We study the local differential geometry of varieties $X^n\subset \Bbb C\Bbb P^{n+a}$ with degenerate secant and tangential varieties. We show that the second fundamental form of a smooth variety with degenerate tangential variety is…
We adapt and extend Yosida's parametrix method, originally introduced for the construction of the fundamental solution to a parabolic operator on a Riemannian manifold, to derive Varadhan-type asymptotic estimates for the transition density…
It turns out that a parametrization of degenerate density matrices requires a parametrization of $\mathfrak{F}=U(n)/({U(k_1)\times U(k_2)\times \cdots \times U(k_m)})\quad n=k_1 +\cdots + k_m $ where $U(k)$ denotes the set of all unitary…

Singular perturbations have been used to select solutions of (non-convex) variational problems with a multiplicity of minimizers. The prototype of such an approach is the gradient theory of phase transitions by L. Modica, who specialized…
