In this note we study the boundary regularity of solutions to nonlocal Dirichlet problems of the form $Lu=0$ in $\Omega$, $u=g$ in $\mathbb R^N\setminus\Omega$, in non-smooth domains $\Omega$. When $g$ is smooth enough, then it is easy to…

We consider Schr\^odinger operators $H_\alpha$ given by equation (1.1) below. We study the asymptotic behavior of the spectral density $E(H_\alpha, \lambda)$ when $\lambda$ goes to $0$ and the $L^1\to L^\infty$ dispersive estimates…

We consider the typical one-dimensional strongly degenerate parabolic operator $Pu= u_t - (x^\alpha u_x)_x$ with $0<x<\ell$ and $\alpha\in(0,2)$, controlled either by a boundary control acting at $x=\ell$, or by a locally distributed…

A singular stochastic control problem with state constraints in two-dimensions is studied. We show that the value function is $C^1$ and its directional derivatives are the value functions of certain optimal stopping problems. Guided by the…

We consider minimizers of \[ F(\lambda_1(\Omega),\ldots,\lambda_N(\Omega)) + |\Omega|, \] where $F$ is a function strictly increasing in each parameter, and $\lambda_k(\Omega)$ is the $k$-th Dirichlet eigenvalue of $\Omega$. Our main result…

Known as no fast-forwarding theorem in quantum computing, the simulation time for the Hamiltonian evolution needs to be $O(\|H\| t)$ in the worst case, which essentially states that one can not go across the multiple scales as the…

Let H be a Schr\"odinger operator defined on an unbounded domain D in R^d with Dirichlet boundary conditions (D may equal R^d in particular). Let u(x,E) be a solution of the Schr\"odinger equation (H-E)u(x,E)=0, and let B_R denote a ball of…

On a fixed smooth compact Riemann surface with boundary $(M_0,g)$, we show that for the Schr\"odinger operator $\Delta +V$ with potential $V\in C^{1,\alpha}(M_0)$ for some $\alpha>0$, the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $N|_{\Gamma}$ measured on…

In this paper we obtain a stabilization result for the Schr\"odinger equation under generic assumptions on the potential. Then we consider the Schr\"odinger equation with a potential which has a random time-dependent amplitude. We show that…

For general second order evolution equations, we prove an optimal condition on the degree of unboundedness of the damping, that rules out finite-time extinction. We show that control estimates give energy decay rates that explicitly depend…
