Building a geodesic conjugate parameterization on catenoid
I believe that a catenoid supports a parametrization $\sigma : U \subset \mathbb{R}^2 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3$ that forms a conjugate system (i.e., $\sigma_{uv} \in\mathrm{span}(\sigma_u, \sigma_v)$) ...

A system of linear PDEs with boundary conditions
I'm researching on discrete/semi-discrete/smooth differential geometry. Recently, I could simplify one of my geometric problems (in the smooth scenario) into the solutions of a system of linear PDEs ...

Equivalence problem of classifying heat equations
I have tried to search for references online but I am unable to do so.
I am looking for references that uses Cartan's method of moving frames to classify heat equations.
Also are there references that ...

Generalized definition of integrable condition on rough complex subbundle
Assume object are smooth at first. If we consider real subbundle, we can define integrability in terms of parameterization or coordinate.
A rank $r$ real subbundle $\mathcal V\le TM$ is called ...

How to solve the system of PDEs defining Killing vectors
Recently I came across the following problem. Here's the setting:
Let $(M^n,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold, $\nabla$ the Levi-Civita connection, and $U$ a coordinate neighbourhood with coordinates $\{x^...

Proof of Arnold-Liouville theorem in classical mechanics [closed]
I am currently reading Arnold's book "Mathematical Methods of classical mechanics" on page 278 and I don't see through his arguments there at a point.
Especially, I am talking about the part that ...

Weinstein's local classification of Lagrangian foliations
In the paper "Symplectic manifolds and their Lagrangian submanifolds", Weinstein showed that locally all the Lagrangian foliations are symplectomorhic to the fiber foliation of a cotangent bundle.
I ...

Weakest condition for an integrable, almost-symplectic manifold?
I was recently speaking with someone who works in Computational Chemistry and they mentioned that in a lot of the computational simulations they do, they have systems that are not symplectic but still ...
