Three-dimensional representation of the pure electric-dipole and the mixed first hyperpolarizabilities: The modified unit sphere representation.

In this work, the theory of the modified unit sphere representation (mUSR) has been proposed as a computational tool suitable for the three-dimensional representation of the pure electric-dipole [ ] as well as of the mixed electric-dipole/magnetic-dipole [ and ] or electric-dipole/electric-quadrupole [ and ] first hyperpolarizabilities. These five quantities are Cartesian tensors and they are responsible for the chiral signal in the chiroptical version of the hyper-Rayleigh scattering (HRS) spectroscopy, namely the HRS optical activity (HRS-OA) spectroscopy. For the first time, for each hyperpolarizability, alongside with the three-dimensional representation of the whole (i.e., reducible) Cartesian tensors, the mUSRs are developed for each of the irreducible Cartesian tensors (ICTs) that constitute them. This scheme has been applied to a series of three (chiral) hexahelicene molecules containing different degrees of electron-withdrawing (quinone) groups and characterized by the same (positive) handedness. For these molecules, the mUSR shows that, upon substitution, the most remarkable qualitative and semi-quantitative (enhancement of the molecular responses) effects are obtained for the pure electric-dipole and for the mixed electric-dipole/magnetic-dipole hyperpolarizabilities.

Monochromatic Infinite Sets in Minkowski Planes

AbstractWe prove that for any $$\ell _p$$ ℓ p -norm in the plane with $$1< p< \infty $$ 1 < p < ∞ and for every infinite $$\mathcal {M}\subset \mathbb {R}^2$$ M ⊂ R 2 , there exists a two-colouring of the plane such that no isometric copy of $$\mathcal {M}$$ M is monochromatic. On the contrary, we show that for every polygonal norm (that is, the unit ball is a polygon) in the plane, there exists an infinite $$\mathcal {M}\subset \mathbb {R}^2$$ M ⊂ R 2 such that for every two-colouring of the plane there exists a monochromatic isometric copy of $$\mathcal {M}$$ M .

The phase diagram of kernel interpolation in large dimensions

Abstract The generalization ability of kernel interpolation in large dimensions, i.e., 𝑛 ≍ 𝑑𝛾 for some 𝛾 > 0, might be one of the most interesting problems in the recent renaissance of kernel regression, since it may help us understand the ‘benign overfitting phenomenon’ reported in the neural networks literature. Focusing on the inner product kernel on the unit sphere, we fully characterize the exact order of both the variance and bias of large-dimensional kernel interpolation under various source conditions 𝑠 ≥ 0. Consequently, we obtain the (𝑠, 𝛾)-phase diagram of large-dimensional kernel interpolation, i.e., we determine the regions in the (𝑠, 𝛾)-plane where the kernel interpolation is minimax optimal, sub-optimal and inconsistent.

Efficient Convex Optimization Requires Superlinear Memory

We show that any memory-constrained, first-order algorithm which minimizes d -dimensional, 1-Lipschitz convex functions over the unit ball to 1/poly( d ) accuracy using at most d 1.25 - δ bits of memory must make at least \(\tilde{\Omega }(d^{1 + (4/3)\delta })\) first-order queries (for any constant \(\delta \in [0, 1/4]\) ). Consequently, the performance of such memory-constrained algorithms are at least a polynomial factor worse than the optimal Õ( d ) query bound for this problem obtained by cutting plane methods that use Õ(d 2 ) memory. This resolves one of the open problems in the COLT 2019 open problem publication of Woodworth and Srebro.

Non‐cyclicity and polynomials in Dirichlet‐type spaces of the unit ball

AbstractWe give a description of the intersection of the zero set with the unit sphere of a polynomial that is zero‐free in the unit ball of . This description leads to a necessary condition for a polynomial to be cyclic in Dirichlet‐type spaces of the unit ball.

On the definition of Carrollian amplitudes in general dimensions

Carrollian amplitude is the natural object that defines the correlator of the boundary Carrollian field theory. In this work, we will elaborate on its proper definition in general dimensions. We use the vielbein field on the unit sphere to define the fundamental field with non-vanishing helicity in the local Cartesian frame which is the building block of the Carrollian amplitude. In general dimensions, the Carrollian amplitude is related to the momentum space scattering matrix by a modified Fourier transform. The Poincaré transformation law of the Carrollian amplitude in this definition has been discussed. We also find an isomorphism between the local rotation of the vielbein field and the superduality transformation.

Stochastic dissipative Euler’s equations for a free body

Abstract Intrinsic thermal fluctuations within a real solid challenge the rigid body assumption that is central to Euler’s equations for the motion of a free body. Recently, we have introduced a dissipative and stochastic version of Euler’s equations in a thermodynamically consistent way (European Journal of Mechanics – A/Solids 103, 105,184 (2024)). This framework describes the evolution of both orientation and shape of a free body, incorporating internal thermal fluctuations and their concomitant dissipative mechanisms. In the present work, we demonstrate that, in the absence of angular momentum, the theory predicts that the principal axes unit vectors of a body undergo an anisotropic Brownian motion on the unit sphere, with the anisotropy arising from the body’s varying moments of inertia. The resulting equilibrium time correlation function of the principal eigenvectors decays exponentially. This theoretical prediction is confirmed in molecular dynamics simulations of small bodies. The comparison of theory and equilibrium MD simulations allow us to measure the orientational diffusion tensor. We then use this information in the Stochastic Dissipative Euler’s Equations, to describe a non-equilibrium situation of a body spinning around the unstable intermediate axis. The agreement between theory and simulations is excellent, offering a validation of the theoretical framework.

Positive definite functions on a regular domain

Abstract We define positive and strictly positive definite functions on a domain and study these functions on a list of regular domains. The list includes the unit ball, conic surface, hyperbolic surface, solid hyperboloid and the simplex. Each of these domains is embedded in a quadrant or a union of quadrants of the unit sphere by a distance-preserving map, from which characterizations of positive definite and strictly positive definite functions are derived for these regular domains.

Eccentric p-Summing Lipschitz Operators and Integral Inequalities on Metric Spaces and Graphs

The extension of the concept of p-summability for linear operators to the context of Lipschitz operators on metric spaces has been extensively studied in recent years. This research primarily uses the linearization of the metric space M afforded by the associated Arens–Eells space, along with the duality between M and the metric dual space M# defined by the real-valued Lipschitz functions on M. However, alternative approaches to measuring distances between sequences of elements of metric spaces (essentially involved in the definition of p-summability) exist. One approach involves considering specific subsets of the unit ball of M# for computing the distances between sequences, such as the real Lipschitz functions derived from evaluating the difference in the values of the metric from two points to a fixed point. We introduce new notions of summability for Lipschitz operators involving such functions, which are characterized by integral dominations for those operators. To show the applicability of our results, in the last part of this paper, we use the theoretical tools obtained in the first part to analyze metric graphs. In particular, we show new results on the behavior of numerical indices defined on these graphs satisfying certain conditions of summability and symmetry.

Quasiconformal Mappings from Uniform Domains onto John Domains

AbstractWe establish nine equivalent conditions for a bounded domain which is quasiconformally equivalent to a bounded uniform domain with a connected boundary to be a John domain. These conditions connect the John property of the domain with other geometric properties, and with the quasisymmetry of quasiconformal mappings onto it. Our result is a generalization of the main result of Heinonen (Rev. Math. Iber. 5: 97–123, 1989), where a similar question was studied in the special case of the unit ball.

Maximum likelihood estimation of elliptical tail

This study is focused on the efficient estimation of the elliptical tail. Initially, we derive the density function of the spectral measure of an elliptical distribution concerning a dominating measure on the unit sphere, which consequently leads to the density function of the elliptical tail. Subsequently, we propose a maximum likelihood estimation based on the derived density function class. The resulting maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is proven to be consistent and asymptotically normal. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the MLE is asymptotically efficient, with the added advantage that its asymptotic covariance matrix can be feasibly estimated at a low computational cost. A simulation study and real data analysis are conducted to illustrate the efficacy of the proposed method.

SLERP-TVDRK (STVDRK) Methods for Ordinary Differential Equations on Spheres

We mimic the conventional explicit Total Variation Diminishing Runge–Kutta (TVDRK) schemes and propose a class of numerical integrators to solve differential equations on a unit sphere. Our approach utilizes the exponential map inherent to the sphere and employs spherical linear interpolation (SLERP). These modified schemes, named SLERP-TVDRK methods or STVDRK, offer improved accuracy compared to typical projective RK methods. Furthermore, they eliminate the need for any projection and provide a straightforward implementation. While we have successfully constructed STVDRK schemes only up to third-order accuracy, we explain the challenges in deriving STVDRK-r for r≥4\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$r\\ge 4$$\\end{document}. To showcase the effectiveness of our approach, we will demonstrate its application in solving the eikonal equation on the unit sphere and simulating p-harmonic flows using our proposed method.

Nodal solutions for a weighted (N,p)-Kirchhoff-type problem with double exponential growth non-linearity

This paper investigates the existence of sign-changing solutions for a logarithmic weighted Kirchhoff [Formula: see text]-Laplacian problem in the unit ball [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text]. The non-linearity of the equation is assumed to have double exponential growth, which is motivated by Trudinger–Moser-type inequalities. To prove the existence of these solutions, we employ techniques such as constrained minimization within the Nehari set, a quantitative deformation lemma and results from degree theory.

A class of Hausdorff–Berezin operators on the unit ball

Abstract The article introduces and studies Hausdorff–Berezin operators on the unit ball in a complex space. These operators are a natural generalization of the Berezin transform. In addition, the class of such operators contains, for example, the invariant Green potential, and some other operators of complex analysis. Sufficient and necessary conditions for boundedness in the space of p – integrable functions with Haar measure (invariant with respect to involutive automorphisms of the unit ball) are given. We also provide results on compactness of Hausdorff–Berezin operators in Lebesgue spaces on the unit ball. Such operators have previously been introduced and studied in the context of the unit disc in the complex plane. Present work is a natural continuation of these studies.

On the classification of function algebras on subvarieties of noncommutative operator balls

We study algebras of bounded noncommutative (nc) functions on unit balls of operator spaces (nc operator balls) and on their subvarieties. Considering the example of the nc unit polydisk we show that these algebras, while having a natural operator algebra structure, might not be the multiplier algebra of any reasonable nc reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). After examining additional subtleties of the nc RKHS approach, we turn to study the structure and representation theory of these algebras using function theoretic and operator algebraic tools. We show that the underlying nc variety is a complete invariant for the algebra of uniformly continuous nc functions on a homogeneous subvariety, in the sense that two such algebras are completely isometrically isomorphic if and only if the subvarieties are nc biholomorphic. We obtain extension and rigidity results for nc maps between subvarieties of nc operator balls corresponding to injective spaces that imply that a biholomorphism between homogeneous varieties extends to a biholomorphism between the ambient balls, which can be modified to a linear isomorphism. Thus, the algebra of uniformly continuous nc functions on nc operator balls, and even its restriction to certain subvarieties, completely determine the operator space up to completely isometric isomorphism.

Submanifolds with constant scalar curvature in space forms

Let [Formula: see text] be an [Formula: see text]-dimensional oriented compact submanifold with constant normalized scalar curvature [Formula: see text] in the space form [Formula: see text]. Denote by [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] the mean curvature and the Ricci curvature of [Formula: see text] respectively. By applying Cheng-Yau’s self-adjoint operator, we first prove that if [Formula: see text] is a hypersurface in a unit sphere, and [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] is totally umbilical. Furthermore, we investigate the submanifolds in [Formula: see text] with flat normal bundle satisfying [Formula: see text], and obtain a complete classification theorem.
