We review various attempts to localize the discrete spectra of semirelativistic Hamiltonians of the form H = \beta \sqrt{m^2 + p^2} + V(r) (w.l.o.g. in three spatial dimensions) as entering, for instance, in the spinless Salpeter equation.…

We consider the small time semi-classical limit for nonlinear Schrodinger equations with defocusing, smooth, nonlinearity. For a super-cubic nonlinearity, the limiting system is not directly hyperbolic, due to the presence of vacuum. To…
