In this paper we consider minimizers for nonlocal energy functionals generalizing elastic energies that are connected with the theory of peridynamics \cite{Silling2000} or nonlocal diffusion models \cite{Rossi}. We derive nonlocal versions…
We examine the Casimir energy of 5D electro-magnetism in the recent standpoint. Z$_2$ symmetry is taken into account. After confirming the consistency with the past result, we do new things based on a new regularization. The regularization…
In this paper we extend the well-known concentration -- compactness principle of P.L. Lions to the variable exponent case. We also give some applications to the existence problem for the $p(x)-$Laplacian with critical growth.
In this note we address the attempted proof of the existence of static solutions to the Einstein-Vlasov system as given in \cite{Wol}. We focus on a specific and central part of the proof which concerns a variational problem with an…
We construct a family of conserved energies for the one dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation, but in the low regularity case (in \cite{KL} we have constructed conserved energies in the high regularity situation). This can be done thanks to…
We review all the calculations necessary for the construction of a Lyapunov like functional for nonlinear stability analysis of steady states in thermodynamically isolated/open systems composed of compressible heat conducting fluids.
We prove a theorem, using the density functional approach and relying on a classical result by Lieb and Simon on Thomas-Fermi model, showing that in the thermodynamic limit bulk matter is at most semiclassical and coherence preserving. The…
Based on a generalization of Hohenberg-Kohn's theorem, we propose a ground state theory for bosonic quantum systems. Since it involves the one-particle reduced density matrix $\gamma$ as a natural variable but still recovers quantum…
We consider a class of single-director Cosserat shell models accounting for both curvature and finite mid-plane strains. We assume a polyconvexity condition for the stored-energy function that reduces to a physically correct membrane model…
A density-functional theory is developed based on the Maxwell--Schr\"odinger equation with an internal magnetic field in addition to the external electromagnetic potentials. The basic variables of this theory are the electron density and…
