(In)stability of a two-dimensional dynamical system
Consider the following system of coupled differential equations
\begin{eqnarray*}
\dot{x}_1(t) & = & -x_1(t) - \cos(\omega t)x_1(t) + \cos(\omega t)x_2(t), \ x_1(0)\in\mathbb{R},\\
\dot{x}_2(t)...

Is there a mathematical and information theoretic explanation for this cube packing phenomenon?
I saw this unintuitive result on dice packing:
A jumble of thousands of cubic dice, agitated by an oscillating
rotation, can rapidly become completely ordered, a result that is hard
to produce with ...

KAM stable orbits are smooth
I'm in my final year of my undergraduate studies doing work on modelling the n-body problem numerically and I also have some interest in theoretical guarantees. Now, I've been looking for a theorem ...

How to derive explicit bound for the solution of following equation?
Let's have equation
$$
y''(t) + \left(\frac{3}{16t^{2}} + \frac{a}{t} -\frac{b}{t^{\frac{5}{4}}}cos(2t)\right)y(t) = 0, \quad t \in (1, \infty), \quad a, b > 0
$$
