We consider 3-dimensional hyperbolic cone-manifolds, singular along infinite lines, which are ``convex co-compact'' in a natural sense. We prove an infinitesimal rigidity statement when the angle around the singular lines is less than…

In this paper we suggest new effective criteria for the density property. This enables us to give a trivial proof of the original Anders\'en-Lempert result and to establish (almost free of charge) the algebraic density property for all…

Unparticle $\U$ with scaling dimension $d_\U$ has peculiar thermal properties due to its unique phase space structure. We find that the equation of state parameter $\omega_\U$, the ratio of pressure to energy density, is given by $1/(2d_\U…

Consider the Dirichlet-Laplacian in $\Omega:= (0,L)\times (0,H)$ and choose another open set $\omega\subset \Omega$. The estimate $0<C_{\omega}\leq R_{\omega}(u):=\frac{\Vert u\Vert^{2}_{L^{2}(\omega)}}{\Vert u\Vert^{2}_{L^{2}(\Omega)}}\leq…

In this note we formulate a sufficient condition for the quasiconvexity at $x \mapsto \lambda x$ of certain functionals $I(u)$ which model the stored-energy of elastic materials subject to a deformation $u$. The materials we consider may…

Let $\Omega $ be an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, and let $p,\, q:\Omega \rightarrow \left[ 1,\infty \right] $ be measurable functions. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the embedding of the variable exponent space…

For $s\in(0,1)$ and an open bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, we prove existence and uniqueness of absolute minimisers of the supremal functional $$E_\infty(u)=\|(-\Delta)^s u\|_{L^\infty(\mathbb R^n)},$$ where $(-\Delta)^s$ is the…

It has been found in numerical experiments that when one removes a sector from an elastic sheet and glues the edges of the sector back together, the resulting configuration is radially symmetric and nearly conical. We make a rigorous…

We present, within Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory calculations, a quantitative method to identify and assess the partitioning of a large quantum mechanical system into fragments. We then show how within this framework simple…

The paper deals with a nontrivial density result for $C^m(\overline{\Omega})$ functions, with $m\in{\mathbb N}\cup\{\infty\}$, in the space $$W^{k,\ell,p}(\Omega;\Gamma)= \left\{u\in W^{k,p}(\Omega): u_{|\Gamma}\in…

We prove that every complete non-compact manifold of finite volume contains a (possibly non-compact) minimal hypersurface of finite volume. The main tool is the following result of independent interest: if a region $U$ can be swept out by a…

A new approach to Nori's weak Lefschetz theorem is described. The new approach, which involves the dbar-method, avoids moving arguments and gives much stronger results. In particular, it is proved that if X and Y are connected smooth…

We prove that the Galerkin finite element solution $u_h$ of the Laplace equation in a convex polyhedron $\varOmega$, with a quasi-uniform tetrahedral partition of the domain and with finite elements of polynomial degree $r\ge 1$, satisfies…

Partial localization is the phenomenon of self-aggregation of mass into high-density structures that are thin in one direction and extended in the others. We give a detailed study of an energy functional that arises in a simplified model…

The close packing density of log-normal and bimodal distributed, surface-adsorbed particles or discs in 2D is studied by numerical simulation. For small spread in particle size, the system orders in a polycrystalline structure of hexagonal…
