Some classic second-order sufficient optimality conditions in the calculus of variations are shown to be equivalent, while also introducing a new equivalent second-order condition which is extremely easy to apply: simply integrate a linear…
Quantum fields in compact stars can be amplified due to a semiclassical instability. This generic feature of scalar fields coupled to curvature may affect the birth and the equilibrium structure of relativistic stars. We point out that the…
Although the Hardy inequality corresponding to one quadratic singularity, with optimal constant, does not admit any extremal function, it is well known that such a potential can be improved, in the sense that a positive term can be added to…
We provide a new result on the existence of extremal solutions for second-order Dirichlet problems with deviation argument. As a novelty in this work, the nonlinearity need not be continuous or monotone. In order to obtain this new result,…
We continue the study from \cite{BrendleFreidmanMontoya, vandervlugtlocalizationcardinals} of localization cardinals $\mfb_\kappa(\in^*)$ and $\mfd_\kappa(\in^*)$ and their variants at regular uncountable $\kappa$. We prove that if $\kappa$…
We consider the integration of two-dimensional, piecewise constant functions with respect to copulas. By drawing a connection to linear assignment problems, we can give optimal upper and lower bounds for such integrals and construct the…
Integral discriminants provide a simple and fundamental model for non-Gaussian integrals, associated with homogeneous polynomials of degree r in n variables. We argue that, in this context, the study of correlators is equally if not more…
We compute the best constants in some second order dilation invariant inequalities, with weights being powers of the distance from the origin.
We enhance the psyquandle counting invariant for singular knots and pseudoknots using quivers analogously to quandle coloring quivers. This enables us to extend the in-degree polynomial invariants from quandle coloring quiver theory to the…
We consider cardinal invariants determined from Hausdorff measures. We separate many cardinal invariants of Hausdorff measure $0$ ideals using two models that separate many cardinal invariants of Yorioka ideals at once from earlier work.…
The main goal of this paper is to generalize several results concerning cardinal invariants to the statements about the associated families of sets. We also discuss the relationship between the additive properties of sets and their Borel…
Assuming four strongly compact cardinals, it is consistent that all entries in Cicho\'n's diagram are pairwise different, more specifically that \[ \aleph_1 < \mathrm{add}(\mathrm{null}) < \mathrm{cov}(\mathrm{null}) < \mathfrak{b} <…
Given a system of analytic functions and an approximate zero, we introduce inflation to transform this system into one with a regular quadratic zero. This leads to a method for isolating a cluster of zeros of the given system.
We prove existence and uniqueness of absolutely continuous invariant measures for generalizations of Viana maps admitting a higher order critical point introduced in arXiv:2312.00906. As a consequence of our approach, we obtain…
After sketching recent advances and subtleties in classical relativistically covariant field theories, we give in this short Note some indications as to how the deformation quantization approach can be used to solve or at least give a…
Given a system of analytic functions and an approximation to a cluster of zeros, we wish to construct two regions containing the cluster and no other zeros of the system. The smaller region tightly contains the cluster while the larger…
By means of a variational approach we find new series representations both for well known mathematical constants, such as $\pi$ and the Catalan constant, and for mathematical functions, such as the Riemann zeta function. The series that we…
We use the core model for sequences of measures to prove a new lower bound for the consistency strength of the failure of the SCH: THEOREM (i) If there is a singular strong limit cardinal $\kappa$ such that $2^\kappa > kappa^+$ then there…
We use lower and upper solutions to investigate the existence of the greatest and the least solutions for quasimonotone systems of measure differential equations. The established results are then used to study the solvability of Stieltjes…
The discrete-time, the quantum, and the continuous calculus of variations have been recently unified and extended. Two approaches are followed in the literature: one dealing with minimization of delta integrals; the other dealing with…
