The qBounce experiment offers a new way of looking at gravitation based on quantum interference. An ultracold neutron is reflected in well-defined quantum states in the gravity potential of the Earth by a mirror, which allows to apply the…

Partial differential equations are central to describing many physical phenomena. In many applications these phenomena are observed through a sensor network, with the aim of inferring their underlying properties. Leveraging from certain…

We emphasize that a specific aspect of quantum gravity is the absence of a super-selection rule that prevents a linear superposition of different gravitational charges. As an immediate consequence, we obtain a tiny, but observable,…

We study the inverse eigenvector centrality problem on connected undirected graphs, namely, whether a given positive vector can be realized by assigning suitable edge weights. We provide a complete characterization in terms of stable sets…

Inverse problems arising in (geo)magnetism are typically ill-posed, in particular {they exhibit non-uniqueness}. Nevertheless, there exist nontrivial model spaces on which the problem is uniquely solvable. Our goal is here to describe such…

Applications in data science, shape analysis and object classification frequently require comparison of probability distributions defined on different ambient spaces. To accomplish this, one requires a notion of distance on a given class of…

A metric-field approach to gravitation is presented. It is based on an idea of dependency of space-time properties on measuring instruments. Some bimetric equations that realize this idea are considered. They were tested by the binary…

Solving inverse problems, where we find the input values that result in desired values of outputs, can be challenging. The solution process is often computationally expensive and it can be difficult to interpret the solution in…

Equivalence principles are a major part of modern relativity theory. Gravitational shifts can already be calculated within the time domain as motion shifts, and we examine the consequences of reversing this argument and describing motion…

Inverse spectral problems are studied for first-order integro-differential operators on a finite interval. These problems consist in recovering some components of the kernel from one or multiple spectra. Uniqueness theorems are proved for…

We consider the inverse problem of recovering a potential by measuring the response at a point to a source located at the same point and then varying the point on the surface of a sphere. This is a similar to the inverse back-scattering…

In this paper we address the problem of estimating the ratio $\frac{q}{p}$ where $p$ is a density function and $q$ is another density, or, more generally an arbitrary function. Knowing or approximating this ratio is needed in various…

We show that in complete agreement with classical mechanics, the dynamics of any quantum mechanical wave packet in a linear gravitational potential involves the gravitational and the inertial mass only as their ratio. In contrast, the…

Rotation curves of spiral galaxies are known with reasonable precision for a large number of galaxies with similar morphologies. The data implies that non-Keplerian fall--off is seen. This implies that (i) large amounts of dark matter must…
