Subharmonic phase-lock criteria for a class of weakly non-linear high-order oscillators
1985
Subharmonic frequency entrainment of high-order weakly non-linear oscillators is investigated. For the class of circuits considered, equations are first derived which provide the first approximation values for the amplitudes and phases of the two main spectral components of the steady-state waveform. Necessary and sufficient stability criteria are then derived in explicit from. The example worked out (a negative conductance double-tuned oscillator) shows the efficiency and ease of use of the proposed method.
The Radó–Kneser–Choquet theorem for $p$-harmonic mappings between Riemannian surfaces
2020
In the planar setting the Rad\'o-Kneser-Choquet theorem states that a harmonic map from the unit disk onto a Jordan domain bounded by a convex curve is a diffeomorphism provided that the boundary mapping is a homeomorphism. We prove the injectivity criterion of Rad\'o-Kneser-Choquet for $p$-harmonic mappings between Riemannian surfaces. In our proof of the injecticity criterion we approximate the $p$-harmonic map with auxiliary mappings that solve uniformly elliptic systems. We prove that each auxiliary mapping has a positive Jacobian by a homotopy argument. We keep the maps injective all the way through the homotopy with the help of the minimum principle for a certain subharmonic expressio…
