In this paper we investigate the use of Richardson extrapolation to estimate the convergence rates for numerical solutions to advection problems involving discontinuities. We use modified equation analysis to describe the expectation of the…
We study the excited states of the pairing Hamiltonian providing an expansion for their energy in the strong coupling limit. To assess the role of the pairing interaction we apply the formalism to the case of a heavy atomic nucleus. We show…
We give a survey at an introductory level of old and recent results in the study of critical points of solutions of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. To keep the presentation simple, we mainly consider four exemplary…
We search for approximate, but analytic solutions of the pairing problem for one pair of nucleons in many levels of a potential well. For the collective energy a general formula, independent of the details of the single particle spectrum,…
For a finite set of points $P$ in $R^d$, the function $d_P: R^d \to R^+$ measures Euclidean distance to the set $P$. We study the number of critical points of $d_P$ when $P$ is a Poisson process. In particular, we study the limit behavior…
The Hamiltonian of the spinless relativistic Coulomb problem combines the standard Coulomb interaction potential with the square-root operator of relativistic kinematics. This Hamiltonian is known to be bounded from below up to some…
The paper is devoted to the effects of superconducting pairing in small metallic grains. It turns out that at strong superconducting coupling and in the limit of large Thouless conductance one can explicitly determine the low energy…
We have studied the numerical solutions of Richardson equations of the BCS model in the limit of large number of energy levels at half-filling, and compare them with the analytic results derived by Gaudin and Richardson, which in turn leads…
We show that a noncollapsing solution below r_c can be constructed for the dynamics of randomly forced particle interacting with a dissipative boundary. The scaling analysis predicts a divergent collision rate at the boundary for the…
Richardson equations can be mapped on the classical electrostatic problem in two dimensions. We have recently suggested a new analytical approach to these equations in the thermodynamical limit, which is based on the `probability' of the…
The use of exactly-solvable Richardson-Gaudin (R-G) models to describe the physics of systems with strong pair correlations is reviewed. We begin with a brief discussion of Richardson's early work, which demonstrated the exact solvability…
Computing mountain passes is a standard way of finding critical points. We describe a numerical method for finding critical points that is convergent in the nonsmooth case and locally superlinearly convergent in the smooth finite…
We produce approximation bounds on a semidefinite programming relaxation for sparse principal component analysis. These bounds control approximation ratios for tractable statistics in hypothesis testing problems where data points are…
The constant pairing Hamiltonian holds exact solutions worked out by Richardson in the early Sixties. This exact solution of the pairing Hamiltonian regained interest at the end of the Nineties. The discret complex-energy states had been…
It is shown that the critical exponent $g_1$ related to pair-connectiveness and shortest-path (or chemical distance) scaling, recently studied by Porto et al., Dokholyan et al., and Grassberger, can be found exactly in 2d by using a…
We consider the problem of estimating the error when solving a system of differential algebraic equations. Richardson extrapolation is a classical technique that can be used to judge when computational errors are irrelevant and estimate the…
We study the critical behaviour of solutions to weakly dispersive Hamiltonian systems considered as perturbations of elliptic and hyperbolic systems of hydrodynamic type with two components. We argue that near the critical point of gradient…
We consider large random matrices $X$ with centered, independent entries but possibly different variances. We compute the normalized trace of $f(X) g(X^*)$ for $f,g$ functions analytic on the spectrum of $X$. We use these results to compute…
We present an accurate numerical determination of the crossover from classical to Ising-like critical behavior upon approach of the critical point in three-dimensional systems. The possibility to vary the Ginzburg number in our simulations…
A variational approach is used to develop a robust numerical procedure for solving the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann equation. Following Maggs et al., we construct an appropriate constrained free energy functional, such that its…
