We generalize a theorem of Bellow and Calder\'on concerning the a.e. convergence of the convolution powers $\ds \mu^nf(x)=\sum_{k}\mu^n(k)f(T^k x)$ where $T$ is a measure preserving transformation of a probability space and $\mu$ is a…
We consider simply connected bodies or regions of finite extent in space or space-time and write conservation laws associated with the equations in Parts I-IV. We review earlier work where, for elliptic equations,the boundary value problem…
This article aims at discussing the cosmological constant problem at a pedagogical but fully technical level. We review how the vacuum energy can be regularized in flat and curved space-time and how it can be understood in terms of Feynman…

A correlation function of two particles with small relative velocities obeys a sum rule - the momentum integral of the function is determined due to the completeness of quantum states of the particles. The original sum rule derived in 1995…
We derive analytic solutions for the potential and field in a one-dimensional system of masses or charges with periodic boundary conditions, in other words Ewald sums for one dimension. We also provide a set of tools for exploring the…

In this paper we study quadratic forms which are universal when restricted to almost prime inputs, establishing finiteness theorems akin to the Conway--Schneeberger 15 theorem.
In the present work we investigate a new statistical ensemble, which seems logical to be entitled the open one, for the case of a one-component system of ordinary particles. Its peculiarity is in complementing the consideration of a system…

It has been shown, in the case of meson photoproduction, that the power-law falloff of these reactions can be described by lowest order (real) sum rules, at moderate momentum transfer. The phases of these processes, in this regime, are…
