A large class of variational equations for geometric objects is studied. The results imply conformal monotonicity and Liouville theorems for steady, polytropic, ideal flow, and the regularity of weak solutions to generalized Yang-Mills and…
Solutions to conservation laws satisfy the monotonicity property: the number of local extrema is a non-increasing function of time, and local maximum/minimum values decrease/increase monotonically in time. This paper investigates this…
Proving complexity lower bounds remains a challenging task: we only know how to prove conditional uniform lower bounds and nonuniform lower bounds in restricted circuit models. Williams (STOC 2010) showed how to derive nonuniform lower…

We revisit basics of classical Sturm-Liouville theory and, as an application, recover Bochner's classification of second order ODEs with polynomial coefficients and polynomial solutions by a new argument. We also outline how a wider class…
In a seminal paper Ginzburg and Adler analyzed the bounce-back boundary conditions for the lattice Boltzmann scheme and showed that it could be made exact to second order for the Poiseuille flow if some expressions depending upon the…
This paper is devoted to studying the first-order variational analysis of non-convex and non-differentiable functions that may not be subdifferentially regular. To achieve this goal, we entirely rely on two concepts of directional…
It is well known that second order homogeneous linear ordinary differential equations with slowly varying coefficients admit slowly varying phase functions. This observation underlies the Liouville-Green method and many other techniques for…
The approximate degree of a Boolean function $f(x_{1},x_{2},\ldots,x_{n})$ is the minimum degree of a real polynomial that approximates $f$ pointwise within $1/3$. Upper bounds on approximate degree have a variety of applications in…
The aim of my thesis is to discuss, develop and apply the newest developments of this fascinating theory connected to modern harmonic analysis. In particular, we investigate some strong convergence result of partial sums of Vilenkin-Fourier…
We study existence and uniqueness of solutions to a class of nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations, in bounded domains. We show that there exists a unique solution which satisfies possibly inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. To…
The presented analysis determines several new bounds on the roots of the equation $a_n x^n + a_{n-1} x^{n-1} + \cdots + a_0 = 0$ (with $a_n > 0$). All proposed new bounds are lower than the Cauchy bound max$\{1, \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} |a_j/a_n|…

This paper is concerned with the initial-boundary value problem for a nonlinear hyperbolic system of conservation laws. We study the boundary layers that may arise in approximations of entropy discontinuous solutions. We consider both the…

We study the second order elliptic equations of non-divergence form in a planar domain with complicated geometry. In this case the domain winds around a fixed circle infinitely many times and converges to it when the rotating angle goes to…
We address composite optimization problems, which consist in minimizing the sum of a smooth and a merely lower semicontinuous function, without any convexity assumptions. Numerical solutions of these problems can be obtained by proximal…
