We outline the geometric formulation of cosmological flows for FLRW models with the scalar matter as well as certain aspects which arise in their study with methods originating from the geometric theory of dynamical systems. We briefly summarize certain results of numerical analysis which we carried out when the scalar manifold of the model is a hyperbolic surface of the finite or infinite area.

This study presents a novel cylindrical vane pump based on the traditional working principle. The efficiency of the cylindrical vane pump was verified by experimental validation and numerical analysis. Numerical analysis, such as kinematics analysis, was performed in Pro/Mechanism and unsteady flow-field analysis was performed using ANSYS FLUENT. The stator surface equations were derived using the geometric theory of the applied spatial triangulation function. A three-dimensional model of the cylindrical vane pump was established with the help of MATLAB and Pro/E. The kinematic analysis helped in developing kinematic equations for cylindrical vane pumps and proved the effectiveness of the structural design. The maximum inaccuracy error of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was 5.7% compared with the experimental results, and the CFD results show that the structure of the pump was reasonable. An experimental test bench was developed, and the results were in excellent agreement with the numerical results of CFD. The experimental results show that the cylindrical vane pump satisfied the three-element design of a positive-displacement pump and the trend of changes in efficiency was the same for all types of efficiency under different operating conditions. Furthermore, the volumetric efficiency presented a nonlinear positive correlation with increased rotational velocity, the mechanical efficiency showed a nonlinear negative correlation, and the total efficiency first increased and then decreased. When the rotational velocity was 1.33[Formula: see text] and the discharge pressure was 0.68[Formula: see text], the total efficiency reached its maximum value.

An embedding of a metric graph $(G,d)$ on a closed hyperbolic surface is essential if each complementary region has a negative Euler characteristic. We show, by construction, that given any metric graph, its metric can be rescaled so that it admits an essential and isometric embedding on a closed hyperbolic surface. The essential genus $g_{e}(G)$ of $(G,d)$ is the lowest genus of a surface on which such an embedding is possible. We establish a formula to compute $g_{e}(G)$ and show that, for every integer $g\geq g_{e}(G)$ , there is an embedding of $(G,d)$ (possibly after a rescaling of $d$ ) on a surface of genus $g$ . Next, we study minimal embeddings where each complementary region has Euler characteristic $-1$ . The maximum essential genus $g_{e}^{\max }(G)$ of $(G,d)$ is the largest genus of a surface on which the graph is minimally embedded. We describe a method for an essential embedding of $(G,d)$ , where $g_{e}(G)$ and $g_{e}^{\max }(G)$ are realised.

Given a hyperbolic surface, the set of all closed geodesics whose length is minimal forms a graph on the surface, in fact a so-called fat graph, which we call the systolic graph. We study which fat graphs are systolic graphs for some surface (we call these admissible).There is a natural necessary condition on such graphs, which we call combinatorial admissibility. Our first main result is that this condition is also sufficient.It follows that a sub-graph of an admissible graph is admissible. Our second major result is that there are infinitely many minimal non-admissible fat graphs (in contrast, for instance, to the classical result that there are only two minimal non-planar graphs).

AbstractOn the unit tangent bundle of a hyperbolic surface, we study the density of positive orbits $(h^s v)_{s\ge 0}$ under the horocyclic flow. More precisely, given a full orbit $(h^sv)_{s\in {\mathbb R}}$, we prove that under a weak assumption on the vector $v$, both half-orbits $(h^sv)_{s\ge 0}$ and $(h^s v)_{s\le 0}$ are simultaneously dense or not in the non-wandering set $\mathcal {E}$of the horocyclic flow. We give also a counterexample to this result when this assumption is not satisfied.

The numerical analysis of stochastic differential equations, currently undergoing rapid development, differs significantly from its deterministic counterpart due to the peculiarities of stochastic calculus. This article presents a brief, pedagogical introduction to the subject from the perspective of stochastic dynamical systems. The key tool is the stochastic Taylor expansion. Strong, pathwise approximations are distinguished from weak, functional approximations, and their role in stability with Lyapunov exponents and stiffness is discussed.
