The two-point function of exactly marginal operators leads to a universal contribution to the trace anomaly in even dimensions. We study aspects of this trace anomaly, emphasizing its interpretation as a sigma model, whose target space M is…
We consider a class of weighted harmonic functions in the open upper half-plane known as $\alpha$-harmonic functions. Of particular interest is the uniqueness problem for such functions subject to a vanishing Dirichlet boundary value on the…
Some preliminaries and basic facts regarding unbounded Wiener-Hopf operators (WH) are provided. WH with rational symbols are studied in detail showing that they are densely defined closed and have finite dimensional kernels and deficiency…
We investigate 3d $\mathscr{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories on $S^1 \times S^2$ and the corresponding 2d effective field theories arising in the limit of small ratio of radii, $\beta=R_{S^1}/R_{S^2}\to 0$. We evaluate the exact…
The harmonic action functional allows a natural generalisation to semi-Riemannian supergeometry, referred to as superharmonic action, which resembles the supersymmetric sigma models studied in high energy physics. We show that Killing…
Using the ideas of supersymmetry and shape invariance we show that the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a wide class of noncentral potentials can be obtained in a closed form by the operator method. This generalization considerably extends…
The asymptotic behavior of an anisotropic Cahn-Hilliard functional with prescribed mass and Dirichlet boundary condition is studied when the parameter epsilon that determines the width of the transition layers tends to zero. The double-well…
Uniform asymptotic expansions involving exponential and Airy functions are obtained for Laguerre polynomials $L_{n}^{(\alpha)}(x)$, as well as complementary confluent hypergeometric functions. The expansions are valid for $n$ large and…
Analysis of non-compact manifolds almost always requires some controlled behavior at infinity. Without such, one neither can show, nor expect, strong properties. On the other hand, such assumptions restrict the possible applications and…
Let $X$ be a noncomplete metric space satisfying the usual (local) assumptions of a doubling property and a Poincar\'e inequality. We study extensions of Newtonian Sobolev functions to the completion $\widehat{X}$ of $X$ and use them to…
We prove various results connecting structural or algebraic properties of graphs and groups to conditions on their spaces of harmonic functions. In particular: we show that a group with a finitely supported symmetric measure has a…
We study two dimensional $\mathcal{N} = (2, 2)$ Landau-Ginzburg models with tensor valued superfields with the aim of constructing large central charge superconformal field theories which are solvable using large $N$ techniques. We…
In a recent paper by Iglesias, Rumpf and Scherzer (Found. Comput. Math. 18(4), 2018) a variational model for deformations matching a pair of shapes given as level set functions was proposed. Its main feature is the presence of anisotropic…
In this work we develop a systematic geometric approach to study fully nonlinear elliptic equations with singular absorption terms as well as their related free boundary problems. The magnitude of the singularity is measured by a negative…
In this article we give an overview on some recent development of Littlewood-Paley theory for Schr\"odinger operators. We extend the Littlewood-Paley theory for special potentials considered in the authors' previous work. We elaborate our…
In this work, we investigate a coordinate space structure function ${\cal E}(z^2m^2,\lambda)$ in the 2D $U(N)$ Gross-Neveu model to the next-to-leading order in the large-$N$ expansion. We analytically perform the twist expansion in the…
In this paper, we are devoted to studying the positive solutions of the following higher order Hardy-H\'enon equation $$ (-\Delta)^{m}u=|x|^{\alpha}u^{p} \quad\mbox{in}~ B_{1}\setminus\{0\}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n} $$ with an isolated…

The N-extended self-dual supergravity in the ultra-hyperbolic four-dimensional spacetime of kleinian signature (2+2) is given in the N-extended harmonic superspace. We reformulate the on-shell N-extended self-dual supergravity constraints…
It is well known that sets of $p$-capacity zero are removable for bounded $p$-harmonic functions, but on metric spaces there are examples of removable sets of positive capacity. In this paper, we show that this can happen even on unweighted…
