The vector space $V^k$ of the eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the three sphere $S^3$, corresponding to the same eigenvalue $lambda_k = -k (k +2)$, has dimension $(k + 1)^2$. After recalling the standard bases for $V^k$, we introduce a…
The Fermion Spherical harmonics [$Y_\ell^{m}(\theta,\phi)$ for half-odd-integer $\ell$ and $m$ - presented in a previous paper] are shown to have the same eigenfunction properties as the well-known Boson Spherical Harmonics…
The wave functions of a quantum isotropic harmonic oscillator in N-space modified by barriers at the coordinate hyperplanes can be expressed in terms of certain generalized spherical harmonics. These are associated with a product-type…
Spherical Harmonics, $Y_\ell^m(\theta,\phi)$, are derived and presented (in a Table) for half-odd-integer values of $\ell$ and $m$. These functions are eigenfunctions of $L^2$ and $L_z$ written as differential operators in the…
The possibility that our space is multi - rather than singly - connected has gained a renewed interest after the discovery of the low power for the first multipoles of the CMB by WMAP. To test the possibility that our space is a…
The spherical harmonics $Y_{\ell m}(\theta,\varphi)$ are complex-valued functions on the surface of a sphere, and have found widespread application in physics and astronomy. Every physics students knows them from quantum mechanics and…
Scalar, vector and tensor harmonics on the three-sphere were introduced originally to facilitate the study of various problems in gravitational physics. These harmonics are defined as eigenfunctions of the covariant Laplace operator which…
Any homogeneous polynomial $P(x, y, z)$ of degree $d$, being restricted to a unit sphere $S^2$, admits essentially a unique representation of the form $\lambda_0 + \sum_{k = 1}^d \lambda_k [\prod_{j = 1}^k L_{kj}]$, where $L_{kj}$'s are…
We show that the space $\mathcal{H}(\Omega)$ of holomorphic functions $F:\Omega\to\mathbb{C}$, where ${\Omega=\{(z,w)\in\widehat{\mathbb{C}}^2\,:\, z\cdot w\neq 1\}}$, possesses an orthogonal Schauder basis consisting of distinguished…
We present a comprehensive construction of scalar, vector and tensor harmonics on maximally symmetric three-dimensional spaces. Our formalism relies on the introduction of spin-weighted spherical harmonics and a generalized helicity basis…
The mathematical representations of data in the Spherical Harmonic (SH) domain has recently regained increasing interest in the machine learning community. This technical report gives an in-depth introduction to the theoretical foundation…
Across many areas of physics, multipole expansions are used to simplify problems, solve differential equations, calculate integrals, and process experimental data. Spherical harmonics are the commonly used basis functions for a multipole…
As shown recently [Phys. Rev. E 95, 033307 (2017)], spheroidal harmonics expansions are well suited for the external solution of Laplace's equation for a point source outside a spherical object. Their intrinsic singularity matches the line…
We build a family of explicit one-forms on $S^3$ which are shown to form a complete set of eigenmodes for the Laplace-de Rahm operator.
In this paper, we first give a convenient formula for bi-Laplacian on a sphere and the complete description of its eigenvalues, buckling eigenvalues, and their corresponding eigenfunctions. We then show that the radial (or rotationally…
We introduce the harmonic virtual element method (harmonic VEM), a modification of the virtual element method (VEM) for the approximation of the 2D Laplace equation using polygonal meshes. The main difference between the harmonic VEM and…
Let $\Sigma$ be a closed embedded minimal hypersurface in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{m+1}$ and let $\Lambda=\max\limits_{\Sigma}|A|$ be the norm of its second fundamental form. In this work we prove that the first eigenvalue of the…
A new form of time-harmonic Maxwells equations is developed and proposed for numerical modeling. It is written for the magnetic field strength, electric displacement, vector potential and the scalar potential. There are several attractive…
The asymptotic behavior of the first eigenvalues of magnetic Laplacian operators with large magnetic fields and Neumann realization in polyhedral domains is characterized by a hierarchy of model problems. We investigate properties of the…
A spherical conical metric $g$ on a surface $\Sigma$ is a metric of constant curvature $1$ with finitely many isolated conical singularities. The uniformization problem for such metrics remains largely open when at least one of the cone…
