✦ Synopsis

The slow dynamical evolution of solar atmospheric magnetic field structures via the equilibrium equation has been the subject of a number of investigations. In many of these studies the quasi-static evolution of the field and the associated plasma has been investigated for a single arcade structure. In this paper we present results for multiple arcade structures. For multiple arcades we do not find bifurcations and the consequent multiple solutions as the field is evolved through a sequence of equilibrium states, in contrast to the findings for single arcade. Further we show that particular polarity arrangements within a pair of arcade structures lead to quite different topologies of the field as it is evolved. When new flux emerges from the photospheric boundary under a pre-existing magnetic arcade the results suggest that such a mechanism will initiate coronal mass ejection.

## Abstract We introduce a new definition of stability, ε‐stability, that implies local minimality and is robust enough for passing from discrete‐time to continuous‐time quasi‐static evolutions, even with very irregular energies. We use this to give the first existence result for quasi‐static crack

## Abstract This paper investigates the mathematical well‐posedness of the variational model of quasi‐static growth for a brittle crack proposed by Francfort and Marigo in [15]. The starting point is a time discretized version of that evolution which results in a sequence of minimization problems o

We consider in the half-space (z >0) a simple-topology force-free magnetic field B embedded in a highly conducting plasma (resistivity a) and its quasi-static evolution driven by motions imposed to the feet of its lines on the boundary {z = 0). We first study the case when B is an x-invariant arcad
