We consider a one-dimensional model of localization based on the Witten Hamiltonian of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The low energy spectral properties are reviewed and compared with those of other models with off-diagonal disorder.…
We argue that topological compactons (solitons with compact support) may be quite common objects if $k$-fields, i.e., fields with nonstandard kinetic term, are considered, by showing that even for models with well-behaved potentials the…

Given a charge and current distribution with compact support, the associated potentials and fields are generally not integrable in the classical sense. However, it is convenient to be able to define their Fourier transform in order to…
We extend a classical result of Caughran/Schwartz and another recent result of Gunatillake by showing that if D is a bounded, convex domain in n-dimensional complex space, m is a holomorphic function on D and bounded away from zero toward…
Warped time-frequency systems have recently been introduced as a class of structured continuous frames for functions on the real line. Herein, we generalize this framework to the setting of functions of arbitrary dimensionality. After…
Given $1<p<N$ and two measurable functions $V(r)\geq 0$ and $K(r)>0$, $r>0$, we define the weighted spaces \[ W=\left\{ u\in D^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N):\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}V\left(\left|x\right|\right) \left|u\right|^p dx<\infty \right\} , \quad…
The exponential localization of Wannier functions in two or three dimensions is proven for all insulators that display time-reversal symmetry, settling a long-standing conjecture. Our proof relies on the equivalence between the existence of…
In the field of radial basis functions mathematicians have been endeavouring to find infinitely differentiable and compactly supported radial functions. This kind of functions is extremely important. One of the reasons is that its error…
