Symmetry of the Ginzburg-Landau minimizer in a disc
The Li-Yau semiclassical lower bound for the sum of the first eigenvalues of the Dirichlet–Laplacian is extended to Dirichlet– Laplacians with constant magnetic fields. Our method involves a new diamagnetic inequality for constant magnetic fields.
Following Eden and Foias we obtain a matrix version of a generalised Sobolev inequality in one dimension. This allows us to improve on the known estimates of best constants in Lieb–Thirring inequalities for the sum of the negative eigenvalues for multidimensional Schrödinger operators.
Kinetic theory and approach to equilibrium is usually studied in the realm of the Boltzmann equation. With a few notable exceptions not much is known about the solutions of this equation and about its derivation from fundamental principles. In 1956 Mark Kac introduced a probabilistic model of interacting particles. The velocity distribution is governed by a Markov semi group and the evolution of its single particle marginals is governed (in the infinite particle limit) by a caricature of the spatially...
