On finite metric graphs the set of all realizations of the Laplace operator in the edgewise defined $L^2$-spaces are studied. These are defined by coupling boundary conditions at the vertices most of which define non-self-adjoint operators.…
The Dirichlet Laplacian in a curved three-dimensional tube built along a spatial (bounded or unbounded) curve is investigated in the limit when the uniform cross-section of the tube diminishes. Both deformations due to bending and twisting…
Consider $n$ points $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ in finite-dimensional euclidean space, each having one of two colors. Suppose there exists a separating hyperplane (identified with its unit normal vector $w)$ for the points, i.e a hyperplane such that…

We use the relation between certain diffeomorphisms in the bulk and Weyl transformations on the boundary to build the conformal structure of the metric in the presence of matter in the bulk. We explicitly obtain the conformal anomaly in any…
We consider the problem of provably finding a stationary point of a smooth function to be minimized on the variety of bounded-rank matrices. This turns out to be unexpectedly delicate. We trace the difficulty back to a geometric obstacle:…
The construction of Ekman boundary layer solutions near the non-flat boundaries presents a complex challenge, with limited research on this issue. In Masmoudi's pioneering work [Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 53 (2000), 432--483], the Ekman…
We present a completely new structure theoretic approach to the dilation theory of linear operators. Our main result is the following theorem: if $X$ is a super-reflexive Banach space and $T$ is contained in the weakly closed convex hull of…
We study ballistic transport in bilayer graphene junctions and show how electrostatic gating, interlayer bias, and homogeneous strain provide complementary control over electron transmission. In the absence of strain, transport is governed…
We consider the scalar Helmholtz equation with variable, discontinuous coefficients, modelling transmission of acoustic waves through an anisotropic penetrable obstacle. We first prove a well-posedness result and a frequency-explicit bound…
Recent studies on fully dielectric multilayered metamaterials have shown that the negligibly small nonlocal effects (spatial dispersion) typically observed in the limit of deeply subwavelength layers may be significantly enhanced by…
Dielectric relaxation in disordered dielectric mixtures are presented by emphasizing the interfacial polarization. The obtained results coincide with and cause confusion with those of the low frequency dispersion behavior. The considered…
We consider an inverse problem for a hyperbolic partial differential equation on a compact Riemannian manifold. Assuming that $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ are two disjoint open subsets of the boundary of the manifold we define the restricted…
Motivated by a general dilation theory for operator-valued measures, framings and bounded linear maps on operator algebras, we consider the dilation theory of the above objects with special structures. We show that every operator-valued…
We consider a restricted Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to a wave type operator on a Riemannian manifold with boundary. The restriction corresponds to the case where the Dirichlet traces are supported on one subset of the boundary and…
The phenomenon of anomalous localized resonance (ALR) is observed at the interface between materials with positive and negative material parameters and is characterized by the fact that, when a given source is placed near the interface, the…
The expressibility of an ansatz used in a variational quantum algorithm is defined as the uniformity with which it can explore the space of unitary matrices, i.e., its covering number. The expressibility of a particular ansatz has a…
We consider a non-uniformly elliptic second-order differential operator with periodic coefficients that models composite media consisting of highly anisotropic cylindrical fibres periodically distributed in an isotropic background. The…
We use matched asymptotics to derive analytical formulae for the acoustic impedance of a subwavelength orifice consisting of a cylindrical perforation in a rigid plate. In the inviscid case, an end correction to the length of the orifice…
This paper presents a new performance bound for estimation problems where the parameter to estimate lies in a Riemannian manifold (a smooth manifold endowed with a Riemannian metric) and follows a given prior distribution. In this setup,…
