The combinatorial characterization of generic rigidity for bar-joint frameworks in dimensions $d \ge 3$ has been a long-standing open problem in discrete geometry. While the two-dimensional case was resolved in 1927 by Pollaczek-Geiringer…

We explicitly solve a variational problem related to upper bounds on the optimal constants in the Cwikel--Lieb--Rozenblum (CLR) and Lieb--Thirring (LT) inequalities, which has recently been derived in [Invent. Math. 231 (2023), no.1,…

We consider the diffusive Hamilton-Jacobi equation $u_t - \Delta u = |\nabla u|^p$ in a bounded planar domain with zero Dirichlet boundary condition. It is known that, for $p>2$, the solutions to this problem can exhibit gradient blow-up…
