A quantum mechanical formulation of de Sitter cosmological spacetimes still eludes string theory. In this paper we conjecture a potentially rigorous framework in which the status of de Sitter space is the same as that of a resonance in a…
We give a new proof for the existence of spherically symmetric steady states to the Vlasov-Poisson system, following a strategy that has been used successfully to approximate axially symmetric solutions numerically, both to the…
Motivated by the recent progress on positive mass theorem for asymptotically flat manifolds with arbitrary ends and the Gromov's definition of scalar curvature lower bound for continuous metrics, we start a program on the positive mass…
We introduce a multi-species generalization of the asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) with a ``no-passing" constraint, forbidding overtaking, on a one-dimensional open chain. This no-passing rule fragments the Hilbert space into an…
In axial symmetry, there is a gauge for Einstein equations such that the total mass of the spacetime can be written as a conserved, positive definite, integral on the spacelike slices. This property is expected to play an important role in…
In this paper the existence and unicity of a stable periodic orbit is proven, for a class of piecewise affine differential equations in dimension 3 or more, provided their interaction structure is a negative feedback loop. It is also shown…
We introduce a class of discrete models for surface relaxation. By exactly solving the master equation which governs the microscopic dynamics of the surface, we determine the steady state of the surface and calculate its roughness. We will…
We consider solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic systems of balance laws with stiff relaxation and formally derive a parabolic-type effective system describing the late-time asymptotics of these solutions. We show that many examples from…
In this paper we introduce a family of center of masses that complement the definition of the family of Gauss-Bonnet-Chern masses by Ge-Wang-Wu and Li-Nguyen. In order to prove the existence and the well-definedness of the center of mass,…
We develop a framework for understanding the existence of asymptotically flat solutions to the static vacuum Einstein equations with prescribed boundary data consisting of the induced metric and mean curvature on a 2-sphere. A partial…
Localized patterns are spatially confined structures that arise in lattice dynamical systems and play an important role in physics, biology, and materials science. While their existence and bifurcation structure are well-understood, the…
Nonexpansive mappings play a central role in modern optimization and monotone operator theory because their fixed points can describe solutions to optimization or critical point problems. It is known that when the mappings are sufficiently…
In this paper, we prove a version of the arithmetic Bertini theorem asserting that there exists a strictly small and generically smooth section of a given arithmetically free graded arithmetic linear series.
We consider the nonlinear wave equation, with a large exponent, power-like non-linearity, outside a ball of the Euclidean 3-dimensional space. In a previous article, we have proved that any global solution converges, up to a radiation term,…
In physics, experiments ultimately inform us as to what constitutes a good theoretical model of any physical concept: physical space should be no exception. The best picture of physical space in Newtonian physics is given by the…
Given $n$ point masses turning in a plane at a constant speed, this paper deals with the global bifurcation of periodic solutions for the masses, in that plane and in space. As a special case, one has a complete study of n identical masses…
A quantum theory of asymptotically flat space-times is presented using the solutions of the Null Surface Formulation (NSF) field equations in a perturbative scheme. Free-field commutation relations are given for the null free data of NSF at…

The article explores the qualitative properties of solutions to elliptic equations and systems, focusing particularly on whether solutions retain the symmetry of their domains. According to the well-known Gidas-Ni-Nirenberg theorem,…
Within the general class of Asymptotically Anti-de Sitter spacetimes that are asymptotic to the A-de-S Schwarzschild metric, we give a simple positive mass theorem based on arguments from causal structure. A general result for all…
