We study canonical quantization of a closed Euclidean universe with a cosmological constant and a massless scalar field. The closed Euclidean universe with an ordinary matter state can be matched at a finite radius only with the closed…
A common approach for the numerical simulation of wave propagation on a spatially unbounded domain is to truncate the domain via an artificial boundary, thus forming a finite computational domain with an outer boundary. Absorbing boundary…
We provide upper and lower bounds on the lowest free energy of a classical system at given one-particle density $\rho(x)$. We study both the canonical and grand-canonical cases, assuming the particles interact with a pair potential which…
We consider fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations with quadratic growth in the gradient, such as $$ -F(x,u,Du,D^2u) =\lambda c(x)u+\langle M(x)D u, D u \rangle +h(x) $$ in a bounded domain with a Dirichlet boundary condition, here…

(abbreviated) We study quantized solutions of WdW equation describing a closed FRW universe with a $\Lambda $ term and a set of massless scalar fields. We show that when $\Lambda \ll 1$ in the natural units and the standard $in$-vacuum…
Bayesian model averaging is a procedure to obtain parameter constraints that account for the uncertainty about the correct cosmological model. We use recent cosmological observations and Bayesian model averaging to derive tight limits on…

The recently proposed technique to regularize the divergences of the gravitational action on non-compact space by adding boundary counterterms is studied. We propose prescription for constructing the boundary counterterms which are…
We consider sequences of open Riemannian manifolds with boundary that have no regularity conditions on the boundary. To define a reasonable notion of a limit of such a sequence, we examine "$\delta$ inner regions" which avoid the boundary…

We construct a framework to probe the effect of non-linear structure formation on the large-scale expansion of the universe. We take a bottom-up approach to cosmological modelling by splitting our universe into cells. The matter content…
The differential equations with piecewise constant argument (DEPCAs, for short) is a class of hybrid dynamical systems (combining continuous and discrete). In this paper, under the assumption that the nonlinear term is partially unbounded,…
We build an exact inhomogeneous universe composed of a central flat Friedmann zone up to a small redshift $z_1$, a thick shell made of anisotropic matter, an hyperbolic Friedmann metric up to the scale where dimming galaxies are observed…
In this paper we are concerned with the problem of finding hypersurfaces of constant curvature and prescribed boundary in the Euclidean space, using the theory of fully nonlinear elliptic equations. We prove that if the given data admits a…
We propose a technique for calculating and understanding the eigenvalue distribution of sums of random matrices from the known distribution of the summands. The exact problem is formidably hard. One extreme approximation to the true density…
Non-local equations of motion contain an infinite number of derivatives and commonly appear in a number of string theory models. We review how these equations can be rewritten in the form of a diffusion-like equation with non-linear…
