We construct classical algorithms computing an approximation of the ground state energy of an arbitrary $k$-local Hamiltonian acting on $n$ qubits. We first consider the setting where a good ``guiding state'' is available, which is the main…
We consider systems of conservation laws endowed with a convex entropy. We show the contraction, up to a translation, to extremal entropic shocks, for a pseudo-distance based on the notion of relative entropy. The contraction holds for…
In this work, we establish that discontinuous Galerkin methods are capable of producing reliable approximations for a broad class of nonlinear variational problems. In particular, we demonstrate that these schemes provide essential…
We consider a large class of interacting particle systems in 1D described by an energy whose interaction potential is singular and non-local. This class covers Riesz gases (in particular, log gases) and applications to plasticity and…
We introduce new techniques that can preserve unitarity of the system including ghost particles. Negative norms of the particles can be involved in zero-norm states by constraints of the physical space. These are useful to apply the…
For a next-nearest neighbour pair interaction model in a periodic domain, a priori and a posteriori analyses of the quasinonlocal quasicontinuum method (QNL-QC) are presented. The results are valid for large deformations and essentially…
We investigate the limits of applicability of the quasi-static approximation in cosmologies featuring general models of dark energy or modified gravity. We show that, at best, the quasi-static approximation breaks down outside of the sound…
We propose a theoretically consistent modification of gravity in the infrared, which is compatible with all current experimental observations. This is an analog of Higgs mechanism in general relativity, and can be thought of as arising from…
This paper is committed to calculations near a type of future singularity driven by phantom energy. At the singularities considered, the scale factor remains finite but its derivative diverges. The general behavior of barotropic phantom…
Despite the impressive numerical performance of the quasi-Newton and Anderson/nonlinear acceleration methods, their global convergence rates have remained elusive for over 50 years. This study addresses this long-standing issue by…
We devise variants of classical nonconforming methods for symmetric elliptic problems. These variants differ from the original ones only by transforming discrete test functions into conforming functions before applying the load functional.…
The paper addresses an escape of a classical particle from a potential well under harmonic forcing. Most dangerous/efficient escape dynamics reveals itself in conditions of 1:1 resonance and can be described in the framework of isolated…
Action-at-a-distance electrodynamics - alternative approach to field theory - can be extended to cosmological models using conformal symmetry. An advantage of this is that the origin of arrow of time in electromagnetism can be attributed to…
This paper presents a fast first-order method for solving the quasi-static contact problem with the Coulomb friction. It is known that this problem can be formulated as a second-order cone linear complementarity problem, for which…
Phenomenological rules play a central role in the design of chemical reactions and materials with targeted properties. Typically, these are formulated heuristically in terms of non-interacting orbitals and bands, yet show remarkable…
In this paper we study a novel spin chain with nearest-neighbors interactions depending on the sites coordinates, which in some sense is intermediate between the Heisenberg chain and the spin chains of Haldane-Shastry type. We show that…
We argue that most of the relativistic 3-D (quasipotential) equations used in hadron physics are inconsistent with the discrete symmetries like charge conjugation and CPT, yielding an incorrect Lorentz structure for the calculated Green's…
The pseudopotential method is one of the most popular extensions of the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for phase change and multiphase flow simulation. One attractive feature of the original proposed method consists on its simplicity of…
A multiple scattering formulation is used to calculate the force, arising from fluctuating scalar fields, between distinct bodies described by $\delta$-function potentials, so-called semitransparent bodies. (In the limit of strong coupling,…
