The kinetic theory description of a low density gas of hard spheres or disks, confined between two parallel plates separated a distance smaller than twice the diameter of the particles, is addressed starting from the Liouville equation of…
In this paper, we provide a sufficient condition for a curve on a surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to be given by an orthogonal intersection with a sphere. This result makes it possible to express the boundary condition entirely in terms of the…
Consider a uniformly distributed random linear subspace $L$ and a stochastically independent random affine subspace $E$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, both of fixed dimension. For a natural class of distributions for $E$ we show that the intersection…
We investigate the support of smeary, directionally smeary, and finite sample smeary probability measures $\mu$ with density $\rho$ on spheres $\mathbb{S}^m$. First, in the rotationally symmetric case, we show that a distribution is not…
Separability conditions for a bipartite quantum system of finite-dimensional subsystems are formulated in terms of R\'{e}nyi and Tsallis entropies. Entropic uncertainty relations often lead to entanglement criteria. We propose new approach…
We study several constrained variational problem in the 2-Wasserstein metric for which the set of probability densities satisfying the constraint is not closed. For example, given a probability density $F_0$ on $\R^d$ and a time-step $h>0$,…
Let $\Phi\in\mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ be a sparse Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform [KN14] with $s$ non-zeroes per column. For a subset $T$ of the unit sphere, $\varepsilon\in(0,1/2)$ given, we study settings for $m,s$ required to ensure $$…
Let F be a family of subsets of {1,2,...,n}. The width-degree of an element x in at least one member of F is the width of the family {U in F | x in U}. If F has maximum width-degree at most k, then F is locally k-wide. Bounds on the size of…
We study the Aw-Rascle system in a one-dimensional domain with periodic boundary conditions, where the offset function is replaced by the gradient of the function $\rho_{n}^{\gamma}$, where $\gamma \to \infty$. The resulting system…
We study density thresholds that force a measurable set $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$ to contain all sufficiently large similar copies of every $n$-point configuration. We prove a lower bound of the form $1-O((\log n)/n)$, which matches the…
We consider a random diffusion dynamics for an infinite system of hard spheres of two different sizes evolving in $\mathbb{R}^d$, its reversible probability measure, and its projection on the subset of the large spheres. The main feature is…
The rigidity theorems of Llarull and Marques-Neves, which show two different ways scalar curvature can characterize the sphere, have associated stability conjectures. Here we produce the first examples related to these stability…
The variational capacity cap_p in Euclidean spaces is known to enjoy the density dichotomy at large scales, namely that for every subset E of R^n, inf_{x in R^n} (cap_p(E \cap B(x,r),B(x,2r)) / cap_p(B(x,r),B(x,2r))) is either zero or tends…
The molecular density functional theory of fluids provides an exact theory for computing solvation free energies in implicit solvents. One of the reasons it has not received nearly as much attention as quantum density functional theory for…
We compute the drag force on a sphere settling slowly in a quiescent, linearly stratified fluid. Stratification can significantly enhance the drag experienced by the settling particle. The magnitude of this effect depends on whether…
The structure of polydisperse hard sphere fluids, in the presence of a wall, is studied by the Rosenfeld density functional theory. Within this approach, the local excess free energy depends on only four combinations of the full set of…
This paper deals with the generalization of usual round spheres in the flat Minkowski spacetime to the case of a generic four-dimensional spacetime manifold $M$. We consider geometric properties of sphere-like submanifolds in $M$ and…
A set of points $S$ in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called \textit{Ramsey} if any finite partition of $\mathbb{R}^{\infty}$ yields a monochromatic copy of $S$. While characterization of Ramsey set remains a major open problem in the…
We consider four problems. Rogers proved that for any convex body $K$, we can cover ${\mathbb R}^d$ by translates of $K$ of density very roughly $d\ln d$. First, we extend this result by showing that, if we are given a family of positive…
We show that in any $d$-dimensional real normed space, unit balls can be packed with density at least \[\frac{(1-o(1))d\log d}{2^{d+1}},\] improving a result of Schmidt from 1958 by a logarithmic factor and generalizing the recent result of…
