Harmonic analysis is a tool to infer cosmic topology from the measured astrophysical cosmic microwave background CMB radiation. For overall positive curvature, Platonic spherical manifolds are candidates for this analysis. We combine the…
This short paper is concerned with the use of spherical t-designs as optimal designs for the spherical harmonic regression model in three dimensions over a range of specified criteria. The nature of the designs is explored and their…
This book intends to give the main definitions and theorems in mathematics which could be useful for workers in theoretical physics. It gives an extensive and precise coverage of the subjects which are addressed, in a consistent and…
Solutions to the stochastic wave equation on the unit sphere are approximated by spectral methods. Strong, weak, and almost sure convergence rates for the proposed numerical schemes are provided and shown to depend only on the smoothness of…
This is the introductive paper to the volume "Symmetries in Physics: Philosophical Reflections", Cambridge University Press, 2003. We begin with a brief description of the historical roots and emergence of the concept of symmetry that is at…

In this article, we present a space-frequency theory for spherical harmonics based on the spectral decomposition of a particular space-frequency operator. The presented theory is closely linked to the theory of ultraspherical polynomials on…
Polyharmonic, or $r$-harmonic, maps are a natural generalization of harmonic maps whose study was proposed by Eells-Lemaire in 1983. The main aim of this paper is to construct new examples of proper $r$-harmonic immersions into spheres. In…

The paper contains a survey of the results obtained during the last ten years in the theory of elliptic boundary problems in H\"ormander function spaces, developed by the authors, and other related results of modern analysis. The basics of…
This book has seven chapters. In chapter one we give the basics needed to make this book a self contained one. Chapter two introduces the notion of interval semigroups and interval semifields and are algebraically analysed. Chapter three…
Comments are made on some recently published papers on matter collineations of plane symmetric, cylindrically symmetric and spherically symmetric spacetimes.
In this short note we propose a new method for construction new nice arrangement on the sphere $S^d$ using the spaces of spherical harmonic.
We give a simple proof of a recent result by Kleinbock and Merrill concerning intrinsic approximations on sphere, in the simplest case of two-dimensional sphere in $\mathbb{R}^3$.
