The real-axis direct solution of the Eliashberg equations for the retarded electron-boson interaction in the half-filling case and in the presence of impurities is obtained for six different symmetries of the order parameter: $s$,…
We examine the equation given by \begin{equation} \label{eq_abstract} -\Delta u + a(x) \cdot \nabla u = u^p \qquad \mbox{in $ \IR^N$,} \end{equation} where $p>1$ and $ a(x)$ is a smooth vector field satisfying some decay conditions. We show…
We verify that the Albanese fibration of the Cartwright-Steger surface is stable, answering a problem left open in [CKY].
The aim of this work is to study homogeneous stable solutions to the thin (or fractional) one-phase free boundary problem. The problem of classifying stable (or minimal) homogeneous solutions in dimensions $n\geq3$ is completely open. In…
The bremsstrahlung cross section for relativistic electrons in a crystal is split into the sum of coherent and incoherent parts (the last is due to a thermal motion of atoms in the crystal). Although the spectrum of incoherent radiation in…
In this paper, as a result of a theorem of Serre on congruence properties, a complete solution is given for an open question (see the text) presented recently by Kim, Koo and Park. Some further questions and results on similar types of…
It has been known for over 100 years that there is a discrepancy between Maxwell's electrodynamics and the idea of a classical electron as the ``atom'' of electricity. This incompatibility is known under the terms 4/3 problem of the…
In this paper we study the linear stability of the relative equilibria for homogeneous and quasihomogeneous potentials. Firstly, in the case the potential is a homogeneous function of degree $-a$, we find that any relative equilibrium of…
This is a nontechnical Perspective Commentary on the recent developments in cuprate STM and their ramifications for the theories of the pseudogap state, focusing on the paper by Hanaguri et al. [Nature 430, 1001 (2004)].
We examine various well known exact solutions available in the literature to investigate the recent criterion obtained in ref. [20] which should be fulfilled by any static and spherically symmetric solution in the state of hydrostatic…
The problem of heterogeneous nucleation of second-phase in alloys in the vicinity of elastic defects is considered. The defect can be a dislocation line or a crack tip residing in a crystalline solid. We use the Ginzburg-Landau equation to…
To describe structural peculiarities in inhomogeneous media caused by the tendency to the close packing of atoms a formalism based on the using of the Riemann geometry methods (which were successfully applied lately to the description of…
We study the equilibrium measure on the two dimensional sphere in the presence of an external field generated by two equal point charges. The support of the equilibrium measure is known as the droplet. Brauchart et al. showed that the…
In this paper we investigate gravitationally bound, spherically symmetric equilibrium configurations consisting of ordinary (polytropic) matter nonminimally coupled to an external chameleon scalar field. We show that this system has static,…
The goal of this work is to present an approach to the homogeneous Boltzmann equation for Maxwellian molecules with a physical collision kernel which allows us to construct unique solutions to the initial value problem in a space of…
The topology and the geometry of a surface play a fundamental role in determining the equilibrium configurations of thin films of liquid crystals. We propose here a theoretical analysis of a recently introduced surface Frank energy, in the…
We consider a spinorial Yamabe-type problem on open manifolds of bounded geometry. The aim is to study the existence of solutions to the associated Euler-Lagrange-equation. We show that under suitable assumptions such a solution exists. As…
An infinite crystal can be constructed by an infinite number of parallel two-dimensional (hkl) crystal planes coupled to each other. For crystals with negligible spin-orbit coupling, we report a rigorous proof of a criterion on the…
This work is motivated by the papers [EG85] and [Ngu15] in which the following two problems are solved. Let $\mathcal{O}$ is a finitely generated $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra that is an integrally closed domain of characteristic zero, consider the…
This paper is concerned with the three-dimensional equations of a simplified hydrodynamic flow modeling the motion of compressible, nematic liquid crystal materials. The authors establish the global existence of classical solution to the…
