In this review, the formation, evolution, and decay of the large-scale structure of the Universe is discussed in the context of observational data, numerical simulations, and the Cosmological Standard Model (CSM). Problems concerning…
We first consider {\it deterministic} immersions of the $d$-dimensional sphere into high dimensional Euclidean spaces, where the immersion is via spherical harmonics of level $n$. The main result of the article is the, a priori unexpected,…
Boundary-catalytic branching processes describe a broad class of natural phenomena where the population of diffusing particles grows due to their spontaneous binary branching (e.g., division, fission or splitting) on a catalytic boundary…
The lilypond model on a point process in $d$-space is a growth-maximal system of non-overlapping balls centred at the points. We establish central limit theorems for the total volume and the number of components of the lilypond model on a…
The inf-sup constant for the divergence, or LBB constant, is related to the Cosserat spectrum. It has been known for a long time that on non-smooth domains the Cosserat operator has a non-trivial essential spectrum, which can be used to…
We find upper bounds for the essential dimension of various moduli stacks of $\sln$-bundles over a curve. When $n$ is a prime power, our calculation computes the essential dimension of the stack of stable bundles exactly and the essential…
We study global properties of Dirichlet forms such as uniqueness of the Dirichlet extension, stochastic completeness and recurrence. We characterize these properties by means of vanishing of a boundary term in Green's formula for functions…
The purpose of this paper is to point out that `supremum' in two inequalities of Brooks should be replaced with `infimum'. The results of this paper are already known by Professor Higuci. Hence, I want to delete this paper from this…
In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…
Estimating the volume of a convex body is a canonical problem in theoretical computer science. Its study has led to major advances in randomized algorithms, Markov chain theory, and computational geometry. In particular, determining the…
In this paper, we consider upper bounds on the size of transitive subtournaments in a digraph. In particular, we give an analogy of Hoffman's bound for the size of cocliques in a regular graph. Furthermore, we partially improve the Hoffman…
We prove the Fundamental Gap Conjecture, which states that the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues (the spectral gap) of a Schr\"odinger operator with convex potential and Dirichlet boundary data on a convex domain is…
A key quantity that occurs in the error analysis of several numerical methods for eigenvalue problems is the distance between the eigenvalue of interest and the next nearest eigenvalue. When we are interested in the smallest or fundamental…
We consider the problem of lower bounding a generalized Minkowski measure of subsets of a convex body with a log-concave probability measure, conditioned on the set size. A bound is given in terms of diameter and set size, which is sharp…
Contraction coefficients give a quantitative strengthening of the data processing inequality. As such, they have many natural applications whenever closer analysis of information processing is required. However, it is often challenging to…

We consider the spectrum of a Schroedinger operator in a multi-dimensional cylinder perturbed by a shrinking potential. We study the phenomenon of a new eigenvalue emerging from the threshold of the essential spectrum and give the…
We consider the rate of volume growth of large Carnot-Carath\'eodory metric balls on a class of unbounded model hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{C}^2$. When the hypersurface has a uniform global structure, we show that a metric ball of radius…
We derive the finite-volume correction to the binding energy of an N-particle quantum bound state in a cubic periodic volume. Our results are applicable to bound states with arbitrary composition and total angular momentum, and in any…
The Convex Envelope of a given function was recently characterized as the solution of a fully nonlinear Partial Differential Equation (PDE). In this article we study a modified problem: the Dirichlet problem for the underlying PDE. The main…
