We study homogenization for a class of generalized Langevin equations (GLEs) with state-dependent coefficients and exhibiting multiple time scales. In addition to the small mass limit, we focus on homogenization limits, which involve taking…
We introduce a class of Boltzmann equations on the real line, which constitute extensions of the classical Kac caricature. The collisional gain operators are defined by smoothing transformations with quite general properties. By…
Homogenization is studied for a nonlinear elliptic boundary-value problem with a large nonlinear potential. More specifically we are interested in the asymptotic behavior of a sequence of p-Laplacians of the form $$…
Most cosmological models studied today are based on the assumption of homogeneity and isotropy. Observationally one can find evidence that supports these assumptions on very large scales, the strongest being the almost isotropy of the…
Near-optimal computational complexity of an adaptive stochastic Galerkin method with independently refined spatial meshes for elliptic partial differential equations is shown. The method takes advantage of multilevel structure in expansions…
This paper is concerned with quantitative homogenization of second-order parabolic systems with periodic coefficients varying rapidly in space and time, in different scales. We obtain large-scale interior and boundary Lipschitz estimates as…
We consider the Standard Model extended by a heavy scalar singlet in different regions of parameter space and construct the appropriate low-energy effective field theories up to first nontrivial order. This top-down exercise in effective…
We consider the stochastic heat equation whose solution is observed discretely in space and time. An asymptotic analysis of power variations is presented including the proof of a central limit theorem. It generalizes the theory from…
The nonrelativistic limit of a semilinear field equation is considered in a uniform and isotropic space.The scale-function of the space is constructed based on the Einstein equation.The Cauchy problem of the limit-equation is considered,and…
We analyze the fully relativistic, field-theoretical treatment of the scalar Coulomb problem. We work in a truncated Hilbert-Fock space containing the two-constituent states and the two-constituent-and-one-massless-exchange-particle states.…
Increasing the number $N$ of elements of a system typically makes the entropy to increase. The question arises on {\it what particular entropic form} we have in mind and {\it how it increases} with $N$. Thermodynamically speaking it makes…
The isoscaling parameter usually denoted by $\alpha$ depends upon both the symmetry energy coefficient and the isotopic contents of the dissociating systems. We compute $\alpha$ in theoretical models: first in a simple mean field model and…
Cosmology in extended theories of gravity is considered assuming the Palatini variational principle, for which the metric and connection are independent variables. The field equations are derived to linear order in perturbations about the…
We perform the periodic homogenization (i.e. $\eps\to 0$) of the non-stationary Stokes-Nernst-Planck-Poisson system using two-scale convergence, where $\eps$ is a suitable scale parameter. The objective is to investigate the influence of…
We study the finite-size scaling behaviour at the critical point, resulting from the addition of a homogeneous size-dependent perturbation, decaying as an inverse power of the system size. The scaling theory is first formulated in a general…
We consider the homogenization of a semilinear elliptic equation where the coefficients of the second-order differential operator may be discontinuous. We establish the existence and uniqueness of the fine-scale solution, followed by an a…
This work is concerned with fractional Gaussian fields, i.e. Gaussian fields whose covariance operator is given by the inverse fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{-s}$ (where, in particular, we include the case $s >1$). We define a lattice…
The averaging problem in cosmology and the approach of macroscopic gravity to resolve the problem is discussed. The averaged Einstein equations of macroscopic gravity are modified on cosmological scales by the macroscopic gravitational…
We establish the existence and nonexistence of entire solutions to a semilinear elliptic problem whose nonlinearity is the critical power multiplied by a function that takes the value 1 in an open bounded region and the value -1 in its…
How does an electrochemical interface respond to changes in the electrode potential? How does the response affect the key properties of the system - energetics, excess charge, capacitance? Essential questions key to ab-initio simulations of…
