We investigate a discrete version of the M\"obius energy, that is of geometric interest in its own right and is defined on equilateral polygons with $n$ segments. We show that the $\Gamma$-limit regarding $L^{q}$ or $W^{1,q}$ convergence,…

We investigate the behaviour of heavy $QQ$- and $QQQ$-free energies in SU(3) pure gauge theory at finite temperature. After stating some general properties of the free energies, we discuss the $QQ$-antitriplet and -sextet channels as well…

We analyze qubit-qubit entanglement from an energetic perspective and reveal an energetic trade-off between quantum coherence and entanglement. We decompose each qubit internal energy into a coherent and an incoherent component. The qubits'…

We describe a simple quantum dot that consists of two crossed two-dimensional troughs. As such there is no potential well; nonetheless, this geometry gives rise to a bound state, centred on the point at which these troughs cross one…

Based on an exact functional form derived for the three-point vertex function $\Gamma$, we propose a self-consistent calculation scheme for the electron self-energy with $\Gamma$ always satisfying the Ward identity. This scheme is basically…

We study the damped wave equation with a damping coefficient which is possibly singular and unbounded at infinity. In general, zero belongs to the spectrum of the corresponding generator, which prevents a uniform (exponential) decay for the…
