The natural partial ordering of the orbit types of the action of the group of local gauge transformations on the space of connections in space-time dimension d ≤ 4 is investigated. For that purpose, a description of orbit types in terms of cohomology elements of space-time, derived earlier, is used. It is shown that, on the level of these cohomology elements, the partial ordering relation is ch...

This paper presents the ability of a new group contribution equation of state in the prediction of thermodynamic properties of alcohols, ketones and ethers. This equation of state, called MCORGC, is based on the Chain-Of-Rotators Group Contribution equation considering a NRTL type local composition mixing rule. The group parameters required to predict the thermodynamic properties of the oxygena...

We consider the (KdV)/(KP-I) asymptotic regime for the Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation with a general nonlinearity. In a previous work, we have proved the convergence to the Korteweg-de Vries equation (in dimension 1) and to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation (in higher dimensions) by a compactness argument. We propose a weakly transverse Boussinesq type system formally equivalent to the (KdV)/...

in this paper‎, ‎we prove a multiplicity result for some biharmonic elliptic equation of kirchhoff type and involving nonlinearities with critical exponential growth at infinity‎. ‎using some variational arguments and exploiting the symmetries of the problem‎, ‎we establish a multiplicity result giving two nontrivial solutions‎.
