In this paper, we prove the existence of nontrivial contractible domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{S}^{d}$, $d\geq2$, such that the overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\varepsilon\Delta_{g} u +u-u^{p}=0 &\mbox{in…

In a previous work (Int. Math. Res. Notices 13 (2010) 2394-2426), Adimurthi-Yang proved a singular Trudinger-Moser inequality in the entire Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^N$ $(N\geq 2)$. Precisely, if $0\leq \beta<1$ and $0<\gamma\leq1-\beta$,…

In this paper we prove the infinitesimal uniqueness theorem for the Newton potential of non simply connected bodies using the singularity theory approach. We consider the Newtonian potentials of the domains in ${\bf R}^n$ boundaries of…

A number of derivations of the standard neutrino oscillation formula are known, each one providing its own unique insights. Common to all treatments is the assumption that neutrinos propagate freely between source and detector, as indeed…

We will show in this paper that if $\lambda$ is very close to 1, then $$I(M,\lambda,m)= \sup_{u\in H^{1,n}_0(M) ,\int_M|\nabla u|^ndV=1}\int_\Omega (e^{\alpha_n |u|^\frac{n}{n-1}}-\lambda\sum\limits_{k=1}^m\frac{|\alpha_nu^\frac{n}{n-1}|^k}…

Potentials play an important role in solving boundary value problems for elliptic equations. In the middle of the last century, a potential theory was constructed for a two-dimensional elliptic equation with one singular coefficient. In the…

We use the quantum unimodular theory of gravity to relate the value of the cosmological constant, $\Lambda$, and the energy scale for the emergence of cosmological classicality. The fact that $\Lambda$ and unimodular time are complementary…

We considered the problem of obtaining upper bounds for the mathematical expectation of the $q$-norm ($2\leqslant q \leqslant \infty$) of the vector which is uniformly distributed on the unit Euclidean sphere. We finish the paper with…

Corrections to Newton's inverse law have been so far considered, but not clear in warped higher dimensional worlds, because of complexity of the Einstein equation. Here we give a model of a warped 6D world with an extra 2D sphere. We take a…

The uncertainty principle lemma for the Laplacian on Euclidean spaces shows the borderline-behavior of a potential for the following question : whether the Schr\"odinger operator has a finite or infinite number of the discrete pectrum. In…

We consider Hotelling's T^2 statistic for an arbitrary d-dimensional sample. If the sampling is not too deterministic or inhomogeneous, then under zero means hypothesis, T^2 tends to \chi^2_d in distribution. We show that a test for the…

Sharp comparison theorems are derived for all eigenvalues of the (weighted) Laplacian, for various classes of weighted-manifolds (i.e. Riemannian manifolds endowed with a smooth positive density). Examples include Euclidean space endowed…

We study a geometric property related to spherical hyperplane tessellations in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. We first consider a fixed $x$ on the Euclidean sphere and tessellations with $M \gg d$ hyperplanes passing through the origin having normal…
