Given a closed Riemannian manifold $(M^m,g)$ and a vector field $v$ on $M$, we form the Sasaki metric $g_S$ on $TM$, and restrict it to the image of the cross section map of $M$ into $TM$ defined by $v$, whose pull back to $M$ defines a new…
We study operators on rooted graphs with a certain spherical homogeneity. These graphs are called path commuting and allow for a decomposition of the adjacency matrix and the Laplacian into a direct sum of Jacobi matrices which reflect the…
It is proved the non-existence of Hopf hypersurfaces in $G_{2}({\Bbb C}^{m+2})$, $m \geq 3$, whose normal Jacobi operator is semi-parallel, if the principal curvature of the Reeb vector field is non-vanishing and the component of the Reeb…
We construct a family of Hermitian metrics on the Hopf surface $ \mathbb{S}^3\times \mathbb{S}^1$, whose fundamental classes represent distinct cohomology classes in the Aeppli cohomology group. These metrics are locally conformally…
We study Jacobi matrices on trees whose coefficients are generated by multiple orthogonal polynomials. Hilbert space decomposition into an orthogonal sum of cyclic subspaces is obtained. For each subspace, we find generators and the…
Thermally reduced QCD leads to three dimensional SU(3) gaugefields coupled to an adjoint scalar field $A_0$. We compute the effective potential in the one-loop approximation and evaluate the VEV's of $TrA_0^2$ and $TrA_0^3$. In the Higgs…
A system of three quantum particles on the three-dimensional lattice $\Z^3$ with arbitrary "dispersion functions" having non-compact support and interacting via short-range pair potentials is considered. The energy operators of the systems…
We consider the problem of minimal volume vector fields on a given Riemann surface, specialising on the case of $M^\star$, that is, the arbitrary radius 2-sphere with two antipodal points removed. We discuss the homology theory of the unit…
The isotropic harmonic oscillator in dimension 3 separates in several different coordinate systems. Separating in a particular coordinate system defines a system of three commuting operators, one of which is the Hamiltonian. We show that…
We study the energy levels of a single particle in a homogeneous magnetic field and in an axially symmetric external potential. For potentials that are superharmonic off the central axis, we find a general ``pseudoconcave'' ordering of the…
We investigate Gauss maps associated to great circle fibrations of $S^3$. We show that the associated Gauss map to such a fibration is harmonic (respectively minimal) if and only if the unit vector field generating the great circle…
The Faddeev-Hopf model [1] supporting Hopfions was shown to emerge in the low-energy limit of four-dimensional scalar quantum electrodynamics (QED) with two charged scalar fields [2, 3]. Faddeev and Noemi conjectured that the Hopfions and…
Quantization of a system constrained to move on a sphere is considered by taking a square root of the ``on sphere condition''. We arrive at the fibre bundle structure of the Hopf map in the cases of $S^{2} $and $S^{4}$. This leads to more…
We calculate the one-electron spectral function of the attractive (negative-$U$) Hubbard model. We work in the intermediate coupling and low density regime and obtain the self-energy in an approximate analytical form. The excitation…
Jacobi operators appear as kinetic operators of several classes of noncommutative field theories (NCFT) considered recently. This paper deals with the case of bounded Jacobi operators. A set of tools mainly issued from operator and spectral…
We study a variational model for a diblock-copolymer/homopolymer blend. The energy functional is a sharp-interface limit of a generalisation of the Ohta-Kawasaki energy. In one dimension, on the real line and on the torus, we prove…
The quantum deformation of the Hopf algebra describes the skeleton of quantum field theory, namely its characterizing feature consisting in the existence of infinitely many unitarily inequivalent representations of the canonical commutation…
We prove that the set of parameters for which a virtual level appears at the edge of the continuous spectrum of a Jacobi matrix with a finite-rank diagonal perturbation constitutes an algebraic variety of codimension one. This variety…
In this paper, we first develop a notion of dominated splitting for $\mathbb M(2,\mathbb C)$-sequences and show it is a stable property under $\|\cdot \|_\infty$-perturbation. Then we show an energy parameter belongs to the spectrum of a…
By combining variational Monte Carlo (VMC) and complete-basis-set limit Hartree-Fock (HF) calculations, we have obtained near-exact correlation energies for low-density same-spin electrons on a three-dimensional sphere (3-sphere), i.e.~the…
