The capacitance matrix relates potentials and charges on a system of conductors. We review and rigorously generalize its properties, block-diagonal structure and inequalities, deduced from the geometry of system of conductors and analytic…
We find solutions of Laplace's equation with specific boundary conditions (in which such solutions take either the value zero or unity in each surface) using a generic curvilinear system of coordinates. Such purely geometrical solutions…
We prove that the matrix of capacitance in electrostatics is a positive-singular matrix with a non-degenerate null eigenvalue. We explore the physical implications of this fact, and study the physical meaning of the eigenvalue problem for…
The capacitance of an arbitrarily shaped object is calculated with the same second-kind integral equation method used for computing static and dynamic polarizabilities. The capacitance is simply the dielectric permittivity multiplied by the…
The equation describing the capacitance of capacitors is determined. It is shown that by optimizing the material of the conducting electrodes, the capacitance of capacitors reaching the quantum regime can be substantially enhanced or…
The magnetization of bodies in static fields is a textbook topic in electrodynamics, governed by Laplace equations with interface continuity (transmission) conditions. In the infinite-permeability limit, textbooks emphasize the…
We start from microscopic approach to many body physics and show the analytical steps and approximations required to arrive at the concept of quantum capacitance. These approximations are valid only in the semi-classical limit and the…
We show how to use the lattice Green function to calculate capacitances in two dimensions with boundary conditions at infinity. It is shown how to calculate coefficients of capacitance and induction from the lattice Green function. A…
The capacitance of arbitrarily shaped objects is reformulated in terms of the Neumann-Poincar\'{e} operator. Capacitance is simply the dielectric permittivity of the surrounding medium multiplied by the area of the object and divided by the…
Starting from the generalised London equations, which include a gravitomagnetic term, the gravitational and the electromagnetic properties of superconductors are derived. A phenomenological synthesis of those properties is proposed.
Topological electromagnetism owing to nontrivial momentum-space topology of electrons in insulators gives rise to diverse anomalous magnetoelectric responses. While conventional inductors and capacitors are based on classical…
Elliptic homogenization is used to determine coarse-grained properties of materials with features on small scales for heat transfer and elasticity. When microstructural features of a material have rapid, periodic fluctuations, the solution…
We summarize the properties of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in bounded Euclidean domains with Dirichlet, Neumann or Robin boundary condition. We keep the presentation at a level accessible to scientists from…
Assume that A is a bounded selfadjoint operator in a Hilbert space H. Then, the variational principle is obtained for some functional. As an application of this principle, a variational principle for the electrical capacitance of a…
Convenient parameterizations of matrices in terms of vectors transform (certain classes of) matrix equations into covariant (hence rotation-invariant) vector equations. Certain recently introduced such parameterizations are tersely…
We provide monotonicity formulas for solutions to the p-Laplace equation defined in the exterior of a convex domain. A number of analytic and geometric consequences are derived, including the classical Minkowski inequality as well as new…
We extend to manifolds endowed with a general geometric structure, the classical notions of gradient as well as Laplace operator, and provide some of their natural properties.
We consider resonant vortices around nodal points of the wavefunction in electron transport through a mesoscopic device. With a suitable choice of the device geometry, the dominating role is played by single vortices of a preferred…
We consider a partially overdetermined problem for the $p$-Laplace equation in a convex cone $\mathcal{C}$ intersected with the exterior of a smooth bounded domain $\overline{\Omega}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$($n\geq2$). First, we establish the…
We provide a general framework to study invariant properties of various gradient-like and Laplace-like differential operators naturally associated to geometric structures on $\mathbb{R}^n$, which encompass Euclidean, Minkowski,…
