The second eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian is shown to be maximal for a spherical cap among simply connected Jordan domains on the 2-sphere, for substantial intervals of positive and negative Robin parameters and areas. Geodesic disks in…
The space of Lam\'e functions of order m is isomorphic to the space of pairs (elliptic curve, Abelian differential) where the differential has a single zero of order 2m at the origin and m double poles with vanishing residues. We describe…
We study the classical Liouville field theory on Riemann surfaces of genus $g>1$ in the presence of vertex operators associated with branch points of orders $m_i>1$. In order to do so, we consider the generalized Schottky space…
A function on a discrete group is weakly combable if its discrete derivative with respect to a combing can be calculated by a finite state automaton. A weakly combable function is bicombable if it is Lipschitz in both the left and right…
We establish a Fenchel-Moreau type theorem for proper convex functions $f\colon X\to \bar{L}^0$, where $(X, Y, \langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ is a dual pair of Banach spaces and $\bar L^0$ is the space of all extended real-valued functions…
We investigate certain Liouville integrable systems constructed earlier via reduction of the quasi-Hamiltonian double of $\mathrm{SU}(n)$. These systems live on compact connected symplectic manifolds of dimension $2(n-1)$ and can be…
The functional determinants of the GJMS scalar operators, P_{2k}, on even-dimensional spheres are computed via Barnes multiple gamma functions relying on the numerical availability of the digamma function. For the critical k=d/2 case, it is…
Let $M$ be a compact oriented 3-manifold with non-empty boundary consisting of surfaces of genii $>1$ such that the interior of $M$ is hyperbolizable. We show that for each spherical cone-metric $d$ on $\partial M$ such that all cone-angles…
The 3-dimensional Heisenberg group can be equipped with three different types of left-invariant Lorentzian metric, according to whether the center of the Lie algebra is spacelike, timelike or null. Using the second of these types, we study…
In this paper, we describe the irreducible spherical functions of fundamental $K$-types associated with the pair $(G,K)=({\mathrm{SO}}(n+1),{\mathrm{SO}}(n))$ in terms of matrix hypergeometric functions. The output of this description is…
A series of conjectures is obtained as further investigation of the integral transformation I(alpha) introduced in the previous paper. A Macdonald-type difference operator D is introduced. It is conjectured that D and I(alpha) are…
Let $Z_{r,R}$ be the class of all continuous functions $f$ on the annulus $\Ann(r,R)$ in the real hyperbolic space $\mathbb B^n$ with spherical means $M_sf(x)=0$, whenever $s>0$ and $x\in \mathbb B^n$ are such that the sphere $S_s(x)\subset…
We present an inductive strategy to show the existence of rational curves on compact Kaehler manifolds which are not minimal models but have a pseudoeffective canonical bundle. The tool for this inductive strategy is a weak subadjunction…
We use N=2 harmonic and projective superspaces to formulate the most general `Ansatz' for the SU(2)_R invariant hypermultiplet low-energy effective action (LEEA) in four dimensions, which describes the two-parametric family of the…
In this article we study some properties of the discrete convolution of Liouville function $S(n):=\sum_{m_{1}+m_{2}=n}\lambda\left(m_{1}\right)\lambda\left(m_{2}\right)$, which is a Goldbach-type counting function of representations. In…
Consider the surface measure $\mu$ on a sphere in a nonvertical hyperplane on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n\ge 2$, and the convolution $f*\mu$. Form the associated maximal function $Mf=\sup_{t>0}|f*\mu_t|$ generated by the…
For a two-dimensional canonical system $y'(t)=zJH(t)y(t)$ on some interval $(a,b)$ whose Hamiltonian $H$ is a.e. positive semi-definite and which is regular at $a$ and in the limit point case at $b$, denote by $q_H$ its Weyl coefficient. De…
In this article we give a criterion for the existence of a metric of curvature $1$ on a $2$-sphere with $n$ conical singularities of prescribed angles $2\pi\vartheta_1,\dots,2\pi\vartheta_n$ and non-coaxial holonomy. Such a necessary and…
A nonrelativistic particle on a circle and subject to a cos^{-2}(k phi) potential is related to the two-dimensional (dihedral) Coxeter system I_2(k), for k in N. For such `dihedral systems' we construct the action-angle variables and…
We show that every operator in $L^{2}$ has an associated measure on a space of functions and prove that it can be used to find solutions to abstract Cauchy problems, including partial differential equations. We find explicit formulas to…
