In a previous work [J. Chem. Phys. 155, 244111 (2021)], we found counterexamples to the fundamental Hohenberg-Kohn theorem from density-functional theory in finite-lattice systems represented by graphs. Here, we demonstrate that this only…
We develop subrepresentation inequalities for infinitely degenerate metrics, and obtain corresponding Poincare and Sobolev inequalities. We then derive conditions on the degenerate metric under which weak solutions to associated infinitely…
We linearize the Einstein equations when the metric is Bondi-Sachs, when the background is Schwarzschild or Minkowski, and when there is a matter source in the form of a thin shell whose density varies with time and angular position. By…
In this study, we firstly establish the well-posedness of a degenerate parabolic equation under Dirichlet boundary conditions. Following this, we introduce a shape design problem, which acts as a framework for approximating the degenerate…
We study second-order hyperbolic equations with degenerate elliptic operators and non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary inputs. We establish existence and regularity of weak solutions in weighted Sobolev spaces under mild assumptions on the…
We consider Bloch states of weak spacetime-periodic perturbations of homogeneous materials in one spatial dimension. The interplay of space- and time-periodicity leads to an infinitely degenerate dispersion relation in the free case. We…

A degenerate wave equation with time-varying delay in the boundary control input is considered. The well-posedness of the system is established by applying the semigroup theory. The boundary stabilization of the degenerate wave equation is…
We solved numerically the implicit, trascendental equation that defines the eigenenergy surface of a degenerating isolated doublet of unbound states in the simple but illustrative case of the scattering of a beam of particles by a double…
We study a class of degenerate parabolic equations with boundary point degeneracy in dimensions N>=2 and investigate the associated boundary observability problem by means of shape design. While one-dimensional degenerate models have been…
A Poincar\'e-Einstein metric $g$ is called non-degenerate if there are no non-zero infinitesimal Einstein deformations of $g$, in Bianchi gauge, that lie in $L^2$. We prove that a 4-dimensional Poincar\'e-Einstein metric is non-degenerate…
We introduce the concept of boundary degeneracy of topologically ordered states on a compact orientable spatial manifold with boundaries, and emphasize that the boundary degeneracy provides richer information than the bulk degeneracy.…
We study non-invertible topological symmetry operators in massive quantum field theories in (1+1) dimensions. In phases where this symmetry is spontaneously broken we show that the particle spectrum often has degeneracies dictated by the…
We consider an one-phase free boundary problem for a degenerate fully non-linear elliptic operators with non-zero right hand side. We use the approach present in \cite{DeSilva} to prove that flat free boundaries and Lipschitz free…
In this paper, we deal with the boundary controllability of a one-dimensional degenerate and singular wave equation with degeneracy and singularity occurring at the boundary of the spatial domain. Exact boundary controllability is proved in…
We obtain optimal boundary and global regularity estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear elliptic equations whose ellipticity degenerates at the critical points of a given solution. We show that any solution is $C^{1,\alpha}$…
In this paper, we analyze the singular shape of the free boundary at degenerate points in a three dimensional axisymmetric compressible gravity flow. For all possible degenerate points on the free surface, we prove that the only nontrivial…
In this work, we analytically investigate a degenerating PDE system for phase separation and complete damage processes considered on a nonsmooth time-dependent domain with mixed boundary conditions. The evolution of the system is described…
