Of the contributions to the cosmological constant, zero-point energy and self energy contributions scale as $\Lambda^4$ where $\Lambda$ is an ultraviolet cutoff used to regulate the calculations. I show that such contributions vanish when…

We study solutions to variable-coefficient elliptic equations of the form $-\D(A(x) \nabla u) = \kappa u$, $\kappa>0$, in an exterior domain $\Om\subset \Rn$, where $A(x)$ is uniformly elliptic and asymptotically flat. Extending Rellich's…

We consider the leading one-chain term in a skeleton expansion for QCD observables and show that for energies Q^2>\Lambda^2, where Q^2=\Lambda^2 is the Landau pole in the coupling, the skeleton expansion result is equivalent to the standard…

One-dimensional scattering by a Coulomb potential V(x)=lambda/|x| is studied for both repulsive (c>0) and attractive (c<0) cases. Two methods of regularizing the singularity at x=0 are used, yielding the same conclusion, namely, that the…

We consider the damped hyperbolic equation (1) \epsilon u_{tt} + u_t = u_{xx} + F(u), x \in R, t \ge 0, where \epsilon is a positive, not necessarily small parameter. We assume that F(0) = F(1) = 0 and that F is concave on the interval…

We consider a contact Hamiltonian $H(x,p,u)$ with certain dependence on the contact variable $u$. If $u_{-}$ is a viscosity solution of the contact Hamilton-Jacobi equation \[H(x,D_{x}u(x),u(x))=0,\quad x\in M,\] and $u_{-}$ is locally…

Probability of reflection $R(E)$ off a finite attractive scattering potential at zero or low energies is ordinarily supposed to be 1. However, a fully attractive potential presents a paradoxical result that $R(0)=0$ or $R(0)<1$, when an…

In this paper, we continue to study the blowup problem of the $N$-dimensional compressible Euler or Euler-Poisson equations with repulsive forces, in radial symmetry. In details, we extend the recent result of "M.W. Yuen, \textit{Blowup for…

We compute the $\beta$-function of a YM theory, broken to $U(1)$, by evaluating the coupling constant renormalization in the broken phase. We perform the calculation in the unitary gauge where only physical particles appear and the theory…

We derive local estimates of positive solutions to the conformal $Q$-curvature equation $$ (-\Delta)^m u = K(x) u^{\frac{n+2m}{n-2m}} ~~~~~~ in ~ \Omega \backslash \Lambda $$ near their singular set $\Lambda$, where $\Omega \subset…

We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions of an equation of the form \begin{equation}\label{abs}\tag{*} G\big(x, D_x u,\lambda u(x)\big) = c_0\qquad\hbox{in $M$} \end{equation} on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$, where $G\in…

We provide further analytical and first numerical results on the solvable $\lambda\phi^4_4$-NCQFT model. We prove that for $\lambda<0$ the singular integral equation has a unique solution, whereas for $\lambda>0$ there is considerable…

We study the nodal set of solutions to equations of the form $$ (-\Delta)^s u = \lambda_+ (u_+)^{q-1} - \lambda_- (u_-)^{q-1}\quad\text{in $B_1$}, $$ where $\lambda_+,\lambda_->0, q \in [1,2)$, and $u_+$ and $u_-$ are respectively the…

We consider the one-chain term in a skeleton expansion for Euclidean QCD observables. Focusing on the particular example of the Adler D function, we show that although there is a Landau pole in the coupling at Q^2=\Lambda^2 which renders…

This paper treats the existence of positive solutions of $-\Delta u + V(x) u = \lambda f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$. Here $N \geq 1$, $\lambda > 0$ is a parameter and $f(u)$ satisfies conditions only in a neighborhood of $u=0$. We shall show the…

We present four examples of integrable partial differential equations (PDEs) of mathematical physics that---when linearized around a stationary soliton---exhibit scattering without reflection at {\it all} energies. Starting from the most…

Consider a solution $u$ to $\Delta u +Vu=0$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$, where $V$ is real-valued, measurable and $|V|\leq 1$. If $|u(x)| \leq \exp(-C |x| \log^{1/2}|x|)$, $|x|>2$, where $C$ is a sufficiently large absolute constant, then $u\equiv…
