The use of Hausdorff measures and dimension in the theory of Diophantine approximation dates back to the 1920s with the theorems of Jarnik and Besicovitch regarding well-approximable and badly-approximable points. In this paper we consider…

The DFT-$\frac{1}{2}$ method is a band gap correction with GW precision at a DFT computational cost. The method was also extended to correct the gap between defect levels, allowing for the calculation of optical transitions. However, this…

A perturbation decaying to 0 at infinity and not too irregular at 0 introduces at most a discrete set of eigenvalues into the spectral gaps of a one-dimensional Dirac operator on the half-line. We show that the number of these eigenvalues…
