This paper is concerned with minimizing a sum of rational functions over a compact set of high-dimension. Our approach relies on the second Lasserre's hierarchy (also known as the upper bounds hierarchy) formulated on the pushforward…

We consider an optimal control problem subject to a semilinear elliptic PDE together with its variational discretization. We provide a condition which allows to decide whether a solution of the necessary first order conditions is a global…

Spherical $t$-designs are finite point sets on the unit sphere that enable exact integration of polynomials of degree at most $t$ via equal-weight quadrature. This concept has recently been extended to spherical $t$-design curves by the use…

We consider the problem of minimising the $k$-th eigenvalue of the Laplacian with some prescribed boundary condition over collections of convex domains of prescribed perimeter or diameter. It is known that these minimisation problems are…

We consider the general question of when all orbits under the unitary action of a finite group give a complex spherical design. Those orbits which have large stabilisers are then good candidates for being optimal complex spherical designs.…

We associate a sequence of variational eigenvalues to any Radon measure on a compact Riemannian manifold. For particular choices of measures, we recover the Laplace, Steklov and other classical eigenvalue problems. In the first part of the…

For a smooth $k$-dimensional submanifold $\Sigma$ of a $d$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $M$, we extend the $L^p(\Sigma)$ restriction bounds of Burq-G\'erard-Tzvetkov -- originally proved for individual Laplace--Beltrami…

In dimensions greater than or equal to three, we establish global uniqueness and obtain reconstruction in the Calderon problem for the Schrodinger equation with certain singular potentials. The potentials considered are conormal of order…

We study optimal dimensionless inequalities $$ \|f\|_{U^k} \leq \|f\|_{\ell^{p_{k,n}}} $$ that hold for all functions $f\colon\mathbb{Z}^d\to\mathbb{C}$ supported in $\{0,1,\ldots,n-1\}^d$ and estimates $$ \|1_A\|_{U^k}^{2^k}\leq…

Consider the differential equation $y'=F(x,y)$. We determine the weakest possible upper bound on $|F(x,y)-F(x,z)|$ which guarantees that this equation has for all initial values a unique solution, which exists globally.

For a family of weight functions invariant under a finite reflection group, the boundedness of a maximal function on the unit sphere is established and used to prove a multiplier theorem for the orthogonal expansions with respect to the…

In this paper, we study spherical $T$-designs and their harmonic strength $\text{Hst}(X)$ on the unit circle $S^1$. For any finite set $T\subset\mathbb{N}$, we constructively demonstrate the existence of a finite design $X$ such that…

Let $(X, \omega, J)$ be a toric variety of dimension $2n$ determined by a Delzant polytope $P$. As indicated in [40], $X$ admits a natural mixed polarization $\mathcal{P}_{k}$, induced by the action of a subtorus $T^{k}$. In this paper, we…

The thesis concentrates on two problems in discrete geometry, whose solutions are obtained by analytic, probabilistic and combinatoric tools. The first chapter deals with the strong polarization problem. This states that for any sequence…
