Abstract. In this paper we prove several rigidity theorems related to and including Lytchak's problem. The focus is on Alexandrov spaces with \curv\geq1, nonempty boundary, and maximal radius \frac{\pi}{2}. We exhibit many such spaces that…
We study stability of the spectral gap and observable diameter for metricmeasure spaces satisfying the RCD(1, $\infty$) condition. We show that if such a space has an almost maximal spectral gap, then it almost contains a Gaussian…
In this paper we present a proof of a Neumann type maximum principle for the Laplace operator on compact Riemannian manifolds. A key p oint is the simple geometric nature of the constant in the a priori estimate of this maximum principle.…
Recently, the first author together with Jens Marklof studied generalizations of the classical three distance theorem to higher dimensional toral rotations, giving upper bounds in all dimensions for the corresponding numbers of distances…
Two ways to deduce the equivalence of the field equations of general relativity and the principle of maximum force $c^4/4G$ - or the equivalent maximum power $c^5/4G$ - are presented. A simple deduction of inverse square gravity directly…
A refined version of the strong maximum principle is proven for a class of second order ordinary differential equations with possibly discontinuous non-monotone nonlinearities. Then, exploiting this tool, some optimal regularity results…
We prove an optimal Hardy inequality for the fractional Laplacian on the half-space.
In this paper we prove a strong maximum principle for certain parabolic systems of equations. In particular, our methods place no restriction on the regularity of the boundary of the convex set in which the system takes its values, and…
We give an upper bound on the number of rational points of an arbitrary Zariski closed subset of a projective space over a finite field. This bound depends only on the dimensions and degrees of the irreducible components and holds for very…
We prove some sharp upper bounds on the number of resonances associated with the Laplacian, or Laplacian plus potential, on a manifold with infinite cylidrical ends.
We propose a relativistic version of the cosmological principle and confront it to the Hubble diagram of supernovae and other probes.
Some analysis on the Lorentzian distance in a spacetime with controlled sectional (or Ricci) curvatures is done. In particular, we focus on the study of the restriction of such distance to a spacelike hypersurface satisfying the Omori-Yau…
The maximum principle forms an important qualitative property of second order elliptic equations, therefore its discrete analogues, the so-called discrete maximum principles (DMPs) have drawn much attention. In this paper DMPs are…
Differential completions and compactifications of differential spaces are introduced and investigated. The existence of the maximal differential completion and the maximal differential compactification is proved. A sufficient condition for…
We give a unified approach to strong maximum principles for a large class of nonlocal operators of the order $s\in(0,1)$, that includes the Dirichlet, the Neumann Restricted (or Regional) and the Neumann Semirestricted Laplacians.
The maximum principle for SPDEs is established in multidimensional $C^{1}$ domains. An application is given to proving the H\"older continuity up to the boundary of solutions of one-dimensional SPDEs.
We investigate the problem of packing identical hard objects on regular lattices in d dimensions. Restricting configuration space to parallel alignment of the objects, we study the densest packing at a given aspect ratio X. For rectangles…
We obtain the sharp version of the uncertainty principle recently introduced in [47], and improved by [13], relating the size of the zero set of a continuous function having zero mean and the optimal transport cost between the mass of the…
We develop a structure theory for RCD spaces with curvature bounded above in Alexandrov sense. In particular, we show that any such space is a topological manifold with boundary whose interior is equal to the set of regular points. Further…
The inverse-square law states that the effect a source has on its surroundings is inversely proportional to the square of the Euclidean distance from that source. Its applicability spans multiple fields including physics, engineering, and…
