    Active superelasticity in three-dimensional epithelia of controlled shape 

    Latorre Ibars, Ernest (Fecha de defensa: 2021-02-19)

    Fundamental processes in development and physiology are determined by the three-dimensional architecture of epithelial sheets. How these sheets deform and fold into complex structures has remained unclear, however, because ...

    New geometrical and dynamical techniques for problems in celestial mechanics 

    Braddell, Róisín (Fecha de defensa: 2021-02-17)

    In this thesis, we study the application of symplectic geometry, regular and singular, to symplectic dynamical systems.We start with a motivating case: the relation between symplectic foliations and global transverse ...

    bm-Symplectic manifolds: symmetries, classification and stability 

    Planas Bahí, Arnau (Fecha de defensa: 2020-09-30)

    This thesis explores classification and perturbation problems for group actions on a class of Poisson manifolds called $b^m$-Poisson manifolds. $b^m$-Poisson manifolds are manifolds which are symplectic away from a ...
