We propose an approach for calculating one-loop effective actions and vacuum energies in quantum field theory. Spectral functions are functions defined by the eigenvalues of an operator. One-loop effective actions and vacuum energies in…
Transformation of the conventional radial Schr\"odinger equation defined on the interval $\,r\in[0,\infty)$ into an equivalent form defined on the finite domain $\,y(r)\in [a,b]\,$ allows the s-wave scattering length $a_s$ to be exactly…
The Schr\"{o}dinger equation, in hyperspherical coordinates, is solved in closed form for a system of three particles on a line, interacting via pair delta functions. This is for the case of equal masses and potential strengths. The…
The physical information encoded in the cosmological late-time wavefunction of the universe is tied to its singularity structure and its behaviour as such singularities are approached. One important singularity is identified by the…
The coordinate asymptotics of the wave function for the problem of scattering of three particles with Coulomb interaction is constructed. Representation of hyperspherical functions is used to reduce the Schr\"odinger equation to a system of…
We extend the analysis of asymmetric Dark Matter relic density with Sommerfeld enhancement to the case where the mediator is massive. In asymmetric Dark Matter models, the asymmetric Dark Matter is assumed to couple to light scalar or…
A new set of vector solutions to Maxwell's equations based on solutions to the wave equation in spheroidal coordinates allows laser beams to be described beyond the paraxial approximation. Using these solutions allows us to calculate the…
The perturbation method in supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSYQM) is used to study the spheroidal wave functions' eigenvalue problem. Expanding the super-potential in series of the parameter alpha, the first order term of ground…
A nonlinear Helmholtz equation (NLH) with high wave number and Sommerfeld radiation condition is approximated by the perfectly matched layer (PML) technique and then discretized by the linear finite element method (FEM).…
Starting with Maxwell's equations, we derive the fundamental results of the Huygens-Fresnel-Kirchhoff and Rayleigh-Sommerfeld theories of scalar diffraction and scattering. These results are then extended to cover the case of vector…
A formula for supershell partition functions, which play a major role in the Super Transition Array approach to radiative-opacity calculations, is derived as a functional of the distribution of energies within the supershell. It consists in…
We present an elementary physical space argument to establish local integrated decay estimates for the perturbed wave equation $\Box_g \phi = \epsilon \beta^a \partial_a \phi$ on the exterior of the Schwarzschild geometry $(\mathcal{M},g)$.…
We report ab initio calculations of the S wave pairing gap in neutron matter calculated using realistic nuclear Hamiltonians that include two- and three-body interactions. We use a trial state, properly optimized to capture the essential…
The computation of the emitted radiation by an accelerated external particle can be addressed in a gauge theory with the insertion of a Wilson loop. With the addition of conformal symmetry this problem is consistently formalized in terms of…
We show how the image method can be used together with a recent method developed by C. Eberlein and R. Zietal to obtain the dispersive van der Waals interaction between an atom and a perfectly conducting surface of arbitrary shape. We…
Single-component ultracold atomic Fermi gases are usually described using noninteracting many-fermion models. However, recent experiments reached a regime where $p$-wave interactions among identical fermionic atoms are important. In this…
Asymptotic eigenvalues and eigenfunctions for the Orr-Sommerfeld equation in two and three dimensional incompressible flows on an infinite domain and on a semi-infinite domain are obtained. Two configurations are considered, one in which a…
A new {\it ab initio} theoretical formulation to calculate $Z_{eff}$ and hence the positron annihilation rates is presented using the on-shell and half-offshell T-matrix scattering amplitudes without any explicit use of the scattering wave…
We revisit the solution due to Sommerfeld of a problem in classical electrodynamics, namely, that of the propagation of an electromagnetic axially symmetric surface wave (a low-attenuation single TM$_{01}$ mode) in a cylindrical metallic…
This paper presents a new approach for the computation of eigenvalues of the generalized spheroidal wave equations. The novelty of the present method is in the use of the analytical derivatives of the eigenvalues to minimize losses in…
