We study boundedness, optimality and attainability of Trudinger-Moser type maximization problems in the radial and the subcritical homogeneous Sobolev spaces $\dot{W}^{1,p}_{0, \text{rad}}(B_R^N)\,(p<N)$. Our results give a revision of an…
We study the existence of maximizers for a one-parameter family of Strichartz inequalities on the torus. In general maximizing sequences can fail to be precompact in $L^2(\mathbb T)$, and maximizers can fail to exist. We provide a…

We set up Wigner distributions for $N$ state quantum systems following a Dirac inspired approach. In contrast to much of the work on this case, requiring a $2N\times 2N$ phase space, particularly when $N$ is even, our approach is uniformly…
We propose a phase-space representation concept in terms of the Wigner function for a quantum harmonic oscillator model that exhibits the semiconfinement effect through its mass varying with the position. The new method is used to compute…
