The Quantum Lefschetz Hyperplane Principle Can Fail for Positive Orbifold Hypersurfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We show that the Quantum Lefschetz Hyperplane Principle can fail for certain orbifold hypersurfaces and complete intersections.

Reflection positivity in higher derivative scalar theories [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics and Physics, 2017
Reflection positivity constitutes an integral prerequisite in the Osterwalder-Schrader reconstruction theorem which relates quantum field theories defined on Euclidean space to their Lorentzian signature counterparts. In this work we rigorously prove the

A Scalar Version of the Caflisch‐Luke Paradox [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2019
Consider an infinite cloud of hard spheres sedimenting in a Stokes flow in the whole space ℝd. Despite many contributions in fluid mechanics and applied mathematics, there is so far no rigorous definition of the associated effective sedimentation ...

On a boundary value problem for a Boussinesq-type equation in a triangle

open access: yesВестник КазНУ. Серия математика, механика, информатика, 2022
Earlier, we considered an initial-boundary value problem for a one-dimensional Boussinesq-type equation in a domain that is a trapezoid, in which the theorems on its unique weak solvability in Sobolev classes were established by the methods of the theory

Existence of conformal metrics with constant scalar curvature and constant boundary mean curvature on compact manifolds [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Contemporary Mathematics, 2016
We study the problem of deforming a Riemannian metric to a conformal one with nonzero constant scalar curvature and nonzero constant boundary mean curvature on a compact manifold of dimension [Formula: see text].

Calculus-enhanced energy-first curriculum for introductory physics improves student performance locally and in downstream courses

open access: yesPhysical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
Here we demonstrate the benefits of a new curriculum for introductory calculus-based physics that motivates classical mechanics using a modified version of Hamiltonian mechanics.

C. S. Peirce and the Square Root of Minus One: Quaternions and a Complex Approach to Classes of Signs and Categorical Degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The beginning for C. S. Peirce was the reduction of the traditional categories in a list composed of a fundamental triad: quality, respect and representation.

Topological and Non-Topological Solitons in Scalar Field Theories

open access: yes, 2018
Solitons emerge in various nonlinear systems – from nonlinear optics and condensed matter to nuclear physics, cosmology, and supersymmetric theories – as stable, localized configurations behaving in many ways like particles.

Comparisons of Science Motivational Beliefs of Adolescents in Taiwan, Australia, and the United States: Assessing the Measurement Invariance Across Countries and Genders

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
This study utilized international, large-scale assessment data to compare science motivational beliefs of adolescents within and between countries and genders. The study focused on the beliefs about science of eighth graders, including their self-concept

User-Friendly Tail Bounds for Sums of Random Matrices [PDF]

open access: yesFoundations of Computational Mathematics, 2010
This paper presents new probability inequalities for sums of independent, random, self-adjoint matrices. These results place simple and easily verifiable hypotheses on the summands, and they deliver strong conclusions about the large-deviation behavior ...
