Classifying interactions is key in the physical sciences, and bonding mechanisms in matter-antimatter systems remain particularly enigmatic. Here we focus on a paradigmatic example of positronium hydride (PsH) dimer composed of two protons,…

We investigate a recently developed approach [P. L. Silvestrelli, Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 053002 (2008); J. Phys. Chem. A 113, 5224 (2009)] that uses maximally localized Wannier functions to evaluate the van der Waals contribution to the…

We consider viscosity and thermal conductivity as dissipation mechanisms to derive a general dispersion relation for MHD waves propagating in a homogeneous plasma. We show that the actual dispersion relation for MHD waves in a homogeneous…

Let $n\geq 1$, $0\leq t\leq {n \choose 2}$ be arbitrary integers. Define the numbers $I_n(t)$ as the number of permutations of $[n]$ with $t$ inversions. Let $n,d\geq 1$ and $0\leq t\leq (d-1)n$ be arbitrary integers. Define {\em the…

A homogeneous polynomial S(x_1, ..., x_n) of degree r in n variables posesses a discriminant D_{n|r}(S), which vanishes if and only if the system of equations dS/dx_i = 0 has non-trivial solutions. We give an explicit formula for…

The gradient expansion of the kinetic energy functional, when applied for atoms or finite systems, usually grossly overestimates the energy in the fourth order and generally diverges in the sixth order. We avoid the divergence of the…

In this paper we study the quantitative homogenization of second-order parabolic systems with locally periodic (in both space and time) coefficients. The $O(\varepsilon)$ scale-invariant error estimate in $L^2(0, T;…

Classes of polynomial differential equations of degree n are considered. An explicit upper bound on the size of the coefficients are given which implies that each equation in the class has exactly n complex periodic solutions. In most of…

We study lower and upper bounds for the density of a diffusion process in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ in a small (but not asymptotic) time, say $\delta$. We assume that the diffusion coefficients $\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_d$ may degenerate at the…

We investigate the ultimate precision limits for quantum phase estimation in terms of the coherence, $C$, of the probe. For pure states, we give the minimum estimation variance attainable, $V(C)$, and the optimal state, in the asymptotic…

Benchmark calculations on noncovalent interactions typically exclude correlation effects beyond valence CCSD(T) owing to their steep computational cost scaling. In this work, we consider their importance for water clusters, specifically,…

In [Phys. Rev. A 70, 062101 (2004)] Gibbons et al. defined a class of discrete Wigner functions W to represent quantum states in a finite Hilbert space dimension d. I characterize a set C_d of states having non-negative W simultaneously in…

Complete vacuum polarization calculations incorporating finite nuclear size are presented for hydrogenic ions with principal quantum numbers n=1-5. Lithiumlike, sodiumlike, and copperlike ions are also treated starting with Kohn-Sham…

The Cahn-Hilliard system has been used to describe a wide number of phase separation processes, from co-polymer systems to lipid membranes. In this work the convergence properties of a closest-point based scheme is investigated. In place of…

Recently, the nonlocal van der Waals (vdW) density functionals [M. Dion, H. Rydberg, E. Schroeder, D. C. Langreth, and B. I. Lundqvist, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 246401 (2004)] have attracted considerable attention due to their good performance…

Real collective density variables $C(\boldsymbol{k})$ [c.f. Eq.\ref{Equation3})] in many-particle systems arise from non-linear transformations of particle positions, and determine the structure factor $S(\boldsymbol{k})$, where $\bf k$…

In this paper we are concerned with the Bohnenblust--Hille type inequalities for certain polynomials of bounded degree but of very large number of variables. As the polynomials will be defined on groups, one can think about the problem as…

We study the special case of $n\times n$ 1D Gaussian Hermitian random band matrices, when the covariance of the elements is determined by the matrix $J=(-W^2\triangle+1)^{-1}$. Assuming that $n\ge CW\log W\gg 1$, we prove that the averaged…

We determine the second, third, and fourth virial coefficients appearing in the density expansion of the osmotic pressure of a monodisperse polymer solution in good-solvent conditions. Using the expected large-concentration behavior, we…
