We study the quantization of the corner symmetry algebra of 3d gravity, that is the algebra of observables associated with 1d spatial boundaries. In the continuum field theory, at the classical level, this symmetry algebra is given by the…

We study the spectrum of the Hodge-Laplacian on $1$-forms for left-invariant metrics on the Lie group $\operatorname{SU}(2) \cong S^3$ and its quotient $\operatorname{SO}(3)\cong P^3(\mathbb{R})$. To the best of our knowledge, we provide…

A five-dimensional solution to Einstein's equations coupled to a scalar field has been proposed as a partial solution to the cosmological constant problem: the effect of arbitrary vacuum energy (tension) of a 3-brane is cancelled; however,…

We present a new method for calculating the Green functions for a lattice scalar field theory in $D$ dimensions with arbitrary potential $V(\phi)$. The method for non-perturbative evaluation of Green functions for $D \! = \! 1$ is…

In this paper, we investigate the monotonicity of the first Steklov--Dirichlet eigenvalue on eccentric annuli with respect to the distance, namely $t$, between the centers of the inner and outer boundaries of an annulus. We first show the…

In dimensions d= 1, 2, 3 the Laplacian can be perturbed by a point potential. In higher dimensions the Laplacian with a point potential cannot be defined as a self-adjoint operator. However, for any dimension there exists a natural family…

We consider the sharp Sobolev-Poincar\'e constant for the embedding of $W^{1,2}_0(\Omega)$ into $L^q(\Omega)$. We show that such a constant exhibits an unexpected dual variational formulation, in the range $1<q<2$. Namely, this can be…

The off-shell dynamics of the O(3) nonlinear sigma-model is probed in terms of spectral densities and two-point functions by means of the form factor approach. The exact form factors of the Spin field, Noether-current, EM-tensor and the…

Let $ P \colon \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C} $ be an entire function. A Poincar\'e function $ L \colon \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C} $ of $ P $ is the entire extension of a linearising coordinate near a repelling fixed point of $ P $. We propose…

We present a geometric proof of the Poincar\'e-Dulac Normalization Theorem for analytic vector fields with singularities of Poincar\'e type. Our approach allows us to relate the size of the convergence domain of the linearizing…

Functional determinants for the scalar Laplacian on spherical caps and slices, flat balls, shells and generalised cylinders are evaluated in two, three and four dimensions using conformal techniques. Both Dirichlet and Robin boundary…

On a convex set, we prove that the Poincar\'e-Sobolev constant for functions vanishing at the boundary can be bounded from above by the ratio between the perimeter and a suitable power of the $N-$dimensional measure. This generalizes an old…

We construct a tessellation of AdS$_3$, by extending the equilateral triangulation of AdS$_2$ on the Poincar\'{e} disk based on the $(2,3,7)$ triangle group, suitable for studying strongly coupled phenomena and the AdS/CFT correspondence. A…

Let O be a closed geodesic polygon in S^2. Maps from O into S^2 are said to satisfy tangent boundary conditions if the edges of O are mapped into the geodesics which contain them. Taking O to be an octant of S^2, we compute the infimum…

We construct potentials for the exterior derivative, in particular, for the gradient, the curl, and the divergence operators, over domains with shellable triangulations. Notably, the class of shellable triangulations includes local patches…

We study eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\RR^n$ with piecewise smooth boundary. We bound the distance between an arbitrary parameter $E > 0$ and the spectrum $\{E_j \}$ in terms of…

We examine the effective field equations that are obtained from the axi-dilaton gravity action with a second order Euler-Poincare term and a cosmological constant in all higher dimensions. We solve these equations for five-dimensional…

We prove a unique continuation property for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ when $s \in (-n/2,\infty)\setminus \mathbb{Z}$. In addition, we study Poincar\'e-type inequalities for the operator $(-\Delta)^s$ when $s\geq 0$. We apply…

We study Poincar\'e--Friedrichs--Weber constants for Sobolev differential forms on bounded convex domains and on domains star-shaped with respect to a ball. Generalizing work by Guerini and Savo, our main result shows that the…

This paper is concerned with a class of singular stable-like Dirichlet forms on $\R^d$, which are generated by $d$ independent copies of a one-dimensional symmetric $\alpha$-stable process, and whose L\'evy jump kernel measure is…
