We obtain new Faber-Krahn-type inequalities for certain perturbations of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded domain. First, we establish a two- and three-dimensional Faber-Krahn inequality for the Schr\"odinger operator with point…
Motivated by the long-time transport properties of quantum waves in weakly disordered media, the present work puts random Schr\"odinger operators into a new spectral perspective. Based on a stationary random version of a Floquet type…
In this article we provide a Hamilton-Jacobi formalism in locally conformally symplectic manifolds. Our interest in the Hamilton-Jacobi theory comes from the suitability of this theory as an integration method for dynamical systems, whilst…
Here we investigate the two-parameter high-frequency localization for the eigenfunctions of a Schr\"{o}dinger operator with a singular inverse square potential in high-dimensional balls and spherical shells as the azimuthal quantum number…
Considering SL(2,R) skew-product maps over circle rotations, we prove that a renormalization transformation associated with the golden mean alpha has a nontrivial periodic orbit of length 3. We also present some numerical results, including…
This paper considers the relativistic motion of charged particles coupled with electromagnetic fields in the higher-order theory proposed by Bopp, Land\'e--Thomas, and Podolsky. We rigorously derive a world-line integral expression for the…
The ground-state electron density of a polaron bound to a Coulomb potential in a homogeneous magnetic field--the transverse coordinates integrated out--converges pointwise and weakly in the strong magnetic field limit to the square of a…
This work extracts, by means of an exact analysis, the singular behaviour of the dynamical response functions -- the Fourier transforms of dynamical two-point functions -- in the vicinity of the various excitation thresholds in the massless…
In the 1980s, Viennot developed a combinatorial approach to studying mixed moments of orthogonal polynomials using Motzkin paths. Recently, an alternative combinatorial model for these mixed moments based on lecture hall paths was…
We particularise the construction of generalised Kac-Moody algebras associated to compact real manifolds to the case of the two-torus $\mathbb T_2$ and the two-sphere ${\mathbb S}^2$. It is shown that these algebras, as well as a Virasoro…
We give a description of the Halln\"as--Ruijsenaars eigenfunctions of the 2-particle hyperbolic Ruijsenaars system as matrix coefficients for the order 4 element $S\in SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ acting on the Hilbert space of $GL(2)$ quantum…
We study solutions of the reflection equation related to the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\widehat{sl_n})$. First, we explain how to construct a family of stochastic integrable vertex models with fixed boundary conditions. Then, we construct…
One-dimensional 3-body Wolfes model with 2- and 3-body interactions also known as $G_2/I_6$-rational integrable model of the Hamiltonian reduction is exactly-solvable and superintegrable. Its Hamiltonian $H$ and two integrals ${\cal I}_{1},…
The aim of this paper is to present new sparsity results about the so-called Lieb functional, which is a key quantity in Density Functional Theory for electronic structure calculations of molecules. The Lieb functional was actually shown by…
This work develops a rigorous setting allowing one to prove several features related to the behaviour of the Heisenberg-Ising (or XXZ) spin-$1/2$ chain at finite temperature $T$. Within the quantum inverse scattering method the physically…
We show future global non-linear stability of surface symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system with a positive cosmological constant. Estimates of higher derivatives of the metric and the matter terms are obtained using an…
We consider a non-self-adjoint third order operator $(y''+py)'+py'+qy$ with 1-periodic coefficients $p,q$. This operator is the L-operator in the Lax pair for the good Boussinesq equation on the circle. In 1981, McKean introduced a…
The method of variational completion allows one to transform an (in principle, arbitrary) system of partial differential equations -- based on an intuitive ``educated guess'' -- into the Euler-Lagrange one attached to a Lagrangian, by…
We consider the problem of calculation of correlation functions in the six-vertex model with domain wall boundary conditions. To this aim, we formulate the model as a scalar product of off-shell Bethe states, and, by applying the quantum…
We study simple nonequilibrium distributions describing a classical gas of particles interacting via a pair potential ${\phi}(x/{\epsilon})$, in the Boltzmann-Grad scaling ${\epsilon} \rightarrow 0$. We establish bounds for truncated…
