The space-time length R between a moving source and the observation point is calculated in order to substitute with it the spatial distance D, normally used in the Newton's law of gravitation, as well as in any inverse-square-law.…
We show that the size of codes in projective space controls structural results for zeros of odd maps from spheres to Euclidean space. In fact, this relation is given through the topology of the space of probability measures on the sphere…
The Hubble constant problem is the discrepancy between different measurements of the Hubble constant in different scales. We show that this problem can be resolved within the general relativistic framework of the perturbation theory in the…
We introduce a new method for studying stochastic homogenization of elliptic equations in nondivergence form. The main application is an algebraic error estimate, asserting that deviations from the homogenized limit are at most proportional…
In this paper, we give an overview of the results established in [3] which provides the first rigorous derivation of hydrodynamic equations from the Boltzmann equation for inelastic hard spheres in 3D. In particular, we obtain a new system…
Spherical radial basis functions are used to define approximate solutions to strongly elliptic pseudodifferential equations on the unit sphere. These equations arise from geodesy. The approximate solutions are found by the Galerkin and…
We consider the energy-critical Schroedinger map initial value problem with smooth initial data from R^2 into the sphere S^2. Given sufficiently energy-dispersed data with subthreshold energy, we prove that the system admits a unique global…
Galaxy velocities in clusters, rotation curves of galaxies, and "vertical" oscillations in the Milky Way currently show too high velocities with respect to the masses thought to be involved. While these velocity excesses are currently…
Boltzmann's principle S(E,N,V...)=ln W(E,N,V...) allows the interpretation of Statistical Mechanics of a closed system as Pseudo-Riemannian geometry in the space of the conserved parameters E,N,V... (the conserved mechanical parameters in…
Stokes phenomenon refers to the fact that the asymptotic expansion of complex functions can differ in different regions of the complex plane, and that beyond the so-called Stokes lines has an unphysical divergence. An important special case…
The calculation of the discrete atomistic energy of a crystal near the continuum limit encounters difficulties caused by the geometric discrepancy between the continuum region occupied by the body, and the discrete collection of lattice…
This is the second of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several approaches to vector calculus in the non-smooth setting of complete and separable metric spaces…
For each arbitrary finite group $G$, we consider a suitable notion of Gromov Hausdorff distance between compact $G$ metric spaces and derive lower bounds based on equivariant topology methods. As applications, we prove equivariant rigidity…
In the debate about galaxy correlation there are different questions which can be addressed separately: Which are the statistical methods able to properly detect scale invariance and describe, in general, the properties of irregular and…
It is generally believed that inflationary cosmology explains the isotropy, large scale homogeneity and flatness as well as predicting the deviations from homogeneity of our universe. We show that this is not the only cosmology which can…
The aim of this note is to compare the averaged optimal coplanar transfer towards circular orbits when the costs are the transfer time transfer and the energy consumption. While the energy case leads to analyze a 2D Riemannian metric using…
We establish improved versions of the Hardy and Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities by replacing the standard Dirichlet energy with some nonlocal nonconvex functionals which have been involved in estimates for the topological degree of…
Variational principle is the main approach to obtain complete and self-consistent field equations in gravitational theories. This method works well in pure field cases such as $f(R)$ and Horndeski gravities. However, debates exist in the…
Scaling symmetries of the Euler-Lagrange equations are generally not variational symmetries of the action and do not lead to conservation laws. Nevertheless, by an extension of Noether's theorem, scaling symmetries lead to useful {\em…
