The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller $n$-dimensional volume. It is known that the answer to this problem is affirmative if…

This paper develops the use of wavelets as a basis set for the solution of physical problems exhibiting behavior over wide-ranges in length scale. In a simple diagrammatic language, this article reviews both the mathematical underpinnings…

We consider the Dirichlet problem in a wedge for parabolic equation whose coefficients are measurable function of t. We obtain coercive estimates in weighted $L_{p,q}$-spaces. The concept of "critical exponent" introduced in the paper plays…

This paper investigates lower bounds on the number of zeros and poles of a general Dirichlet series in a disk of radius $r$ and gives, as a consequence, an affirmative answer to an open problem of Bombieri and Perelli on the bound.…

Let $ \{L_n\}_{n\ge 0} $ be the sequence of Lucas numbers given by $ L_0=2, ~ L_1=1 $ and $ L_{n+2}=L_{n+1}+L_n $ for all $ n\ge 0 $. In the first paper, for an integer $d\geq 2$ which is square-free, we show that there is at most one value…

We investigate the absorption cross section of planar scalar massless waves impinging on spherically symmetric black holes which are solutions of the novel 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravity. Besides the mass of the black hole, the…

We study a solution of Einstein's equations that describes a straight cosmic string with a variable angular deficit, starting with a $2 \pi$ deficit at the core. We show that the coordinate singularity associated to this defect can be…

Postulating the identification of $\psi^*(x, t) \psi(x,t)$ with a physical probability density is unsatisfactory conceptually and overly limited practically. For electrons, there is a simple, calculable relativistic correction proportional…

We study the Dirichlet problem for the Lagrangian phase operator, in both the real and complex setting. Our main result states that if $\Omega$ is a compact domain in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or $\mathbb{C}^n$, then there exists a solution to the…

Suppose that $\langle f_n \rangle$ is a sequence of polynomials, $\langle f_n^{(k)}(0)\rangle$ converges for every non-negative integer $k$, and that the limit is not $0$ for some $k$. It is shown that if all the zeros of $f_1, f_2, \dots$…

Wavelets are a powerful new mathematical tool which offers the possibility to treat in a natural way quantities characterized by several length scales. In this article we will show how wavelets can be used to solve partial differential…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a family of new non-collision periodic solutions for the classical Newtonian $n$-body problems. In our assumption, the $n=2l\geq4$ particles are invariant under the dihedral rotation group $D_l$ in…

The Busemann-Petty problem asks whether origin-symmetric convex bodies in real Euclidean n-space with smaller central hyperplane sections necessarily have smaller volume. The answer is affirmative for n less or equal to 4 and negative if n…

In the cosmos, any two bodies share a gravitational attraction. When in proximity to one another in empty space, their motions can be modeled by Newtonian gravity. Newton found their orbits when the two bodies are infinitely small, the…

We prove the existence, uniqueness, and sharp bilateral pointwise estimates for positive bounded solutions to the Lane--Emden type problem \[ \begin{cases} L u = \sum\limits_{i=1}^{m}\sigma_{i} u^{q_{i}}+\sigma_0, \quad u\geq0 & \text{in }…

For a planar point-set $P$, let D(P) be the minimum number of pairwise-disjoint empty disks such that each point in $P$ lies on the boundary of some disk. Further define D(n) as the maximum of D(P) over all n-element point sets. Hosono and…

We focus on the classification of positive solutions to $(-\Delta)^s u=\frac{x_n^{\alpha}}{u^\gamma}$ in the half space with $\gamma>0$, subject to the Dirichlet condition. We show that when $-2s<\alpha<(\gamma-1)s$, all positive solutions…

Penrose et al. investigated the physical incoherence of the spacetime with negative mass via the bending of light. Precise estimates of time-delay of null geodesics were needed and played a pivotal role in their proof. In this paper, we…
