steel and aluminum surfaces.

Nature and importance of follicular lymphoma precursors

open access: yesHaematologica, 2014
It is now widely recognized that cancer development is a protracted process requiring the stepwise acquisition of multiple oncogenic events. In humans, this process can take decades, if not a lifetime, blurring the notion of ‘healthy’ individuals ...

On Viscosity and Equivalent Notions of Solutions for Anisotropic Geometric Equations

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2020
We prove that viscosity solutions of geometric equations in step two Carnot groups can be equivalently reformulated by restricting the set of test functions at the singular points.

Nonexistence Results for Semilinear Equations in Carnot Groups

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2013
In this paper, following [3], we provide some nonexistence results for semilinear equations in the the class of Carnot groups of type ★.This class, see [20], contains, in particular, all groups of step 2; like the Heisenberg group, and also Carnot ...

Differentiability and ApproximateDifferentiability for Intrinsic LipschitzFunctions in Carnot Groups and a RademacherTheorem

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2014
A Carnot group G is a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie group with stratified Lie algebra.We study intrinsic Lipschitz graphs and intrinsic differentiable graphs within Carnot groups.

A Primer on Carnot Groups: Homogenous Groups, Carnot-Carathéodory Spaces, and Regularity of Their Isometries

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2018
Carnot groups are distinguished spaces that are rich of structure: they are those Lie groups equipped with a path distance that is invariant by left-translations of the group and admit automorphisms that are dilations with respect to the distance.
