It is known that a subharmonic function of finite order $\rho$ can be approximated by the logarithm of the modulus of an entire function at the point $z$ outside an exceptional set up to $C\log|z|$. In this article we prove that if such an…

This paper is concerned with approximations and related discretization error estimates for the normal derivatives of solutions of linear elliptic partial differential equations. In order to illustrate the ideas, we consider the Poisson…

In this article, we focus on the global stabilizability problem for a class of second order uncertain stochastic control systems, where both the drift term and the diffusion term are nonlinear functions of the state variables and the…

The Kneser--Poulsen Conjecture states that if the centers of a family of $N$ unit balls in ${\mathbb E}^d$ is contracted, then the volume of the union (resp., intersection) does not increase (resp., decrease). We consider two types of…

Recently, Gilmer proved the first constant lower bound for the union-closed sets conjecture via an information-theoretic argument. The heart of the argument is an entropic inequality involving the OR function of two i.i.d.\ binary vectors,…

The manifold hypothesis says that natural high-dimensional data lie on or around a low-dimensional manifold. The recent success of statistical and learning-based methods in very high dimensions empirically supports this hypothesis,…

In this paper we present a conditional proof of Wojtkowski's Ergodicity Conjecture for the system of 1D perfectly elastic balls falling down in a half line under constant gravitational acceleration. Namely, we prove that almost every such…

In this paper, we consider a maximizing problem associated with the Sobolev type embedding on the space of bounded variation. We show that, although the maximizing problem suffers from both of the non-compactness of vanishing and…

We establish the existence and finiteness of equilibrium states for a class of partially hyperbolic endomorphisms. In our first result, we assume that the central direction is simple. In the second result, we consider the case where there…

We consider the problem of minimizing a sum of non-convex functions over a compact domain, subject to linear inequality and equality constraints. Approximate solutions can be found by solving a convexified version of the problem, in which…

In this paper, we prove the existence of nontrivial unbounded domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1},n\geq1$, bifurcating from the straight cylinder $B\times\mathbb{R}$ (where $B$ is the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$), such that the…

A branch and bound algorithm is developed for global optimization. Branching in the algorithm is accomplished by subdividing the feasible set using ellipses. Lower bounds are obtained by replacing the concave part of the objective function…

Eshelby showed that if an inclusion is of elliptic or ellipsoidal shape then for any uniform elastic loading the field inside the inclusion is uniform. He then conjectured that the converse is true, i.e., that if the field inside an…

In 1968, Krzyz conjectured that for non-vanishing holomorphic functions $f(z) = c_0 + c_1 z + \dots$ in the unit disk with $|f(z)| \leq 1$, we have the sharp bound $|c_n| \leq 2/e$ for all $n \geq 1$, with equality only for the function…

Tsfasman-Boguslavsky Conjecture predicts the maximum number of zeros that a system of linearly independent homogeneous polynomials of the same positive degree with coefficients in a finite field can have in the corresponding projective…

The first integral characteristic of the two--centres problem is proven to be an approximate integral (in the sense of N.N.Nekhorossev) to the three--body problem, at least if the masses are very different and the particles are constrained…

Let ${\mathcal D}(n)$ be the maximal determinant for $n \times n$ $\{\pm 1\}$-matrices, and $\mathcal R(n) = {\mathcal D}(n)/n^{n/2}$ be the ratio of ${\mathcal D}(n)$ to the Hadamard upper bound. Using the probabilistic method, we prove…

In this article we study a Bernoulli-type free boundary problem and generalize a work of Henrot and Shahgholian in \cite{HS1} to $\mathcal{A}$-harmonic PDEs. These are quasi-linear elliptic PDEs whose structure is modeled on the $p$-Laplace…

We prove a sharp isoperimetric inequality for the second nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplacian on $S^m$. For $S^{2}$, the second nonzero eigenvalue becomes maximal as the surface degenerates to two disjoint spheres, by a result of…

In the ergodic theory of semi-dispersing billiards the Local Ergodic Theorem, proved by Chernov and Sinai in 1987, plays a central role. So far, all existing proofs of this theorem had to use an annoying global hypothesis, namely the almost…
