AbstractWe investigate the effect of (interface) surface tensor on the linear Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) instability in stratified incompressible viscous fluids. The existence of linear RT instability solutions with largest growth rate Λ is proved under the instability condition (i.e., the surface tension coefficient ϑ is less than a threshold $\vartheta _{\mathrm{c}}$ ϑ c ) by the modified variational method of PDEs. Moreover, we find a new upper bound for Λ. In particular, we directly observe from the upper bound that Λ decreasingly converges to zero as ϑ goes from zero to the threshold $\vartheta _{\mathrm{c}}$ ϑ c .

A statically stable, gravitationally stratified compressible fluid containing a parallel shear flow is examined for stability against infinitesimal adiabatic perturbations. It is found that the Miles–Howard theorem of incompressible fluids may be generalized to this system, so that n2 ≥ ¼U′2 throughout the flow is a sufficient condition for stability. Here n2 is the Brunt–Väissälä frequency and U’ is the vertical gradient of the flow speed. Howard's upper bound on the growth rate of an unstable mode also generalizes to this compressible system.

Context. Pebble accretion is expected to be the dominant process for the formation of massive solid planets, such as the cores of giant planets and super-Earths. So far, this process has been studied under the assumption that dust coagulates and drifts throughout the full protoplanetary disk. However, observations show that many disks are structured in rings that may be due to pressure maxima, preventing the global radial drift of the dust. Aims. We aim to study how the pebble-accretion paradigm changes if the dust is confined in a ring. Methods. Our approach is mostly analytic. We derived a formula that provides an upper bound to the growth of a planet as a function of time. We also numerically implemented the analytic formulæ to compute the growth of a planet located in a typical ring observed in the DSHARP survey, as well as in a putative ring rescaled at 5 AU. Results. Planet Type I migration is stopped in a ring, but not necessarily at its center. If the entropy-driven corotation torque is desaturated, the planet is located in a region with low dust density, which severely limits its accretion rate. If the planet is instead near the ring’s center, its accretion rate can be similar to the one it would have in a classic (ringless) disk of equivalent dust density. However, the growth rate of the planet is limited by the diffusion of dust in the ring, and the final planet mass is bounded by the total ring mass. The DSHARP rings are too far from the star to allow the formation of massive planets within the disk’s lifetime. However, a similar ring rescaled to 5 AU could lead to the formation of a planet incorporating the full ring mass in less than 1/2 My. Conclusions. The existence of rings may not be an obstacle to planet formation by pebble-accretion. However, for accretion to be effective, the resting position of the planet has to be relatively near the ring’s center, and the ring needs to be not too far from the central star. The formation of planets in rings can explain the existence of giant planets with core masses smaller than the so-called pebble isolation mass.

Abstract We study charged black hole solutions in 4-dimensional (4D) Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet–Maxwell theory to the linearized perturbation level. We first compute the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio. We then demonstrate how bulk causal structure analysis imposes an upper bound on the Gauss–Bonnet coupling constant in the AdS space. Causality constrains the value of Gauss–Bonnet coupling constant $$\alpha _{GB}$$αGB to be bounded by $$\alpha _{GB}\le 0$$αGB≤0 as $$D\rightarrow 4$$D→4.

We study some properties of the Cayley graph of R. Thompson's group F in generators x0, x1. We show that the density of this graph, that is, the least upper bound of the average vertex degree of its finite subgraphs is at least 3. It is known that a 2-generated group is not amenable if and only if the density of the corresponding Cayley graph is strictly less than 4. It is well known this is also equivalent to the existence of a doubling function on the Cayley graph. This means there exists a mapping from the set of vertices into itself such that for some constant K>0, each vertex moves by a distance at most K and each vertex has at least two preimages. We show that the density of the Cayley graph of a 2-generated group does not exceed 3 if and only if the group satisfies the above condition with K=1. Besides, we give a very easy formula to find the length (norm) of a given element of F in generators x0, x1. This simplifies the algorithm by Fordham. The length formula may be useful for finding the general growth function of F in generators x0, x1 and the growth rate of this function. In this paper, we show that the growth rate of F has a lower bound of [Formula: see text].

Unitarity considerations imply an upper bound on the value of the one-instanton-induced B and L violating cross-section at which multi-instanton contributions become of comparable order. The bound is inversely proportional to a sum of positive-definite terms and, most likely, keeps any reliable one-instanton cross-section exponentially suppressed.
