We address the question of exact controllability of the wave and Schrodinger equa\-tions perturbed by a singular inverse-square potential. Exact boundary controllability is proved in the range of subcritical coefficients ...

We analyze the behavior of a fragile material reinforced by a reticulated elastic unbreakable structure in the case of antiplane shear. The microscopic geometry of this material is described by means of two small parameters: ...
