Structure and properties of families of critical points for classes of functions $W(z,\bar{z})$ obeying the elliptic Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation $E(1/2,1/2)$ are studied. General variational and differential equations governing the…

Let X_1 ,..., X_n be a collection of binary valued random variables and let f : {0,1}^n -> R be a Lipschitz function. Under a negative dependence hypothesis known as the {\em strong Rayleigh} condition, we show that f - E f satisfies a…

We study universal approximation of continuous functionals on compact subsets of products of Hilbert spaces. We prove that any such functional can be uniformly approximated by models that first take finitely many continuous linear…

An important consequence of the Hahn-Banach Theorem says that on any locally convex Hausdorff topological space $X$, there are sufficiently many continuous linear functionals to separate points of $X$. In the paper, we establish a `local'…

We say that a metric space $(X,d)$ possesses the \emph{Banach Fixed Point Property (BFPP)} if every contraction $f:X\to X$ has a fixed point. The Banach Fixed Point Theorem says that every complete metric space has the BFPP. However, E.…

In this work the following energy is considered $I(u)=\int\limits_B{\frac{1}{2}|\nabla u|^2+\rho(\det\nabla u)\;dx},$ where $B\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ denotes the unit ball, $u\in W^{1,2}(B,\mathbb{R}^2),$ and…

In this paper we establish some new results concerning the Cauchy-Peano problem in Banach spaces. Firstly, we prove that if a Banach space $E$ admits a fundamental biorthogonal system, then there exists a continuous vector field $f\colon…

It is shown that for each finite number of Dirac measures supported at points $s_n$ in three-dimensional Euclidean space, with given amplitudes $a_n$, there exists a unique real-valued Lipschitz function $u$, vanishing at infinity, which…

We investigate the controversial issue of the existence of universality classes describing critical phenomena in three-dimensional statistical systems characterized by a matrix order parameter with symmetry O(2)xO(N) and symmetry-breaking…

A quantum field theory has finite zero-point energy if the sum over all boson modes $b$ of the $n$th power of the boson mass $ m_b^n $ equals the sum over all fermion modes $f$ of the $n$th power of the fermion mass $ m_f^n $ for $n= 0$, 2,…

Previous results about the non trivial solution of the $\Phi^4$-equations of motion for the Green's functions in the Euclidean\ space (of $0\leq r\leq 4$ dimensions) in the Wightman Quantum Field theory framework, are reviewed in the 0 -…

In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of fixed points of a class of mappings defined on complete, (sequentially compact) cone metric spaces, without continuity conditions and depending on another function.

We discuss the phase diagram and the universal scaling functions of attractive Fermi gases at finite imbalance. The existence of a quantum multicritical point for the unitary gas at vanishing chemical potential $\mu$ and effective magnetic…

In this paper, given two Banach spaces $X, Y$ and a $C^1$ functional $\Phi:X\times Y\to {\bf R}$, under general assumptions, we show that either $\Phi$ has a saddle-point in $X\times Y$ or, for each convex and dense set $S\subseteq Y$,…

Using $\Gamma$-convergence, we study the Cahn-Hilliard problem with interface width parameter $\varepsilon > 0$ for phase transitions on manifolds with conical singularities. We prove that minimizers of the corresponding energy functional…

We derive completeness criteria for sequences of functions of the form $% f(x\lambda_{n})$, where $\lambda_{n}$ is the $nth$ zero of a suitably chosen entire function. Using these criteria, we construct systems of nonorthogonal…

In this paper we fully characterize the sequentially weakly lower semicontinuity of the parameter-depending energy functional associated with the critical Kirchhoff problem. We also establish sufficient criteria with respect to the…

The relevance of zero-energy functions, coming from zero-energy modes and present in the structure of bosonic Green's functions, is often underestimated. Usually, their values are fixed by assuming the ergodicity of the dynamics, but it can…

We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of the functionals $F_n(u):= || f(\cdot,u(\cdot),Du(\cdot))||_{p_n(\cdot)}$ and $\mathcal{F}_n(u):= \int_{\Omega} \frac{1}{p_n(x)} f^{p_n(x)}(x,u(x),Du(x))dx$ defined on $X\in \{L^1(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^d),…
