We characterize the set of semiclassical measures corresponding to sequences of eigenfunctions of the attractive Coulomb operator $\widehat{H}_{\hbar}:=-\frac{\hbar^2}{2}\Delta_{\mathbb{R}^3}-\frac{1}{|x|}$. In particular, any Radon…

In this paper we construct Ricci-positive metrics on the connected sum of products of arbitrarily many spheres provided the dimensions of all but one sphere in each summand are at least 3. There are two new technical theorems required to…

The third del Pezzo surface admits a unique Kaehler-Einstein metric, which is not known in closed form. The manifold's toric structure reduces the Einstein equation to a single Monge-Ampere equation in two real dimensions. We numerically…

More precise estimates for the Bergman metric on strongly pseudoconvex domains are given, based on the use of the squeezing function.

For any Lagrangean K\"ahler submanifold $M \subset T^*{\Bbb C}^n$, there exists a canonical hyper K\"ahler metric on $T^*M$. A K\"ahler potential for this metric is given by the generalized Calabi Ansatz of the theoretical physicists…

To each weakly holomorphic modular function $f\not \equiv 0$ for $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$, which is non-negative on the geodesic arc $\{e^{it} : \pi/3\leq t\leq 2\pi/3\}$, we attach a $\mathrm{GL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$-invariant map…

Functional determinants for the scalar Laplacian on spherical caps and slices, flat balls, shells and generalised cylinders are evaluated in two, three and four dimensions using conformal techniques. Both Dirichlet and Robin boundary…

We show that there exists a metric with positive scalar curvature on S2xS1 and a sequence of embedded minimal cylinders that converges to a minimal lamination that, in a neighborhood of a strictly stable 2-sphere, is smooth except at two…

This is a note on a recent paper of De Simoi-Kaloshin-Wei \cite{DKW}. We show that using their results combined with wave trace invariants of Guillemin-Melrose and the heat trace invariants of Zayed for the Laplacian with Robin boundary…

A spherical conical metric $g$ on a surface $\Sigma$ is a metric of constant curvature $1$ with finitely many isolated conical singularities. The uniformization problem for such metrics remains largely open when at least one of the cone…

(Version 3) We study the problem of finding functions, defined within and on an ellipse, whose Laplacian is -1 and which satisfy a homogeneous Robin boundary condition on the ellipse. The parameter in the Robin condition is denoted by beta.…

In this paper we construct smooth Riemannian metrics on the sphere which admit smooth Zoll families of minimal hypersurfaces. This generalizes a theorem of Guillemin for the case of geodesics. The proof uses the Nash-Moser Inverse Function…

For any convex function $F$ of $n$-dimensional Gaussian vector $g$ with $\mathbb{E} e^{\lambda F(g)}<\infty$ for any $\lambda>0$, we show that $\lambda^{-1}\ln \mathbb{E} e^{\lambda F(g)}$ is convex in $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. Based on this…

In general relativity, there have been a number of successful constructions for asymptotically flat metrics with a certain background foliation. In particular, C. -Y. Lin used a foliation by the Ricci flow on 2-spheres to establish an…

We give an application of a topological dynamics version of multidimensional Brown's lemma to tiling theory: given a tiling of an Euclidean space and a finite geometric pattern of points $F$, one can find a patch such that, for each scale…

We introduce an index for measuring the influence of the k-th smallest variable on a pseudo-Boolean function. This index is defined from a weighted least squares approximation of the function by linear combinations of order statistic…
