The purpose of this short review, based in part on ideas developed in an article by the author and Fagundes [3], is to emphasize that the gauge-fixing condition, necessary to eliminate the spurious degrees of freedom of the electromagnetic…
It is shown here that symmetric hyperbolicity, which guarantees well-posedness, leads to a set of two inequalities for matrices whose elements are determined by a given theory. As a part of the calculation, carried out in a mostly-covariant…
In the quantization of gauge theories and quantum gravity, it is crucial to treat reference frames such as rods or clocks not as idealized external classical relata, but as internal quantum subsystems. In the Page-Wootters formalism, for…
The relation between the symplectic and Lorentz groups is explored to investigate entanglement features in a two-mode bipartite Gaussian state. We verify that the correlation matrix of arbitrary Gaussian states can be associated to a…
We define an EPR-like uncertainty by using the Duan et al.'s inequality which gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the separability of any two-mode Gaussian state. We show that for a given amount of entanglement, the uncertainty…
In this paper, we quantify voltage and current phasor-based measurement requirements for the unique estimation of the electric grid topology and admittance parameters. Our approach is underpinned by the concept of a rigidity matrix that has…
The paper studies continutity of Moser nonlinearity in two dimensions with respect to weak convergence. Unlike the critical nonlinearity in the Sobolev inequality, which lacks weak continuity at any point, Moser functional fails to be…
Via the AdS/CFT correspondence, fundamental constraints on the entanglement structure of quantum systems translate to constraints on spacetime geometries that must be satisfied in any consistent theory of quantum gravity. In this paper, we…
Let $\sigma_i$, $i=1,\ldots,n$, denote positive Borel measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$, let $\mathcal{D}$ denote the usual collection of dyadic cubes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $K:\,\mathcal{D}\to[0,\infty)$ be a~map. In this paper we give…
The geometric measure of entanglement, which expresses the minimum distance to product states, has been generalized to distances to sets that remain invariant under the stochastic reducibility relation. For each such set, an associated…
The square lattice with central forces between nearest neighbors is isostatic with a subextensive number of floppy modes. It can be made rigid by the random addition of next-nearest neighbor bonds. This constitutes a rigidity percolation…
We use the formalism of the R{\'e}nyi entropies to establish the symmetry range of extremal functions in a family of subcriti-cal Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities. By extremal functions we mean functions which realize the equality…
We investigate the rigidity problem for the logarithmic Sobolev inequality on weighted Riemannian manifolds satisfying $\mathrm{Ric}_{\infty} \ge K>0$. Assuming equality holds, we show that the $1$-dimensional Gaussian space is necessarily…
The Gaussian noise-stability of a set A in R^n is defined by S_rho(A) = P (X in A and Y in A) where X and Y are standard Gaussian vectors whose correlation is rho. Borell's inequality states that for all 0 < rho < 1, among all sets A with a…
This review is dedicated to some modern applications of the remarkable paper written in 1918 by E. Noether. On a single paper, Noether discovered the crucial relation between symmetries and conserved charges as well as the impact of gauge…
In this article we consider the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations and give a sufficient condition on Gaussian measures of jointly independent Fourier coefficients supported on $H^{\sigma}(\mathbb{T}^2)$ ($\sigma>3$) such that…
Using isoperimetry and symmetrization we provide a unified framework to study the classical and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. In particular, we obtain new Gaussian symmetrization inequalities and connect them with logarithmic Sobolev…
We establish a quantitative isoperimetric inequality for weighted Riemannian manifolds with $\mathrm{Ric}_{\infty} \ge 1$. Precisely, we give an upper bound of the volume of the symmetric difference between a Borel set and a sub-level (or…
The geodesic problem in Wasserstein spaces with a metric perturbed by a conformal factor is considered, and necessary optimality conditions are estabilished in a case where this conformal factor favours the spreading of the probability…
We introduce an alternative description of coarse proximities. We define a coarse normality condition for connected coarse spaces and show that this definition agrees with large scale normality defined in [3] and asymptotic normality…
