In 1934, Reinhardt asked for the centrally symmetric convex domain in the plane whose best lattice packing has the lowest density. He conjectured that the unique solution up to an affine transformation is the smoothed octagon (an octagon…

We present a decomposition principle for general regular Dirichlet forms satisfying a spatial local compactness condition. We use the decomposition principle to derive a Persson type theorem for the corresponding Dirichlet forms. In…

P. J. Kelly conjectured in 1968 that every diregular tournament on (2n+1) points can be decomposed in directed Hamilton circuits [1]. We define so called leading diregular tournament on (2n+1) points and show that it can be decomposed in…

We show that the multipole vector decomposition, recently introduced by Copi et al., is a consequence of Sylvester's theorem, and corresponds to the Maxwell's representation. Analyzing it in terms of harmonic polynomials, we show that this…

Vector tomography methods intend to reconstruct and visualize vector fields in restricted domains by measuring line integrals of projections of these vector fields. Here, we deal with the reconstruction of irrotational vector functions from…

The geometric theory of additive separation of variables is applied to the search for multiplicative separated solutions of the bi-Helmholtz equation. It is shown that the equation does not admit regular separation in any coordinate system…

In this short note we have proved an enhanced version of a theorem of Lorentz [1] and its generalization to the multivariate case which gives a non- uniform estimate of degree of approximation by a polynomial with positive coefficients. The…

We study the global existence issue for a three-dimensional Approximate Deconvolution Model with a vertical filter. We consider this model in a bounded cylindrical domain where we construct a unique global weak solution. The proof is based…

Correlation functions of most composite operators decay exponentially with time at non-zero temperature, even in free field theories. This insight was recently codified in an OTH (operator thermalisation hypothesis). We reconsider an early…

We discuss a time-harmonic inverse scattering problem for the Helmholtz equation with compactly supported penetrable and possibly inhomogeneous scattering objects in an unbounded homogeneous background medium, and we develop a monotonicity…

We prove that the space of vector fields on the boundary of a bounded domain in three dimensions is decomposed into three subspaces orthogonal to each other: elements of the first one extend to the inside of the domain as gradient fields of…

We discuss parallel (additive) and sequential (multiplicative) variants of overlapping Schwarz methods for the Helmholtz equation in $\mathbb{R}^d$, with large real wavenumber and smooth variable wave speed. The radiation condition is…

We show that general cutoff scalar field theories in four dimensions are perturbatively renormalizable through the use of diagrammatic techniques and an adapted BPH renormalization method. Weinberg's convergence theorem is used to show that…

We propose a low-rank method for solving the Helmholtz equation. Our approach is based on the WaveHoltz method, which computes Helmholtz solutions by applying a time-domain filter to the solution of a related wave equation. The wave…

New splitting theorems in a semi-Riemannian manifold which admits an irrotational vector field (not necessarily a gradient) with some suitable properties are obtained. According to the extras hypothesis assumed on the vector field, we can…

It is proved that if a graph is regular of even degree and contains a Hamilton cycle, or regular of odd degree and contains a Hamiltonian $3$-factor, then its line graph is Hamilton decomposable. This result partially extends Kotzig's…

Traditionally, the diffraction of a scalar wave satisfying Helmholtz equation through an aperture on an otherwise black screen can be solved approximately by Kirchhoff's integral over the aperture. Rubinowicz, on the other hand, was able to…

For the Maxwellian molecules or hard potentials case, we verify the smoothing effect for the spatially inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff. Given initial data with low regularity, we prove its solutions at any positive…

It is well known that when the geometry and/or coefficients allow stable trapped rays, the outgoing solution operator of the Helmholtz equation (a.k.a. the resolvent of the Laplacian) grows exponentially through a sequence of real…

We develop the regularity theory of the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with cut-off and hard potentials (for instance, hard spheres), by (i) revisiting the Lp-theory to obtain constructive bounds, (ii) establishing propagation of…
