By introducing some special bi-orthogonal polynomials, we derive the so-called discrete hungry quotient-difference (dhQD) algorithm and a system related to the QD-type discrete hungry LotkaVolterra (QD-type dhLV) system, together with their Lax pairs. These two known equations can be regarded as extensions of the QD algorithm. When this idea is applied to a higher analogue of the discrete-time Toda (HADT) equation and the quotientquotient-difference (QQD) scheme proposed by Spicer, Nijhoff and van der Kamp, two extended systems are constructed. We call these systems the hungry forms of the higher analogue discrete-time Toda (hHADT) equation and the quotient-quotient-difference (hQQD) scheme, respectively. In addition, the corresponding Lax pairs are provided.

We study mixing properties of commutative groups of automorphisms acting on compact nilmanifolds. Assuming that every non-trivial element acts ergodically, we prove that such actions are mixing of all orders. We further show exponential 2-mixing and 3-mixing. As an application we prove smooth cocycle rigidity for higher-rank abelian groups of nilmanifold automorphisms.

In this paper, we prove that there exist noncollision singularites in a planar four-body problem, thus settles the Painleve conjecture.

This paper presents a 2×2 dynamical system to study the cyclic appearance and disappearance of the gas phase in a two-component (CO2, H2O), two phase (gas, liquid) flow in a single pore. Depending on injection rate, linearization of the dynamical system around equilibrium shows that the gas phase can exhibit two behaviors, either cyclically vanishing and appearing, or approaching a steady-state volume value. Numerical simulations were also run on the fully non-linear dynamical system to verify the results of the linearized model.
