We construct mountain pass critical points of the perimeter functional on sets of fixed volume. For a generic metric, this gives rise to a smooth almost embedded hypersurface with non-zero constant mean curvature. Our work utilizes recent…
We present a proof of the functional equation of the Riemann zeta-function or more precisely the Dirichlet eta-function, which proof seems to be new but follows almost immediately from Malmst\`en's paper ``De integralibus quibusdam…

The theory of Ihara zeta functions is extended to non-compact arithmetic quotients of Bruhat-Tits trees. This new zeta function turns out to be a rational function, despite the infinite-dimensional setting. In general it has zeros and…
In this paper we study a class of Hardy--Sobolev type systems defined in $\mathbb{R}^N$ and coupled by a singular critical Hardy--Sobolev term. The main novelty of this work is that the orders of the singularities are independent and…
Using the Mountain Pass Theorem, we establish the existence of periodic solution for Euler-Lagrange equation. Lagrangian consists of kinetic part (an anisotropic G-function), potential part $K-W$ and a forcing term. We consider two…
A Master equation has been previously obtained which allows the analytic integration of a fairly large family of functions provided that they possess simple properties. Here, the properties of this Master equation are explored, by extending…
Variational models for cohesive fracture are based on the idea that the fracture energy is released gradually as the crack opening grows. Recently, [Conti, Focardi, and Iurlano, Ann. Inst. H. Poincar\'e C Anal. Non Lin\'eaire, 2016]…

A celebrated theorem of M. Heins says that up to post-composition with a M\"obius transformation, a finite Blaschke product is uniquely determined by its critical points. K. Dyakonov suggested that it may interesting to extend this result…
We investigate the intersections of the curve $\mathbb{R}\ni t\mapsto \zeta({1\over 2}+it)$ with the real axis. We show that if the Riemann hypothesis is true, the mean-value of those real values exists and is equal to 1. Moreover, we show…
