The governing equation is $[\nabla^2+k^2-q(x)]u=0$ in $\R^3$. It is shown that any desired potential $q(x)$, vanishing outside a bounded domain $D$, can be obtained if one embeds into D many small scatterers $q_m(x)$, vanishing outside…
In this paper, an optimal consensus problem with local inequality constraints is studied for a network of single-integrator agents. The goal is that a group of single-integrator a gents rendezvous at the optimal point of the sum of local…
In this paper we study pattern formation for a physical local/nonlocal interaction functional where the local attractive term is given by the $1$-perimeter and the nonlocal repulsive term is the Yukawa (or screened Coulomb) potential. This…
Let $z\in \mathbb{H}:=\{z= x+ i y\in\mathbb{C}: y>0\}$ and $\mathcal{K}(\alpha;z):=\sum_{ (m,n)\in \mathbb{Z} ^2 }\frac{{\left| mz+n \right|}^2}{{{\Im}(z)}}e^{-\pi\alpha\frac{ \left|mz+n\right|^2}{\Im(z)}}.$ In this paper, we characterize…
A way to improve the accuracy of the spectral properties in density functional theory (DFT) is to impose constraints on the effective, Kohn-Sham (KS), local potential [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 136}, 224109 (2012)]. As illustrated, a convenient…
In previous papers we investigated so-called sum of translates functions $F({\mathbf{x}},t):=J(t)+\sum_{j=1}^n \nu_j K(t-x_j)$, where $J:[0,1]\to \underline{\mathbb{R}}:={\mathbb{R}}\cup\{-\infty\}$ is a "sufficiently nondegenerate" and…
We are concerned with the following constrained minimization problem: $$e(a_{1},a_{2},\beta) := \inf\left\{E_{a_{1},a_{2},\beta}(u_{1},u_{2}): \|u_{1}\|_{L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{3})} = \|u_{2}\|_{L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{3})} = 1\right\},$$ where…
Inspired by Lin-Pan-Wang (Comm. Pure Appl. Math., 65(6): 833-888, 2012), we continue to study the corresponding time-independent case of the Keller-Rubinstein-Sternberg problem. To be precise, we explore the asymptotic behavior of…
Recent decades have provided a host of examples and applications motivating the study of nonlocal differential operators. We discuss a class of such operators acting on bounded domains, focusing on those with integrable kernels having…
In this paper, we study local regularity properties of minimizers of nonlocal variational functionals with variable exponents and weak solutions to the corresponding Euler--Lagrange equations. We show that weak solutions are locally bounded…
