We show a pointwise estimate for the Fourier transform on the line involving the number of times the function changes monotonicity. The contrapositive of the theorem may be used to find a lower bound to the number of local maxima of a…
The two-dimensional sloshing problem is considered; it describes the transversal free oscillations of water in an open, infinitely long canal of uniform cross-section. It is proved that the fundamental eigenfrequency is simple, whereas the…
We establish the Fourier inversion for the smooth vectors in ${\rm L}^2({\rm GL}_2, \omega)$ over a number field $\mathbf{F}$, using minimal knowledge from automorphic representation theory. We point out a possible way to establish Fourier…
This note concerns exponential sheaves and the "universal" Fourier transform on them. Fourier invertibility and the subsequent Fourier miracle is demonstrated. Further, t-structures and realizations are constructed and shown to have…
We construct a transcendental entire $f:\mathbb{C}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$ such that (1) $f$ has bounded singular set, (2) $f$ has a wandering domain, and (3) each singular value of $f$ escapes to infinity under iteration by $f$.
An exact, one-to-one transform is presented that not only allows digital circular convolutions, but is free from multiplications and quantisation errors for transform lengths of arbitrary powers of two. The transform is analogous to the…
On the space of rhythms of arbitrary length with a fixed number of onsets, a self map $F$ is constructed. It is shown that for any rhythm $\mathbf{r}$ of the space there exists a nonnegative integer $k$ such that $F^k(\mathbf{r})$ falls…
In this paper we study how zeros of the Fourier transform of a function $f: \mathbb{Z}_p^d \to \mathbb{C}$ are related to the structure of the function itself. In particular, we introduce a notion of bandwidth of such functions and discuss…
We introduce Feynman-like rules to compute quivers for two loops and higher for the coloured planar $\phi^3$ theory for winding number zero. We demonstrate this for a few cases. Then we extend this further to the case of $\phi^n$ theories,…
In this paper, we begin with the Lehman-Walsh formula counting one-face maps and construct two involutions on pairs of permutations to obtain a new formula for the number $A(n,g)$ of one-face maps of genus $g$. Our new formula is in the…
There is a class of physical filtration processes where the input is adequately modeled by a continuous periodic function f (x) of bounded variation over its period, and the output depends only on certain harmonics of the Fourier expansion…
We construct an entire function $f$ with only three singular values whose order of growth can change under a quasiconformal equivalence. This is a counterexample to the Order Conjecture in the Speiser class ${\mathcal S}$ of entire…
Consider the representations of an algebraic group G. In general, polynomial invariant functions may fail to separate orbits. The invariant subring may not be finitely generated, or the number and complexity of the generators may grow…
We consider the algebras $M_p$ of Fourier multipliers and show that every bounded continuous function $f$ on $\mathbb R^d$ can be transformed by an appropriate homeomorphic change of variable into a function that belongs to $M_p(\mathbb…
We prove that, after removing a zero Hausdorff dimension exceptional set of parameters, all self-similar measures on the line have a power decay of the Fourier transform at infinity. In the homogeneous case, when all contraction ratios are…
For a smooth map $g: X \to U(N)$, where $X$ is a three-dimensional, oriented, and closed manifold, the winding number is defined as $W_3 = \frac{1}{24\pi^2} \int_{X} \mathrm{Tr}\left[(g^{-1}dg)^3\right]$. We present a discrete formulation…
Numerical results based on an extended BPM algorithm indicate that, in Marcatili's lossless tapers and bends, through-flowing waves are drastically different from standing waves. The source of this surprising behavior is inherent in…
Let $T$ be a tree on $n$ vertices. We can regard the edges of $T$ as transpositions of the vertex set; their product (in any order) is a cyclic permutation. All possible cyclic permutations arise (each exactly once) if and only if the tree…
Provided the measuring time is short enough, the full counting statistics (FCS) of the charge pumped across a barrier as a result of a series of voltage pulses are shown to be equivalent to the geometry of two planes. This formulation leads…
We introduce a new ``Winding Number Conjecture'' about maps from the $(d-1)$-skeleton of the $((d+1)(q-1))$-simplex into $\real^d$. This conjecture is equivalent to the Topological Tverberg Theorem. Furthermore, many statements about the…
