It is shown analytically and numerically that the finite-temperature many-body perturbation theory in the grand canonical ensemble has zero radius of convergence at zero temperature when the energy ordering or degree of degeneracy for the…
In this paper, we initiate the study of finite temperature quantum field theories (QFT's) on the Moyal plane. Such theories violate causality which influences the properties of these theories. In particular, causality influences the…
We prove bounds on the minimal time for quantum messaging, propagation/creation of correlations, and control of states for general lattice quantum many-body systems. The proofs are based on a maximal velocity bound, which states that the…
Generalizing work of Polya, de Bruijn and Newman, we allow the backward heat equation to deform the zeros of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions. There is a real constant \Lambda_Kr (generalizing the de Bruijn-Newman constant \Lambda) such that…
Starting from the knowledge of the four fundamental quantities length L, mass M, time T, absolute temperature $\theta$ and accepting the validity of Gauss's law in all dimensions, we generalize, by the theory of physical dimensions, the…
In this paper we give a new proof to an Engelbert-Schmidt type zero-one law for time-homogeneous diffusions, which provides deterministic criteria for the convergence of integral functional of diffusions. Our proof is based on a slightly…
This is the second part in a four-paper sequence, which establishes the Threshold Conjecture and the Soliton Bubbling vs.~Scattering Dichotomy for the hyperbolic Yang--Mills equation in the $(4+1)$-dimensional space-time. This paper…
We give a new proof of a theorem of Mansour and Sun by using number theory and Rothe's identity.
In two dimensions, Gallagher's theorem is a strengthening of the Littlewood conjecture that holds for almost all pairs of real numbers. We prove an inhomogeneous fibre version of Gallagher's theorem, sharpening and making unconditional a…
Recently van Zon and Cohen [1-3] proposed an extension of the Fluctuation Theorems (FTs) of Evans and Searles [4]. For dissipative nonequilibrium systems, Cohen and van Zon studied the fluctuations of the heat absorbed, over a period of…
An analogue of the convergence part of the Khintchine-Groshev theorem, as well as its multiplicative version, is proved for nondegenerate smooth submanifolds in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The proof combines methods from metric number theory with a new…
Density functional theory (DFT) has become a basic tool for the study of electronic structure of matter, in which the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem plays a fundamental role in the development of DFT. Unfortunately, the existing proofs are…
The advent of the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem in 1964, its extension to finite-T, Kohn-Sham theory, and relativistic extensions provide the well-established formalism of density-functional theory (DFT). This theory enables the calculation of all…
Three arguments based on the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) proof of the nonexistence of local hidden variables are presented. The first is a description of a simple game which a team that uses the GHZ method will always win. The second…
We present two geometric proofs of the Kochen-Specker theorem. A quite similar argument has been used by Cooke, Keane, and Moran, as well as by Kalmbach in her book to derive the Gleason theorem.
R. Clausius proved Carnot's theorem basing on postulate "Heat cannot, of itself, pass from a colder to a hotter body". Alexander Gukhman demonstrated that Carnot's theorem can be proved based on the postulate "Heat cannot, of itself, pass…
Analogues of Khintchine's Theorem in simultaneous Diophantine approximation in the plane are proved with the classical height replaced by fairly general planar distance functions or equivalently star bodies. Khintchine's transference…
Following suggestions of T. H. Koornwinder, we give a new proof of Kummer's theorem involving Zeilberger's algorithm, the WZ method and asymptotic estimates. In the first section, we recall a classical proof given by L. J. Slater. The…
We will simplify the earlier proofs of Perelman's collapsing theorem of 3-manifolds given by Shioya-Yamaguchi and Morgan-Tian. Among other things, we use Perelman's semi-convex analysis of distance functions to construct the desired local…
