We study the Dirac spectrum on compact Riemannian spin manifolds $M$ equipped with a metric connection $\nabla$ with skew torsion $T\in\Lambda^3M$ by means of twistor theory. An optimal lower bound for the first eigenvalue of the Dirac…
We obtain L2-series solutions of the nonrelativistic three-dimensional wave equation for a large class of non-central potentials that includes, as special cases, the Aharonov-Bohm, Hartmann, and magnetic monopole potentials. It also…
We propose a procedure for computing the direct scattering transform of the periodic sine-Gordon equation. This procedure, previously used within the periodic Korteweg-de Vries equation framework, is implemented for the case of the…
We consider the cubic-quintic nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation in space dimension up to three. The cubic nonlinearity is thereby focusing while the quintic one is defocusing, ensuring global well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in the…
Using the method of blow-up analysis, we obtain two sharp Trudinger-Moser inequalities on a compact Riemann surface with smooth boundary, as well as the existence of the corresponding extremals. This generalizes early results of Chang-Yang…
Radially symmetric shadow wave solutions to the system of multidimensional pressureless gas dynamics are introduced, which allow one to capture concentration of mass. The transformation to a one-dimensional system with source terms is…
In this paper we obtain the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation on Lorentzian manifolds $(X^\circ,g)$ which are de Sitter-like at infinity. Such manifolds are Lorentzian analogues of the so-called Riemannian…
In this paper, we show the orbital stability of solitons arising in the cubic derivative nonlinear Schrodinger equations. We consider the zero mass case that is not covered by earlier works [8, 3]. As this case enjoys L^2 scaling…
In this paper we describe the integral transform that allows to write solutions of one partial differential equation via solution of another one. This transform was suggested by the author in the case when the last equation is a wave…
We consider a quiver $Q$ of ADE type and use cluster combinatorics to define two complex manifolds $\mathcal S$ and $\mathcal L$. The space $\mathcal S$ can be identified with a quotient of the space of stability conditions on the CY$_3$…
Free internal waves in polytropic atmospheres are studied (polytropic atmosphere is such one that the temperature of gas linearly depends on altitude). We suppose gas to be ideal and incompressible. Also, we regard the atmosphere of…
We discuss the light-front zero-mode issue in the light-front quark model prediction of the twist-3 distribution amplitude of a pseudoscalar meson from the perspective of the vacuum fluctuation consistent with the chiral symmetry of QCD.
In previous work by two of the present authors, twistors were re-interpreted as 4-d spinors with a position dependence within the formalism of geometric (Clifford) algebra. Here we extend that approach and justify the nature of the position…
The Darboux--Dressing Transformations are applied to the Lax pair associated to the system of nonlinear equations describing the resonant interaction of three waves in 1+1 dimensions. We display explicit solutions featuring localized waves…
This thesis carries out a detailed investigation of the action for pure Yang- Mills theory which L. Mason formulated in twistor space. The rich structure of twistor space results in greater gauge freedom compared to the theory in ordinary…
We consider the Laplace operator in a thin three dimensional tube with a Robin type condition on its boundary and study, asymptotically, the spectrum of such operator as the diameter of the tube's cross section becomes infinitesimal. In…
Motivated by generalized geometry (\`a la Hitchin), we discuss the integrability conditions for four natural almost complex structures on the product bundle ${\mathcal Z}\times {\mathcal Z}\to M$, where ${\mathcal Z}$ is the twistor space…
We prove a general Levinson's theorem for Schr\"odinger operators in two dimensions with threshold obstructions at zero energy. Our results confirm and simplify earlier seminal results of Boll\'e, Gesztesy et al., while providing an…
A conformal metric on a 4-ball induces on the boundary 3-sphere a conformal metric and a trace-free second fundamental form. Conversely, such a data on the 3-sphere is the boundary of a unique selfdual conformal metric, defined in a…
We consider a singular Liouville equation on a compact surface, arising from the study of Chern-Simons vortices in a self dual regime. Using new improved versions of the Moser-Trudinger inequalities (whose main feature is to be scaling…
