The Monge-Kantorovich transportation problem involves optimizing with respect to a given a cost function. Uniqueness is a fundamental open question about which little is known when the cost function is smooth and the landscapes containing…

We introduce complex cones and associated projective gauges, generalizing a real Birkhoff cone and its Hilbert metric to complex vector spaces. We deduce a variety of spectral gap theorems in complex Banach spaces. We prove a dominated…

In this article we study two classical linear water wave problems, i) normal modes of infinite straight channels of bounded constant cross-section, and ii) trapped longitudinal modes in domains with unbounded constant cross-section. Both…

We show that the knowledge of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map on the boundary of a bounded open set in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 3$, for the perturbed polyharmonic operator $(-\Delta)^m+A\cdot D+q$, $m\ge 2$, with $n>m$, $A\in…

We provide very mild sufficient conditions for space-time domains (non-necessarily cylindrical) which ensure that the continuous Dirichlet problem and the H\"older Dirichlet problem are well-posed, for any parabolic operator in divergence…

We define the Dunkl and Dunkl-Heckman operators in infinite number of variables and use them to construct the quantum integrals of the Calogero-Moser-Sutherland problems at infinity. As a corollary we have a simple proof of integrability of…

The \emph{Continuity Problem} is the question whether effective operators are continuous, where an effective operator $F$ is a function on a space of constructively given objects $x$, defined by mapping construction instructions for $x$ to…

Given the Hamiltonian realisation of a topological (3+1)d gauge theory with finite group $G$, we consider a family of tensor network representations of its ground state subspace. This family is indexed by gapped boundary conditions encoded…

We develop an obstruction theory for the extension of truncated minimal $A$-infinity bimodule structures over truncated minimal $A$-infinity algebras. Obstructions live in far-away pages of a (truncated) fringed spectral sequence of…

We consider the quartic analogue of the Kontsevich model, which is defined by a measure $\exp(-{N}\,\mathrm{Tr}(E\Phi^2+(\lambda/4)\Phi^4)) d\Phi$ on Hermitian ${N}\times{N}$-matrices, where $E$ is any positive matrix and $\lambda$ a…

Continuously extending combinatorial optimization objectives is a powerful technique commonly applied to the optimization of set functions. However, few such methods exist for extending functions on permutations, despite the fact that many…

The theory of $\tau$-summing and $\sigma$-nuclear linear operators on Banach spaces was developed by Pietsch [12, Chapter 23]. Extending the linear case to the range p > 1 and generalizing all cases to the multilinear setting, in this paper…

In this thesis we prove analytic results about a cohomotopical Seiberg-Witten theory for a Riemannian, Spin$^c$(4), 4-manifold with periodic ends, $(X, g, {\tau})$ . Our results show that, under certain technical assumptions on $(X, g,…

Let $K$ be an absolutely convex infinite-dimensional compact in a Banach space $\mathcal{X}$. The set of all bounded linear operators $T$ on $\mathcal{X}$ satisfying $TK\supset K$ is denoted by $G(K)$. Our starting point is the study of the…

This is an expository article. It discusses an approach to hypoelliptic Fredholm index theory based on noncommutative methods (groupoids, C*-algebras, K-theory). The paper starts with an explicit index theorem for scalar second order…

In this work we deal with elliptic equations driven by the variable exponent double phase operator with a Kirchhoff term and a right-hand side that is just locally defined in terms of very mild assumptions. Based on an abstract critical…

A celebrated 1922 theorem of Kuratowski states that there are at most 14 distinct sets arising from applying the operations of complementation and closure, any number of times, in any order, to a subset of a topological space. In this paper…

This paper considers the Helmholtz problem in the exterior of a ball with Dirichlet boundary conditions and radiation conditions imposed at infinity. The differential Helmholtz operator depends on the complex wavenumber with non-negative…
