The impact of impenetrable obstacles on the energetics and equilibrium structure of strongly repulsive directed polymers is investigated. As a result of the strong interactions, regions of severe polymer depletion and excess are found in…
We consider a one-dimensional directed polymer in a random potential which is characterized by the Gaussian statistics with the finite size local correlations. It is shown that the well-known Kardar's solution obtained originally for a…
A conducting 1D line or 2D plane inside (or on the surface of) an insulator is considered.Impurities displace the charges inside the insulator. This results in a long-range fluctuating electric field acting on the conducting line (plane).…
We consider a nonlinear Dirichlet problem driven by a nonhomogeneous differential operator plus an indefinite potential. In the reaction we have the competing effects of a singular term and of concave and convex nonlinearities. In this…
This paper is devoted to the analysis of some fundamental problems of linear elasticity in 1D continua with self-similar interparticle interactions. We introduce a self-similar continuous field approach where the self-similarity is…

The continuum mechanics of line defects representing singularities due to terminating discontinuities of the elastic displacement and its gradient field is developed. The development is intended for application to coupled phase…
A mathematical model for the discrete nonlinear fragmentation (collision-induced breakage) equation with diffusion is studied. The existence of global weak solutions is established in arbitrary spatial dimensions without assuming a strictly…
We present a dispersion relation for defect CFT that reconstructs two-point functions in the presence of a defect as an integral of a single discontinuity. The main virtue of this formula is that it streamlines explicit bootstrap…
This paper reviews a class of univariate piecewise polynomial functions known as discrete splines, which share properties analogous to the better-known class of spline functions, but where continuity in derivatives is replaced by (a…
The critical behavior of the contact process in disordered and periodic binary 2d-lattices is investigated numerically by means of Monte Carlo simulations as well as via an analytical approximation and standard mean field theory.…
Mixed dictionaries generated by cosine and B-spline functions are considered. It is shown that, by highly nonlinear approaches such as Orthogonal Matching Pursuit, the discrete version of the proposed dictionaries yields a significant gain…
We consider a discrete-time version of the parabolic Anderson model. This may be described as a model for a directed (1+d)-dimensional polymer interacting with a random potential, which is constant in the deterministic direction and i.i.d.…
The interaction of moving discrete solitons with a linear Gaussian defect is investigated. Solitons with profiles varying from hyperbolic secant to exponentially localized are considered such that the mobility of soliton is maintained; the…
More competent learning models are demanded for data processing due to increasingly greater amounts of data available in applications. Data that we encounter often have certain embedded sparsity structures. That is, if they are represented…
We consider a possibly degenerate porous media type equation over all of $\R^d$ with $d = 1$, with monotone discontinuous coefficients with linear growth and prove a probabilistic representation of its solution in terms of an associated…
To ensure the discrete maximum principle or solution positivity in finite volume schemes, diffusive flux is sometimes discretized as a conical combination of finite differences. Such a combination may be impossible to construct along…
The study of a machine learning problem is in many ways is difficult to separate from the study of the loss function being used. One avenue of inquiry has been to look at these loss functions in terms of their properties as scoring rules…
We study a model in which particles interact through a hard-core repulsion complemented by a short-ranged attractive potential, of the kind found in colloidal suspensions. Combining theoretical and numerical work we locate the line of…
Spectra of standard 1d potentials (double-well, sin-Gordon etc) are given by trans-series in coupling, including (badly divergent) perturbative series (PS), and nonperturbative terms. All of them are badly defined (e.g. PS are badly…
