We establish several nonuniqueness results for the problem of finding complete conformal metrics with constant (fourth-order) $Q$-curvature on compact and noncompact manifolds of dimension $\geq5$. Infinitely many branches of metrics with…
Recent observations seem to suggest that our Universe is accelerating implying that it is dominated by a fluid whose equation of state is negative. Quintessence is a possible explanation. In particular, the concept of tracking solutions…

In the present paper, we consider the majorization theorem (also known as Karamata's inequality) and the respective minima of the majorization (the so-called M-sets) for f-energy potentials of $m$-point configurations on the unit sphere. In…
Minimal cubature rules of degree $4n-1$ for the weight functions $$ W_{\a,\b,\pm \frac12}(x,y) = |x+y|^{2\a+1} |x-y|^{2\b+1} ((1-x^2)(1-y^2))^{\pm \frac12} $$ on $[-1,1]^2$ are constructed explicitly and are shown to be closed related to…
The present work develops certain analytical tools required to construct and compute invariant kernels on the space of complex covariance matrices. The main result is the $\mathrm{L}^1$--Godement theorem, which states that any invariant…
If $\Omega \subset \R^n$ is a smooth bounded domain and $q \in (0, \frac{n}{n-1})$ we consider the Poincare-Sobolev inequality \[ c \Bigl(\int_{\Omega} \abs{u}^\frac{n}{n-1}\Bigr)^{1-\frac{1}{n}} \le \int_{\Omega} \abs{Du}, \] for every $u…
This paper establishes a bivariate Hardy-Sobolev inequality. Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ ($N \geq 3$) be an open domain, $s \in (0,2)$, $\alpha > 1$, $\beta > 1$ with $\alpha + \beta = 2^*(s)$, and $\kappa \in \mathbb{R}$. For any…
We study the Hardy inequality when the singularity is placed on the boundary of a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that satisfies both an interior and exterior ball condition at the singularity. We obtain the sharp Hardy constant $n^2/4$ in…
We study the scattering theory for the Schr\"odinger and wave equations with rough potentials in a scale of homogeneous Sobolev spaces. The first half of the paper concerns with an inverse-square potential in both of subcritical and…
Let $(M, g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n \geq 3$, and let $h \in C^1(M)$ be such that the operator $\Delta_g + h$ is coercive. Fix $x_0 \in M$ and $s \in (0, 2)$. We obtain uniform bounds on the solutions of the critical…
We analyze univariate oscillatory integrals defined on the real line for functions from the standard Sobolev space $H^s({\mathbb{R}})$ and from the space $C^s({\mathbb{R}})$ with an arbitrary integer $s\ge1$. We find tight upper and lower…
We investigate three related and important problems connected to machine learning: approximating a submodular function everywhere, learning a submodular function (in a PAC-like setting [53]), and constrained minimization of submodular…
We survey some classical inequalities due to Maz'ya relating isocapacitary inequalities with their functional and isoperimetric counterparts in a measure-metric space setting, and extend Maz'ya's lower bound for the $q$-capacity ($q>1$) in…
We prove a regularity result for unit volume conformal metrics with integral scalar curvature bounds for $p>n/2$ and first eigenvalue of $\Delta$ bounded from below by a constant $B > \Lambda_1(S^n,[g_{st.}]).$
Motivated by uncertainty quantification of complex systems, we aim at finding quadrature formulas of the form $\int_a^b f(x) d\mu(x) = \sum_{i=1}^n w_i f(x_i)$ where $f$ belongs to $H^1(\mu)$. Here, $\mu$ belongs to a class of continuous…
The nodes of certain minimal cubature rule are real common zeros of a set of orthogonal polynomials of degree $n$. They often consist of a well distributed set of points and interpolation polynomials based on them have desired convergence…
We study the problem of maximizing a function that is approximately submodular under a cardinality constraint. Approximate submodularity implicitly appears in a wide range of applications as in many cases errors in evaluation of a…
We construct an interpolatory high-order cubature rule to compute integrals of smooth functions over self-affine sets with respect to an invariant measure. The main difficulty is the computation of the cubature weights, which we…
