We study the Bloch dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate of cold atoms by using the formalism of the discrete nonlinear Schroedinger equation. Depending on the static force magnitudes the system is shown to exhibit two qualitatively…
The (global) Lipschitz smoothness condition is crucial in establishing the convergence theory for most optimization methods. Unfortunately, most machine learning and signal processing problems are not Lipschitz smooth. This motivates us to…
Quasi-factorization-type inequalities for the relative entropy have recently proven to be fundamental in modern proofs of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for quantum spin systems. In this paper, we show some results of weak…

We consider here solutions of the nonlinear fractional Schr\"odinger equation $$\epsilon^{2s}(-\Delta)^s u+V(x)u=u^p.$$ We show that concentration points must be critical points for $V$. We also prove that, if the potential $V$ is coercive…

We prove essential self-adjointness for semi-bounded below magnetic Schr\"odinger operators on complete Riemannian manifolds with a given positive smooth measure which is fixed independently of the metric. Some singularities of the scalar…
This paper is devoted to the study of the existence of positive and bounded solutions for a Schr\"odinger type equation defined on the entire Euclidean space, involving a general integro-differential operator. We consider the case where the…

We prove a variant of the so-called bilinear embedding theorem for operators in divergence form with complex coefficients and with nonnegative locally integrable potentials, subject to mixed boundary conditions, and acting on arbitrary open…
We study a variational model of magnetoelasticity both in the static and in the quasistatic setting. The model features a mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation, as magnetizations are defined on the deformed configuration in the actual…
We develop a sharp boundary trace theory in arbitrary bounded Lipschitz domains which, in contrast to classical results, allows "forbidden" endpoints and permits the consideration of functions exhibiting very limited regularity. This is…
We give new bounds on the cosystolic expansion constants of several families of high dimensional expanders, and the known coboundary expansion constants of order complexes of homogeneous geometric lattices, including the spherical building…
We obtain conditions for the differentiability of weak solutions for a second-order uniformly elliptic equation in divergence form with a homogeneous co-normal boundary condition. The modulus of continuity for the coefficients is assumed to…
We consider the $3D$ spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for (true) hard and moderately soft potentials. We assume that the initial condition is a probability measure with finite energy and is not a Dirac mass. For hard potentials, we…
We study the hydrodynamic and the hydrostatic behavior of the Simple Symmetric Exclusion Process with \emph{slow boundary}. The term \emph{slow boundary} means that particles can be born or die at the boundary sites, at a rate proportional…
