We find the complete rational homology for the finite subset spaces of a $d$-dimensional sphere. We also determine the integral homology in top $d$ degrees and obtain a partial description of it in codimension $d$.
Consider an infinite cloud of hard spheres sedimenting in a Stokes flow in the whole space $\mathbb R^d$. Despite many contributions in fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, there is so far no rigorous definition of the associated…
We study the accessory parameter problem for four-punctured spheres from the point of view of modular forms. The value of the accessory parameter giving the uniformization is characterized as the unique zero of a system of equations. This…
We consider integrals of spherical harmonics with Fourier exponents on the sphere $S^n ,\, n \geq 1$. Such transforms arise in the framework of the theory of weighted Radon transforms and vector diffraction in electromagnetic fields theory.…
Large scale simulations of two-dimensional bidisperse granular fluids allow us to determine spatial correlations of slow particles via the four-point structure factor $S_4(q,t)$. Both cases, elastic ($\varepsilon=1$) as well as inelastic…

In this article, we present a new analytic result for a certain single-mass-scale four-loop vacuum (bubble) integral. We also discuss its systematic $\e$-expansion in $d=4-2\e$ as well as $d=3-2\e$ dimensions, the coefficients of which are…

A binary fluid mixture of non-additive hard spheres characterized by a size ratio $\gamma=\sigma_2/\sigma_1<1$ and a non-additivity parameter $\Delta=2\sigma_{12}/(\sigma_1+\sigma_2)-1$ is considered in infinitely many dimensions. From the…
The sphere formula states that in an arbitrary finite abstract simplicial complex, the sum of the Euler characteristic of unit spheres centered at even-dimensional simplices is equal to the sum of the Euler characteristic of unit spheres…
Following the work of Leutheusser [Physica A 127, 667 (1984)], the solution to the Percus-Yevick equation for a seven-dimensional hard-sphere fluid is explicitly found. This allows the derivation of the equation of state for the fluid…
In this paper, the translational addition theorem for spherical functions is employed to exactly calculate the acoustic radiation force produced by an arbitrary shaped beam on a sphere suspended in an inviscid fluid. The radiation force is…
Since molecular clouds form stars, at least some parts of them must be in a state of collapse. However, there is a long-standing debate as to whether that collapse is local, involving only a small fraction of the cloud mass, or global, with…
The necessary conditions to derive the quantum VdW EoS with hard-core repulsion from the quantum partition are discussed. On a plausible example it is shown that an alternative way to account correctly for the 3-rd virial coefficient of…
In this thesis four separate problems in general relativity are considered, divided into two separate themes: coordinate conditions and perfect fluid spheres. Regarding coordinate conditions we present a pedagogical discussion of how the…
We consider geometric and computational measures of complexity for sets of integer vectors, asking for a qualitative difference between $f$-vectors of simplicial and general $d$-polytopes, as well as flag $f$-vectors of $d$-polytopes and…
An equation of state of the hard sphere fluid which is not analytical at the freezing density is proposed and tested. The nonanalytical term is based on the the classical nucleation theory and is able to capture the observed ``anomalous…

Two related approaches, one fairly recent [A. Trokhymchuk et al., J. Chem. Phys. 123, 024501 (2005)] and the other one introduced fifteen years ago [S. B. Yuste and A. Santos, Phys. Rev. A 43, 5418 (1991)], for the derivation of analytical…
