In this paper we prove a two-term asymptotic formula for the spectral counting function for a $2$D magnetic Schrödinger operator on a domain (with Dirichlet boundary conditions) in a semiclassical limit and with strong magnetic field. By scaling, this is equivalent to a thermodynamic limit of a $2$D Fermi gas submitted to a constant external magnetic field. The original motivation comes from a paper by H. Kunz in which he studied, among other things, the boundary correction for...

Let A = -Δ + V be a Schrödinger operator on ${ℝ}^d$, d ≥ 3, where V is a nonnegative potential satisfying the reverse Hölder inequality with an exponent q > d/2. We say that f is an element of $H_A^p$ if the maximal function $su{p}_{t>0}\left|T_{t}f\left(x\right)\right|$ belongs to $L^p\left({ℝ}^d\right)$, where ${T_t}_{t>0}$ is the semigroup generated by -A. It is proved that for d/(d+1) < p ≤ 1 the space $H_A^p$ admits a special atomic decomposition.

Let $D_j$ be a bounded hyperconvex domain in ${ℂ}^{n_j}$ and set $D=D₁\times \cdots \times D_s$, j=1,...,s, s≥ 3. Also let ₙ be the symmetrized polydisc in ℂⁿ, n ≥ 3. We characterize those real-valued continuous functions defined on the boundary of D or ₙ which can be extended to the inside to a pluriharmonic function. As an application a complete characterization of the compliant functions is obtained.

We consider the general Schrödinger operator $L=div\left(A\left(x\right){\nabla }_x\right)-\mu$ on a half-space in ℝⁿ, n ≥ 3. We prove that the L-Green function G exists and is comparable to the Laplace-Green function $G_{\Delta }$ provided that μ is in some class of signed Radon measures. The result extends the one proved on the half-plane in [9] and covers the case of Schrödinger operators with potentials in the Kato class at infinity $K{ₙ}^{\infty }$ considered by Zhao and Pinchover. As an application we study the cone ${}_L\left(ℝⁿ₊\right)$ of all positive L-solutions continuously...

We present a novel approach for bounding the resolvent of $$H=-\Delta +i(A·\nabla +\nabla ·A)+V=:-\Delta +L1$$ for large energies. It is shown here that there exist a large integer $m$ and a large number ${\lambda }_0$ so that relative to the usual weighted $L^2$-norm, $$\parallel {\left(L{(-\Delta +(\lambda +i0))}^{-1}\right)}^m\parallel <\frac{1}{2}2$$ for all $\lambda >{\lambda }_0$. This requires suitable decay and smoothness conditions on $A,V$. The estimate (2) is trivial when $A=0$, but difficult for large $A$ since the gradient term exactly cancels the natural decay of the free resolvent. To obtain (2), we introduce a conical decomposition of the resolvent and...

We prove trace inequalities of type $\left|\right|u^{\text{'}}{\left|\right|}_{L^2}^2+{\sum }_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}{k}_j|u\left(a_j\right){|}^2{\ge \lambda \left|\right|u\left|\right|}_{L^2}^2$ where $u\in H^1\left(ℝ\right)$, under suitable hypotheses on the sequences ${a_j}_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}$ and ${k_j}_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}$, with the first sequence increasing and the second bounded.

In this work, we study the existence of nonnegative and nontrivial solutions for the quasilinear Schrödinger equation $$-{\Delta }_{N}u+b{\left|u\right|}^{N-2}u-{\Delta }_N\left(u^2\right)u=h\left(u\right),x\in {ℝ}^N,$$ where ${\Delta }_N$ is the $N$-Laplacian operator, $h\left(u\right)$ is continuous and behaves as $exp\left(\alpha \right|u{|}^{N/(N-1)})$ when $\left|u\right|\to \infty$. Using the Nehari manifold method and the Schwarz symmetrization with some special techniques, the existence of a nonnegative and nontrivial solution $u\left(x\right)\in W^{1,N}\left({ℝ}^N\right)$ with $u\left(x\right)\to 0$ as $\left|x\right|\to \infty$ is established.

We consider the Schrödinger operator $-\Delta +V\left(x\right)$ on $H_0^1\left(\Omega \right)$, where $\Omega$ is a given domain of ${ℝ}^d$. Our goal is to study some optimization problems where an optimal potential $V\ge 0$ has to be determined in some suitable admissible classes and for some suitable optimization criteria, like the energy or the Dirichlet eigenvalues.

Let ${K_t}_{t>0}$ be the semigroup of linear operators generated by a Schrödinger operator -L = Δ - V with V ≥ 0. We say that f belongs to $H{¹}_L$ if $\left|\right|su{p}_{t>0}|K_t{f\left(x\right)\left|\right||}_{L¹\left(dx\right)}<\infty$. We state conditions on V and $K_t$ which allow us to give an atomic characterization of the space $H{¹}_L$.

We show the existence of weak solutions in the extended sense of the Cauchy problem for the cubic fourth order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the initial data $u_0\in X$, where $X\in \{M_{2,q}^s\left(ℝ\right),H^{\sigma }\left(𝕋\right),H^{s_1}\left(ℝ\right)+H^{s_2}\left(𝕋\right)\}$ and $q\in [1,2]$, $s\ge 0$, or $\sigma \ge 0$, or $s_2\ge s_1\ge 0$. Moreover, if $M_{2,q}^s\left(ℝ\right)\hookrightarrow L^3\left(ℝ\right)$, or if $\sigma \ge \frac{1}{6}$, or if $s_1\ge \frac{1}{6}$ and $s_2>\frac{1}{2}$ we show that the Cauchy problem is unconditionally wellposed in $X$. Similar results hold true for all higher order nonlinear Schrödinger equations and mixed order NLS due to a factorization property of the corresponding phase factors. For the proof we employ...

We consider functionals of a potential energy ${\mathbb{P}}_{\psi }\left(u\right)$ corresponding to $\mathrm{𝑎𝑛}\mathrm{𝑎𝑥𝑖𝑠𝑦𝑚𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑐}\mathrm{𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑦}-\mathrm{𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒}\mathrm{𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑏𝑙𝑒𝑚}$. We are dealing with $𝑎\mathrm{𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛}\mathrm{𝑜𝑓}𝑎\mathrm{𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛}\mathrm{𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟}\mathrm{𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒}$ with $\mathrm{𝑁𝑒𝑢𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑛}\mathrm{𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑦}\mathrm{𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠}$. Various types of the subsoil of the plate are described by various types of the $\mathrm{𝑛𝑜𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒}$ nonlinear term $\psi \left(u\right)$. The aim of the paper is to find a suitable computational algorithm.

We address the problem of the existence of finite energy solitary waves for nonlinear Klein-Gordon or Schrödinger type equations $\Delta u-u+f\left(u\right)=0$ in ${ℝ}^N$, $u\in H^1\left({ℝ}^N\right)$, where $N\ge 2$. Under natural conditions on the nonlinearity $f$, we prove the existence of $\mathrm{𝑖𝑛𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑦𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑦𝑛𝑜𝑛𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠}$ in any dimension $N\ge 2$. Our result complements earlier works of Bartsch and Willem $(N=4\mathrm{𝚘𝚛}N\ge 6)$ and Lorca-Ubilla $(N=5)$ where solutions invariant under the action of $O\left(2\right)\times O(N-2)$ are constructed. In contrast, the solutions we construct are invariant under the action of $D_k\times O(N-2)$ where $D_k\subset O\left(2\right)$ denotes the dihedral...

We consider the 3D quantum BBGKY hierarchy which corresponds to the $N$-particle Schrödinger equation. We assume the pair interaction is $N^{3\beta –1}V\left(B^{\beta }\right)$. For the interaction parameter $\beta \in (0,2/3)$, we prove that, provided an energy bound holds for solutions to the BBKGY hierarchy, the $N\to \infty$ limit points satisfy the space-time bound conjectured by S. Klainerman and M. Machedon [45] in 2008. The energy bound was proven to hold for $\beta \in (0,3/5)$ in [28]. This allows, in the case $\beta \in (0,3/5)$, for the application of the Klainerman–Machedon...

We prove an estimate for the difference of two solutions of the Schrödinger map equation for maps from $T^1$ to $S^2.$ This estimate yields some continuity properties of the flow map for the topology of $L^2(T^1,S^2)$, provided one takes its quotient by the continuous group action of $T^1$ given by translations. We also prove that without taking this quotient, for any $t\&gt;0$ the flow map at time $t$ is discontinuous as a map from ${𝒞}^{\infty }(T^1,S^2)$, equipped with the weak topology of $H^{1/2},$ to the space of distributions ${\left({𝒞}^{\infty }(T^1,{ℝ}^3)\right)}^{*}.$ The argument relies...

Let $\left[t\right]$ be the integral part of a real number $t$, and let $f$ be the arithmetic function satisfying some simple condition. We establish a new asymptotical formula for the sum $S_f\left(x\right)={\sum }_{n\le x}f\left([x/n]\right)$, which improves the recent result of J. Stucky (2022).

We deal with a class on nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) with potentials $V\left(x\right)\sim {\left|x\right|}^{-\alpha }$, $0<\alpha <2$, and $K\left(x\right)\sim {\left|x\right|}^{-\beta }$, $\beta >0$. Working in weighted Sobolev spaces, the existence of ground states $v_{\epsilon }$ belonging to $W^{1,2}\left({ℝ}^N\right)$ is proved under the assumption that $\sigma <p<(N+2)/\left(N-2\right)$ for some $\sigma ={\sigma }_{N,\alpha ,\beta }$. Furthermore, it is shown that $v_{\epsilon }$ are spikes concentrating at a minimum point of $𝒜=V^{\theta }{K}^{-2/\left(p-1\right)}$, where $\theta =(p+1)/\left(p-1\right)-1/2$.

Let ℳ be a type II₁ von Neumann algebra, τ a trace in ℳ, and L²(ℳ,τ) the GNS Hilbert space of τ. If L²(ℳ,τ)₊ is the completion of the set ${ℳ}_{sa}$ of selfadjoint elements, then each element ξ ∈ L²(ℳ,τ)₊ gives rise to a selfadjoint unbounded operator $L_{\xi }$ on L²(ℳ,τ). In this note we show that the exponential exp: L²(ℳ,τ)₊ → L²(ℳ,τ), $exp\left(\xi \right)=e^{i{L}_{\xi }}$, is continuous but not differentiable. The same holds for the Cayley transform $C\left(\xi \right)=(L_{\xi }-i){(L_{\xi }+i)}^{-1}$. We also show that the unitary group $U_{ℳ}\subset L²(ℳ,\tau )$ with the strong operator topology is not an...
