In a lossless periodic structure, a bound state in the continuum (BIC) is characterized by a real frequency and a real Bloch wavevector for which there exist waves propagating to or from infinity in the surrounding media. For applications,…
We obtain upper bounds for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of a tube around a complex submanifold $P$ of $CP^n$ which depends only on the radius of the tube, the degrees of the polynomials defining $P$ and the first eigenvalue of some model…
We discuss present and future cosmological constraints on variations of the fine structure constant $\alpha$ induced by an early dark energy component having the simplest allowed (linear) coupling to electromagnetism. We find that current…
Reduced Bloch mode expansion is presented for fast periodic media band structure calculations. The expansion employs a natural basis composed of a selected reduced set of Bloch eigenfunctions. The reduced basis is selected within the…
We prove the sharp lower bound of the first Neumann eigenvalue for bounded convex planar domain in term of its diameter and width.
We consider a weakly interacting finite wire with short and long range interactions. The long range interactions enhance the $4k_{F}$ scattering and renormalize the wire to a strongly interacting limit. For large screening lengths, the…
We study the behavior of steady state voltage potentials in two kinds of bidimensional media composed of material of complex permittivity equal to 1 (respectively $\alpha$) surrounded by a thin membrane of thickness $h$ and of complex…
We study waves-packets in nonlinear periodic media in arbitrary ($d$) spatial dimension, modeled by the cubic Gross-Pitaevskii equation. In the asymptotic setting of small and broad waves-packets with $N\in \mathbb{N}$ carrier Bloch waves…
We study weakly stable semilinear hyperbolic boundary value problems with highly oscillatory data. Here weak stability means that exponentially growing modes are absent, but the so-called uniform Lopatinskii condition fails at some boundary…
This paper is focused on the study of an inverse problem for a non-self-adjoint hyperbolic equation. More precisely, we attempt to stably recover a first order coefficient appearing in a wave equation from the knowledge of Neumann boundary…
We find upper and lower bounds for the first eigenvalue and the volume entropy of a noncompact real analytic K\"ahler manifold, in terms of Calabi's diastasis function and diastatic entropy, which are sharp in the case of the complex…
For suspensions of permeable particles, the short-time translational and rotational self-diffusion coefficients, and collective diffusion and sedimentation coefficients are evaluated theoretically. An individual particle is modeled as a…
We define a `hyperconductor' to be a material whose electrical and thermal DC conductivities are infinite at zero temperature and finite at any non-zero temperature. The low-temperature behavior of a hyperconductor is controlled by a…
In this paper, we want to study the asymptotic behavior of the first $p$-Laplacian eigenvalue, with Robin boundary conditions, with negative boundary parameter. In particular, we prove that the limit of the eigenfunctions is a viscosity…
Despite the formal analogy with the Higgs particle, the amplitude fluctuations of the order parameter in weakly-coupled superconductors do not identify a real mode with a Lorentz-invariant dynamics. Indeed, its resonance occurs at…
A Monte Carlo-maximum entropy calculation of the optical conductivity of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model is presented. We show that the optical conductivity displays the anomalies found in the cuprate superconductors, including a…
Bloch electrons in multiorbital systems carry nontrivial quantum geometric information characteristic of their orbital composition as a function of their wave vector. When such electrons form Cooper pairs, the resultant superconducting…
The present paper deals with the wave propagation in a particular two dimensional structure, obtained from a localized perturbation of a reference periodic medium. This reference medium is a ladder like domain, namely a thin periodic…
We study a variational problem for the first Schrodinger eigenvalue on closed Riemannian surfaces. More precisely, we explore concentration-compactness properties of sequences formed by its extremal potentials.
We deepen the study of Dirichlet eigenvalues in bounded domains where a thin tube is attached to the boundary. As its section shrinks to a point, the problem is spectrally stable and we quantitatively investigate the rate of convergence of…
