In this paper, we consider the first eigenvalue.1(O) of the Grushin operator.G :=.x1 + |x1|2s.x2 with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a bounded domain O of Rd = R d1+ d2. We prove that.1(O) admits a unique minimizer in the class of domains with prescribed ...
Soft Magnetic Composites (SMCs) demonstrate excellent potentials for electromagnetic applications. The isotropy is one critical feature in designing the composite. This work presents a shape optimization algorithm for SMCs subject to isotropy and volume co ...
We study two-point functions of symmetric traceless local operators in the bulk of de Sitter spacetime. We derive the Kallen-Lehmann spectral decomposition for any spin and show that unitarity implies its spectral densities are nonnegative. In addition, we ...
We study two-point functions of local operators and their spectral representation in UV complete quantum field theories in generic dimensions focusing on conserved currents and the stress-tensor. We establish the connection with the central charges of the ...
Data is pervasive in today's world and has actually been for quite some time. With the increasing volume of data to process, there is a need for faster and at least as accurate techniques than what we already have. In particular, the last decade recorded t ...
We study the two-point function of local operators in the presence of a defect in a generic conformal field theory. We define two pairs of cross ratios, which are convenient in the analysis of the OPE in the bulk and defect channel respectively. The new co ...
We study the conformal data of a generic superconformal line defect preserving half of the supercharges in a four-dimensional N = 2 conformal theory. We prove a theory independent relation between the one-point function of the stress tensor in the presence ...
While phi-divergences have been extensively studied in convex analysis, their use in optimization problems often remains challenging. In this regard, one of the main shortcomings of existing methods is that the minimization of phi-divergences is usually pe ...
This work studies the level-set based topology optimization for the optimal layout of winding in electric motor. The functional to optimize is to maximize the torque in the air-gap. The coil domain is initiated by a level set function. The time evolutionar ...
In this paper, we use methods from spectral graph theory to obtain some results on the sum-product problem over finite valuation rings R of order q(r) which generalize recent results given by Hegyvari and Hennecart (2013). More precisely, we prove that, fo ...
