Certain quasi-exactly solvable systems exhibit an energy reflection property that relates the energy levels of a potential or of a pair of potentials. We investigate two sister potentials and show the existence of this energy reflection…
We give an overview of some applications of a general variational principle.
It is well-known that the square principle $\square_\lambda$ entails the existence of a non-reflecting stationary subset of $\lambda^+$, whereas the weak square principle $\square^*_\lambda$ does not. Here we show that if…
In this work, we construct several sequences of metrics on sphere with different limiting behaviors. By combining with the work of Deruelle, we use it and the localized maximum principle to construct various examples of expanding gradient…
We address the problem of weak approximation for general cubic hypersurfaces defined over number fields, with arbitrary singular locus. In particular, weak approximation is established for the smooth locus of projective, geometrically…
We investigate the properties of a modulus of a foliation on a Riemannian manifold. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an extremal function and state some of its properties. We obtain the integral formula…
We study the p-fine topology on complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure supporting a p-Poincare inequality, 1 < p< oo. We establish a weak Cartan property, which yields characterizations of the p-thinness and the p-fine…
In this paper, we develop the theory of Perelman's $W$-functional on manifolds with isolated conical singularities. In particular, we show that the infimum of $W$-functional over a certain weighted Sobolev space on manifolds with isolated…
We prove rigidity theorems for shrinking gradient Ricci solitons supporting the Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principle with the sharp constant in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In addtion, we partially give analogous rigidity results of the…
We classify ${\cal N}=1$ gauge theories with simple gauge groups in four dimensions which possess a conformal manifold passing through weak coupling. A very rich variety of models is found once one allows for arbitrary representations under…
We study how regularity along a submanifold of a differential or microdifferential system can propagate from a family of submanifolds to another. The first result is that a microdifferential system regular along a lagrangian foliation is…
We say that a CR singular submanifold $M$ has a removable CR singularity if the CR structure at the CR points of $M$ extends through the singularity as an abstract CR structure on $M$. We study such real-analytic submanifolds, in which case…
Most studies for postselected weak measurement in optomechanical system focus on using a single photon as a measured system. However, we find that using weak coherent light instead of a single photon can also amplify the mirror's position…
Let X be a smooth projective Berkovich space over a complete discrete valuation field K of residue characteristic zero, endowed with an ample line bundle L. We introduce a general notion of (possibly singular) semipositive (or…
We study the validity of the comparison and maximum principles, and their relation with principal eigenvalues, for a class of degenerate nonlinear operators that are extremal among operators with one dimensional fractional diffusion.
We use type I string models with supersymmetry broken by compactification (\`a la Scherk-Schwarz) in order to test the weak gravity conjecture in the presence of runaway potentials in a perturbative string theory setting. For a finite value…
We establish a boundary maximum principle for free boundary minimal submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold with boundary, in any dimension and codimension. Our result holds more generally in the context of varifolds.
We derive new positivity bounds for scattering amplitudes in theories with a massless graviton in the spectrum in four spacetime dimensions, of relevance for the weak gravity conjecture and modified gravity theories. The bounds imply that…
We constrain the spectrum of $\mathcal{N}=(1, 1)$ and $\mathcal{N}=(2, 2)$ superconformal field theories in two-dimensions by requiring the NS-NS sector partition function to be invariant under the $\Gamma_\theta$ congruence subgroup of the…
Using a coupling argument, we establish a general weak law of large numbers for functionals of binomial point processes in d-dimensional space, with a limit that depends explicitly on the (possibly non-uniform) density of the point process.…
