The approximate Carath\'eodory problem in general form is as follows: Given two symmetric convex bodies $P,Q \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$, a parameter $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\mathbf{z} \in \textrm{conv}(X)$ with $X \subseteq P$, find…

In this note, pointwise best-possible (lower and upper) bounds on the set of copulas with a given value of the Gini's gamma coefficient are established. It is shown that, unlike the best-possible bounds on the set of copulas with a given…

This work provides a brief history of determinations of the pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) coupling constant from $\pi N$ and $N N$ data. From robust analyses of twenty reported values of the charged-pion coupling constant, exhibiting sizeable…
The problem of finding upper bounds for L-functions at the edge of the critical strip has a long and interesting history. Here, the situation for classical L-functions such as Dirichlet L-functions is relatively well understood. The reason…

Let $\pi S(t)$ denote the argument of the Riemann zeta-function at the point $\frac12+it$. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we sharpen the constant in the best currently known bounds for $S(t)$ and for the change of $S(t)$ in intervals. We…
An approximate local potential for the residual pi+ pi+ interaction is computed. We use an O(a**2) improved action on a coarse 9x9x9x13 lattice with approximately a=0.4fm. The results present a continuation of previous work: Increasing the…
We use the very forward neutron energy spectra measured by the Large Hadron Collider forward (LHCf) experiment at 7 TeV to extract the $\pi^+ p$ total cross section at centre-of-mass energies in the range 2.3$-$3.5 TeV. To do this we have…
Two-point functions related to the pion weak decay constant f_\pi are calculated from the generating functional of chiral perturbation theory in the mean-field approximation and the heavy-baryon limit. The aim is to demonstrate that Lorentz…
Recent experimental data on tau decays are used to reconstruct the difference in hadronic spectral densities with vector and axial-vector quantum numbers. The saturation of Das-Mathur-Okubo and Weinberg sum rules is studied. Two methods of…
Many modern theories predict that the fundamental constants depend on time, position, or the local density of matter. We develop a spectroscopic method for pulsed beams of cold molecules, and use it to measure the frequencies of microwave…
The strong coupling constant alpha_s and its dependence on the momentum scale is determined from the p_T dependence of the inclusive jet cross section in ppbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV measured with the D0 experiment. The jet…

Transient {\it time-domain resonances} found recently in time-dependent solutions to Schr\"{o}dinger's equation are used to investigate the issue of the tunneling time in rectangular potential barriers. In general, a time frequency analysis…
Probabilities of crossing on same-spin clusters, seen as order parameters, have been introduced recently for the critical 2d Ising model by Langlands, Lewis and Saint-Aubin. We extend Cardy's ideas, introduced for percolation, to obtain an…

Accurate fits to $pp$ and $\bar pp$ cross section data up to Tevatron energies, incorporating the constraints imposed by analyticity and unitarity, successfully predict the results of recent LHC and cosmic ray measurements, and suggest that…
