Feynman's Lagrangian path integral was an outgrowth of Dirac's vague surmise that Lagrangians have a role in quantum mechanics. Lagrangians implicitly incorporate Hamilton's first equation of motion, so their use contravenes the uncertainty…

This conference talk elaborates on a recently discovered mapping procedure by which classical orbits and path integrals for the motion of a point particle in flat space can be transformed correctly into those in curved space. This procedure…

Starting from the canonical formalism of relativistic (timeless) quantum mechanics, the formulation of timeless path integral is rigorously derived. The transition amplitude is reformulated as the sum, or functional integral, over all…

In this paper the Feynman path integral technique is applied to two-dimensional spaces of non-constant curvature: these spaces are called Darboux spaces $\DI$--$\DIV$. We start each consideration in terms of the metric and then analyze the…

We prove a reducibility result for a linear wave equation with a time quasi-periodic driving on the one dimensional torus. The driving is assumed to be fast oscillating, but not necessarily of small size. Provided that the external…

The approximation of fixed points by numerical fixed points was presented in the elegant monograph of Krasnosel'skii et al. (1972). The theory, both in its formulation and implementation, requires a differential operator calculus, so that…

The Sobolev space $H^{s}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$, where $s > d/2$, is an important function space that has many applications in various areas of research. Attributed to the inertia of a measuring instrument, it is desirable in sampling theory to…

We prove the well-posedness for the non-cutoff Boltzmann equation with soft potentials when the initial datum is close to the {\it global Maxwellian} and has only polynomial decay at the large velocities in $L^2$ space. As a result, we get…

We develop a general framework for pathwise stochastic integration that extends F\"ollmer's classical approach beyond gradient-type integrands and standard left-point Riemann sums and provides pathwise counterparts of It\^o, Stratonovich,…

We study sampling problems associated with non-convex potentials that meanwhile lack smoothness. In particular, we consider target distributions that satisfy either logarithmic-Sobolev inequality or Poincar\'e inequality. Rather than…
