This paper is a continuation of \cite{Lu1}. In Part I, applying the new splitting theorems developed therein we generalize previous some results on computations of critical groups and some critical point theorems to weaker versions. In Part…
We obtain estimates for derivative and cross--ratio distortion for $C^{2+\eta}$ (any $\eta>0$) unimodal maps with non--flat critical points. We do not require any `Schwarzian--like' condition. For two intervals $J \subset T$, the…
Thermodynamics of chemical elements, based on the two-component electron-nuclear plasma model shows that the critical parameters for the liquid-vapor transition are the quantum values for which the classical limit is absent.
In this paper, using Mountain Pass Lemma and Linking Argument, we prove the existence of nontrivial weak solutions for the Dirichlet problem for the superlinear equation of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type in the case where the parameter…
In this paper, we present a novel approach to investigate the existence of multiple critical points for a class of nonsmooth functionals. This method provides a robust framework to analyze the existence of solutions for problems involving…
We focus on a sequence of functions $\{f_n\}$, defined on a compact manifold with boundary $S$, converging in the $C^k$ metric to a limit $f$. A common assumption implicitly made in the empirical sciences is that when such functions…
Quantum criticality of metal-insulator transitions in correlated electron systems is shownto belong to an unconventional universality class with violation of Ginzburg-Landau-Wilson(GLW) scheme formulated for symmetry breaking transitions.…
Critical metrology relies on the precise preparation of a system in its ground state near a quantum phase transition point where quantum correlations get very strong. Typically this increases the quantum Fisher information with respect to…
Changepoint detection is commonly formulated by minimizing the sum of in-sample losses to quantify the model's overall fit. However, for flexible modeling procedures -- especially those involving high-dimensional parameter spaces or…
Classical Morse theory proceeds by considering sublevel sets $f^{-1}(-\infty, a]$ of a Morse function $f: M \to R$, where $M$ is a smooth finite-dimensional manifold. In this paper, we study the topology of the level sets $f^{-1}(a)$ and…
The Kondo volume collapse describes valence transitions in f-electron metals, and is characterized by a line of first order transitions in the pressure-temperature phase plane terminated at critical end points. We analyze the quantum…
We consider a class of piecewise smooth one-dimensional maps with critical points and singularities (possibly with infinite derivative). Under mild summability conditions on the growth of the derivative on critical orbits, we prove the…
We establish an abstract critical point theorem for locally Lipschitz functionals that does not require any compactness condition of Palais-Smale type. It generalizes and unifies three other critical point theorems established in…
In the present paper we deal with a quasilinear problem involving a singular term and a parametric superlinear perturbation. We are interested in the existence, nonexistence and multiplicity of positive solutions as the parameter…
This paper is motivated by two problems in the theory of Diophantine approximation, namely, Davenport's problem regarding badly approximable points on submanifolds of a Euclidean space and Schmidt's problem regarding the intersections of…
We explore the dynamical behavior at and near a special class of two-dimensional quantum critical points. Each is a conformal quantum critical point (CQCP), where in the scaling limit the equal-time correlators are those of a…
A phase transition is an example of a ``topological defect'' in the space of parameters of a quantum or classical many-body systems. In this paper, we consider phase diagram topological defects of higher codimension. These have the property…
We give sufficient conditions for a $ C^1_c $-local diffeomorphism between Fr\'{e}chet spaces to be a global one. We extend the Clarke's theory of generalized gradients to the more general setting of Fr\'{e}chet spaces. As a consequence, we…
Phenomenological theory of the Mott transition is presented. When the critical temperature of the Mott transition is much higher than the quantum degeneracy temperature, the transition is essentially described by the Ising universality…
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…
