In this paper we obtain new estimates of the Hadamard fractional derivatives of a function at its extreme points. The extremum principle is then applied to show that the initial-boundary-value problem for linear and nonlinear…

This paper is devoted to the study of the existence of positive solutions for a problem related to a higher order fractional differential equation involving a nonlinear term depending on a fractional differential operator,…

We investigate the theory of finite observables, i.e., resolutions of the finite-dimensional identity by means of positive operators, that have a physical interpretation in terms of measurement schemes. We focus on extremal and rank-one…

In this paper, we study the positive solutions to the following singular and non local elliptic problem posed in a bounded and smooth domain $\Omega\subset \R^N$, $N> 2s$: % \begin{eqnarray*} (P_\lambda)\left\{\begin{array}{lll}…

In this paper, we obtain the reversed Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality with vertical weights on the upper half space and discuss the extremal functions. We show that the sharp constants in this inequality are attained by introducing a…

Isoperimetric problems consist in minimizing or maximizing a cost functional subject to an integral constraint. In this work, we present two fractional isoperimetric problems where the Lagrangian depends on a combined Caputo derivative of…

In this work we study the following nonlocal problem \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} M(\|u\|^2_X)(-\Delta)^s u&= \lambda {f(x)}|u|^{\gamma-2}u+{g(x)}|u|^{p-2}u &&\mbox{in}\ \ \Omega, u&=0 &&\mbox{on}\ \ \mathbb R^N\setminus…

This paper concerns a spectral estimation problem in which we want to find a spectral density function that is consistent with estimated second-order statistics. It is an inverse problem admitting multiple solutions, and selection of a…

In this paper we consider a robust identification problem for a linear dynamical control system with limited-frequency intervals. In mathematical terms, this is the problem of recovering functions in Hardy spaces. Our purpose is to bound…

An upper bound of the variation of argument of a holomorphic function along a curve on a Riemann surface is given. This bound is expressed through the Bernstein index of the function multiplied by a geometric constant. The Bernstein index…

An effective medium model is developed for disordered metamaterials containing a spatially random distribution of dielectric spheres. Similar to effective medium models for ordered metamaterials, this model predicts resonances in the…

We prove some sharp extremal distance results for functions in weighted Bergman spaces on the upper halfplane.We also prove such results in the context of bounded strictly pseudoconvex domains with smooth boundary

The main objective of the present work is to study the negative spectrum of (differential) Laplace operators on metric graphs as well as their resolvents and associated heat semigroups. We prove an upper bound on the number of negative…

We study the shape of solutions to some variational problems in Sobolev spaces with weights that are powers of |x|. In particular, we detect situations when the extremal functions lack symmetry properties such as radial symmetry and…

We consider the problem of radiative transfer in stellar atmospheres where the index of refraction departs from unity and is a function of density and temperature. We present modified Feautrier and Lambda-iteration methods to solve the…

This thesis pertains to the study of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations on "thin" structures. The first main objective is to establish the strong and weak low-dimensional counterparts of the parabolic Neumann problem. The…

We develop foundational tools for classifying the extreme valid functions for the k-dimensional infinite group problem. In particular, (1) we present the general regular solution to Cauchy's additive functional equation on bounded convex…

In this paper we prove the existence of at least one positive solution for the nonlocal semipositone problem \[ \displaystyle \left\{\begin{array}{rcll} (-\Delta)_p^s(u) &=& \lambda f(u) \qquad & \text{in} \ \ \Omega \\u &=& 0 & \text{in} \…

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the following fractional problem involving the Hardy potential and concave-convex nonlinearities: $$({-}{ \Delta})^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}u- \gamma \frac{u}{|x|^{\alpha}}=…
