We consider the Gel'fand inverse problem and continue studies of [Mandache,2001]. We show that the Mandache-type instability remains valid even in the case of Dirichlet-to-Neumann map given on the energy intervals. These instability results…
With the idea of canceling the leading divergence in vacuum energy of $\varphi^4$ field theory a parameter is introduced that interpolates between free Hamiltonian with or without normal ordering. This leads to a condensate ground state…
We propose a new radiation condition for an infinite inhomogeneous two-dimensional medium which is periodic in the vertical direction and remains invariant in the horizontal direction. The classical Rayleigh-expansion radiation condition…
We show that for any $\gamma < \frac{1}{3}$ there exist H\"{o}lder continuous weak solutions $v \in C^{\gamma}([0,T] \times \mathbb{T}^2)$ of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations that strictly dissipate the total kinetic…
We show analytically that the vacuum electromagnetic stress-energy tensor outside a ball with constant dielectric constant and permeability always obeys the weak, null, dominant, and strong energy conditions. There are still no known…
We perform a non-perturbative study of the Coleman-Weinberg phase transition in scalar QED. Our method permits a consistent treatment of the effective potential near the origin, a region not accessible to perturbation theory. As a result,…
We consider a perturbation of a central force problem of the form \begin{equation*} \ddot x = V'(|x|) \frac{x}{|x|} + \varepsilon \,\nabla_x U(t,x), \quad x \in \mathbb{R}^{2} \setminus \{0\}, \end{equation*} where $\varepsilon \in…
We propose a mechanism for relaxing a gauge theory CP violating phase in discrete steps to very small values. The idea is that the CP violating phase includes the magnetic dual of a $4$-form flux which can discharge by the nucleation of…
In this paper, Lyapunov-Razumikhin technique, design of state-dependent switching laws, a fixed point theorem and variational methods are employed to derive the existence and the unique existence results of globally exponentially stable…
This paper studies the stability of covariance-intersection (CI)-based distributed Kalman filtering in time-varying systems. For the general time-varying case, a relationship between the error covariance and the observability Gramian is…
We initiate studying inverse spectral problems for Dirac-type functional-differential operators with constant delay. For simplicity, we restrict ourselves to the case when the delay parameter is not less than one half of the interval. For…
We revisit the supersymmetric CP problem and find that it can be naturally resolved if the origin of CP violation is closely related to the origin of flavour structures. In this case, the supersymmetry breaking dynamics do not bring in any…
Nonperturbative methods have been well-developed for QED with the so-called t-electric potential steps. In this case a calculation technique is based on the existence of specific exact solutions (in and out solutions) of the Dirac equation.…
We study the behavior of perturbations in a compressible one-dimensional inviscid gas with an ambient state consisting of constant pressure and periodically-varying density. We show through asymptotic analysis that long-wavelength…
We show that scattering a quantum particle on a one-dimensional potential barrier as well as scattering the electromagnetic wave on a quasi-one-dimensional layered structure (both represent scattering problems with one 'source' and two…
Invariance under time translation (or stationarity) is probably one of the most important assumptions made when investigating electromagnetic phenomena. Breaking this assumption is expected to open up novel possibilities and result in…
The neutron, in addition to possibly having a permanent electric dipole moment as a consequence of violation of time-reversal invariance, develops an induced electric dipole moment in the presence of an external electric field. We present…
We investigate a lattice scalar field theory in the presence of a bias favouring the establishment of an energy current, as a model for stationary nonequilibrium processes at low temperature in a non-integrable system. There is a transition…
We prove that given any $\beta<1/3$, a time interval $[0,T]$, and given any smooth energy profile $e \colon [0,T] \to (0,\infty)$, there exists a weak solution $v$ of the three-dimensional Euler equations such that $v \in…
We study the possibility of spontaneous CP violation in string models with the dilaton field stabilized at a phenomenologically acceptable value. We consider three mechanisms to stabilize the dilaton: multiple gaugino condensates, a…
