Let $\alpha$ be a real algebraic number of degree $d \geq 3$ and let $\beta \in \mathbb Q(\alpha)$ be irrational. Let $\mu$ be a real number such that $(d/2) + 1 < \mu < d$ and let $C_0$ be a positive real number. We prove that there exist…

Given an exterior domain $\Omega$ with $C^{2,\alpha}$ boundary in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq3$, we obtain a $1$-parameter family $u_{\gamma}\in C^{\infty}\left(\Omega\right) $, $\left\vert \gamma\right\vert \leq\pi/2$, of solutions of the…

We further develop the relationship between $\beta$-numbers and discrete curvatures to provide a new proof that under weak density assumptions, finiteness of the pointwise discrete curvature $\operatorname{curv}^{\alpha}_{\mu;2}(x,r)$ at…

In this article we study optimization problems ruled by $\alpha$-fractional diffusion operators with volume constraints. By means of penalization techniques we prove existence of solutions. We also show that every solution is locally of…

For a vectorial Bernoulli-type free boundary problem, with no sign assumption on the components, we prove that flatness of the free boundary implies $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity, as well-known in the scalar case \cite{AC,C2}. While in…

Suppose $\Omega\Subset \mathbb R^2$ and $f\in BV_{loc}(\Omega)\cap C^0(\Omega)$ with $|f|>0$ in $\Omega$. Let $u\in C^0(\Omega)$ be a viscosity solution to the inhomogeneous $\infty$-Laplace equation $$ -\Delta_{\infty} u…

We study several constrained variational problem in the 2-Wasserstein metric for which the set of probability densities satisfying the constraint is not closed. For example, given a probability density $F_0$ on $\R^d$ and a time-step $h>0$,…

The paper is devoted to study analogues of the van der Corput lemmas involving Mittag-Leffler functions. The generalisation is that we replace the exponential function with the Mittag-Leffler-type function, to study oscillatory integrals…

Let $\A$ be a $C^*$-algebra and $\B$ be a von Neumann algebra that both act on a Hilbert space $\Ha$. Let $\M$ and $\N$ be inner product modules over $\A$ and $\B$, respectively. Under certain assumptions we show that for each mapping…

We consider minimization problems of functionals given by the difference between the Willmore functional of a closed surface and its area, when the latter is multiplied by a positive constant weight $\Lambda$ and when the surfaces are…

We study the convolution function $$ C[f(x)] := \int_1^x f(y)f({x\over y}) {{\rm d} y\over y} $$ when $f(x)$ is a suitable number-theoretic error term. Asymptotics and upper bounds for $C[f(x)]$ are derived from mean square bounds for…

In this paper, we consider a variational formulation for the Dirichlet problem of the wave equation with zero boundary and initial conditions, where we use integration by parts in space and time. To prove unique solvability in a subspace of…

The goal of this work is to discuss how should we impose initial values in fractional problems to ensure that they have exactly one smooth unique solution, where smooth simply means that the solution lies in a certain suitable space of…

Let $\phi\in \mathscr{S}$ with $\int\phi (x)\, dx=1$, and define $$\phi_t(x)=\frac{1}{t^n}\phi (\frac{x}{t}),$$ and denote the function family $\{\phi_t\ast f(x)\}_{t>0}$ by $\Phi\ast f(x)$. Suppose that there exists a constant $C_1$ such…

We study the higher regularity of free boundaries in obstacle problems for integro-differential operators with drift, like $(-\Delta)^s +b\cdot\nabla$, in the subcritical regime $s>\frac{1}{2}$. Our main result states that once the free…

Let $\Sigma:=[0,\infty)\times S^2$, $\mathscr F:=L_2(\Sigma)$. The {\it forward} acoustic scattering problem under consideration is to find $u=u^f(x,t)$ satisfying \begin{align} \label{Eq 01} &u_{tt}-\Delta u+qu=0, && (x,t) \in {\mathbb…

Let $\Omega$ be a $\mathcal C^2$-bounded domain of $\mathbb R^d$, $d=2,3$, and fix $Q=(0,T)\times\Omega$ with $T\in(0,+\infty]$. In the present paper we consider a Dirichlet initial-boundary value problem associated to the semilinear…

Transformation of the conventional radial Schr\"odinger equation defined on the interval $\,r\in[0,\infty)$ into an equivalent form defined on the finite domain $\,y(r)\in [a,b]\,$ allows the s-wave scattering length $a_s$ to be exactly…

Extending the notion of bounded variation, a function $u \in L_c^1(\mathbb R^n)$ is of bounded fractional variation with respect to some exponent $\alpha$ if there is a finite constant $C \geq 0$ such that the estimate \[ \biggl|\int u(x)…

We find sufficient conditions for a probability measure $\mu$ to satisfy an inequality of the type $$ \int_{\R^d} f^2 F\Bigl(\frac{f^2}{\int_{\R^d} f^2 d \mu} \Bigr) d \mu \le C \int_{\R^d} f^2 c^{*}\Bigl(\frac{|\nabla f|}{|f|} \Bigr) d \mu…
