In this paper, we revisit approximation properties of piecewise polynomial spaces, which contain more than ${\cal P}_{r-1}$ but not ${\cal P}_r$. We develop more accurate upper and lower error bounds that are sharper than those used in…

Littlewood polynomials are polynomials with each of their coefficients in {-1,1}. A sequence of Littlewood polynomials that satisfies a remarkable flatness property on the unit circle of the complex plane is given by the Rudin-Shapiro…

We generalize the random coding argument of stabilizer codes and derive a lower bound on the quantum capacity of an arbitrary discrete memoryless quantum channel. For the depolarizing channel, our lower bound coincides with that obtained by…

We study the presence of abelian discrete symmetries in globally consistent orientifold compactifications based on rational conformal field theory. We extend previous work [1] by allowing the discrete symmetries to be a linear combination…

We prove new $\ell ^{p} (\mathbb Z ^{d})$ bounds for discrete spherical averages in dimensions $ d \geq 5$. We focus on the case of lacunary radii, first for general lacunary radii, and then for certain kinds of highly composite choices of…

We derive upper bounds on the difference between the orthogonal projections of a smooth function $u$ onto two finite element spaces that are nearby, in the sense that the support of every shape function belonging to one but not both of the…

In this article, we investigate the regularity for certain elliptic systems without a $L^2$-antisymmetric structure. As applications, we prove some $\epsilon$-regularity theorems for weakly harmonic maps from the unit ball $B= B(m) \subset…

We study Euclidean designs from the viewpoint of the potential energy. For a finite set in Euclidean space, We formulate a linear programming bound for the potential energy by applying harmonic analysis on a sphere. We also introduce the…

If a (weighted) spherical design is defined as an integration (cubature) rule for a unitarily invariant space P of polynomials (on the sphere), then any unitary image of it is also such a spherical design. It therefore follows that such…

A polynomial identity testing algorithm must determine whether an input polynomial (given for instance by an arithmetic circuit) is identically equal to 0. In this paper, we show that a deterministic black-box identity testing algorithm for…

We obtain a sharp estimate on the norm of the differential of a harmonic map from the unit disc $\mathbb D$ in $\mathbb C$ into the unit ball $\mathbb B^n$ in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$, at any point where the map is conformal. In dimension…

A spherical $L$-code, where $L \subseteq [-1,\infty)$, consists of unit vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$ whose pairwise inner products are contained in $L$. Determining the maximum cardinality $N_L(d)$ of an $L$-code in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a…

For compact submanifolds in Euclidean and Spherical space forms with Ricci curvature bounded below by a function $\alpha(n,k,H,c)$ of mean curvature, we prove that the submanifold is either isometric to the Einstein Clifford torus, or a…

We consider min-max optimization problems for polynomial functions, where a multivariate polynomial is maximized with respect to a subset of variables, and the resulting maximal value is minimized with respect to the remaining variables.…

We derive a universal soft theorem for every scattering amplitude with at least one massless particle in an arbitrary theory of scalars. Our results follow from the geometry of field space and are valid for any choice of mass spectrum,…

Let $K$ be a centrally symmetric spherical and simplicial polytope, whose vertices form a $\frac{1}{4n}-$net in the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove a uniform lower bound on the norms of all hyperplane projections $P: X \to X$, where…

This work is an extension of a result given by Kuttler and Sigillito (SIAM Rev $10$:$368-370$, $1968$) on a star-shaped bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Let $\Omega$ be a star-shaped bounded domain in a hypersurface of revolution, having…

The problem of a particle localized in a ultra-short potential in one dimension is considered. By proposing a general solution to Schrodinger;s equation we show that the energy spectra and the probability of the particle have definite…
