Tropical mathematics is used to establish a correspondence between certain microscopic and macroscopic objects in statistical models. Tropical algebra gives a common framework for macrosystems (subsets) and their elementary constituents…

This paper is about elliptic and parabolic partial differential operators with discontinuities in the gradient which are compatible with a Finsler norm in a sense to be made precise. Examples of this type of problems arise in a number of…

We study the continuity of weak solutions for quasilinear elliptic systems with source terms of critical growth arising from a transport-energy structure. The latter occurs frequently in connection with the first balance principles of…

The contact formalism, a useful tool for analyzing short-range correlations, is generalized here for systems with coupled channels, such as in nuclear physics. The relevant asymptotic form is presented and contact matrices are defined.…

Parameter identification problems in partial differential equations (PDEs) consist in determining one or more functional coefficient in a PDE. In this article, the Bayesian nonparametric approach to such problems is considered. Focusing on…

We propose to view hermitian metrics on trivial holomorphic vector bundles $E\to\Omega$ as noncommutative analogs of functions defined on the base $\Omega$, and curvature as the notion corresponding to the Laplace operator or…

An old problem in mathematical physics deals with the structure of the dispersion relation of the Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta+V(x)$ in $R^n$ with periodic potential near the edges of the spectrum. A well known conjecture says that…

Employing a limiting case of a conjecture for constructing piecewise separable-variables functions, the elements of the Pseudoanalytic Function Theory are used for numerically approaching solutions of the forward Dirichlet boundary value…

We consider a singularly perturbed Dirichlet spectral problem for an elliptic operator of second order. The coefficients of the operator are assumed to be locally periodic and oscillating in the scale $\varepsilon$. We describe the leading…

In this paper we study a general class of nonlinear elliptic problems in divergence form. First, we prove that the solutions to these problems satisfy a convexity property when the given domain is strictly convex. Then, making use of this…

We consider the elliptic differential operator defined as the sum of the minimum and the maximum eigenvalue of the Hessian matrix, which can be viewed as a degenerate elliptic Isaacs operator, in dimension larger than two. Despite of…

This paper argues that every quantum system can be understood as a sufficiently general kind of stochastic process unfolding in an old-fashioned configuration space according to ordinary notions of probability. This argument is based on an…

We consider the nonlinear Neumann problem for fully nonlinear elliptic PDEs on a quadrant. We establish a comparison theorem for viscosity sub and supersolutions of the nonlinear Neumann problem. The crucial argument in the proof of the…

This paper revisits a well-studied anti-plane shear deformation problem formulated by Knowles in 1976 and analytical solutions in general nonlinear elasticity proposed by Gao since 1998. Based on minimum potential principle, a…

This article establishes a bilinear embedding for second-order divergence-form operators with complex coefficients, characterized by the simultaneous presence of first-order terms and negative potentials. This work provides a further…

We reduce the problem of proving decay estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear PDEs to proving analogous estimates for solutions of one-dimensional ordinary differential inequalities. Our machinery allow the ellipticity to…

We study the effective potential for composite operators. Introducing a source coupled to the composite operator, we define the effective potential by a Legendre transformation. We find that in three or fewer dimensions, one can use the…

For a general nonlinear control system, we study the problem of small time local attainability of a target which is the closure of an open set. When the target is smooth and locally the sublevel set of a smooth function, we develop second…

In this work we establish new equivalences for the concept of $p$-parabolic Riemannian manifolds. We define a concept of comparison principle for elliptic PDE's on exterior domains of a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ and prove that $M$ is…

A relationship between two old mathematical subjects is observed: the theory of hypergeometric functions and the separability in classical mechanics. Separable potential perturbations of the integrable billiard systems and the Jacobi…
