This note is purely expository. In the course of the Kolmogorov-Arnold solution of Hilbert's 13th problem on superpositions there appeared the notion of basic embedding. A subset K of R^2 is basic if for each continuous function f:K->R…
Motivated by applications to acoustic imaging, the present work establishes a framework to analyze scattering for the one-dimensional wave, Helmholtz, Schr\"odinger and Riccati equations that allows for coefficients which are more singular…
We present an algorithm for growing the denominator $r$ polygons containing a fixed number of lattice points and enumerate such polygons containing few lattice points for small $r$. We describe the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational…
The explicit solvability of quantum superintegrable systems is due to symmetry, but the symmetry is often "hidden". The symmetry generators of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions close under commutation to define quadratic…
We prove the analogue of the Martingale Convergence Theorem for polynomial spline sequences. Given a natural number $k $ and a sequence $(t_i)$ of knots in $[0,1]$ with multiplicity $\le k-1$, we let $P_n $ be the orthogonal projection onto…
We derive exponential bounds on probabilities of large deviations for "light tail" martingales taking values in finite-dimensional normed spaces. Our primary emphasis is on the case where the bounds are dimension-independent or nearly so.…
We discuss existence and stability of Riesz bases of exponential type of L^2(T) for special domains T called trapezoids. We construct exponential bases on L^2(T) when T is a finite union of rectangles with the same height. We also…
We consider a rational six vertex model on a rectangular lattice with boundary conditions that generalize the usual domain wall type. We find that the partition function of the inhomogeneous version of this model is given by a modified…
We give an algorithm for finding conformal mappings onto the upper half-plane and conformal modules of some types of polygons. The polygons are obtained by stretching along the real axis polyominoes i.e., polygons which are connected unions…
For a finite real reflection group $W$ with Coxeter element $\gamma$ we give a uniform proof that the closed interval, $[I, \gamma]$ forms a lattice in the partial order on $W$ induced by reflection length. The proof involves the…
We prove that not every harmonic map from $S^{2}$ to $S^{2}$ can arise as a limit of Ginzburg--Landau critical points. More precisely, we show that the only degree-one harmonic maps that can be approximated in this way are rotations. This…
Two planar embedded circle patterns with the same combinatorics and the same intersection angles can be considered to define a discrete conformal map. We show that two locally finite circle patterns covering the unit disc are related by a…
In our recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 230502 (2009)] we showed that the partition function of all classical spin models, including all discrete standard statistical models and all Abelian discrete lattice gauge theories (LGTs), can be…
Following G. Gr\"atzer and E. Knapp (2007), a slim semimodular lattice, SPS lattice for short, is a finite planar semimodular lattice having no $M_3$ as a sublattice. An SPS lattice is a slim rectangular lattice if it has exactly two doubly…
These notes outline recent developments in classical minimal surface theory that are essential in classifying the properly embedded minimal planar domains M in R^3 with infinite topology (equivalently, with an infinite number of ends). This…
A stationary rotating surface is a compact surface in Euclidean space whose mean curvature $H$ at each point $x$ satisfies $2H(x)=a r^2+b$, where $r$ is the distance from $x$ to a fixed straight-line $L$, and $a$ and $b$ are constants.…
In this work, we study the space of complete embedded rotationally symmetric self-shrinking hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. First, using comparison geometry in the context of metric geometry, we derive explicit upper bounds for the…
Let A be a subset of positive relative upper density of P^d, the d-tuples of primes. We prove that A contains an affine copy of any finite set of lattice points E, as long as E is in general position in the sense that it has at most one…
In this article, I will prove a recurrence theorem which says that any $H^s(\mathbb{T}^2)$ (s>2) solution to the 2D Euler equation returns repeatedly to an arbitrarily small $H^0(\mathbb{T}^2)$ neighborhood.
We present a novel analysis of a Radon transform, $R$, which maps an $L^2$ function of compact support to its integrals over smooth surfaces of revolution with centers on an embedded hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Using microlocal…
