The fundamental gap is the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator (and the Laplacian, in particular). For horoconvex domains in hyperbolic space, Nguyen, Stancu and Wei conjectured that it is…

We provide a rigorous justification of the linearized Boltzmann- and Landau equations from interacting particle systems with long-range interaction. The result shows that the fluctuations of Hamiltonian $N$- particle systems governed by…
