The D'Angelo finite type is shown to be equivalent to the Kohn finite ideal type on smooth, pseudoconvex domains in complex n space. This is known as the Kohn Conjecture. The argument uses Catlin's notion of a boundary system as well as…
Notions of finite type play an important role in several complex variables. The most standard notion is D'Angelo type, which measures the order of contact of holomorphic curves with the boundary of a domain in ${\mathbb C}^n$. For the $\bar…
We establish a new sharp estimate of the order of vanishing of solutions to parabolic equations with variable coefficients. For real-analytic leading coefficients, we prove a localised estimate of the nodal set, at a given time-level, that…
In this paper, we establish two types of upper bounds on the vanishing order of Jacobi forms at infinity. The first type is for classical Jacobi forms, which is optimal in a certain sense. The second type is for Jacobi forms of lattice…
Based on a variant of the frequency function approach of Almgren, we establish an optimal upper bound on the vanishing order of solutions to variable coefficient Schr\"odinger equations at a portion of the boundary of a $C^{1,Dini}$ domain.…
In 1979 J.J. Kohn gave an indirect argument via the Diederich-Forn\ae ss Theorem showing that finite D'Angelo type implies termination of the Kohn algorithm for a pseudoconvex domain with real-analytic boundary. We give here a direct…
In this paper we study the local behavior of a solution to second order elliptic operators with sharp singular coefficients in lower order terms. One of the main results is the bound on the vanishing order of the solution, which is a…
We propose a new class of geometric invariants called jet vanishing orders, and use them to establish a new selection algorithm in the Kohn's construction of subelliptic multipliers for special domains in dimension $3$, inspired by the work…
Let $I_0$ and $K_0$ be modified Bessel functions of the zeroth order. We use Vanhove's differential operators for Feynman integrals to derive upper bounds for dimensions of the $\mathbb Q$-vector space spanned by certain sequences of Bessel…
We study quantitative unique continuation at infinity for Dirac equations with bounded matrix-valued potentials. For the massless Dirac operator $\mathcal{D}_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we establish a Landis-type estimate showing that the…
In [6], D'Angelo introduced the notion of finite type for points $p$ of a real hypersurface $M$ of $\mathbb C^n$ by defining the order of contact $\Delta_q(M,p)$ of complex analytic $q$-dimensional varieties with $M$ at $p$. Later, Catlin…
We obtain sharp maximal vanishing order at a given time level for solutions to parabolic equations with a $C{^1}$ potential $V$. Our main result Theorem 1.1 is a parabolic generalization of a well known result of Donnelly-Fefferman and…
The Wigner bound, setting an upper limit on the scattering effective range, is examined at different orders of contact effective field theory. Using cutoff regulator we show that the bound loosens when higher orders of the theory are…
We investigate the quantitative unique continuation of solutions to higher order elliptic equations with singular coefficients. Quantitative unique continuation described by the vanishing order is a quantitative form of strong unique…
We consider a boundary value problem in a bounded domain involving a degenerate operator of the form $$L(u)=-\textrm{div} (a(x)\nabla u)$$ and a suitable nonlinearity $f$. The function $a$ vanishes on smooth 1-codimensional submanifolds of…
A high-order finite element method is proposed to solve the nonlinear convection-diffusion equation on a time-varying domain whose boundary is implicitly driven by the solution of the equation. The method is semi-implicit in the sense that…

In 1936, Weisskopf showed that for vanishing electric or magnetic fields the strong-field behavior of the one loop Euler-Heisenberg effective Lagrangian of quantum electro dynamics (QED) is logarithmic. Here we generalize this result for…
We introduce a new geometrical invariant of CR manifolds of hypersurface type, which we dub the "Levi core" of the manifold. When the manifold is the boundary of a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain, we show how the Levi core is related to…
