The paper presents a numerical study for the finite element method with anisotropic meshes. We compare the accuracy of the numerical solutions on quasi-uniform, isotropic, and anisotropic meshes for a test problem which combines several…
Robust mixed finite element methods are developed for a quad-curl singular perturbation problem. Lower order H(grad curl)-nonconforming but H(curl)-conforming finite elements are constructed, which are extended to nonconforming finite…
We give details on how to calculate spectral functions and Green's functions for finite systems using the Chebyshev polynomial expansion method. We apply the method to a finite Anderson impurity system, and furthermore give details on how…
In this short note, we will give a generalization of the indefinite Schwarz-Pick inequality due to Seto [8]. Our approach is based on a connection between complex geometry and the geometry of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, which was…
At the heart of convex geometry lies the observation that the volume of convex bodies behaves as a polynomial. Many geometric inequalities may be expressed in terms of the coefficients of this polynomial, called mixed volumes. Among the…
A class of quasilinear singularly perturbed boundary value problems with a turning point of attractive type is considered. The problems are solved numerically by a finite-difference scheme on a special discretization mesh which is dense…
Given an open and bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, we consider the problem of minimizing the ratio between the $s-$perimeter and the $N-$dimensional Lebesgue measure among subsets of $\Omega$. This is the nonlocal version of the…
In this paper we show that embedded and compact $C^1$ manifolds have finite integral Menger curvature if and only if they are locally graphs of certain Sobolev-Slobodeckij spaces. Furthermore, we prove that for some intermediate energies of…
We consider skew extensions of expanding maps by compact Lie groups. For a class of natural invariant measures, we prove an explicit lower bound on the rate of (exponential) mixing involving topological pressure. Proof uses representation…
In this article it is shown that the equilateral triangle maximizes the Cheeger constant and minimizes the torsional rigidity among shapes having a fixed minimal width. The proof techniques use direct comparisons with simpler shapes,…
The spectral gap of a Markov chain can be bounded by the spectral gaps of constituent "restriction" chains and a "projection" chain, and the strength of such a bound is the content of various decomposition theorems. In this paper, we…
Applying quantitative perturbation theory for linear operators, we prove non-asymptotic limit theorems for Markov chains whose transition kernel has a spectral gap in an arbitrary Banach algebra of functions X . The main results are…
We give a purely complex geometric proof of the existence of the Bergman kernel expansion. Our method provides a sharper estimate, and in the case that the metrics are real analytic, we prove that the remainder decays faster than any…
We study functional inequalities for Markov chains on discrete spaces with entropic Ricci curvature bounded from below. Our main results are that when curvature is non-negative, but not necessarily positive, the spectral gap, the Cheeger…
We present simple randomized and exchangeable improvements of Markov's inequality, as well as Chebyshev's inequality and Chernoff bounds. Our variants are never worse and typically strictly more powerful than the original inequalities. The…
A proof for the lower bound is provided for the smallest eigenvalue of finite element equations with arbitrary conforming simplicial meshes. The bound has a similar form as the one by Graham and McLean [SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 44 (2006), pp.…
The Markov-Bernstein type inequalities between the norms of functions and of their derivatives are analysed for complex exponential polynomials. We establish a relation between the sharp constants in those inequalities and the stability…
This paper consists of four parts. In the first part, we explain what eigenvalues we are interested in and show the difficulties of the study on the first (non-trivial) eigenvalue through examples. In the second part, we present some (dual)…
In this paper we survey some recent results on the central limit theorem and its weak invariance principle for stationary sequences. We also describe several maximal inequalities that are the main tool for obtaining the invariance…
Let $X$ be a compact connected CR manifold of dimension $2n-1, n\geq 2$. We assume that there is a transversal CR locally free $S^1$ action on $X$. Let $L^k$ be the $k$-th power of a rigid CR line bundle $L$ over $X$. Without any assumption…
