We propose a structure-preserving scheme for a hybrid model that couples the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) equation of superconducting vortex dynamics and the nonlinear Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) gap equation. This formulation is consistent with the classical TDGL equation in the near-critical temperature, while extending...
We construct a group associated to a class of Borcherds algebras that admit a direct sum decomposition into a Kac--Moody (or semi-simple) subalgebra and a pair of free Lie subalgebras. Such Borcherds algebras have no mutually orthogonal imaginary simple roots.Our group is a semi-direct product of a Kac--Moody (or semi-simple) group...
We consider a family $\{(u_\varepsilon, v_\varepsilon)\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ of critical points of the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. Assuming a uniform energy bound, the sequence $\{(u_\varepsilon, v_\varepsilon)\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ converges in $L^2(Ω)$ to a limit $(u, 1)$ as $\varepsilon \to 0$, where $u$ is in $SBV^2(Ω)$. It was...
Since the alternating sign matrix conjecture, proposed by Mills, Robbins, and Rumsey in 1982, was proved by Zeilberger and Kuperberg, several refined enumerations have been considered. In particular, Behrend et al. obtained a quadruply refined enumeration by adding certain parameters. In this paper, we revisit the doubly refined...
In this expository article, we summarize what is known about maximum likelihood thresholds of Gaussian models, paying special attention to connections with rigidity theory.
Let W be a Weyl group. We define a class of irreducible representations of W that we call antispecial. They are in bijection with the constructible representations of W. We define an oriented graph structure on the set of antispecial representations or equivalently on the set of constructible representations of W. We describe...
Let $R$ be a finite product of integral domains and $D$ be a union of prime ideals (it is possible that $R$ is just an integral domain). Let $n \geq 1$ be a positive integer. This paper introduces the $n$-total graph of a $(R, D)$. The $n$-total graph of $(R, D)$, denoted by $n-T(R)$, is an undirected simple graph with vertex set $R$,...
Composite functions have been studied for over 40 years and appear in a wide range of optimization problems. Convex analysis of these functions focuses on (i) conditions for convexity of the function based on properties of its components, (ii) formulas for the convex conjugate of the function based on those of its components and (iii)...
We provide a closed formula for the graded Betti numbers in the linear strands of all powers of binomial edge ideals $J_G$ arising from closed graphs $G$ that do not have the complete graph $K_4$ as an induced subgraph. We show that these agree with the corresponding Betti numbers for the powers of the lexicographic initial ideal of...
We describe digraphs with topology which give dual representations of ortholattices. This is done via so-called dual Ploščica spaces of lattices. First, we improve the definition of Ploščica spaces from an earlier paper to give a straight and natural generalisation of the total order disconnectedness of Priestley spaces. Then we...
We consider an inverse shape problem arising in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for nondestructive testing, in which interior defects are modeled through Robin transmission conditions. Unlike classical formulations, we impose Robin boundary conditions on both the exterior measurement surface and the interior interface, and use...
We investigate the long-time behavior of a $d-$dimensional supercritical branching Brownian motion with a compactly supported branching potential. It is known that, for $\mathbf{v}\in \mathbb{R}^d$, all the moments of the normalized number of particles in a bounded domain centered at $\mathbf{v} t$ converge, as $t \rightarrow \infty$,...
Let $H$ be a finite abelian (commutative) group of order $n \geq 2$, and $m >1$ be an integer. We define the $m$-graph of $H$, denoted by $m-G(H)$, as a simple undirected graph with vertex set $H$, and two distinct vertices, $a, b \in H$, are connected by an edge if and only if $a^m = b$ or $b^m = a$. Several results regarding the...
High-order Lie derivatives are essential in nonlinear systems analysis. If done symbolically, their evaluation becomes increasingly expensive as the order increases. We present a compact and efficient numerical approach for computing Lie derivatives of scalar, vector, and covector fields using the MATLAB ADTAYL package. The method...
In this paper, we generalize the method of Gan-Ichino and Atobe in [GI16][A18] to the field of real numbers and prove the basic tempered case of the local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture for Fourier-Jacobi models of symplectic-metaplectic groups, based on the tempered case of the conjecture for Bessel models proved in [CL22] by Chen-Luo.
We study variants of classical Laver forcing defined from co-ideals and analyze their combinatorial properties in terms of the Katětov order. In particular, we give a Katětov-theoretic characterization of when Laver forcing associated with a co-ideal adds Cohen reals, and we show that such forcings never add random reals. Improving a...
Let $\mathcal{E}=\text{Rep}(G)$ be a Tannakian fusion category. For a braided fusion category $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathcal{E}$ we give sufficient and necessary conditions that characterize the Witt relation $[\mathcal{C}]=[\mathcal{E}]$. Then we show the Witt group $\mathcal{W}(\mathcal{E})$ is naturally a direct sum of Witt group...
We investigate the construction of circulant matrices derived from primitive roots over finite fields. Our approach reduces exponential sums to Jacobi sums, thereby establishing explicit connections between character theory and matrix structures. The results provide new insights into the interaction between additive and multiplicative...
Let a function $F: [0,1]^2\rightarrow [0,1]$ be given by $F(x,y)= f^{(-1)}(T(f(x), f(y)))$ where $f :[0,1]\rightarrow [0,1]$ is a monotone function, $f^{(-1)}$ is the pseudo-inverse of $f$ and $T$ is a triangular norm. This article characterizes the monotone function $f$ satisfying that the function $F$ is a conditionally cancellative...
This paper studies the compressed shift operator $S_z$ on the Hardy space over the bidisk via the geometric approach. We calculate the spectrum and essential spectrum of $S_z$ on the Beurling type quotient modules induced by rational inner functions, and give a complete characterization for $S_z^*$ to be a Cowen-Douglas operator. Then...
Chip-firing on a directed graph is a game in which chips, a discrete commodity, are placed on the vertices of the graph and are transferred between vertices. In this paper, we study a chip-firing game on the Hasse diagram of the lattice of nonnegative integer points on the plane, where we start with $2^n$ chips at the origin. When we...
Posterior tempering reduces the influence of the likelihood in the calculation of the posterior by raising the likelihood to a fractional power $α$. The resulting power posterior - also known as an $α$-posterior or fractional posterior - has been shown to exhibit appealing properties, including robustness to model misspecification and...
We begin development of a method for studying dynamical systems using concepts from computational complexity theory. We associate families of decision problems, called telic problems, to dynamical systems of a certain class. These decision problems formalize finite-time reachability questions for the dynamics with respect to natural...
In 1997, Erdős asked whether for arbitrarily large $n$ there exists a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that determines $O(\frac{n}{\sqrt{\log n}})$ distinct distances while satisfying the local constraint that every 4-point subset determines at least 3 distinct pairwise distances. We construct $n$-point sets from an $m\times m$ box...
In this article, we establish a nearly sharp localized weighted inequality related to Gagliardo and Sobolev seminorms, respectively, with the sharp $A_1$-weight constant or with the specific $A_p$-weight constant when $p\in (1,\infty)$. As applications, we further obtain a new characterization of Muckenhoupt weights and, in the...
