An error in the gravitational force that the source of gravity induces on itself (a self-force error) violates both the conservation of linear momentum and the conservation of energy. If such errors are present in a self-gravitating system…

In this paper, we deal with the inverse source problem of determining a source in a time fractional diffusion equation where data are given at a fixed time. This problem is ill-posed, i.e., the solution does not depend continuously on the…
A new parametrization of the multi-channel S-matrix is used to fit scattering data and then to locate the resonances as its poles. The S-matrix is written in terms of the corresponding "in" and "out" Jost matrices which are expanded in the…
Self-force methods can be applied in calculations of the scatter angle in two-body hyperbolic encounters, working order by order in the mass ratio (assumed small) but with no recourse to a weak-field approximation. This, in turn, can inform…
A combination of the variable-constant and complex coordinate rotation methods is used to solve the two-body Schr\"odinger equation. The latter is replaced by a system of linear first-order differential equations, which enables one to…
In certain models of conformal gravity, the propagation of gravitational waves is governed by a fourth order scalar partial differential equation. We study the initial value problem for a generalization of this equation, and derive a…
