This is an extended version of the talk given by the author at the NATO Advanced Study Institute "Supersymmetry and Trace Formulae" (Isaac Newton Institute, Cambridge, UK, 8-19 Septemebr 1997). Contains the following sections: 1.…
We reply to the comment arXiv:quant-ph/0702060 on our letter arXiv:quant-ph/0603120 [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 100402 (2006)]
The authors of preprint arXiv:2009.00286 and paper Appl. Phys. Lett. 117, 130501 (2020), Y. Sivan and Y. Dubi, made several wrong and inconsistent comments on our papers [J. Phys. Chem. C 117, 16616-16631 (2013), ACS Photonics 4 (11),…
This paper is based on the author's talk at the Grothendieck conference at Chapman university on 26-05-2022. It is not a survey of anabelian geometry but rather exposes some of the personal views and experiences of the author with the…
The discrete Fourier transform has proven to be an essential tool in many geometric and combinatorial problems in vector spaces over finite fields. In general, sets with good uniform bounds for the Fourier transform appear more `random' and…
The joint work of the authors with Marcelo C\'ardenas and Joachim Weickert \cite{BCFW:2019_1} on edge-enhancing diffusion inpainting problems leads to the analysis of related denoising problems. Here, a surprisingly broad class of diffusion…
Calculations are presented detailing the gravitational lens diffraction due to the steep brightness gradient of the limb of a stellar source. The lensing case studied is the fold caustic crossing. The limb diffraction signal greatly exceeds…
This expository article is an introduction to Landau's problem of bounding the derivative, knowing bounds for the function and its second derivative, and some of its variants and generalizations. Connexions with convex and functional…
Comment on paper "Towards a bulk theory of flexoelectricity" by R.Resta [Phys.Rew. Lett. v. 105, 127601 (2010)]
In this paper we treat a non-Gaussian integral and give a fundamental formula in terms of discriminant. We also present some related problems. This is a comment paper to arXiv:0903.2595 [math-ph] by Morozov and Shakirov.
We consider a social choice setting in which agents and alternatives are represented by points in a metric space, and the cost of an agent for an alternative is the distance between the corresponding points in the space. The goal is to…
In the so-called bounded confidence model proposed by Deffuant et al, agents can influence each other's opinion provided that opinions are already sufficiently close enough. We here discuss the influence of possible social networks…
I comment on some theoretical work presented at QCD Moriond 2006.
The aim of this communication is to correct inaccurate statements presented in a Commentary on the paper titled: "Radiation forces and torque on a rigid elliptical cylinder in acoustical plane progressive and (quasi)standing waves with…
The concept of the diffraction limit put forth by Ernst Abbe and others has been an important guiding principle limiting our ability to tightly focus classical waves, such as light and sound, in the far field. In the past decade, numerous…
We are concerned with flow enhanced mixing of passive scalars in the presence of diffusion. Under the assumption that the velocity gradient is suitably integrable, we provide upper bounds on the exponential rates of enhanced dissipation.…
In this paper we study the integrals of fractional parts of given functions, and develop some new tools to understand the behaviour of prime differences. We demonstrate how simply some seemingly difficult conjectures related to prime…
Discussion of "Is Bayes Posterior just Quick and Dirty Confidence?" by D. A. S. Fraser [arXiv:1112.5582]
Notes for the author's MSRI lecture in January 2014.
It is shown that the evidence asserted in the Comment [arXiv:1205.6418] on the chemical composition data published by Carpinteri et al. [Strain 47 (Suppl. 2), 282 (2011)]-that the data "cannot be the result of independent measurements as…
