A new analytical formulation is prescribed to solve the Helmholtz equation in 2D with arbitrary boundary. A suitable diffeomorphism is used to annul the asymmetries in the boundary by mapping it into an equivalent circle. This results in a…

A Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n \mapsto \{0,1\}$ is said to be $\eps$-far from monotone if $f$ needs to be modified in at least $\eps$-fraction of the points to make it monotone. We design a randomized tester that is given oracle access to…

We consider diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold with a dominated splitting which is hyperbolic except for a "small" subset of points (Hausdorff dimension smaller than one, e.g. a denumerable subset) and prove the existence of physical…

Let $E \subset \Omega$ be a local almost-minimizer of the relative perimeter in the open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$. We prove a free-boundary monotonicity inequality for $E$ at a point $x\in \partial\Omega$, under a geometric…

We show that for any constant $c>0$, any (two-sided error) adaptive algorithm for testing monotonicity of Boolean functions must have query complexity $\Omega(n^{1/2-c})$. This improves the $\tilde\Omega(n^{1/3})$ lower bound of [CWX17] and…
