We address the problem of computing approximate marginals in Gaussian probabilistic models by using mean field and fractional Bethe approximations. As an extension of Welling and Teh (2001), we define the Gaussian fractional Bethe free…

We obtain Gaussian upper bounds for heat kernels of higher order differential operators with Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded domains in $\R^N$. The bounds exhibit explicitly the nature of the spatial decay of the heat kernel close…

Now that the properties of low temperature Bose gases at low density, $\rho$, can be examined experimentally it is appropriate to revisit some of the formulas deduced by many authors 4-5 decades ago. One of these is that the leading term in…

Although there is an extensive literature on the maxima of Gaussian processes, there are relatively few non-asymptotic bounds on their lower-tail probabilities. The aim of this paper is to develop such a bound, while also allowing for many…

Given a compact $d$-rectifiable set $A$ embedded in Euclidean space and a distribution $\rho(x)$ with respect to $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure on $A$, we address the following question: how can one generate optimal configurations of $N$…

Gaussian process regression has recently emerged as a powerful, system-agnostic tool for building global potential energy surfaces (PES) of polyatomic molecules. While the accuracy of GP models of PES increases with the number of potential…

We propose a lower bound on the log marginal likelihood of Gaussian process regression models that can be computed without matrix factorisation of the full kernel matrix. We show that approximate maximum likelihood learning of model…

We discuss the processes $\pi \pi \to \pi \pi$ and $\pi \pi \to \pi \pi \gamma$ from a general quantum field theory (QFT) point of view. We study the soft-photon limit where the photon energy $\omega \to 0$ and where we have the theorems…

Let O be a closed geodesic polygon in S^2. Maps from O into S^2 are said to satisfy tangent boundary conditions if the edges of O are mapped into the geodesics which contain them. Taking O to be an octant of S^2, we compute the infimum…

Consider $N$ bosons in a finite box $\Lambda= [0,L]^3\subset \mathbf R^3$ interacting via a two-body smooth repulsive short range potential. We construct a variational state which gives the following upper bound on the ground state energy…

Consider $N$ bosons in a finite box $\Lambda= [0,L]^3\subset \bR^3$ interacting via a two-body nonnegative soft potential $V= \lambda \tilde V$ with $\tilde V$ fixed and $\lambda>0$ small. We will take the limit $L, N \to \infty$ by keeping…

A basis set of generalized nonspherical Gaussian functions (GGTOs) is presented and discussed. As a first example we report on Born-Oppenheimer energies of the hydrogen molecule. Although accurate results have been obtained, we conclude…

A particularly simple relation of proportionality between internal energy and pressure holds for scale invariant thermodynamic systems, including classical and quantum Bose and Fermi ideal gases. One can quantify the deviation from such a…

In strongly-coupled theories with no small parameters, there are factors of 4\pi that appear when the couplings of the low-energy effective lagrangian are written in units of the effective cutoff \Lambda. These numerical factors can be…

We establish the fundamental limit of communication capacity within Gaussian schemes under phase-insensitive Gaussian channels, which employ multimode Gaussian states for encoding and collective Gaussian operations and measurements for…

Within the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (CMSSM) it is possible to predict the low energy gauge couplings and masses of the 3.generation particles from a few parameters at the GUT scale, and electroweak symmetry…

In this work, we derive rigorous and universal bounds on the geometric characteristics of black holes in asymptotically flat spacetimes under assumptions that weak energy condition is satisfied. We prove that the event horizon radius, the…

We consider the renormalized relativistic Nelson model in two spatial dimensions for a finite number of spinless, relativistic quantum mechanical matter particles in interaction with a massive scalar quantized radiation field. We find a…

Many functions have approximately-known upper and/or lower bounds, potentially aiding the modeling of such functions. In this paper, we introduce Gaussian process models for functions where such bounds are (approximately) known. More…
