We consider the $m$-dimensional modified Helmholtz equation and establish two relations between its solutions in a bounded domain and harmonic functions. Both relations essentially rely on properties of the Newtonian potential. Some other…

The solution to a problem in quantum mechanics is generally a linear superposition of states. The solutions for double well potentials epitomize this property, and go even further than this: they can often be described by an effective model…
This thesis is divided in two parts. The first part contains the study of some properties of the electromagnetic duality in 4 dimensions. An extended double potential formalism for linearized gravity is introduced which allows to write an…
The Schroedinger equation with one and two dimensional potentials are solved in the frame work of the sl(2) Lie algebra. Eigenfunctions of the Schroedinger equation for various asymmetric double-well potentials have been determined and the…

We consider a possibly multiply connected bounded open subset $\Omega$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ of class $C^{\max\{1,m\},\alpha}$ for some $m\in {\mathbb{N}}$, $\alpha\in]0,1[$ and we plan to solve both the Dirichlet and the Neumann problem for…
The notion of $p$-ellipticity has recently played a significant role in improving our understanding of issues of solvability of boundary value problems for scalar complex valued elliptic PDEs. In particular, the presence of $p$-ellipticity…
