Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Spectral properties of an invariant functional, denoted by H, for the linear stability equation associated with the modon, or solitary drift vortex, solutions of the quasi‐geostrophic equivalent barotropic potential vorticity, or Charney–Hasegawa–Mima (CHM), equation are investigated. It is shown that H, which is the only known quadratic invariant in modon stability theory, is identical in form to the second variation of a “Benjamin‐like” variational principle for solitary vortices. However, such a principle does not exist for the modon. The discrete spectrum of the “form operator” in H contains two simple negative eigenvalues and the simple zero eigenvalue. For the leftward‐traveling solution there are only a finite number of positive eigenvalues. For the rightward‐traveling solution, there are a countable infinity of positive eigenvalues. A sharp lower bound on the spectrum, for both the rightward‐ and leftward‐traveling solutions, and a sharp upper bound for the leftward traveling solution, is determined. For the leftward‐traveling solutions, the eigenfunctions span a finite‐dimensional vector space and are orthogonal with respect to an inner product which is valid for all of L2. For the rightward‐traveling solutions, the eigenfunctions span an infinite‐dimensional Hilbert space, but are orthogonal with respect to an inner product, which is not valid for all of L2.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
