We study the number of degree $n$ number fields with discriminant bounded by $X$. In this article, we improve an upper bound due to Schmidt on the number of such fields that was previously the best known upper bound for $6 \leq n \leq 94$.
Scalar field theory with an asymmetric potential is studied at zero temperature and high-temperature for phi^4 theory with both phi and phi^3 symmetry breaking. The equations of motion are solved numerically to obtain O(4) symmetric and…
We show a new lower bound for the maximum number of runs in a string. We prove that for any e > 0, (a -- e)n is an asymptotic lower bound, where a = 56733/60064 = 0.944542. It is superior to the previous bound 0.927 given by Franek et al.…
We consider the lagrangian of a self-interacting complex scalar field admitting generically Q-balls solutions. This model is extended by minimal coupling to electromagnetism and to gravity. A stationnary, axially-symmetric ansatz for the…
We prove that a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\R^n$ with smooth boundary has a periodic billiard trajectory with at most $n+1$ bounce times and of length less than $C_n r(\Omega)$, where $C_n$ is a positive constant which depends only on $n$,…
Starting from the original Einstein action, sometimes called the Gamma squared action, we propose a new setup to formulate modified theories of gravity. This can yield a theory with second order field equations similar to those found in…
Massless scalar fields originating in a quantum vacuum state acquire a scale-invariant spectrum of fluctuations in a matter-dominated contracting universe. We show that these isocurvature fluctuations transfer to a scale-invariant spectrum…
We consider systems of "pinned balls," i.e., balls that have fixed positions and pseudo-velocities. Pseudo-velocities change according to the same rules as those for velocities of totally elastic collisions between moving balls. The times…
In perturbation theory, the wave function of domain-wall quarks decreases exponentially with the fifth coordinate. We show that, regardless of the quark's own momentum, the fall-off rate of the one-loop wave function is equal to the slowest…
Experimental limits on the violation of four-dimensional Lorentz invariance imply that noncommutativity among ordinary spacetime dimensions must be small. In this talk, I review the most stringent bounds on noncommutative field theories and…
In this paper, we will consider generalised eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on some surfaces of infinite area. We will be interested in lower bounds on the number of nodal domains of such eigenfunctions which are included in a given bounded…
In this paper, we investigate an approach to circuit lower bounds via bounded width circuits. The approach consists of two steps: (i) We convert circuits to (deterministic or nondeterministic) bounded width circuits. (ii) We prove lower…
We consider weighted Hardy inequalities involving the distance function to the boundary of a domain in the $N$-dimensional Euclidean space with nonempty boundary. We give a lower bound for the corresponding best Hardy constant for a domain…
By using the Picard-Fuchs equation and the property of Chebyshev space to the discontinuous differential system, we obtain an upper bound of the number of limit cycles for the nongeneric quadratic reversible system when it is perturbed…
The weak-gravity bound has been discovered in several asymptotically safe gravity-matter systems. It limits the strength of gravitational fluctuations that are compatible with an ultraviolet-complete matter sector, and results from the…
For exactly solvable models of planar last passage percolation, it is known that geodesics of length $n$ exhibit transversal fluctuations at scale $n^{2/3}$ and matching (up to exponents) upper and lower bounds for the tail probabilities…
We derive lower bounds on the time needed for a quantum annealer to prepare the ground state of a target Hamiltonian. These bounds do not depend on the annealing schedule and can take the local structure of the Hamiltonian into account.…
We consider a general two-dimensional gravity model minimally or nonminimally coupled to a scalar field. The canonical form of the model is elucidated, and a general solution of the equations of motion in the massless case is reviewed. In…
We consider the generation of primordial magnetic fields in a class of bouncing models when the electromagnetic action is coupled non-minimally to a scalar field that, say, drives the background evolution. For scale factors that have the…
We derive an explicit lower bound on the radius of a ball embedded in a quaternionic hyperbolic manifold.
