An equation of state for a multicomponent mixture of non-additive hard spheres in $d$ dimensions is proposed. It yields a rather simple density dependence and constitutes a natural extension of the equation of state for additive hard…
We solve the Riemann-Hilbert problem on the sphere topology for three singularities of finite strength and a fourth one infinitesimal, by determining perturbatively the Poincare' accessory parameters. In this way we compute the…
We find some explicit bounds on the ${\mathcal L}(L^2)$-norm of pseudo-differential operators with symbols defined by a metric on the phase space. In particular, we prove that this norm depends only on the "structure constants" of the…
We develop a technique using dual mixed-volumes to study the isotropic constants of some classes of spaces. In particular, we recover, strengthen and generalize results of Ball and Junge concerning the isotropic constants of subspaces and…
We construct Euclidean Liouville conformal field theories in odd number of dimensions. The theories are nonlocal and non-unitary with a log-correlated Liouville field, a ${\cal Q}$-curvature background, and an exponential Liouville-type…
One of the most frustrating issues in early universe cosmology centers on how to reconcile the vast choice of universes in string theory and in its most plausible high energy sibling, eternal inflation, that jointly generate the string…
We argue that quantum Liouville field theory supplemented with a suitable source term is the effective theory which describes the short-range correlations of the gluon saturation momentum in the two-dimensional impact-parameter space, at…
The conformal symmetry in the Liouville theory is analysed by using the Hamiltonian light--front formalism. The boundary conditions of dynamical variables are seen to involve an arbitrary function of time, so that the standard methods for…
In this paper, on Riemannian manifolds with boundary, we establish a Yau type gradient estimate and Liouville theorem for harmonic functions under Dirichlet boundary condition. Under a similar setting, we also formulate a Souplet-Zhang type…
This article is dedicated to establishing a novel approach to the cosmological constant, in which it is treated as an eigenvalue of a certain Sturm--Liouville problem. The key to this approach lies in the proper formulation of physically…
The quantum discrete Liouville model in the strongly coupled regime, 1<c<25, is formulated as a well defined quantum mechanical problem with unitary evolution operator. The theory is self-dual: there are two exponential fields related by…
Regular Sturm-Liouville problems with indefinite weight functions may possess finitely many non-real eigenvalues. In this note we prove explicit bounds on the real and imaginary parts of these eigenvalues in terms of the coefficients of the…
We analyse a simple example of a holographically dual pair in which we topologically twist both theories. The holography is based on the two-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Liouville conformal field theory that defines a unitary bulk quantum…
In this study, the inverse problem of the scattering theory on the half line for a piecewise continuous Sturm-Liouville equation with boundary condition depending quadratic on the spectral parameter is considered. The scattering data of the…
The Schubert problem asks for combinatorial models to compute structure constants of the cohomology ring with respect to Schubert classes and has been an important open problem in algebraic geometry and combinatorics that guided fruitful…
We consider the nonlinear equation $$-u'' = f(u) + h , \quad \text{on} \quad (-1,1),$$ where $f : {\mathbb R} \to {\mathbb R}$ and $h : [-1,1] \to {\mathbb R}$ are continuous, together with general Sturm-Liouville type, multi-point boundary…
In this note, we give a unified rigorous construction for the Liouville conformal field theory on compact Riemann surface with boundaries for $\gamma\in (0,2]$ and prove a certain type of Markov property. We also prove some fusion-type…
In this paper we shall give an analytic proof of the fact that the Liouville energy on a topological two sphere is bounded from below. Our proof does not rely on the uniformization theorem and the Onofri inequality, thus it is essentially…
In the present paper we derive Liouville type results and existence of periodic solutions for $\chi^{(2)}$ type systems with non-homogeneous nonlinearities. Moreover, we prove both universal bounds as well as singularity and decay estimates…
A new method to compute the symplectic structure of a quantum field theory with non trivial boundary conditions is proposed. Following the suggestion in \cite{ho:gnus, ardalan}, we regard that the boundary conditions are second class…
