Matrix-valued covariance functions are crucial to geostatistical modeling of multivariate spatial data. The classical assumption of symmetry of a multivariate covariance function is overlay restrictive and has been considered as unrealistic…
In this paper, we consider stochastic control problems on the Sierpinski gasket. An order comparison lemma is derived using heat kernel estimate for Brownian motion on the gasket. Using the order comparison lemma and techniques of BSDEs, we…
X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect observations can be combined to measure the distance to clusters of galaxies. If the intracluster gas distribution is not spherical, but elongated by a factor of Z along the line of sight, the inferred…
It is shown that the restriction of a polynomial to a sphere satisfies a Logvinenko-Sereda-Kovrijkine type inequality (a specific type of uncertainty relation). This implies a spectral inequality for the Laplace-Beltrami operator, which, in…
We provide a set of general tools to study the problem of stellar equilibrium in any gravitational theory in which spherically symmetric spacetimes satisfy master field equations taking the form of an equality between an identically…
The role of the domain geometry for the statistical mechanics of 2D Euler flows is investigated. It is shown that for a spherical domain, there exists invariant subspaces in phase space which yield additional angular momentum, energy and…
In this paper we consider approximations introduced by Sacks-Uhlenbeck of the harmonic energy for maps from $S^2$ into $S^2$. We continue the analysis in [6] about limits of $\alpha$-harmonic maps with uniformly bounded energy. Using a…
We consider the Euler equations of incompressible inviscid fluid dynamics. We discuss a variational formulation of the governing equations in Lagrangian coordinates. We compute variational symmetries of the action functional and generate…
The celebrated problem of a non-homogeneous sphere rolling over a horizontal plane was proved to be integrable and was reduced to quadratures by Chaplygin. Applying the formalism of variational integrators (discrete Lagrangian systems) with…
The consideration of the N-body gravitational problem equations can give to us some class of boundary-value problems defined on the "beem's" construction. One can considere it as weak or so-called finite element method's approximation with…
We investigate the influence of diffraction on the statistics of energy levels in quantum systems with a chaotic classical limit. By applying the geometrical theory of diffraction we show that diffraction on singularities of the potential…
The purpose of this paper is to study the existence of weak solutions for some classes of hemivariational problems in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d\geq 3$). These hemivariational inequalities have a variational structure and,…

We calculate the systematic errors in the weak gravitational lensing power spectrum which would be caused by spatially varying calibration (i.e. multiplicative) errors, such as might arise from uncorrected seeing or extinction variations.…
We study a stochastic Hamiltonian system of $N$ particles with many particles interacting through a potential whose range is large in comparison with the typical distance between neighbouring particles. It is shown that the empirical…
We numerically benchmark methods for computing harmonic maps into the unit sphere, with particular focus on harmonic maps with singularities. For the discretization we compare two different approaches, both based on Lagrange finite…
We show that the invariant measure of point vortices, when conditioning the Hamiltonian to a finite interval, converges weakly to the enstrophy measure by conditioning the renormalized energy to the same interval. We also prove the…
The relation between thermodynamic phase transitions in classical systems and topology changes in their state space is discussed for systems in which equivalence of statistical ensembles does not hold. As an example, the spherical model…
The discrete ordinates method with angular parameters is discussed in light of the recent extension of its underlying hypothesis. The analysis shows that the method, although it compares very well with the trajectory of photons model, it…
This paper is devoted to the well-posedness of stochastic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations in the energy space H1(Rd), which is a natural continuation of our recent work [1]. We consider both focusing and defocusing nonlinearities and…
