Relaxation of periodic and nonstandard growth integrals by means of two-scale convergence
2019
An integral representation result is obtained for the variational limit of the family functionals $\int_{\Omega}f\left(\frac{x}{\varepsilon}, Du\right)dx$, as $\varepsilon \to 0$, when the integrand $f = f (x,v)$ is a Carath\'eodory function, periodic in $x$, convex in $v$ and with nonstandard growth.
Parabolic equations with natural growth approximated by nonlocal equations
2017
In this paper we study several aspects related with solutions of nonlocal problems whose prototype is $$ u_t =\displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^N} J(x-y) \big( u(y,t) -u(x,t) \big) \mathcal G\big( u(y,t) -u(x,t) \big) dy \qquad \mbox{ in } \, \Omega \times (0,T)\,, $$ being $ u (x,t)=0 \mbox{ in } (\mathbb{R}^N\setminus \Omega )\times (0,T)\,$ and $ u(x,0)=u_0 (x) \mbox{ in } \Omega$. We take, as the most important instance, $\mathcal G (s) \sim 1+ \frac{\mu}{2} \frac{s}{1+\mu^2 s^2 }$ with $\mu\in \mathbb{R}$ as well as $u_0 \in L^1 (\Omega)$, $J$ is a smooth symmetric function with compact support and $\Omega$ is either a bounded smooth subset of $\mathbb{R}^N$, with nonlocal Dirichlet bound…
Local conical dimensions for measures
2012
AbstractWe study the decay of μ(B(x,r)∩C)/μ(B(x,r)) asr↓ 0 for different kinds of measures μ on ℝnand various conesCaroundx. As an application, we provide sufficient conditions that imply that the local dimensions can be calculated via cones almost everywhere.
A note on the computation of geometrically defined relative velocities
2011
We discuss some aspects about the computation of kinematic, spectroscopic, Fermi and astrometric relative velocities that are geometrically defined in general relativity. Mainly, we state that kinematic and spectroscopic relative velocities only depend on the 4-velocities of the observer and the test particle, unlike Fermi and astrometric relative velocities, that also depend on the acceleration of the observer and the corresponding relative position of the test particle, but only at the event of observation and not around it, as it would be deduced, in principle, from the definition of these velocities. Finally, we propose an open problem in general relativity that consists on finding intr…
The c-map on groups
2019
We study the projective special Kaehler condition on groups, providing an intrinsic definition of homogeneous projective special Kaehler that includes the previously known examples. We give intrinsic defining equations that may be used without resorting to computations in the special cone, and emphasise certain associated integrability equations. The definition is shown to have the property that the image of such structures under the c-map is necessarily a left-invariant quaternionic Kaehler structure on a Lie group.
The fixed angle scattering problem with a first order perturbation
2021
We study the inverse scattering problem of determining a magnetic field and electric potential from scattering measurements corresponding to finitely many plane waves. The main result shows that the coefficients are uniquely determined by $2n$ measurements up to a natural gauge. We also show that one can recover the full first order term for a related equation having no gauge invariance, and that it is possible to reduce the number of measurements if the coefficients have certain symmetries. This work extends the fixed angle scattering results of Rakesh and M. Salo to Hamiltonians with first order perturbations, and it is based on wave equation methods and Carleman estimates.
Multiple Noncommutative Tori and Hopf Algebras
2001
We derive the Kac-Paljutkin finite-dimensional Hopf algebras as finite fibrations of the quantum double torus and generalize the construction for quantum multiple tori.
No-Forcing and No-Matching Theorems for Classical Probability Applied to Quantum Mechanics
2013
Correlations of spins in a system of entangled particles are inconsistent with Kolmogorov's probability theory (KPT), provided the system is assumed to be non-contextual. In the Alice-Bob EPR paradigm, non-contextuality means that the identity of Alice's spin (i.e., the probability space on which it is defined as a random variable) is determined only by the axis \alphai chosen by Alice, irrespective of Bob's axis \betaj (and vice versa). Here, we study contextual KPT models, with two properties: (1) Alice's and Bob's spins are identified as Aij and Bij, even though their distributions are determined by, respectively, \alphai alone and \betaj alone, in accordance with the no-signaling requir…
Resurgent Deformation Quantisation
2013
We construct a version of the complex Heisenberg algebra based on the idea of endless analytic continuation. In particular, we exhibit an integral formula for the product of resurgent operators with algebraic singularities. This algebra would be large enough to capture quantum effects that escape ordinary formal deformation quantisation.
Proof of a Conjecture on Contextuality in Cyclic Systems with Binary Variables
2015
We present a proof for a conjecture previously formulated by Dzhafarov, Kujala, and Larsson (Foundations of Physics, in press, arXiv:1411.2244). The conjecture specifies a measure for the degree of contextuality and a criterion (necessary and sufficient condition) for contextuality in a broad class of quantum systems. This class includes Leggett-Garg, EPR/Bell, and Klyachko-Can-Binicioglu-Shumovsky type systems as special cases. In a system of this class certain physical properties $q_{1},...,q_{n}$ are measured in pairs $(q_{i},q_{j})$; every property enters in precisely two such pairs; and each measurement outcome is a binary random variable. Denoting the measurement outcomes for a proper…
