We investigate vacuum decays in the early Universe in the presence of curvature perturbations. For sufficiently large perturbations associated with over-densities, we find that the bounce solution develops an oscillating middle stage near…
In this paper, vacuum and singularity formation are considered for compressible Euler equations with time-dependent damping. For $1<\gamma\leq 3$, by constructing some new control functions ingeniously, we obtain the lower bounds estimates…
Within the many different models that appeared with the use of cold atoms to design BECs the bubble trap shaped potential has been of great interest. For the anisotropic bubble trap physics in the thin-shell limit the relationship between…
In contrast with the well-known methods of matching asymptotics and multiscale (or compound) asymptotics, the " functional analytic approach " of Lanza de Cristoforis (Analysis 28, 2008) allows to prove convergence of expansions around…
We study minimal graphic functions on complete Riemannian manifolds $\Si$ with non-negative Ricci curvature, Euclidean volume growth and quadratic curvature decay. We derive global bounds for the gradients for minimal graphic functions of…
The Euclidean bounce for vacuum decay enjoys an $O(4)$ symmetry that is lost in the presence of impurities than can catalyze the decay. We present a formulation for the calculation of the tunneling decay action, that is explicitly positive…
Piecewise Euclidean structures (identified solid Euclidean polyhedra) on topological 3-dimensional manifolds and pseudo-manifolds are constructed so that they admit pseudo-foliations, a generalized type of foliation. The construction of…
We consider a flat Universe filled with a vacuum energy coupled to matter and radiation by respectively positive coupling functions $Q_m$ and $Q_r$. We require that these functions be such as Universe exits from inflation to go to a…

For smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains in $mathbb{C}^{2}$, we provide geometric conditions on (the points of infinite type in) the boundary which imply compactness of the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann operator. It is noteworthy that the proof…
We investigate the non-perturbative stability of supersymmetric compactifications with respect to decay via a bubble of nothing. We show examples where this kind of instability is not prohibited by the spin structure, i.e., periodicity of…
The physical properties of a classical many-particle system with interactions given by a repulsive Gaussian pair potential are extended to arbitrarily high Euclidean dimensions. The goals of this paper are to characterize the behavior of…
We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in a domain two three-dimensional parallel layers having common boundary and coupled by a window. The window produces the bound states below the essential spectrum; we obtain two-sided estimates for them.…
We analyze the momentum-space representations of the Lorentzian correlators of scalar primary operators in an arbitrary 2D CFT. These correlators characterize the effective dynamics of open quantum systems. We derive the results from the…
Metastable states decay at zero temperature through quantum tunneling at an exponentially small rate, which depends on the Coleman-de Luccia instanton, also known as bounce. In some theories, the bounce may not exist or its on-shell action…
This article suggests the definition of "Lorentzian space" weakening the notion of Lorentzian length spaces just as much that it allows for a functor from the category of strongly causal Lorentzian manifolds to the corresponding category of…
We investigate the next Trudinger-Moser critical equations, \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta u=\lambda ue^{u^2+\alpha|u|^\beta}&\text{ in }B,\\ u=0&\text{ on }\partial B, \end{cases} \] where $\alpha>0$, $(\lambda,\beta)\in(0,\infty)\times(0,2)$…
For the prescribed scalar curvature equation on $S^n$ ($n \ge 6$), we consider the situation where the number of bubbles tends to infinity in the Lyapunov-Schmidt (finite dimension) reduction method. In an outstanding paper by Wei and Yan,…
A family of cosmological solutions with $(n+1)$ Ricci-flat spaces in the theory with several scalar fields and multiple exponential potential is obtained when coupling vectors in exponents obey certain relations. Two subclasses of solutions…
This paper is devoted to the study of degenerate critical elliptic equations of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type. By means of blow-up analysis techniques, we prove an a-priori estimate in a weighted space of continuous functions. From this…
