We prove a sharp Fourier extension inequality on the circle for the Tomas-Stein exponent for functions whose spectrum $\{\pm \lambda_n\}$ satisfies $\lambda_{n+1}>3 \lambda_{n}$.
The quantum metric encodes the geometric structure of Bloch wave functions and governs a wide range of physical responses. Its Brillouin-zone integral, the quantum weight, appears in the structure factor and provides lower bounds on…
Let $(\mathcal{A},\mathrm{tr})$ be a von Neumann algebra with a faithful, normal trace $\mathrm{tr}:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}.$ For each $a\in\mathcal{A},$ define \[…
This is an expository account of Balaban's approach to the renormalization group. The method is illustrated with a treatment of the ultraviolet problem for the scalar phi^4 model on a toroidal lattice in dimension d=3. In this third paper…
Group synchronization asks to recover group elements from their pairwise measurements. It has found numerous applications across various scientific disciplines. In this work, we focus on orthogonal and permutation group synchronization…
On compact Riemannian manifolds with a large isometry group we investigate the invariant spectrum of the ordinary Laplacian. For either a toric Kaehler metric, or a rotationally-symmetric metric on the sphere, we produce upper bounds for…
A classical theorem of Colin de Verdi\`ere shows that on a closed manifold of fixed topology one can prescribe an arbitrary finite portion of the Laplace-Beltrami spectrum (including multiplicities, subject to the usual topological…
This paper derives an improved sphere-packing (ISP) bound for finite-length codes whose transmission takes place over symmetric memoryless channels. We first review classical results, i.e., the 1959 sphere-packing (SP59) bound of Shannon…
We prove the uniform lower bound for the difference $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ between first two eigenvalues of the fractional Schr\"odinger operator, which is related to the Feynman-Kac semigroup of the symmetric $\alpha$-stable process…
For any vector bundle, we define an inverse system of spectra. In the case of a trivial bundle over a point, the homotopy groups of the filtration quotients give rise to the stable EHP spectral sequence, as was shown by Mahowald. The limit…
Spectral clustering has become one of the most widely used clustering techniques when the structure of the individual clusters is non-convex or highly anisotropic. Yet, despite its immense popularity, there exists fairly little theory about…
This paper is concerned with orthonormal systems in real intervals, given with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. More specifically, our interest is in systems with a skew-symmetric differentiation matrix (this excludes orthonormal…
In this paper, we give an easy proof of the main results of Andrews and Clutterbuck's paper [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 24 (2011), no. 3, 899--916], which gives both a sharp lower bound for the spectral gap of a Schr\"oinger operator and a sharp…
We prove bounds for a class of unital homomorphisms arising in the study of spectral sets, by involving extremal functions and vectors. These are used to recover three celebrated results on spectral constants by Crouzeix--Palencia,…
Let $G$ be the interior domain of a piecewise analytic Jordan curve without cusps. Let $\{p_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ be the sequence of polynomials that are orthonormal over $G$ with respect to the area measure, with each $p_n$ having leading…
We study the computational phase transition in a multi-frequency group synchronization problem, where pairwise relative measurements of group elements are observed across multiple frequency channels and corrupted by Gaussian noise. Using…
Spectral clustering is a broad class of clustering procedures in which an intractable combinatorial optimization formulation of clustering is "relaxed" into a tractable eigenvector problem, and in which the relaxed solution is subsequently…
It is well known that uniform resolvent estimates imply spectral cluster estimates. We show that the converse is also true in some cases. In particular, the universal spectral cluster estimates of Sogge \cite{MR930395} for the…
We investigate the geometric implications of spectral curvature bounds, extending classical rigidity results in scalar curvature geometry to the spectral setting. By systematically employing the warped $\mu$-bubble method, we show…
Spectral methods are now common in the solution of ordinary differential eigenvalue problems in a wide variety of fields, such as in the computation of black hole quasinormal modes. Most of these spectral codes are based on standard…
