The conventional Wigner function is inappropriate in a quantum field theory setting because, as a quasiprobability density over phase space, it is not manifestly Lorentz covariant. A manifestly relativistic variant is constructed as a…
This work deals with the Landau equation in a bounded domain with the Maxwell reflection condition on the boundary for any (possibly smoothly position dependent) accommodation coefficient and for the full range of interaction potentials,…
We survey Kondrat'ev--Landis' conjecture, providing an up-to-date account of the main advances and describing the techniques developed. We complement the overview with references and formulations of the problem in further closely connected…
We proposed a simple Ansatz for the vacuum wave functional (VWF) of SU(2) gauge theory in temporal gauge. In 2+1 dimensions, the Ansatz was shown to be a fairly good approximation to the true VWF of the theory. Relative probabilities of…
Planar functions over finite fields give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. They exist only in odd characteristic, but recently Zhou introduced an even characteristic analogue which has similar applications.…
Hadwiger's theorem is a Helly-type theorem involving common transversals to families of convex sets instead of common intersections. Subsequently, Pollack and Wenger identified a necessary and sufficient condition, called a consistent…
Exactly solvable models of planar polygons, weighted by perimeter and area, have deepened our understanding of the critical behaviour of polygon models in recent years. Based on these results, we derive a conjecture for the exact form of…
Given a probability measure space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$, it is well known that the Riesz space $L^0(\mu)$ of equivalence classes of measurable functions $f: X \to \mathbf{R}$ is universally complete and the constant function $\mathbf{1}$ is a…
Lov\'asz Local Lemma (LLL) is a probabilistic tool that allows us to prove the existence of combinatorial objects in the cases when standard probabilistic argument does not work (there are many partly independent conditions). LLL can be…
We consider the linear span S of the functions tak (with some ak > 0) in weighted L2 spaces, with rather general weights. We give one necessary and one sufficient condition for S to be dense. Some comparisons are also made between the new…
Carath\'eodory's conjecture has long been regarded as one of the central problems in the classical theory of convex surfaces. In this paper, we establish an index formula for hemispheres of convex closed surfaces under $C^2$-regularity. The…
In this manuscript, we appeal to Potential Theory to provide a sufficient condition for existence of distributional solutions to fractional elliptic problems with non-linear first-order terms and measure data $\omega$: $$ \left\{…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, be a bounded connected $C^2$ domain. For any unit vector $\nu\in\mathbb{R}^n$, let $T_{\lambda}^{\nu}=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:x\cdot\nu=\lambda\}$,…
We study "random surfaces," which are random real (or integer) valued functions on Z^d. The laws are determined by convex, nearest neighbor, difference potentials that are invariant under translation by a full-rank sublattice L of Z^d; they…
In this paper, we study the existence of positive solution for the following class of fractional elliptic equation $$ \epsilon^{2s} (-\Delta)^{s}{u}+V(z)u=\lambda |u|^{q-2}u+|u|^{2^{*}_{s}-2}u\,\,\, \mbox{in} \,\,\, \mathbb{R}^{N}, $$ where…
Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, and $1<p<\infty$. Fix $V\in L_{\mathrm{loc}}^\infty(\Omega)$. Consider the functional $Q$ and its G\^{a}teaux derivative $Q^\prime$ given by $$Q(u):=\int_\Omega (|\nabla…
We test the predictions of the L-functions Ratios Conjecture for the family of cuspidal newforms of weight k and level N, with either k fixed and N --> oo through the primes or N=1 and k --> oo. We study the main and lower order terms in…
Given a bounded Lipschitz domain $\omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d-1}$ and a lower semicontinuous function $W:\mathbb{R}^N\to\mathbb{R}_+\cup\{+\infty\}$ that vanishes on a finite set and that is bounded from below by a positive constant at…
In this paper we prove the validity of Gibbons' conjecture for the quasilinear elliptic equation $ -\Delta_p u = f(u) $ on $\mathbb{R}^N.$ The result holds true for $(2N+2)/(N+2) < p < 2$ and for a very general class of nonlinearity $f$.
Let $f:[0,+\infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ be a (locally) Lipschitz function and $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ a $C^{1,\alpha}$ domain whose boundary is unbounded and connected. If there exists a positive bounded solution to the overdetermined…
