Topological phases, such as Chern insulators, are defined in terms of additive indices that are stable against the addition of trivial degrees of freedom. Such topology presents an obstruction to any Wannier representation, namely, the…

We investigate the decay estimates of global solutions for a class of one-dimensional inhomogeneous nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. While most existing results focus on spatial dimensions $d\geq2$, the decay properties in one dimension…

By proving an integral formula of the curvature tensor of $E\ts \det E$, we observe that the curvature tensor of $E\ts \det E$ is very similar to that of a line bundle and obtain certain new Kodaira-Akizuki-Nakano type vanishing theorems…

In this paper we quantify the notion of antisymmetry of the Fourier transform of certain vector valued measures. The introduced scale is related to the condition appearing in Uchiyama's theorem and is used to give a lower bound for the…

We investigate the width complexity of nondeterministic unitary OBDDs (NUOBDDs). Firstly, we present a generic lower bound on their widths based on the size of strong 1-fooling sets. Then, we present classically cheap functions that are…

We consider the Cauchy problem for doubly non-linear degenerate parabolic equations on Riemannian manifolds of infinite volume, or in $\R^N$. The equation contains a weight function as a capacitary coefficient which we assume to decay at…

Accurate prediction of fundamental band gaps of crystalline solid state systems entirely within density functional theory is a long standing challenge. Here, we present a simple and inexpensive method that achieves this by means of…

This paper establishes a theory of nonlinear spectral decompositions by considering the eigenvalue problem related to an absolutely one-homogeneous functional in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. This approach is both motivated by…

Motivated by the analysis of gapped periodic quantum systems in presence of a uniform magnetic field in dimension $d \le 3$, we study the possibility to construct spanning sets of exponentially localized (generalized) Wannier functions for…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators with potentials satisfying a generalized bounded variation condition at infinity and an $L^p$ decay condition. This class of potentials includes slowly decaying Wigner--von Neumann type potentials…

This paper contains a Kawamata-Viehweg-Koll\'ar type vanishing theorem for vector bundles. In order to formulate and prove this cleanly, we introduce a class of sheaves that automatically satisfies a vanishing theorem. This is obtained by…

Maximally localized Wannier functions are the key tool for a variety of physical applications of Bloch states. Here we develop a simple and exact procedure to construct maximally localized Wannier functions for one dimensional periodic…

The Beilinson--Bloch conjecture is a generalization of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture, which relates the ranks of Chow groups of smooth projective varieties over global fields to the order of vanishing of $L$-functions. We prove…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and suppose $Y\subseteq X$ is a Banach space compactly embedded into $X$, and $(a_k)$ is a weakly null sequence of functionals in $X^*$. Then there exists a sequence $\{\varepsilon_n\} \searrow 0$ such that…

We define a new symmetry for morphisms of vector bundles, called triality symmetry, and compute Chern class formulas for the degeneracy loci of such morphisms. In an appendix, we show how to canonically associate an octonion algebra bundle…
