We establish the nonlinear stability of solitary waves (solitons) and periodic traveling wave solutions (cnoidal waves) for a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation which includes a fifth order dispersive term. The traveling wave solutions which yield solitons for zero boundary conditions and wave-trains of cnoidal waves for nonzero boundary conditions are analyzed using stability theorems, which rely on the positivity properties of the Fourier transforms. We show that all families of solutions considered here are (orbitally) stable.

Traveling wave solutions to Kawahara equation (KE), transmission line (TL), and Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation are found by using an elliptic function method which is more general than the tanh-method. The method works by assuming that a polynomial ansatz satisfies a Weierstrass equation, and has two advantages: first, it reduces the number of terms in the ansatz by an order of two, and second, it uses Weierstrass functions which satisfy an elliptic equation for the dependent variable instead of the hyperbolic tangent functions which only satisfy the Riccati equation with constant coefficients. When the polynomial ansatz in the traveling wave variable is of first order, the equation reduces to the KdV equation with only a cubic dispersion term, while for the KE which includes a fifth order dispersion term the polynomial ansatz must necessary be of quadratic type. By solving the elliptic equation with coefficients that depend on the boundary conditions, velocity of the traveling waves, nonlinear strength, and dispersion coefficients, in the case of KdV equation we find the well-known solitary waves (solitons) for zero boundary conditions, as well as wave-trains of cnoidal waves for nonzero boundary conditions. Both solutions are either compressive (bright) or rarefactive (dark), and either propagate to the left or right with arbitrary velocity.

In this paper we review the physical relevance of a Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with higher-order dispersion terms which is used in the applied sciences and engineering. We also present exact traveling wave solutions to this generalized KdV equation using an elliptic function method which can be readily applied to any scalar evolution or wave equation with polynomial terms involving only odd derivatives. We show that the generalized KdV equation still supports hump-shaped solitary waves as well as cnoidal wave solutions provided that the coefficients satisfy specific algebraic constraints. Analytical solutions in closed form serve as benchmarks for numerical solvers or comparison with experimental data. They often correspond to homoclinic orbits in the phase space and serve as separatrices of stable and unstable regions. Some of the solutions presented in this paper correct, complement, and illustrate results previously reported in the literature, while others are novel.

This paper derives the second-order positive Burgers' equation from the standard Burgers' hierarchy to explore its complete integrability and exact analytical solutions. We construct this higher-order nonlinear evolution equation by systematically applying the recursion operator to the classical Burgers' equation. Expanding on this structural framework, we then derive the explicit third-order equation and use Complete Bell Polynomials to generalize the n-th order hierarchy. Through the Cole-Hopf transformation, the second-order nonlinear equation rigorously maps to the linear third-order dispersion equation. We establish complete integrability by explicitly formulating the scalar Lax pair (zero-curvature representation), which allows us to directly derive the associated differential and algebraic Darboux transformations. To systematically classify explicit stationary, time-dependent traveling wave, and self-similar profiles, we apply several techniques to the linear domain: separation of variables, the Hirota perturbation method, traveling wave reduction via the Complete Discrimination System for Polynomial Method (CDSPM), and Lie similarity reduction. Crucially, our analysis demonstrates the exact finite truncation of the Hirota perturbation series. We conclude by outlining how this equation impacts the theoretical understanding of fluid dynamics, nonlinear transport phenomena, and higher-order wave propagation.

We study a one dimensional nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with a potential, a localized quadratic nonlinearity, and a non-localized quartic nonlinearity. We assume that the linearized operator has a single discrete eigenvalue below the continuous spectrum, corresponding to an ''internal mode''. This eigenvalue generates localized, time-periodic solutions for the linear equation. Assuming the natural Fermi Golden Rule, we give a global description of the dynamics of the amplitude of the internal mode through the radiation damping mechanism, and prove scattering for the radiation. Our approach is based on the distorted Fourier transform and a collection of refined dispersive decay and smoothing estimates. The corresponding cubic problem is closely related to the question of global-in-space dispersive asymptotics for perturbations of kink solutions in the classical ϕ^4 model, which remains a challenging open question. From the perspective of nonlinear estimates, a quartic (non-localized) interaction is essentially sharp for our analysis, and closing the estimates with such a low degree nonlinear term requires a careful and delicate treatment. As a direct application of our analysis, we prove a result on the asymptotic stability of kinks for classes of scalar field models that can be seen as perturbations of the ϕ^4 model.

The Redfield equation with time-dependent coefficients (or TCL2 equation) gives one of the simplest perturbative descriptions of open quantum system dynamics derived from a microscopic theory. Its status as an approximation is nevertheless subtle: while perturbation theory fixes the reduced dynamics order-by-order in the system-environment coupling, solving the Redfield equation yields a particular resummation that need not preserve complete positivity. Here we compare Redfield evolution with an exponentiated (Magnus) resummation of the same second-order perturbative map, which is completely positive and trace preserving (CPTP) for a broad class of physical conditions. We also construct a simple CPTP resolvent resummation, illustrating the non-uniqueness of resummations of the same perturbative map. The Redfield and Magnus prescriptions agree to second order but differ through time-ordering corrections at higher orders. We exhibit a weak-coupling criterion which guarantees that Redfield evolution, even when non-Markovian, remains close to a CPTP map. We illustrate the criterion in two examples, focusing on finite-dimensional (qubit) systems. Our results clarify when, and why, Redfield evolution can remain reliable even when it is highly non-Lindbladian.

We provide conditions for existence of hyperbolic, unbounded periodic and elliptic solutions in terms of Weierstrass wp functions of both third and fifth-order KdV--BBM (Korteweg-de Vries--Benjamin, Bona \& Mahony) regularized long wave equation. An analysis for the initial value problem is developed together with a local and global well-posedness theory for the third-order KdV--BBM equation. Traveling wave reduction is used together with zero boundary conditions to yield solitons and periodic unbounded solutions, while for nonzero boundary conditions we find solutions in terms of Weierstrass elliptic wp functions. For the fifth-order KdV--BBM equation we show that a parameter γ=1{12}, for which the equation has a Hamiltonian, represents a restriction for which there are constraint curves that never intersect a region of unbounded solitary waves, which in turn shows that only dark or bright solitons and no unbounded solutions exist. Motivated by the lack of a Hamiltonian structure for γneq1{12} we develop H^k bounds, and we show for the non Hamiltonian system that dark and bright solitons coexist together with unbounded periodic solutions. For nonzero boundary conditions, due to the complexity of the nonlinear algebraic system of coefficients of the elliptic equation we construct Weierstrass solutions for a particular set of parameters only.

Chirality plays an important role in many optical phenomena, and it is crucial to have efficient and accurate numerical algorithms to simulate solutions in this setting. In this paper, we discuss a High-Order Spectral method coupled to geometric regular perturbation theory, which results in just such a method. We view the chirality of the laterally periodic, constant permittivity/permeability structure as deviating from a background value, and demonstrate analyticity of the field scattered by a plane electromagnetic wave with respect to this deformation. This analyticity is not only with respect to chirality deformations of arbitrarily large real size, but also joint in the spatial variables. We also show how the High--Order Perturbation of Envelopes (HOPE) recursions, which we used to establish these results, can be implemented as a rapid, robust, and reliable numerical algorithm.

We examine whether the perturbative renormalization group (RG) regime of stochastic turbulence can be continued from small varepsilon to the physical value varepsilon_{phys}=2, corresponding to large-scale forcing. Exploiting the simplifications of the large-d limit, we calculate the correction exponent ω to five-loop order and find a simple structure suggesting a closed analytic form. This form implies that the fixed point stable near varepsilon=0 ceases to be simultaneously real and infrared stable before reaching varepsilon_{phys}=2, pointing to a possible change of infrared regime rather than a controlled perturbative RG extrapolation.

Studies of density matrices for random quantum states lead naturally to the fixed trace Laguerre ensemble in random matrix theory. Previous studies have uncovered explicit rational function formulas for moments of purity statistic (trace of the squared density matrix), and also a third order linear differential equation satisfied by the eigenvalue density. We further probe the origin of these results from the viewpoint of integrability, which is taken here to mean wider classes of recursions and differential equations, and give extensions. Prominent in our study are first order linear matrix differential equations. One application given is to the derivation of the third order scalar equation for the density. Another is to obtain the explicit rational function formula for the variance of the purity statistic in the β generalised fixed trace Laguerre ensemble. In the original case (β= 2), the purity cumulants are expressed in terms of the large argument expansion of a particular σ-Painlevé IV transcendent. In a different but related direction, the exact computation of the two-point correlation for the fixed determinant circular unitary ensemble SU(N) is given the Appendix.

We study the bi-parameter local linearization of the one-dimensional nonlinear stochastic wave equation driven by a Gaussian noise, which is white in time and has a spatially homogeneous covariance structure of Riesz-kernel type. We establish that the second-order increments of the solution can be approximated by those of the corresponding linearized wave equation, modulated by the diffusion coefficient. These findings extend the previous results of Huang et al. HOO2024, which addressed the case of space-time white noise. As applications, we analyze the quadratic variation of the solution and construct a consistent estimator for the diffusion parameter.

The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation serves as a foundational model in nonlinear wave physics, describing the balance between dispersive spreading and nonlinear steepening that gives rise to solitons. This article introduces sangkuriang, an open-source Python library for solving this equation using Fourier pseudo-spectral spatial discretization coupled with adaptive high-order time integration. The implementation leverages just-in-time (JIT) compilation for computational efficiency while maintaining accessibility for instructional purposes. Validation encompasses progressively complex scenarios including isolated soliton propagation, symmetric two-wave configurations, overtaking collisions between waves of differing amplitudes, and three-body interactions. Conservation of the classical invariants is monitored throughout, with deviations remaining small across all test cases. Measured soliton velocities conform closely to theoretical predictions based on the amplitude-velocity relationship characteristic of integrable systems. Complementary diagnostics drawn from information theory and recurrence analysis confirm that computed solutions preserve the regular phase-space structure expected for completely integrable dynamics. The solver outputs data in standard scientific formats compatible with common analysis tools and generates visualizations of spatiotemporal wave evolution. By combining numerical accuracy with practical accessibility on modest computational resources, sangkuriang offers a platform suitable for both classroom demonstrations of nonlinear wave phenomena and exploratory research into soliton dynamics.

In this paper, we propose an alternating numerical scheme for constructing quasi-periodic solutions to a class of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) with bounded perturbations, including the one-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations and nonlinear wave (NLW) equations under periodic and Dirichlet boundary conditions. A key observation concerning the resonant Q-equations allows us to establish directly a local diffeomorphism between the amplitudes and the drifted frequencies. This renders the proof considerably cleaner, since it avoids the Birkhoff normal form and the associated coordinate transformations required in classical KAM theory for PDEs.Unlike in the finite-dimensional setting, the lattice boxes must also include the spatial index, so that the multiscale induction has to be carried out in one additional dimension. This introduces two difficulties. First, the measure estimate for the excluded set of ``bad'' frequencies must account for the spatial index. For both the NLS and NLW equations, the linear frequencies and their differences are integers or close to integers; this allows the spatial dependence to be controlled through the modulus of the temporal index, so that the excluded measure remains under control. Second, a singular set may contain sites with the same temporal index but widely separated spatial indices, which obstructs the ``inversion implies localization'' process. For the one-dimensional NLS and NLW equations, however, such sites occur only in pairs with opposite spatial indices. They can therefore be separated by small boxes, after which the global inverse is obtained from the local inverses via the resolvent identity. Numerical experiments illustrate the scheme for nonlinear traveling and standing waves, exhibiting both the computed quasi-periodic solutions and the convergence of the iteration.

We investigate soliton formation and interactions in the non-integrable Gardner-Ostrovsky equation (alias the rotation-modified Gardner equation) with anomalous (positive) dispersion. This equation is relevant to the description of wave dynamics in plasmas and other dispersive media. We show that a special class of solitons, characterized by zero total mass and non-monotonic asymptotics, can emerge from pulse-like initial perturbations. Depending on the initial conditions, these solitons may form regular amplitude-ordered trains, irregular nonstationary ensembles of interacting localized structures, or stationary propagating multi-soliton complexes. We further demonstrate that soliton interactions in the Gardner-Ostrovsky equation are inherently inelastic, leading to the emergence of a dominant "soliton-champion" in closed systems. For example, under periodic boundary conditions, only the largest-amplitude soliton ultimately survives, while all smaller solitons are gradually eliminated through successive interactions. Despite their inelastic interactions, Gardner-Ostrovsky solitons exhibit remarkable robustness.

The analysis of the spectral features of a Toeplitz matrix-sequence left{T_{n}(f)right}_{ninmathbb N}, generated by a symbol fin L^1([-π,π]), real-valued almost everywhere (a.e.), has been provided in great detail in the last century, as well as the study of the conditioning, when f is nonnegative a.e. Here we consider a novel type of problem arising in the numerical approximation of distributed-order fractional differential equations (FDEs), where the matrices under consideration take the form \[ T_{n}=c_0T_{n}(f_0)+c_{1} h^h T_{n}(f_{1})+c_{2} h^{2h} T_{n}(f_{2})+\cdots+c_{n-1} h^{(n-1)h}T_{n}(f_{n-1}), \] c_0,c_{1},ldots, c_{n-1} in [c_*,c^*], c^*ge c_*>0, independent of n, h=1{n}, f_jsim g_j, g_j=|θ|^{2-jh}, j=0,ldots,n-1. Since the resulting generating function depends on n, the standard theory cannot be applied and the analysis has to be performed using new ideas. Few selected numerical experiments are presented, also in connection with matrices that come from distributed-order FDE problems, and the adherence with the theoretical analysis is discussed together with open questions and future investigations.

We present an open-source Python implementation of an idealized high-order pseudo-spectral solver for the one-dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE). The solver combines Fourier spectral spatial discretization with an adaptive eighth-order Dormand-Prince time integration scheme to achieve machine-precision conservation of mass and near-perfect preservation of momentum and energy for smooth solutions. The implementation accurately reproduces fundamental NLSE phenomena including soliton collisions with analytically predicted phase shifts, Akhmediev breather dynamics, and the development of modulation instability from noisy initial conditions. Four canonical test cases validate the numerical scheme: single soliton propagation, two-soliton elastic collision, breather evolution, and noise-seeded modulation instability. The solver employs a 2/3 dealiasing rule with exponential filtering to prevent aliasing errors from the cubic nonlinearity. Statistical analysis using Shannon, R\'enyi, and Tsallis entropies quantifies the spatio-temporal complexity of solutions, while phase space representations reveal the underlying coherence structure. The implementation prioritizes code transparency and educational accessibility over computational performance, providing a valuable pedagogical tool for exploring nonlinear wave dynamics. Complete source code, documentation, and example configurations are freely available, enabling reproducible computational experiments across diverse physical contexts where the NLSE governs wave evolution, including nonlinear optics, Bose-Einstein condensates, and ocean surface waves.

In this paper, we use a traveling wave reduction or a so-called spatial approximation to comprehensively investigate periodic and solitary wave solutions of the modified Benjamin, Bona & Mahony equation (BBM) to include both dissipative and dispersive effects of viscous boundary layers. Under certain circumstances that depend on the traveling wave velocity, classes of periodic and solitary wave like solutions are obtained in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions. An ad-hoc theory based on the dissipative term is presented, in which we have found a set of solutions in terms of an implicit function. Using dynamical systems theory we prove that the solutions of BBMv experience a transcritical bifurcation for a certain velocity of the traveling wave. Finally, we present qualitative numerical results.

Deep Learning using the eponymous deep neural networks (DNNs) has become an attractive approach towards various data-based problems of theoretical physics in the past decade. There has been a clear trend to deeper architectures containing increasingly more powerful and involved layers. Contrarily, Taylor coefficients of DNNs still appear mainly in the light of interpretability studies, where they are computed at most to first order. However, especially in theoretical physics numerous problems benefit from accessing higher orders, as well. This gap motivates a general formulation of neural network (NN) Taylor expansions. Restricting our analysis to multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) and introducing quantities we refer to as propagators and vertices, both depending on the MLP's weights and biases, we establish a graph-theoretical approach. Similarly to Feynman rules in quantum field theories, we can systematically assign diagrams containing propagators and vertices to the corresponding partial derivative. Examining this approach for S-wave scattering lengths of shallow potentials, we observe NNs to adapt their derivatives mainly to the leading order of the target function's Taylor expansion. To circumvent this problem, we propose an iterative NN perturbation theory. During each iteration we eliminate the leading order, such that the next-to-leading order can be faithfully learned during the subsequent iteration. After performing two iterations, we find that the first- and second-order Born terms are correctly adapted during the respective iterations. Finally, we combine both results to find a proxy that acts as a machine-learned second-order Born approximation.

The numerical solution of implicit and stiff differential equations by implicit numerical integrators has been largely investigated and there exist many excellent efficient codes available in the scientific community, as Radau5 (based on a Runge-Kutta collocation method at Radau points) and Dassl, based on backward differentiation formulas, among the others. When solving fractional ordinary differential equations (ODEs), the derivative operator is replaced by a non-local one and the fractional ODE is reformulated as a Volterra integral equation, to which these codes cannot be directly applied. This article is a follow-up of the article by the authors (Guglielmi and Hairer, SISC, 2025) for differential equations with distributed delays. The main idea is to approximate the fractional kernel t^{α-1}/ Γ(α) (α>0) by a sum of exponential functions or by a sum of exponential functions multiplied by a monomial, and then to transform the fractional integral (of convolution type) into a set of ordinary differential equations. The augmented system is typically stiff and thus requires the use of an implicit method. It can have a very large dimension and requires a special treatment of the arising linear systems. The present work presents an algorithm for the construction of an approximation of the fractional kernel by a sum of exponential functions, and it shows how the arising linear systems in a stiff time integrator can be solved efficiently. It is explained how the code Radau5 can be used for solving fractional differential equations. Numerical experiments illustrate the accuracy and the efficiency of the proposed method. Driver examples are publicly available from the homepages of the authors.

One way to model the strange metal phase of certain materials is via a holographic description in terms of probe D-branes in a Lifshitz spacetime, characterised by a dynamical exponent z. The background geometry is dual to a strongly-interacting quantum critical theory while the probe D-branes are dual to a finite density of charge carriers that can exhibit the characteristic properties of strange metals. We compute holographically the low-frequency and low-momentum form of the charge density and current retarded Green's functions in these systems for massless charge carriers. The results reveal a quasi-particle excitation when z<2, which in analogy with Landau Fermi liquids we call zero sound. The real part of the dispersion relation depends on momentum k linearly, while the imaginary part goes as k^2/z. When z is greater than or equal to 2 the zero sound is not a well-defined quasi-particle. We also compute the frequency-dependent conductivity in arbitrary spacetime dimensions. Using that as a measure of the charge current spectral function, we find that the zero sound appears only when the spectral function consists of a single delta function at zero frequency.

We introduce a special type of dissipative Ermakov-Pinney equations of the form v_{ζζ}+g(v)v_ζ+h(v)=0, where h(v)=h_0(v)+cv^{-3} and the nonlinear dissipation g(v) is based on the corresponding Chiellini integrable Abel equation. When h_0(v) is a linear function, h_0(v)=λ^2v, general solutions are obtained following the Abel equation route. Based on particular solutions, we also provide general solutions containing a factor with the phase of the Milne type. In addition, the same kinds of general solutions are constructed for the cases of higher-order Reid nonlinearities. The Chiellini dissipative function is actually a dissipation-gain function because it can be negative on some intervals. We also examine the nonlinear case h_0(v)=Ω_0^2(v-v^2) and show that it leads to an integrable hyperelliptic case

Existing model reduction techniques for high-dimensional models of conservative partial differential equations (PDEs) encounter computational bottlenecks when dealing with systems featuring non-polynomial nonlinearities. This work presents a nonlinear model reduction method that employs lifting variable transformations to derive structure-preserving quadratic reduced-order models for conservative PDEs with general nonlinearities. We present an energy-quadratization strategy that defines the auxiliary variable in terms of the nonlinear term in the energy expression to derive an equivalent quadratic lifted system with quadratic system energy. The proposed strategy combined with proper orthogonal decomposition model reduction yields quadratic reduced-order models that conserve the quadratized lifted energy exactly in high dimensions. We demonstrate the proposed model reduction approach on four nonlinear conservative PDEs: the one-dimensional wave equation with exponential nonlinearity, the two-dimensional sine-Gordon equation, the two-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation with parametric dependence, and the two-dimensional Klein-Gordon-Zakharov equations. The numerical results show that the proposed lifting approach is competitive with the state-of-the-art structure-preserving hyper-reduction method in terms of both accuracy and computational efficiency in the online stage while providing significant computational gains in the offline stage.

In this paper, we revisit the joint low-Mach and low-Frode number limit for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with degenerate, density-dependent viscosity. Employing the relative entropy framework based on the concept of κ-entropy, we rigorously justify the convergence of weak solutions toward the generalized anelastic system in a three-dimensional periodic domain for well-prepared initial data. For general ill-prepared initial data, we establish a similar convergence result in the whole space, relying essentially on dispersive estimates for acoustic waves. Compared with the work of Fanelli and Zatorska [Commun. Math. Phys., 400 (2023), pp. 1463-1506], our analysis is conducted for the standard isentropic pressure law, thereby eliminating the need for the cold pressure term that played a crucial role in the previous approach. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first rigorous singular limit result for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with degenerate viscosity that requires no additional regularization of the system.

We develop a perturbative framework for systems coupled quadratically to bosonic environments with quadratic Hamiltonians and linear Lindblad operators. The method applies to both single-mode and multimode environments whose initial states may be non-Gaussian and nonstationary. By combining linear evolution in a doubled operator space with a characteristic-function representation, we express ordered multitime environmental correlation functions in terms of derivatives of the initial characteristic function. These correlation functions enter a recursive construction of the time-convolutionless generator at arbitrary finite order. We illustrate the method with a qubit coupled to a damped mode via a two-photon interaction. Initial Fock and thermal states with identical first and second field moments produce different second-order generators through their fourth moments.

Neural operators provide deep neural networks for learning mappings between function spaces. Among them, the Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) is particularly effective: its spectral convolution relies on low-dimensional Fourier-domain representations and can handle inputs at different resolutions. This design aligns well with settings where the Fourier basis diagonalizes the underlying operator, such as linear, constant-coefficient PDEs on periodic domains, in which Fourier modes evolve independently. However, nonlinear PDEs may benefit from an additional inductive bias, as they exhibit structured interactions between modes, governed by polynomial nonlinearities. To capture this inductive bias, we introduce the Higher-Order Spectral Convolution, a spectral mixer that extends FNO from diagonal modulation to explicit n-linear mode mixing, aligned with the dynamics of nonlinear PDEs. Our experiments on standard benchmarks show that the proposed Higher-Order FNO (HO-FNO) retains the efficiency of FNO-based architectures and consistently improves over other spectral neural operators. HO-FNO also performs on par with or better than state-of-the-art transformers and state-space models on several datasets, with stronger gains in highly nonlinear regimes, such as the Poisson equation with polynomial forcing, where a single HO-FNO layer outperforms FNO models with up to 16 layers. We open-source our code for reproducibility at: https://github.com/AlexColagrande/HO-FNO.

We discuss the numerical solution of initial value problems for varepsilon^2,varphi''+a(x),varphi=0 in the highly oscillatory regime, i.e., with a(x)>0 and 0<varepsilonll 1. We analyze and implement an approximate solution based on the well-known WKB-ansatz. The resulting approximation error is of magnitude O(varepsilon^{N}) where N refers to the truncation order of the underlying asymptotic series. When the optimal truncation order N_{opt} is chosen, the error behaves like O(varepsilon^{-2}exp(-cvarepsilon^{-1})) with some c>0.

For a real quadratic field Q(d), we study the norm-form energy N = S_ζ^2 - d cdot S_L^2, where S_ζ and S_L are Lorentzian-weighted zero sums with w(ρ) = 2/(1/4 + γ^2). We prove three main results. (1) Spacelike spectral data: N < 0 unconditionally for all squarefree d > 1, as a consequence of a low-lying zero dominance theorem proved via explicit zero-counting. (2) Effective density bound: at each verified truncation level M, dens{N > 0} leq 2|f_{S_L^{(M)}}|_infty cdot (W_1(ζ)/d + ε_M), established unconditionally via Jacobi--Anger resonance analysis. (3) Exact asymptotic: under the computationally verified hypothesis that the infinite resonance lattice Λ_infty has finite rank (verified for M leq 20, where rank = 0), the sharp asymptotic dens{N > 0} = C(d)/d + o(1/d) holds. For d = 5, C(5) = 2,f_{S_L}(0)cdotE[|S_ζ|] = 0.1191; the constant depends on d through the zeros of L(s,χ_d), and C(d) = O(1/log d) as d to infty.

In this work, we focus on a fractional differential equation in Riesz form discretized by a polynomial B-spline collocation method. For an arbitrary polynomial degree p, we show that the resulting coefficient matrices possess a Toeplitz-like structure. We investigate their spectral properties via their symbol and we prove that, like for second order differential problems, also in this case the given matrices are ill-conditioned both in the low and high frequencies for large p. More precisely, in the fractional scenario the symbol has a single zero at 0 of order α, with α the fractional derivative order that ranges from 1 to 2, and it presents an exponential decay to zero at π for increasing p that becomes faster as α approaches 1. This translates in a mitigated conditioning in the low frequencies and in a deterioration in the high frequencies when compared to second order problems. Furthermore, the derivation of the symbol reveals another similarity of our problem with a classical diffusion problem. Since the entries of the coefficient matrices are defined as evaluations of fractional derivatives of the B-spline basis at the collocation points, we are able to express the central entries of the coefficient matrix as inner products of two fractional derivatives of cardinal B-splines. Finally, we perform a numerical study of the approximation behavior of polynomial B-spline collocation. This study suggests that, in line with non-fractional diffusion problems, the approximation order for smooth solutions in the fractional case is p+2-α for even p, and p+1-α for odd p.

We construct high-accuracy semi-analytic mode functions for scalar cosmological perturbations in mLQC-I within the hybrid approach to study ultraviolet regularity and gravitational particle creation. The evolution comprises an asymptotic pre-de Sitter branch, a pre-inflationary region containing the quantum bounce, and inflation. In the intermediate region, we construct the complete third-order uniform asymptotic solution and introduce adaptive defect correction. The third-order approximation achieves sub-percent complex-mode accuracy for representative higher-wavenumber modes; defect-corrected solutions agree with numerical evolution at the 0.00001% level over the tested low-wavenumber range. Retaining amplitudes and phases provides a controlled basis for future precision calculations of primordial power spectra and non-Gaussian correlations. We compare the de Sitter vacuum selected in the remote contracting branch with a fourth-order adiabatic state imposed at the bounce. Finite-wavenumber matching and the strict ultraviolet limit require different asymptotic treatments: extrapolating the leading connection to infinite wavenumber yields a spurious constant negative-frequency coefficient and an apparent ultraviolet divergence. Instead, the large-wavenumber de Sitter mode agrees with the fourth-order adiabatic expansion through the order required for energy-momentum tensor renormalization, and smooth exact evolution preserves this ultraviolet structure. Finite and intermediate modes can nevertheless undergo nonadiabatic Bogoliubov mixing and particle creation. Finite-mode particle production thus coexists with ultraviolet regularity. The ultraviolet argument also extends to the dressed-metric approach in its corresponding large-wavenumber regime, while quantitative mode functions must be recalculated using its effective mass.

Model order reduction has been extensively studied over the last two decades. Projection-based methods such as the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition and the Reduced Basis Method enjoy the important advantages of Galerkin methods in the derivation of the reduced problem, but are limited to linear data compression for which the reduced solution is sought as a linear combination of spatial modes. Nonlinear data compression must be used when the solution manifold is not embedded in a low-dimensional subspace. Early methods involve piecewise linear data compression, by constructing a dictionary of reduced-order models tailored to a partition of the solution manifold. In this work, we introduce the concept of optimal partition of the solution manifold in terms of normalized Kolmogorov widths, and prove that the optimal partitions can be found by means of a representative-based clustering algorithm using the sine dissimilarity measure on the solution manifold.

We obtain closed-form solutions of several inhomogeneous Lienard equations by the factorization method. The two factorization conditions involved in the method are turned into a system of first-order differential equations containing the forcing term. In this way, one can find the forcing terms that lead to integrable cases. Because of the reduction of order feature of factorization, the solutions are simultaneously solutions of first-order differential equations with polynomial nonlinearities. The illustrative examples of Lienard solutions obtained in this way generically have rational parts, and consequently display singularities.

The Karhunen--Loève transform (KLT) of the stationary AR(1) source is the classical optimality benchmark of transform coding. Its frequencies are roots of the transcendental equations of Ray and Driver, and the transform has therefore long been treated as an unstructured dense matrix. Rather than compute the exact KLT, the field turned to fast approximations of it, most famously the discrete cosine transform (DCT). This paper shows that the retreat was premature. The exact AR(1) KLT admits direct recursive factorizations, at every order Nge2 and every correlation coefficient ρin(0,1): at even orders, the transform reduces to a butterfly stage, two half-order copies of itself, and orthogonal corrections generated by rank-one boundary perturbations of the covariance; at odd orders, to two copies of the KLT of the one-sided prediction residual and an arrowhead stage absorbing the center sample. The residual KLT recurses through half order as well. All correction stages are Cauchy-structured, and applying them by the fast multipole method yields exact-KLT algorithms of O(Nlog N) complexity---the same order as the FFT and the fast sinusoidal transforms. The factorizations follow from the covariance matrix by the Sherman--Morrison identity and the classical secular eigenvalue updates, and degenerate, as ρto1, to the known parity splittings of the DCT-II. As secondary results, the factorization constants are shown to be algebraic functions of ρ---in radicals for all Nle8---and complete exact KLT modules for N=2,dots,8 are given.

We investigate scalar induced gravitational waves (SIGWs) at third-order during a matter-dominated (MD) era. We classify the sources into four parts---built from three first-order scalars, and from a first-order scalar times the second-order tensor, vector, and scalar perturbations---and obtain all four kernel functions analytically in closed form. Unlike their radiation-dominated counterparts, the MD kernel functions grow secularly, translating into a rapid growth of the spectrum, Ω^{(3)}_{GW}propto x^{6} versus Ω^{(2)}_{GW}propto x^{2} at xequiv kηgg1. We derive the third-order power spectrum as a five-fold integral for a general primordial spectrum, and evaluate it numerically for a monochromatic one, where all contributions from the second-order vector source vanish identically. As an application, we consider the early MD era driven by primordial black holes (PBHs) before their evaporation. Requiring that the induced gravitational waves do not backreact on the cosmological perturbations, intdln k, Ω^{tot}_{GW}<1 then bounds the initial PBH abundance as Ω_{PBH,f}lesssim4.6times10^{-7}, (m_{PBH}/10^{7},g)^{-0.48}, about three orders of magnitude stronger than the second-order-only bound. Our results indicate that higher-order SIGWs inevitably become nonperturbative during a sufficiently long MD era, with important implications for scenarios involving an early matter domination.

We introduce spatiotemporal solitons of the two-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (2D CCQGLE) with cubic and quintic nonlinearities in which asymmetry between space-time variables is included. The 2D CCQGLE is solved by a powerful Fourier spectral method, i.e., a Fourier spatial discretization and an explicit scheme for time differencing. Varying the system's parameters, and using different initial conditions, numerical simulations reveal 2D solitons in the form of stationary, pulsating and exploding solitons which possess very distinctive properties. For certain regions of parameters, we have also found stable coherent structures in the form of spinning (vortex) solitons which exist as a result of a competition between focusing nonlinearities and spreading while propagating through medium.

A review of three-dimensional waves on deep-water is presented. Three forms of three dimensionality, namely oblique, forced and spontaneous type, are identified. An alternative formulation for these three-dimensional waves is given through cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The periodic solutions of the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation are found using Weierstrass elliptic wp functions. It is shown that the classification of solutions depends on the boundary conditions, wavenumber and frequency. For certain parameters, Weierstrass wp functions are reduced to periodic, hyperbolic or Jacobi elliptic functions. It is demonstrated that some of these solutions do not have any physical significance. An analytical solution of cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with wind forcing is also obtained which results in how groups of waves are generated on the surface of deep water in the ocean. In this case the dependency on the energy-transfer parameter, from wind to waves, make either the groups of wave to grow initially and eventually dissipate, or simply decay or grow in time.

The two-body problem of variational electrodynamics possesses differential-delay equations of motion with state-dependent delays of neutral type and solutions that can have velocity discontinuities on countable sets. From a periodic orbit possessing some mild properties at breaking points, we define a synchronization function in R x R3, which is further used to construct two bounded oscillatory functions vanishing at breaking points and whose first derivatives are continuous and defined everywhere but at breaking points. The oscillatory functions are associated with a PDE identity in H2(R3), and we postulate ordering conditions for the PDE identity to define a Fredholm-Schroedinger operator with an O(1/r2) spin-orbit forcing term belonging to L2(R3). As an application, we introduce the Chemical Principle criterion to select orbits with asymptotically vanishing far-fields and estimate the Bohr radius parameter of the Fredholm-Schroedinger PDE using the boundary-layer of orbits chosen according to the Chemical Principle criterion. Last, working backward, we derive a Chemical Principle-like condition from the ordering conditions.

Efficient differential equation solvers have significantly reduced the sampling time of diffusion models (DMs) while retaining high sampling quality. Among these solvers, exponential integrators (EI) have gained prominence by demonstrating state-of-the-art performance. However, existing high-order EI-based sampling algorithms rely on degenerate EI solvers, resulting in inferior error bounds and reduced accuracy in contrast to the theoretically anticipated results under optimal settings. This situation makes the sampling quality extremely vulnerable to seemingly innocuous design choices such as timestep schedules. For example, an inefficient timestep scheduler might necessitate twice the number of steps to achieve a quality comparable to that obtained through carefully optimized timesteps. To address this issue, we reevaluate the design of high-order differential solvers for DMs. Through a thorough order analysis, we reveal that the degeneration of existing high-order EI solvers can be attributed to the absence of essential order conditions. By reformulating the differential equations in DMs and capitalizing on the theory of exponential integrators, we propose refined EI solvers that fulfill all the order conditions, which we designate as Refined Exponential Solver (RES). Utilizing these improved solvers, RES exhibits more favorable error bounds theoretically and achieves superior sampling efficiency and stability in practical applications. For instance, a simple switch from the single-step DPM-Solver++ to our order-satisfied RES solver when Number of Function Evaluations (NFE) =9, results in a reduction of numerical defects by 25.2% and FID improvement of 25.4% (16.77 vs 12.51) on a pre-trained ImageNet diffusion model.

Reduced-order modeling (ROM) of time-dependent and parameterized differential equations aims to accelerate the simulation of complex high-dimensional systems by learning a compact latent manifold representation that captures the characteristics of the solution fields and their time-dependent dynamics. Although high-fidelity numerical solvers generate the training datasets, they have thus far been excluded from the training process, causing the learned latent dynamics to drift away from the discretized governing physics. This mismatch often limits generalization and forecasting capabilities. In this work, we propose Physics-informed ROM (Φ-ROM) by incorporating differentiable PDE solvers into the training procedure. Specifically, the latent space dynamics and its dependence on PDE parameters are shaped directly by the governing physics encoded in the solver, ensuring a strong correspondence between the full and reduced systems. Our model outperforms state-of-the-art data-driven ROMs and other physics-informed strategies by accurately generalizing to new dynamics arising from unseen parameters, enabling long-term forecasting beyond the training horizon, maintaining continuity in both time and space, and reducing the data cost. Furthermore, Φ-ROM learns to recover and forecast the solution fields even when trained or evaluated with sparse and irregular observations of the fields, providing a flexible framework for field reconstruction and data assimilation. We demonstrate the framework's robustness across various PDE solvers and highlight its broad applicability by providing an open-source JAX implementation that is readily extensible to other PDE systems and differentiable solvers, available at https://phi-rom.github.io.

Denoising diffusion models (DDMs) have emerged as a powerful class of generative models. A forward diffusion process slowly perturbs the data, while a deep model learns to gradually denoise. Synthesis amounts to solving a differential equation (DE) defined by the learnt model. Solving the DE requires slow iterative solvers for high-quality generation. In this work, we propose Higher-Order Denoising Diffusion Solvers (GENIE): Based on truncated Taylor methods, we derive a novel higher-order solver that significantly accelerates synthesis. Our solver relies on higher-order gradients of the perturbed data distribution, that is, higher-order score functions. In practice, only Jacobian-vector products (JVPs) are required and we propose to extract them from the first-order score network via automatic differentiation. We then distill the JVPs into a separate neural network that allows us to efficiently compute the necessary higher-order terms for our novel sampler during synthesis. We only need to train a small additional head on top of the first-order score network. We validate GENIE on multiple image generation benchmarks and demonstrate that GENIE outperforms all previous solvers. Unlike recent methods that fundamentally alter the generation process in DDMs, our GENIE solves the true generative DE and still enables applications such as encoding and guided sampling.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive high-order method for hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. The proposed method is based on a dual formulation approach: Two numerical solutions, corresponding to conservative and nonconservative formulations of the same system, are evolved simultaneously. Since nonconservative schemes are known to produce nonphysical weak solutions near discontinuities, we exploit the difference between these two solutions to construct a smoothness indicator (SI). In smooth regions, the difference between the conservative and nonconservative solutions is of the same order as the truncation error of the underlying discretization, whereas in nonsmooth regions, it is {cal O}(1). We apply this idea to the Euler equations of gas dynamics and define the SI using differences in the momentum and pressure variables. This choice allows us to further distinguish neighborhoods of contact discontinuities from other nonsmooth parts of the computed solution. The resulting classification is used to adaptively select numerical discretizations. In the vicinities of contact discontinuities, we employ the low-dissipation central-upwind numerical flux and a second-order piecewise linear reconstruction with the slopes computed using an overcompressive SBM limiter. Elsewhere, we use an alternative weighted essentially non-oscillatory (A-WENO) framework with the central-upwind finite-volume numerical fluxes and either unlimited (in smooth regions) or Ai-WENO-Z (in the nonsmooth regions away from contact discontinuities) fifth-order interpolation. Numerical results for the one- and two-dimensional compressible Euler equations show that the proposed adaptive method improves both the computational efficiency and resolution of complex flow features compared with the non-adaptive fifth-order A-WENO scheme.

A cylindrical TM_{0,1,0} mode microwave cavity resonator was excited using a balanced interferometric configuration that allowed manipulation of the electric field and potential within the resonator by adjusting the phase and amplitude of the interferometer arms driving the resonator. With precise tuning of the phase and amplitude, 25 dB suppression of the electric field at the resonance frequency was achieved while simultaneously resonantly enhancing the time-varying electric-scalar potential. Under these conditions, the system demonstrated electromagnetically induced absorption in the cavity response due to the annulment of the electric field at the resonance frequency. This phenomena can be regarded as a form of extreme dispersion, and led to a sharp increase in the cavity phase versus frequency response by an order of magnitude when compared to the cavity Q-factor. This work presents an experimental setup that will allow the electric-scalar Aharonov-Bohm effect to be tested under conditions involving a time-varying electric-scalar potential, without the presence of an electric field or magnetic vector potential, an experiment that has not yet been realised.

We emphasize two connections, one well known and another less known, between the dissipative nonlinear second order differential equations and the Abel equations which in its first kind form have only cubic and quadratic terms. Then, employing an old integrability criterion due to Chiellini, we introduce the corresponding integrable dissipative equations. For illustration, we present the cases of some integrable dissipative Fisher, nonlinear pendulum, and Burgers-Huxley type equations which are obtained in this way and can be of interest in applications. We also show how to obtain Abel solutions directly from the factorization of second-order nonlinear equations

Weak perturbations of equal size can produce terminal Wasserstein errors of different orders. For Gaussian-smoothed infinitely divisible laws, we differentiate distribution functions with respect to variance-weighted Lévy characteristics, including distributional directions generated by moving atoms. We obtain first- and second-order expansions uniform over Lipschitz tests. Gaussian analyticity identifies the signed second coefficient of the Wasserstein-1 distance when the first response is nonzero. When it vanishes, a finite second displacement moment yields a quadratic response, strictly positive for nonzero displacement dispersion. For local balanced remeshing, the error is comparable to the grid-alignment variance, giving sharp quadratic grid rates for compactly supported densities and nonaligned atomic sequences. We derive metric speed and length along admissible non-atomic curves and a response-based linear program with a certified oracle gap and consistent quadrature. We also establish the sharp vanishing-smoothing transition and a multivariate second-order expansion. The Supplement treats state-dependent responses and further stability estimates.

Disordered stealthy hyperuniform (SHU) systems are emerging as platforms for controlling classical and quantum transport due to vanishing single-scattering contributions in the stealthy regime. Here, to our knowledge, we present the first perturbation theory of one-dimensional quantum transport through a continuum of identical point scatterers with SHU positional disorder. Our perturbation theory indicates the exact cancellation of all the lower-order terms due to the Fourier-space stealthy condition S(q)=0, and the further suppression of the lowest non-vanishing fourth order in the Lyapunov exponent λ(k) due to the real-space hyperuniform constraint limlimits_{Dtoinfty}σ_D^2=c<infty. Our findings presents universal implications of the general wave-propagation phenomena in disordered SHU systems.

Fourier Neural Operators (FNO) learn solution operators of partial differential equations by parameterizing global convolutions in the complex Fourier domain. For real-valued PDE solutions, the complex FFT carries representational redundancy through conjugate symmetry. We introduce the Hartley Neural Operator (HNO), the exact real-valued mirror of FNO: it replaces the FFT with the purely real Discrete Hartley Transform and learns a single real multiplier per retained spectral mode, with no complex arithmetic. Because the real Hartley spectrum is not halved by conjugate symmetry, HNO retains twice as many frequency corners as FNO but one real weight where FNO carries a complex pair, so the two operators are iso-parametric at equal width and differ only in spectral basis. Our central thesis is that the best basis is a property of the operator. Self-adjoint elliptic operators (Poisson, biharmonic) have real, symmetric Green's functions that the real Hartley multiplier diagonalizes exactly, and HNO is favored there. Time-dependent operators carry phase, from oscillation in the wave equation to transport in advection, Burgers, and Navier-Stokes, which a real diagonal multiplier cannot represent, so FNO is favored there, and increasingly so with the operator's phase content, leaving the phaseless heat equation as the borderline case. Training both operators identically and benchmarking across PDE classes, initial-condition families, and boundary conditions, we find an elliptic-versus-time-dependent split that is monotone in operator phase content and matches the Green's-function theory we develop. Rather than a universal winner, our findings give a predictive rule: match the spectral basis to the symmetry of the solution operator.

Diffusion probabilistic models (DPMs) are emerging powerful generative models. Despite their high-quality generation performance, DPMs still suffer from their slow sampling as they generally need hundreds or thousands of sequential function evaluations (steps) of large neural networks to draw a sample. Sampling from DPMs can be viewed alternatively as solving the corresponding diffusion ordinary differential equations (ODEs). In this work, we propose an exact formulation of the solution of diffusion ODEs. The formulation analytically computes the linear part of the solution, rather than leaving all terms to black-box ODE solvers as adopted in previous works. By applying change-of-variable, the solution can be equivalently simplified to an exponentially weighted integral of the neural network. Based on our formulation, we propose DPM-Solver, a fast dedicated high-order solver for diffusion ODEs with the convergence order guarantee. DPM-Solver is suitable for both discrete-time and continuous-time DPMs without any further training. Experimental results show that DPM-Solver can generate high-quality samples in only 10 to 20 function evaluations on various datasets. We achieve 4.70 FID in 10 function evaluations and 2.87 FID in 20 function evaluations on the CIFAR10 dataset, and a 4sim 16times speedup compared with previous state-of-the-art training-free samplers on various datasets.

We develop a spacetime neural network method with second order optimization for solving quantum dynamics from the high dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger equation. In contrast to the standard iterative first order optimization and the time-dependent variational principle, our approach utilizes the implicit mid-point method and generates the solution for all spatial and temporal values simultaneously after optimization. We demonstrate the method in the Schr\"{o}dinger equation with a self-normalized autoregressive spacetime neural network construction. Future explorations for solving different high dimensional differential equations are discussed.

Many machine learning algorithms rely on the Fourier transform, which is also the inner core of many analog computing devices and, specifically, of optical computing. The square of the modulus of the Fourier spectrum naturally maps onto pairwise interactions, as in the renowned Ising model, making it applicable to combinatorial optimization. Here we show how the nonlinear Fourier transform, related to integrable nonlinear partial differential equations, significantly widens the computational capability and also enables a wide variety of computing gates. We study specifically the case of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation; we introduce an input composed by ``tokens'', i.e., batches of information encoded in a multi-step potential, and we show how the nonlinear spectral computing arising in the wave propagation not only generalizes combinatorial optimization to higher order problems, but also realizes boolean gates. In the weakly nonlinear regime, nonlinearity generates higher-order interactions as perturbative corrections to the pairwise terms. In the solitonic regime, the discrete nonlinear spectrum performs digital computation through soliton generation. By using four input tokens, we demonstrate the programmability of all 256 Boolean functions of three variables, including 3-SAT instances. Our results show that integrable nonlinear propagation provides an unprecedented single physical platform for higher-order and logical computation, opening the way to a rich variety of new algorithms for analog computing, machine learning, and classical and quantum information processing.

Using a variational formulation for partial differential equations (PDEs) combined with numerical simulations on ordinary differential equations (ODEs), we find two categories (pulses and snakes) of dissipative solitons, and analyze the dependence of both their shape and stability on the physical parameters of the cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE). In contrast to the regular solitary waves investigated in numerous integrable and non-integrable systems over the last three decades, these dissipative solitons are not stationary in time. Rather, they are spatially confined pulse-type structures whose envelopes exhibit complicated temporal dynamics. Numerical simulations reveal very interesting bifurcations sequences as the parameters of the CGLE are varied. Our predictions on the variation of the soliton amplitude, width, position, speed and phase of the solutions using the variational formulation agree with simulation results.

We present a model for chi^{(2)} waveguides accounting for three modes, two of which make an avoided crossing at the second harmonic wavelength. We introduce two linearly coupled pure modes and adjust the coupling to replicate the waveguide dispersion near the avoided crossing. Analysis of the nonlinear system reveals continuous wave (CW) solutions across much of the parameter-space and prevalence of its modulational instability. We also predict the existence of the avoided-crossing solitons, and study peculiarities of their dynamics and spectral properties, which include formation of a pedestal in the pulse tails and associated pronounced spectral peaks. Mapping these solitons onto the linear dispersion diagrams, we make connections between their existence and CW existence and stability. We also simulate the two-color soliton generation from a single frequency pump pulse to back up its formation and stability properties.

Nonlinear model order reduction has opened the door to parameter optimization and uncertainty quantification in complex physics problems governed by nonlinear equations. In particular, the computational cost of solving these equations can be reduced by means of local reduced-order bases. This article examines the benefits of a physics-informed cluster analysis for the construction of cluster-specific reduced-order bases. We illustrate that the choice of the dissimilarity measure for clustering is fundamental and highly affects the performances of the local reduced-order bases. It is shown that clustering with an angle-based dissimilarity on simulation data efficiently decreases the intra-cluster Kolmogorov N-width. Additionally, an a priori efficiency criterion is introduced to assess the relevance of a ROM-net, a methodology for the reduction of nonlinear physics problems introduced in our previous work in [T. Daniel, F. Casenave, N. Akkari, D. Ryckelynck, Model order reduction assisted by deep neural networks (ROM-net), Advanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences 7 (16), 2020]. This criterion also provides engineers with a very practical method for ROM-nets' hyperparameters calibration under constrained computational costs for the training phase. On five different physics problems, our physics-informed clustering strategy significantly outperforms classic strategies for the construction of local reduced-order bases in terms of projection errors.

We present an open-source Python library for simulating two-dimensional incompressible Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in stratified shear flows. The solver employs a fractional-step projection method with spectral Poisson solution via Fast Sine Transform, achieving second-order spatial accuracy. Implementation leverages NumPy, SciPy, and Numba JIT compilation for efficient computation. Four canonical test cases explore Reynolds numbers 1000--5000 and Richardson numbers 0.1--0.3: classical shear layer, double shear configuration, rotating flow, and forced turbulence. Statistical analysis using Shannon entropy and complexity indices reveals that double shear layers achieve 2.8times higher mixing rates than forced turbulence despite lower Reynolds numbers. The solver runs efficiently on standard desktop hardware, with 384times192 grid simulations completing in approximately 31 minutes. Results demonstrate that mixing efficiency depends on instability generation pathways rather than intensity measures alone, challenging Richardson number-based parameterizations and suggesting refinements for subgrid-scale representation in climate models.

We propose a mass-dependent MOM scheme to renormalize UV divergence of unpolarized PDFs at one-loop order. This approach which is based on a once subtracted dispersion relation does not need any regulator. The overall counterterms are obtained from the imaginary part of large transverse momentum region in loop integrals. The mass-dependent characteristic of the scheme yields to mass-dependent splitting functions for the DGLAP evolution equations. While the flavor number is fixed at any renormalization scale, the decoupling theorem is automatically imposed by the mass-dependent splitting functions. The required symmetries are also automatically respected by our prescription.

The edge-of-chaos condition preserves first-order input perturbations in wide randomly initialized networks, but physics-informed losses, score matching and derivative regularization depend on higher input derivatives. For smooth scalar-input fully connected networks, using a joint Gaussianity of the finite derivative jet that holds in the infinite-width limit at each fixed depth, we derive mean-field recursions through third order that are exact at the variance fixed point, with finite-depth corrections that decay geometrically. At criticality, the first-derivative variance is depth-invariant, whereas the second-derivative variance grows linearly whenever the activation has nonzero curvature. The resulting third-order system closes on mean-field susceptibilities. For residual networks with branch scale L^{-1/2}, we prove that every fixed finite derivative order has uniformly bounded variance under explicit regularity assumptions. Simulations verify the critical growth laws, the residual bound, and the closed recursion. The results concern initialization, not trained-network performance.

For the case of nonlinear second-order differential equations with a constant coefficient of the first derivative term and polynomial nonlinearities, the factorization conditions of Rosu and Cornejo-Perez are approached in two ways: (i) by commuting the subindices of the factorization functions in the two factorization conditions and (ii) by leaving invariant only the first factorization condition achieved by using monomials or polynomial sequences. For the first case, the factorization brackets commute and the generated equations are only equations of Ermakov-Pinney type. The second modification is non commuting, leading to nonlinear equations with different nonlinear force terms, but the same first-order part as the initially factored equation. It is illustrated for monomials with the examples of the generalized Fisher and FitzHugh-Nagumo initial equations. A polynomial sequence example is also included.

We address the challenge of sound propagation simulations in 3D virtual rooms with moving sources, which have applications in virtual/augmented reality, game audio, and spatial computing. Solutions to the wave equation can describe wave phenomena such as diffraction and interference. However, simulating them using conventional numerical discretization methods with hundreds of source and receiver positions is intractable, making stimulating a sound field with moving sources impractical. To overcome this limitation, we propose using deep operator networks to approximate linear wave-equation operators. This enables the rapid prediction of sound propagation in realistic 3D acoustic scenes with moving sources, achieving millisecond-scale computations. By learning a compact surrogate model, we avoid the offline calculation and storage of impulse responses for all relevant source/listener pairs. Our experiments, including various complex scene geometries, show good agreement with reference solutions, with root mean squared errors ranging from 0.02 Pa to 0.10 Pa. Notably, our method signifies a paradigm shift as no prior machine learning approach has achieved precise predictions of complete wave fields within realistic domains. We anticipate that our findings will drive further exploration of deep neural operator methods, advancing research in immersive user experiences within virtual environments.

Large nonlinear recurrent neural networks with random couplings generate high-dimensional, potentially chaotic activity whose structure is of interest in neuroscience and other fields. A fundamental object encoding the collective structure of this activity is the N times N covariance matrix. Prior analytical work on the covariance matrix has been limited to low-dimensional summary statistics. Recent work proposed an ansatz in which, at large N, the covariance matrix for a typical quenched realization takes the same form as that of a linear network with the same couplings, driven by independent noise, with DMFT order parameters setting the transfer function and the noise spectrum. Here, we derive this ansatz using the two-site cavity method, providing two derivations with complementary perspectives. The first decomposes each unit's activity into a linear response to its local field and a nonlinear residual, and shows that cross-covariances between residuals at distinct sites are strongly suppressed, so the residuals act as independent noise driving a linear network. The second derives a self-consistent matrix equation for the covariance matrix. A naive Gaussian closure for the joint statistics of local fields at distinct sites misses cross terms that, in a linear network, would be generated by an external drive. The cavity method recovers these terms from non-Gaussian contributions, revealing an emergent external drive. Higher-order cross-site moments follow a Wick-like decomposition into products of pairwise covariances at leading order, reducing them to the linear-equivalent form. We verify the predictions in simulations. These results extend linear equivalence from feedforward high-dimensional nonlinear systems, where the activations are independent of the weights, to recurrent networks, where the activations are correlated with the couplings that generate them.

In this paper, we develop and implement an efficient asymptotic-preserving (AP) scheme to solve the gas mixture of Boltzmann equations under the disparate mass scaling relevant to the so-called "epochal relaxation" phenomenon. The disparity in molecular masses, ranging across several orders of magnitude, leads to significant challenges in both the evaluation of collision operators and the designing of time-stepping schemes to capture the multi-scale nature of the dynamics. A direct implementation of the spectral method faces prohibitive computational costs as the mass ratio increases due to the need to resolve vastly different thermal velocities. Unlike [I. M. Gamba, S. Jin, and L. Liu, Commun. Math. Sci., 17 (2019), pp. 1257-1289], we propose an alternative approach based on proper truncation of asymptotic expansions of the collision operators, which significantly reduces the computational complexity and works well for small varepsilon. By incorporating the separation of three time scales in the model's relaxation process [P. Degond and B. Lucquin-Desreux, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 6 (1996), pp. 405-436], we design an AP scheme that captures the specific dynamics of the disparate mass model while maintaining computational efficiency. Numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in handling large mass ratios of heavy and light species, as well as capturing the epochal relaxation phenomenon.

The transition of an impulsively excited kink oscillation of a solar coronal loop to an oscillation with a stationary amplitude, i.e., the damping pattern, is determined using the low-dimensional self-oscillation model. In the model, the decayless kink oscillations are sustained by the interaction of the oscillating loop with an external quasi-steady flow. The analytical solution is based on the assumption that the combined effect of the effective dissipation, for example, by resonant absorption, and interaction with an external flow, is weak. The effect is characterised by a dimensionless coupling parameter. The damping pattern is found to depend upon the initial amplitude and the coupling parameter. The approximate expression shows a good agreement with a numerical solution of the self-oscillation equation. The plausibility of the established damping pattern is demonstrated by an observational example. Notably, the damping pattern is not exponential, and the characteristic decay time is different from the time determined by the traditionally used exponential damping fit. Implications of this finding for seismology of the solar coronal plasmas are discussed. In particular, it is suggested that a very rapid, in less than the oscillation period, decay of the oscillation to the stationary level, achieved for larger values of the coupling parameter, can explain the relative rareness of the kink oscillation events.

We study the sparse phase retrieval problem, which seeks to recover a sparse signal from a limited set of magnitude-only measurements. In contrast to prevalent sparse phase retrieval algorithms that primarily use first-order methods, we propose an innovative second-order algorithm that employs a Newton-type method with hard thresholding. This algorithm overcomes the linear convergence limitations of first-order methods while preserving their hallmark per-iteration computational efficiency. We provide theoretical guarantees that our algorithm converges to the s-sparse ground truth signal x^{natural} in R^n (up to a global sign) at a quadratic convergence rate after at most O(log (Vertx^{natural} Vert /x_{min}^{natural})) iterations, using Omega(s^2log n) Gaussian random samples. Numerical experiments show that our algorithm achieves a significantly faster convergence rate than state-of-the-art methods.

In this paper the effect of a small dissipation on waves is included to find exact solutions to the modified BBM equation. Using Lyapunov functions and dynamical systems theory, we prove that when viscosity is added to the BBM equation, in certain regions there still exist bounded traveling wave solutions in the form of solitary waves, periodic, and elliptic functions. By using the canonical form of Abel equation, the polynomial Appell invariant make the equation integrable in terms of Weierstrass wp functions. We will use a general formalism based on Ince's transformation to write the general solution of dissipative BBM in terms of wp functions, from which all the other known solutions can be obtained via simplifying assumptions. Using ODE analysis we show that the traveling wave speed is a bifurcation parameter that makes transition between different classes of waves.

Let G be a Lie group equipped with commuting left and right linear representations on a vector space V, and let GJoin V be the associated centered semidirect product. We develop a reduction scheme for covariant field theories on principal bundles with structure group GJoin V from both Lagrangian and Hamiltonian perspectives, obtaining the reduced Euler-Poincaré and Lie-Poisson field equations decomposed into their mathfrak g- and V-components, where mathfrak g is the Lie algebra of G. We also derive the reduced multisymplectic form formula, as well as the Noether and energy-momentum balance laws. Our reduction results are compared with those for principal bundles with standard semidirect-product structure groups, and the role of the centered variables is investigated: they retain the original two-sided geometric data and separate the left and right contributions via the heart and diamond operators. The framework is then applied to a two-sided matrix microstructural model and to the second-order jet group on mathbb R^r, G_r^2. For the matrix model, the conjugation representation decomposes Mat(3) into scalar, vector, and symmetric-traceless sectors, clarifying its precise relation to director and alignment-tensor variables without identifying it with standard nematodynamics. For the one-dimensional jet group on a (1+1)-dimensional Minkowski base, we obtain a semilinear symmetric-hyperbolic system and an exact traveling conversion front with explicit energy-momentum exchange between the linear- and quadratic-jet sectors. Its hyperbolic-target interpretation yields a conserved positive energy for the linearized perturbations. A nonlinear numerical experiment illustrates the reduced evolution and reconstruction of the group-valued field, with consistency assessed through mesh refinement and an independent wave-map computation.

We develop a direct paradifferential approach to nonlinear graph integral operators arising in contour dynamics. The main methodological result is an abstract structure-preserving paralinearization theorem, valid in arbitrary dimension, for a class of homogeneous kernels whose nonlinear dependence on the graph is expressed through normalized finite differences. The theorem covers both critical principal-value kernels and subcritical locally integrable kernels, gives explicit formulas for the principal symbols, and separates the finite-order symbolic contribution generated by the homogeneous singularity from order-zero far-field terms and arbitrarily smoothing remainders. A structural feature of the reduction is the cancellation of the intermediate symbolic order; at the critical endpoint the construction also preserves the exact skew-adjoint structure of the original singular integral. As a main application, we consider the three-dimensional two-phase free-boundary Euler equations with constant interfacial background vorticity. We first derive an autonomous contour-dynamics equation in canonical surface variables and then apply the abstract theorem directly to the singular integral operators generated by the Birkhoff--Rott formulation. This yields the complete paradifferential structure of the system without taking the Dirichlet--Neumann reduction as a starting point. After introducing an Alinhac good unknown and diagonalizing the resulting system, we obtain local well-posedness for small Sobolev perturbations in the stable Kelvin--Rayleigh--Taylor regime, uniformly on compact subsets of the stable parameter set.

Denoisers play a central role in many applications, from noise suppression in low-grade imaging sensors, to empowering score-based generative models. The latter category of methods makes use of Tweedie's formula, which links the posterior mean in Gaussian denoising (\ie the minimum MSE denoiser) with the score of the data distribution. Here, we derive a fundamental relation between the higher-order central moments of the posterior distribution, and the higher-order derivatives of the posterior mean. We harness this result for uncertainty quantification of pre-trained denoisers. Particularly, we show how to efficiently compute the principal components of the posterior distribution for any desired region of an image, as well as to approximate the full marginal distribution along those (or any other) one-dimensional directions. Our method is fast and memory-efficient, as it does not explicitly compute or store the high-order moment tensors and it requires no training or fine tuning of the denoiser. Code and examples are available on the project webpage in https://hilamanor.github.io/GaussianDenoisingPosterior/ .

We obtain (small-parameter) well-posedness for the (space-time periodic) Phi^4 equation in the full subcritical regime in the context of regularity structures based on multi-indices. As opposed to Hairer's more extrinsic tree-based setting, due to the intrinsic description encoded by multi-indices, it is not possible to obtain a solution theory via the standard fixed-point argument. Instead, we develop a more intrinsic approach for existence using a variant of the continuity method from classical PDE theory based on a priori estimates for a new `robust' formulation of the equation. This formulation also allows us to obtain uniqueness of solutions and continuity of the solution map in the model norm even at the limit of vanishing regularisation scale. Since our proof relies on the structure of the nonlinearity in only a mild way, we expect the same ideas to be sufficient to treat a more general class of equations.

The perturbative QCD corrections to the hadronic decay width of the W boson are currently known up to next-to-next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N^4LO), whereas the exact N^5LO correction remains unavailable owing to its formidable computational complexity. In this work, we estimate the N^5LO contributions by adopting Bayesian analysis (BA). Before performing the estimation, the Principle of Maximum Conformality (PMC) is employed to improve the precision of the initial scale-dependent perturbative series. Through recursive application of the renormalization group equation, non-conformal terms are absorbed into the strong running coupling, yielding a scheme-independent, scale-invariant perturbative series with improved convergence. The PMC procedure determines an effective coupling α_s(Q_*), with the PMC scale fixed as Q_* = 100.102~GeV at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. Based on the improved and more precise series, the 95.5% BA credible interval yields an uncertainty of Δδ_QCD|_{PMC, BA}^{N^5LO} = pm 1.0times 10^{-5}. The resulting hadronic branching ratio is B(Wto hadrons)|_PMC = (65.84pm 1.54)%, which is consistent with experimental data within reasonable errors.

We use a simple method that leads to the integrals involved in obtaining the traveling wave solutions of wave equations with one and two exponential nonlinearities. When the constant term in the integrand is zero, implicit solutions in terms of hypergeometric functions are obtained while when that term is nonzero all the basic traveling wave solutions of Liouville, Tzitzeica and their variants, as well as sine/sinh-Gordon equations with important applications in the phenomenology of nonlinear physics and dynamical systems are found through a detailed study of the corresponding elliptic equations

We investigate diffusion approximations for a class of multivariate inhomogeneous finite-velocity random motions motivated by models of active particles. A particle alternates cyclically among prescribed velocity fields V_1,dots,V_p with random run times and evolves according to either a flight dynamics, consisting of piecewise-linear motion, or a gliding dynamics, in which the particle follows the corresponding velocity flow. Under a Kac-type scaling that couples vanishing run times with diverging particle speed, we prove weak convergence of both processes to multidimensional diffusions. It turns out that the order of successive cyclic motions affects the diffusion limit. In addition to the second-order term generated by fluctuations of the random run times, the limiting drift contains directional derivatives DV_i[V_j] of the underlying vector fields. In Stratonovich form, part of this drift is expressed through their Lie brackets [V_i,V_j]. Thus, the generic non-commutativity of the microscopic motions survives the diffusive scaling and generates a macroscopic drift which depends on the cyclic order. The limiting drift also distinguishes the flight and gliding dynamics, despite their being driven by the same vector fields and run times. Several examples, including run-and-reverse motion and cyclic dynamics generated by multiple vector fields, illustrate how the cyclic switching protocol and the geometry of the underlying velocity fields shape the limiting diffusions.

We study the parity-perturbed Hofstadter Q-recursion $ widetilde Q(1)=widetilde Q(2)=1,qquad widetilde Q(n)=widetilde Q(n-widetilde Q(n-1)) +widetilde Q(n-widetilde Q(n-2))+(-1)^n, and the associated two-variable Dirichlet series Z_{widetilde Q}(s,t)=sum_{nge1}n^{-s}widetilde Q(n)^{-t}. The estimate \widetilde Q(n)=n/2+O(n/\log n) gives the exact domain of absolute convergence Re(s+t)>1. With w=s+t, we separate the universal term 2^tζ(w) and derive exact transport, frequency-position, and dyadic renormalization identities. The main result concerns t=-1. For E(n)=2\widetilde Q(n)-n and A(X)=\sum_{n\le X}E(n), the binary-arch clock yields A(X)=Xlog_2X+XΩ!left(log_23X{32}right) +O!left(X{log X}right), where Ω is an explicit continuous periodic function. This continues the normalized correction to Rew>0 and yields a boundary resonance lattice: a double resonance at w=0 and simple resonances at 2πi m/\log2. After subtracting the full-slice order-X skeleton, we analyze the negative-even arch channel. Its companion-forest layers have a weak Gaussian limit, and a canonical subsequence realizes the optimal n/\log n pointwise scale with an explicit signed constant. The negative-arch mass satisfies A_r=512{92π}16^r{sqrt r} left(1-13{16r}+O(r^{-2})right). We do not claim a full-slice continuation across Rew=0$.

We present a new derivation of the exact compact oscillon in the signum-Gordon model using Fourier methods. This approach decomposes the oscillon into an infinite, uniformly convergent series of discrete modes consisting of a fundamental frequency and its odd higher harmonics, in contrast to standard analytic potentials, where the corresponding infinite perturbative series fails to converge. Crucially, our oscillon evades the non-existence theorem for spatially localized, small-amplitude periodic states. We investigate the accuracy of truncating the Fourier series and find that the primary mode alone provides a remarkably accurate approximation of the exact solution, with agreement improving significantly when the first two non-vanishing harmonic modes are included. Furthermore, we generalize this framework to a swaying compact oscillon with a periodically moving boundary. We show that describing such an oscillon requires even-order modes, whose coupling with the odd source terms induces a dynamic modulation that generates the swaying motion, even though the spatial Fourier profiles themselves are time-independent.

We investigate the scaling of the Rényi entanglement entropies for a particle bipartition of interacting spinless fermions in one spatial dimension. In the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid regime, we calculate the second Rényi entanglement entropy and show that the leading order finite-size scaling is equal to a universal logarithm of the system size plus a non-universal constant. Higher-order corrections decay as power-laws in the system size with exponents that depend only on the Luttinger parameter. We confirm the universality of our results by investigating the one dimensional t-V model of interacting spinless fermions via exact-diagonalization techniques. The resulting sensitivity of the particle partition entanglement to boundary conditions and statistics supports its utility as a probe of quantum liquids.

Wentzel, Kramers, Brillouin (WKB) approximation for fractional systems is investigated in this paper using the fractional calculus. In the fractional case the wave function is constructed such that the phase factor is the same as the Hamilton's principle function "S". To demonstrate our proposed approach two examples are investigated in details.

Foundations of a new projection-based model reduction approach for convection dominated nonlinear fluid flows are summarized. In this method the evolution of the flow is approximated in the Lagrangian frame of reference. Global basis functions are used to approximate both the state and the position of the Lagrangian computational domain. It is demonstrated that in this framework, certain wave-like solutions exhibit low-rank structure and thus, can be efficiently compressed using relatively few global basis. The proposed approach is successfully demonstrated for the reduction of several simple but representative problems.

Numerical simulations of the complex cubic-quintic Ginzburg-Landau equation (CCQGLE), a canonical equation governing the weakly nonlinear behavior of dissipative systems in a wide variety of disciplines, reveal five entirely novel classes of pulse or solitary waves solutions, viz. pulsating, creeping, snaking, erupting, and chaotical solitons. Here, we develop a theoretical framework for analyzing the full spatio-temporal structure of one class of dissipative solution (snaking soliton) of the CCQGLE using the variational approximation technique and the dynamical systems theory. The qualitative behavior of the snaking soliton is investigated using the numerical simulations of (a) the full nonlinear complex partial differential equation and (b) a system of three ordinary differential equations resulting from the variational approximation.

We calculate the Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation series for the ground-state energy and the effective mass of the three-dimensional Frohlich polaron through fourth order in the coupling constant alpha. The third- and fourth-order coefficients of the effective mass are new. Because the Frohlich interaction is a form-bounded perturbation of an isolated nondegenerate ground state at fixed total momentum, the series has a nonzero radius of convergence, and we analyze it with the ratio and Pade methods appropriate to convergent series. The coefficients are strikingly regular and are described by a simple power-law singularity at alpha near 8.5 with an exponent near 1.4. The couplings at which successive truncations of the inverse mass vanish, the first of which is the textbook breakdown value alpha = 6, are slowly converging estimates of this radius. Pade approximants built from the weak-coupling coefficients alone agree with diagrammatic Monte Carlo results for the mass to better than one percent for alpha up to 5. Exact results on the analyticity of the ground state and on the strong-coupling asymptotics imply that the coefficients cannot keep a constant sign, although all known coefficients do, so that the apparent singularity must be a complex-conjugate pair close to the positive real axis. It marks the crossover to strong coupling: the weak-coupling series locates this crossover accurately but cannot be continued through it.

The Helmholtz equation governs time-harmonic wave propagation, and in dissipative media a complex modulus renders its squared wavenumber κ^2 complex. Inferring such fields from sparse, noisy data calls for solvers that also quantify their own uncertainty. Physics-informed Gaussian-process (GP) regression supplies this by returning a posterior over the solution, yet operator-conditioned formulations have been developed almost exclusively for real-valued fields. We extend operator-informed GP regression to complex-valued Helmholtz problems by realifying the complex operator into an equivalent coupled real block, which enables inference with standard real-valued GP conditioning. The construction admits a family of priors, from a proper diagonal prior to coregionalized and multiscale variants, and conditions on PDE residuals and boundary traces. On benchmark problems in one to three dimensions, the solver is competitive with finite-difference and neural-network baselines at a far smaller interior-constraint budget. Unlike those deterministic baselines, it returns a posterior over the complex wavefield rather than a point estimate. Applied to in vivo brain magnetic resonance elastography, a proper multiscale prior reconstructs the shear curl field to a correlation of 0.77 with measurement, above a 0.75 target. The gain arises from the multiscale kernel rather than from real--imaginary coupling. We further identify a low-frequency accuracy ceiling set by model mismatch and a posterior uncertainty that is not yet calibrated. Calibrated uncertainty therefore emerges as the central next step for probabilistic wavefield inference in dissipative media.

We prove a sharp nonuniqueness result for the forced generalized SQG equation. First, this yields nonunique H^s- energy solutions below the Miura-Ju class. In particular, this shows that the solutions constructed by Resnick and Marchand for the dissipative SQG equation are not necessarily unique. Second, this establishes nonuniqueness below the Ladyzhenskaya-Prodi-Serrin class for the 2D Navier-Stokes equation, as well as below the Constantin-Wu and Dong-Chen-Zhao-Liu classes for the dissipative SQG equation.

We calculate first-order corrections to the energy, radial period, and circumferential turning radii of equatorial periodic orbits around rapidly rotating black holes in dynamical Chern--Simons (dCS) gravity. Using an analytic fit to the metric correction, we match each orbit to a Kerr reference at fixed dimensionless spin, dimensionless specific angular momentum, and rational periodicity. The period correction combines a direct contribution at fixed energy with compensation from the energy adjustment that preserves periodicity. Their competition produces sign changes across orbital families and reference paths. In a two-parameter scan, negative period corrections are dominated by energy compensation for sampled prograde orbits and by the direct contribution for sampled retrograde orbits. We locate C_T=0 boundaries, where the coefficient of the first-order fractional period correction vanishes. Circumferential shifts can differ in sign from coordinate shifts. Numerical kludge waveforms at leading quadrupole order and their discrete spectra connect these corrections to phase accumulation and harmonic frequency shifts. At fixed dimensionless orbital parameters and physical mass of the small body, this phase contribution can be reproduced to first order by rescaling the Kerr mass. For the C_T=0 orbit examined here, this contribution is suppressed at equal black hole masses, while corrections to the waveform and spectral amplitudes remain nonzero.

Machine learning based solvers have garnered much attention in physical simulation and scientific computing, with a prominent example, physics-informed neural networks (PINNs). However, PINNs often struggle to solve high-frequency and multi-scale PDEs, which can be due to spectral bias during neural network training. To address this problem, we resort to the Gaussian process (GP) framework. To flexibly capture the dominant frequencies, we model the power spectrum of the PDE solution with a student t mixture or Gaussian mixture. We apply the inverse Fourier transform to obtain the covariance function (by Wiener-Khinchin theorem). The covariance derived from the Gaussian mixture spectrum corresponds to the known spectral mixture kernel. Next, we estimate the mixture weights in the log domain, which we show is equivalent to placing a Jeffreys prior. It automatically induces sparsity, prunes excessive frequencies, and adjusts the remaining toward the ground truth. Third, to enable efficient and scalable computation on massive collocation points, which are critical to capture high frequencies, we place the collocation points on a grid, and multiply our covariance function at each input dimension. We use the GP conditional mean to predict the solution and its derivatives so as to fit the boundary condition and the equation itself. As a result, we can derive a Kronecker product structure in the covariance matrix. We use Kronecker product properties and multilinear algebra to promote computational efficiency and scalability, without low-rank approximations. We show the advantage of our method in systematic experiments. The code is released at https://github.com/xuangu-fang/Gaussian-Process-Slover-for-High-Freq-PDE.

In this paper, we investigate the quantum behaviour near the classical singularity of a black hole. We describe the black-hole interior by the Kantowski-Sachs metric, with a string propagating in this region. This approach is motivated by the fact that, near the classical singularity, spacetime curvature reaches Planck or string scales, necessitating a description in terms of string-theoretic degrees of freedom. The string dynamics is formulated via the Polyakov action, and the combined system is canonically quantized to derive the corresponding Wheeler-DeWitt equation. Although the equation is separable in the radial and azimuthal string sectors, the remaining geometric and string degrees of freedom are nontrivially coupled. To address this, we employ a perturbative approach and obtain the wave function up to first order. At the zeroth-order, the angular part is described by the general Heun function, while the geometric part is expressed in terms of the Bessel function. The first-order wave function is governed by a source term containing the zeroth-order solution, and we obtain its explicit expression in terms of the complementary function and the particular integral. We confirm regularity of the wave function at both zeroth and first order, at the singularity as well as at the horizon. Regularity at the horizon imposes a discretization condition on one eigenvalue, while another eigenvalue is quantized due to the azimuthal periodicity of the wave function. Importantly, both zeroth- and first-order solutions satisfy the DeWitt boundary condition, implying resolution of the black hole singularity within this quantum framework.

The coupled cubic nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) equations are used to study modulational instabilities of a pair of nonlinearly interacting two-dimensional waves in deep water. It has been shown that the full dynamics of these interacting waves gives rise to localized large-amplitude wavepackets (wave focusing). In this short letter we attempt to verify this result numerically using a Fourier spectral method for the CNLS equations.

In the past two years, several points of view have been proposed to address the question of the generalization of the theory of free probability to random tensors with different invariances, and it is unclear at this point whether they lead to the same notions of tensorial free cumulants and freeness. One way to approach this problem, developed by Collins, Gurau and the second named author for local unitary invariant random tensors, relies on finite size quantities involving averages over the invariance group, and whose asymptotics naturally possess the properties expected for tensorial generalizations of free cumulants of arbitrary orders. At this point, this approach has only been carried out for certain distributions, and for a subset of the moments that define such theories, and a more systematic and exhaustive study is lacking. This is the program initiated in this paper: we link this approach to the one proposed by Nechita and Park; extend a number of their results as well as those of the aforementioned paper to arbitrary orders of fluctuations, thereby generalizing higher order free cumulants; push further the study of distributions with larger invariance groups; detail the link with the asymptotics of the free-energies of the tensor HCIZ and BGW integrals; and provide formulae for tensorial free cumulants of products of tensors. Another important question is that of the definition of concrete distributions whose tensorial free-cumulants take non-trivial values. We compute the tensorial free cumulants for Gaussian random tensors with non-trivial covariances, and show that they provide such examples.

In this paper, we develop a fully discrete Galerkin method for solving initial value fractional integro-differential equations(FIDEs). We consider Generalized Jacobi polynomials(GJPs) with indexes corresponding to the number of homogeneous initial conditions as natural basis functions for the approximate solution. The fractional derivatives are used in the Caputo sense. The numerical solvability of algebraic system obtained from implementation of proposed method for a special case of FIDEs is investigated. We also provide a suitable convergence analysis to approximate solutions under a more general regularity assumption on the exact solution.

The eight-component relativistic wave equation for spin-1{2} particles of Robson and Staudte (FV1{2}), a Feshbach--Villars linearization of the Feynman--Gell-Mann equation, reproduces the Dirac hydrogenic spectrum with a doubled solution space and an indefinite inner product. Its exact Stark shifts must equal the Dirac ones; whether its indefinite-metric perturbation theory delivers them is not guaranteed. We compute the first- and second-order Stark shifts of the n=1--3 levels of hydrogenic ions from H to U^{91+} in the Schrödinger, Dirac and FV1{2} theories, evaluating all spectral sums, continuum included, by the Dalgarno--Lewis method. The FV1{2} and Dirac shifts coincide level by level, to working precision at first order (closed-form roots) and to 45 significant figures at second order. Both ingredients are needed: without the explicit spin--field coupling the first-order roots become complex, and without the negative-norm states the (Zα)^2 coefficient is wrong. Norm sign and parity are locked in the doubled space: a potential lifting the 2s_{1/2}--2p_{1/2} degeneracy needs its own spin--gradient term, and shifts placed by hand on the κ-labeled states give a spurious imaginary linear Stark shift. The relativistic linear Stark effect is smaller by finite factors, but a second-moment sum rule shows the non-relativistic linear Stark strength is conserved, the missing part reappearing in singular (Zα)^{-2} second-order terms. For levels with a fine-structure partner, an exact intra-shell/regular split of the second-order shift gives the (Zα)^0 coefficients analytically and relates the π^2 terms of the (Zα)^2 coefficients to the singular ones. The Dirac weak/strong-field crossover for n=2 of hydrogen lies near 2.8~kV cm^{-1}, and the perturbative window set by the fine structure grows as Z^5.

We study two-step recurrences with positive step sizes and nonnegative momentum coefficients whose terminal residual is the Chebyshev minimax polynomial on a prescribed spectral interval [μ,L]. These recurrences have the same terminal error on a fixed quadratic, but their first-order responses to stepwise Hessian perturbations can differ. We prove that the sine-Jacobi recurrence of Part I is asymptotically optimal for this response norm within a factor of 1.000004, uniformly over 0<μ<L. Every terminal-exact recurrence satisfies A_Nge(2c_{cert}-o(1))N^{3/2}ε_N^star/(L-μ) with c_{cert}>1.14268353624, whereas the sine-Jacobi recurrence attains the constant 2c_{sin} with c_{sin}<1.14269218. The proof reduces the gain to the diagonal energy of a Jacobi Green matrix. A centering lift represents this matrix by an exponential kernel; packing its diagonal into a density on the line preserves the energy and controls the change in the Birman-Schwinger spectrum. A calibrated identity gives a lower bound using the ground parameter and one Fredholm determinant. Two further determinants and a trace observation improve the bound through a pointwise inequality on an explicit compact state region. One rational certificate verifies this inequality by interval arithmetic. A second certificate constructs a density satisfying the selected observations and both normalizations with energy below the sine value. Finally, no C^1 function of finitely many observations of the specified kinds gives a locally sharp lower bound at the sine density.

Singly-TASE operators for the numerical solution of stiff differential equations were proposed by Calvo et al. in J.Sci. Comput. 2023 to reduce the computational cost of Runge-Kutta-TASE (RKTASE) methods when the involved linear systems are solved by some LU factorization. In this paper we propose a modification of these methods to improve the efficiency by considering different TASE operators for each stage of the Runge-Kutta. We prove that the resulting RKTASE methods are equivalent to W-methods (Steihaug and Wolfbrandt, Mathematics of Computation,1979) and this allows us to obtain the order conditions of the proposed Modified Singly-RKTASE methods (MSRKTASE) through the theory developed for the W-methods. We construct new MSRKTASE methods of order two and three and demonstrate their effectiveness through numerical experiments on both linear and nonlinear stiff systems. The results show that the MSRKTASE schemes significantly enhance efficiency and accuracy compared to previous Singly-RKTASE schemes.

Using the Riesz-Feller fractional derivative, we apply the factorization algorithm to the fractional quantum harmonic oscillator along the lines previously proposed by Olivar-Romero and Rosas-Ortiz, extending their results. We solve the non-Hermitian fractional eigenvalue problem in the k space by introducing in that space a new class of Hermite `polynomials' that we call Riesz-Feller Hermite `polynomials'. Using the inverse Fourier transform in Mathematica, interesting analytic results for the same eigenvalue problem in the x space are also obtained. Additionally, a more general factorization with two different Levy indices is briefly introduced

A persistent and fascinating problem at the high energy colliders are jets. Often trying to observe physics underlying the hard interactions at colliders requires experimental cuts in phase space, defining several jet or beam regions. QCD being a gauge theory that readily decays into infra-red modes, correlations between jet regions is almost inevitable, spoiling the predictivity of fixed order QCD calculations. One is faced with the task of calculating the evolution of a reduced density matrix, where successively less energetic (jet) regions are integrated out, to gain control of the calculation. I relate the decay rates governing the flow into the IR to an effective field theory expansion in soft jets, allowing a systematic and resummed calculation of these rates, while further relating them to physically observable features of the QCD cascade. To demonstrate the utility of the soft jet expansion, I present a factorization theorem for a soft subjet collinearly splitting in and out of a parent fat jet. Using the resummation properties of this factorization theorem, I elucidate the structure of the subleading non-global logs (encoding the jet correlations) in the hemisphere jet mass distribution, as well as give a collinear improvement of the leading order resummation equation, the BMS equation. I compare to other approaches to subleading resummation of NGLs, and find the collinear improvement of the leading order equation removes the need for kinematic-dependent corrections in the IR averaging procedure of the reduced density matrix, so that no further large logs can be generated in the IR. Finally I end with speculation about connections with collinear improvements of the NLO B-JIMWLK hierarchy for small-x resummation.

In the quantum inverse scattering method, the sine-Gordon model is solved on a lattice, and its continuum and infinite-volume limits become uniform only after the length of the box is rescaled. We show that this rescaling, supplemented by an on-shell condition, defines a renormalization scheme. The whole dependence on the cut-off is absorbed into a factor Z_L multiplying the length of the box, with an exponent fixed by the scaling dimension of the vertex operator; neither the field nor the coupling β is renormalized, no subtraction scale is introduced, and the mass parameter receives a finite renormalization, fixed by requiring that the lightest breather has the mass of the boson in the linearized theory. The soliton and breather masses follow from the eigenvalues of the monodromy operator as functions of parameters that do not run, and reduce to the classical and semiclassical results as βrightarrow0. In particular, the mass ratios are produced directly from the regularized construction, while the relation between the lattice parameters and the physical scale is absorbed into Z_L and never needs to be computed. The scheme is a reparameterization of the theory which makes explicit the interplay between integrability and renormalization. We compare it with Coleman's normal ordering and with conformal perturbation theory, and we argue that it extends to ultralocal integrable theories with a massive spectrum, possibly including asymptotically free models that admit an ultralocal lattice regularization.

In this work, we consider the generalized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation $partial_t u+partial_x u+partial_x( |u|^pu)-partial_t partial_x^{2}u=0, quad(t,x) in R times R, with p>4. This equation has the traveling wave solutions \phi_{c}(x-ct), for any frequency c>1. It has been proved by Souganidis and Strauss Strauss-1990 that, there exists a number c_{0}(p)>1, such that solitary waves \phi_{c}(x-ct) with 1<c<c_{0}(p) is orbitally unstable, while for c>c_{0}(p), \phi_{c}(x-ct) is orbitally stable. The linear exponential instability in the former case was further proved by Pego and Weinstein Pego-1991-eigenvalue. In this paper, we prove the orbital instability in the critical case c=c_{0}(p)$.

In this work, we study a fractional diffusion model in time and space, formulated in an open and bounded domain, involving a Caputo fractional derivative of order μin(0,1) with respect to a time scale function Ψ, together with a spectral fractional Laplacian operator of order sin(0,1). The associated direct problem is analyzed, as well as the inverse problem of temporal reconstruction from final data, which is inherently ill-posed. Through a spectral representation, the instability of the problem and the effect of the choice of the function Ψ on the amplification of spectral modes are examined.

Schrödinger operators with nonlocal δ-interaction are studied with the use of the Lax-Phillips scattering theory methods. The condition of applicability of the Lax-Phillips approach in terms of non-cyclic functions is established. Two formulas for the S-matrix are obtained. The first one deals with the Krein-Naimark resolvent formula and the Weyl-Titchmarsh function, whereas the second one is based on modified reflection and transmission coefficients. The S-matrix S(z) is analytical in the lower half-plane C_- when the Schrödinger operator with nonlocal δ-interaction is positive self-adjoint. Otherwise, S(z) is a meromorphic matrix-valued function in C_- and its properties are closely related to the properties of the corresponding Schrödinger operator. Examples of S-matrices are given.

We derive a set of recursion relations for the perturbative evaluation of the scattering of two black holes in Einstein gravity. To illustrate, we solve the equations up to third post-Minkowskian order in the gravitational coupling constant G, recovering the correct result, including the back-reaction from gravitational radiation.

An implicit Euler finite-volume scheme for a nonlocal cross-diffusion system on the multidimensional torus is analyzed. The equations describe the dynamics of population species with repulsive or attractive interactions. The numerical scheme is based on a generalized Scharfetter-Gummel discretization of the nonlocal flux term. For merely integrable kernel functions, the scheme preserves the positivity, total mass, and entropy structure. The existence of a discrete solution and its convergence to a solution to the continuous problem, as the mesh size tends to zero, are shown. A key difficulty is the degeneracy of the generalized Bernoulli function in the Scharfetter-Gummel approximation. This issue is overcome by proving a uniform estimate for the discrete Fisher information, which requires both the Boltzmann and Rao entropy inequalities. Numerical simulations illustrate the features of the scheme in one and two space dimensions.

We show that some Emden-Fowler (EF) equations encountered in astrophysics and cosmology belong to two EF integrable classes of the type d^2z/dχ^2=A χ^{-λ-2}z^n for λ=(n-1)/2 (class one), and λ=n+1 (class two). We find their corresponding invariants which reduce them to first order nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Using particular solutions of such EF equations, the two classes are set in the autonomous nonlinear oscillator form d^2ν/dt^2 +ad ν/dt +b(ν-ν^n)=0, where the coefficients a,b depend only on λ, n. For both classes, we write closed-form solutions in parametric form. The illustrative examples from astrophysics and general relativity correspond to two n=2 cases from class one and two, and one n=5 case from class one, all of them yielding Weierstrass elliptic solutions. It is also noticed that when n=2, EF equations can be studied using the Painlevé reduction method, since they are a particular case of equations of the type d^2z/dχ^2=F(χ)z^2, where F(χ) is the Kustaanheimo-Qvist function

In this paper, we investigate the stability threshold of the two-dimensional Boussinesq system around the Couette flow in an infinite channel Rtimes[-1,1] under Navier-slip boundary condition. To address nonlinear echo chains induced by temperature-vorticity coupling, we construct a two-level frequency-dependent temporal decomposition, with the two levels matched to the infinite and finite superposition principles for the equation, respectively. By fully exploiting the enhanced dissipation effect at each decomposition level, we prove that if the initial perturbation (ω^{in}, θ^{in}) around the Couette flow satisfies |ω^{in}|_{H^4_{x,y}cap L^1_xH^4_y}leq cν^{1{3}}, and |θ^{in}|_{H^5_{x,y}cap L^1_xH^5_y}leq cν^{2{3}+}, the Boussinesq system admits a globally asymptotically stable solution. It should be emphasized that the method in this paper provides an effective approach for the hydrodynamic equations with coupling effects.

Partial differential equations (PDEs) are important tools to model physical systems, and including them into machine learning models is an important way of incorporating physical knowledge. Given any system of linear PDEs with constant coefficients, we propose a family of Gaussian process (GP) priors, which we call EPGP, such that all realizations are exact solutions of this system. We apply the Ehrenpreis-Palamodov fundamental principle, which works like a non-linear Fourier transform, to construct GP kernels mirroring standard spectral methods for GPs. Our approach can infer probable solutions of linear PDE systems from any data such as noisy measurements, or pointwise defined initial and boundary conditions. Constructing EPGP-priors is algorithmic, generally applicable, and comes with a sparse version (S-EPGP) that learns the relevant spectral frequencies and works better for big data sets. We demonstrate our approach on three families of systems of PDE, the heat equation, wave equation, and Maxwell's equations, where we improve upon the state of the art in computation time and precision, in some experiments by several orders of magnitude.

We solve the Schrödinger equation for a particle in the circle with a quantum mechanical bootstrap method. The main idea is that in physical situations one needs solutions of the recursion relations for the Fourier coefficients of the measure that vanish exponentially fast. We show that this results in a (generalized) continued fraction representation of the solution. The solution is an analytical function of the couplings and the energy. We also show how one this method directly computes the density of states and checking that the answer is physical is reduced to checking an inequality for a single variable. We also show how to reconstruct the wave function and how to extract the quasimomentum of the particle as a function of the energy. We illustrate our solution in the simplest case of the Mathieu equation, where we show that the method can easily resolve exponentially small bands in the band spectrum.

The Hilfer fractional derivative generalizes and interpolates between the commonly used Riemann-Liouville and Caputo fractional derivative. In general, solutions to Hilfer fractional derivative initial value problems are singular for t downarrow t_0, providing a challenge in numerical approximation. In this work, we present a Bernstein splines method to obtain accurate approximations to solutions of nonlinear Hilfer fractional derivative initial value problems, including solutions with singular behavior. We provide explicit convergence requirements and asymptotic convergence rates to analytical solutions. Moreover, the method is efficiently implemented, using a vectorized approach and parallelization in polynomial order. Numerical experiments show empirical convergence corresponding to analytical results and a significantly higher accuracy compared to the commonly used fractional Adams-Bashforth-Moulton predictor-corrector method. Furthermore, our method is able to simulate nonlinear systems with Hilfer fractional derivatives, as demonstrated by the application to the fractional Van der Pol oscillator.

By using ZEUS cluster at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University we perform extensive numerical simulations based on a two-dimensional Fourier spectral method Fourier spatial discretization and an explicit scheme for time differencing) to find the range of existence of the spatiotemporal solitons of the two-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation with cubic and quintic nonlinearities. We start from the parameters used by Akhmediev {\it et. al.} and slowly vary them one by one to determine the regimes where solitons exist as stable/unstable structures. We present eight classes of dissipative solitons from which six are known (stationary, pulsating, vortex spinning, filament, exploding, creeping) and two are novel (creeping-vortex propellers and spinning "bean-shaped" solitons). By running lengthy simulations for the different parameters of the equation, we find ranges of existence of stable structures (stationary, pulsating, circular vortex spinning, organized exploding), and unstable structures (elliptic vortex spinning that leads to filament, disorganized exploding, creeping). Moreover, by varying even the two initial conditions together with vorticity, we find a richer behavior in the form of creeping-vortex propellers, and spinning "bean-shaped" solitons. Each class differentiates from the other by distinctive features of their energy evolution, shape of initial conditions, as well as domain of existence of parameters.

We study a kinematical consequence of the Hopf-algebraic momentum composition law in κ-Minkowski spacetime. The same curved momentum space can be described in different coordinates. In the bicrossproduct basis the ordered-plane-wave labels are the translation-generator eigenvalues, so the relevant map is one-to-one. In the classical basis, instead, the translation eigenvalues P_μ are nonlinearly related to the ordered-plane-wave labels p_μ. This relation can fail to be globally one-to-one in a high-momentum region. When a given classical-basis four-momentum admits more than one real auxiliary preimage, the branch-sensitive quantity P_+equiv P_0+P_4=κe^{p_0/κ} enters the coproduct and resolves the branches in two-particle states. Imposing the vanishing total-momentum constraint therefore gives branch-dependent κ-deformed back-to-back momentum correlations. In a single-branch regime this is just a deformed correlated product, while in a multibranch regime a state specified only by P_μ can be expanded into distinct auxiliary branches. If P_μ are taken as the directly meaningful momenta, the physical content is the resulting deformed correlation pattern. If the auxiliary variables p_μ are assigned operational meaning, the same constrained state can be interpreted as a superposition over different auxiliary branches. We also compare this structure with standard regular self-adjoint nonrelativistic minimal-length models and find no analogous smooth local two-real-branch inversion on their physical domains.

We present a high-order boundary integral equation (BIE) method for the frequency-domain acoustic scattering of a point source by a singly-periodic, infinite, corrugated boundary. We apply it to the accurate numerical study of acoustic radiation in the neighborhood of a sound-hard two-dimensional staircase modeled after the El Castillo pyramid. Such staircases support trapped waves which travel along the surface and decay exponentially away from it. We use the array scanning method (Floquet--Bloch transform) to recover the scattered field as an integral over the family of quasiperiodic solutions parameterized by their on-surface wavenumber. Each such BIE solution requires the quasiperiodic Green's function, which we evaluate using an efficient integral representation of lattice sum coefficients. We avoid the singularities and branch cuts present in the array scanning integral by complex contour deformation. For each frequency, this enables a solution accurate to around 10 digits in a couple of seconds. We propose a residue method to extract the limiting powers carried by trapped modes far from the source. Finally, by computing the trapped mode dispersion relation, we use a simple ray model to explain an observed acoustic "raindrop" effect (chirp-like time-domain response).

Topical observations of the thermosphere at altitudes below 200 , km are of great benefit in advancing the understanding of the global distribution of mass, composition, and dynamical responses to geomagnetic forcing, and momentum transfer via waves. The perceived risks associated with such low altitude and short duration orbits has prohibited the launch of Discovery-class missions. Miniaturization of instruments such as mass spectrometers and advances in the nano-satellite technology, associated with relatively low cost of nano-satellite manufacturing and operation, open an avenue for performing low altitude missions. The time dependent coefficients of a second order non-homogeneous ODE which describes the motion have a double periodic shape. Hence, they will be approximated using Jacobi elliptic functions. Through a change of variables the original ODE will be converted into Hill's ODE for stability analysis using Floquet theory. We are interested in how changes in the coefficients of the ODE affect the stability of the solution. The expected result will be an allowable range of parameters for which the motion is dynamically stable. A possible extension of the application is a computational tool for the rapid evaluation of the stability of entry or re-entry vehicles in rarefied flow regimes and of satellites flying in relatively low orbits.

We modify the NN/QFT duality [1] to incorporate the layerwise permutation symmetry of the network, resulting in a (0!+!1)-dimensional lattice gauge theory, in which each layer of N neurons acts as an N-component lattice site, and the weight matrices play the role of gauge fields living on the links. In this framework, we compute the tree-level neuron-neuron propagator which describes the evolution of layer variance in the network, and develop the Feynman diagram machinery to compute interactions in the perturbative expansion in 1/N. In particular, we obtain a recursive expression for all corrections to the exact propagator at O(1), representing statistical fluctuations in the ensemble of networks, including infinitely-many loop diagrams mediating the interactions from previous layers. We also present a preliminary analysis of neuron scattering amplitudes that contribute order-by-order in 1/N, which provides a field-theoretic framework for studying higher-point correlations, and by extension information propagation, in deep networks. We remark on some interesting directions for future work at the intersection of neural networks and quantum field theory.

Studies show that the model-independent, fully non-perturbative covariant cosmographic approach is suitable for analyzing the local Universe (zlesssim 0.1). However, accurately characterizing large and inhomogeneous mass distributions requires the fourth-order term in the redshift expansion of the covariant luminosity distance d_L(z,n). We calculate the covariant snap parameter S and its spherical harmonic multipole moments using the matter expansion tensor and the evolution equations for lightray bundles. The fourth-order term adds 36 degrees of freedom, since the highest independent multipole of the snap is the 32-pole (dotriacontapole) (ell=5). Including this term helps to de-bias estimations of the covariant deceleration parameter. Given that observations suggest axially symmetric anisotropies in the Hubble diagram for z lesssim 0.1 and theory shows that only a subset of multipoles contributes to the signal, we demonstrate that only 12 degrees of freedom are needed for a model-independent description of the local universe. We use an analytical axisymmetric model of the local Universe, with data that matches the Zwicky Transient Facility survey, in order to provide a numerical example of the amplitude of the snap multipoles and to forecast precision.

A new method of analyzing grid, or aliasing, instabilities is described, in particle-in-cell (PIC) codes for plasma kinetic theory. It starts with a meshfree approach with N_{p} macroparticles, with N_{p}<infty. Linearization of these equations is done about a uniform density non-drifting equilibrium prescribed by macroparticles on a uniform lattice. Macroparticle positions perturbations are induced about this lattice. The resulting linear equations are analyzed for stability and dispersion relations. The linearized equations are then discretized on a grid of N_{g} points with N_{g} le N_{p}, in both momentum conserving (MCP) and energy conserving (ECP) formulations. For a cold stationary plasma, this leads a dynamical matrix. For ECP, the matrix is symmetric and positive definite (SPD) and immediately shows stability. For MCP, the dynamical matrix is neither symmetric nor positive definite, preventing immediate conclusions on stability. For both MCP and ECP and for a cold stationary plasma, the resulting matrix elements vary relative to the meshfree value, a result of aliasing. This deviation is periodic in the displacement of the particle lattice relative to the grid. In the MCP discretization, eigenvalues occur in complex conjugate pairs for general placement of the particle lattice relative to the grid. These conjugate pairs indicate nonnegative growth rates. The nature of the aliasing is studied and shown to be related to the trapezoidal rule error over the grid. The scaling of the linear growth rates with respect to N_{g} and especially with respect to N_{ppc} is studied. These analytical results are compared with PIC simulations and found to be in excellent agreement. The connection with a cold drifting beam is discussed briefly, specifically, grid-induced instabilities for both the MCP and ECP.

We determine the quadrupolar logarithmic tidal response of electrically charged Einstein-Euler-Heisenberg black holes from the coupled static odd-parity gravitational and electromagnetic equations. Although the second electromagnetic invariant vanishes on the electric background, its quadratic interaction contributes to the axial fluctuation equations. At first order in the Euler-Heisenberg coupling a, a direct asymptotic recursion gives the canonical running matrix C_{rm can}^{rm EH}=(9aQ^2/10)left(smallmatrix0&-Q-Q&Msmallmatrixright), defined as the coefficients multiplying the canonical source vector in the r^{-2}log(r_0/r) term. The resulting local coefficients retain the full dependence on the subextremal ratio Q{M} at this perturbative order. The two quartic invariants partially cancel in both nonzero channels, while the action-normalized fields make gravitoelectromagnetic reciprocity explicit. The local extremal limit of the running matrix reproduces the corresponding two-invariant effective-field-theory result after convention conversion. Allowing independent quartic couplings further shows that identical electric background geometries can have different axial running matrices and yields algebraic inverse relations within the specified two-operator model. The calculation determines local logarithmic running within minimally coupled quartic electrodynamics; the finite horizon-matched response requires an additional global matching calculation.

We present a non-perturbative framework for the quantum treatment of vibrational excitation in molecular systems driven by electric fields with arbitrary time dependence. For harmonic potentials with linear dipole coupling, the field-induced dynamics is exactly described by a displaced coherent state, whose evolution is completely determined by a complex phase-space coordinate. Closed-form expressions for this coordinate reveal a clear distinction between resonant and non-resonant regimes. The resulting vibrational populations follow a Poisson distribution determined by a dimensionless time-dependent phase-space displacement, for both resonant and non-resonant driving. Resonant driving results in an enhanced phase-space displacement, whereas finite detuning between the driving and vibrational frequencies leads to an exponential suppression of the phase-space displacement and vibrational excitation. While the approach reduces to the standard time-dependent perturbation theory in the weak-field limit, it remains valid in the strong-field regime, where perturbative treatments fail. Our results provide a transparent phase-space picture of vibrational control and enable non-perturbative state preparation in ultrafast spectroscopy.

We establish, in general terms, the conditions to be satisfied by a time-fractional approach formulation of the Poisson-Nernst-Planck model in order to guarantee that the total current across the sample be solenoidal, as required by the Maxwell equation. Only in this case the electric impedance of a cell can be determined as the ratio between the applied difference of potential and the current across the cell. We show that in the case of anomalous diffusion, the model predicts for the electric impedance of the cell a constant phase element behaviour in the low frequency region. In the parametric curve of the reactance versus the resistance, the slope coincides with the order of the fractional time derivative.

We show how to construct perturbative effective field theories for strong phase transitions, where the standard tools of high-temperature dimensional reduction fail. By identifying the relevant power counting relations for the couplings, masses and background fields, we construct a controlled perturbative expansion adapted to this regime. We find that the order parameter field remains light at the transition, so that there is a controlled derivative expansion, even though large external fields need to be resummed. The resulting effective field theories for strong phase transitions live in three dimensions and have nonpolynomial field dependence. Applying our framework to a two-scalar model, we verify renormalisation scale cancellation through next-to-next-to-leading order and find decreasing corrections to the latent heat as the perturbative order is increased. Extending to include fermions and gauge fields, we identify a broad class of models in which strong-transition thermodynamics are systematically improvable.

We study the inverse adjoint problem for a perturbative bosonic outgoing map. Within the polynomial bosonic canonical-commutation-relation (CCR) algebra, we prove a constructive integrability theorem: order-by-order preservation of the CCRs is sufficient to reconstruct recursively a formal self-adjoint generator whose exponential implements the outgoing map by adjoint conjugation. At each order, the Baker--Campbell--Hausdorff contribution determined by previously reconstructed generators is subtracted from the outgoing coefficient, and the remaining homogeneous CCR conditions determine the next generator explicitly. We apply the construction to graviton scattering in the null-surface formulation (NSF), specialized to the flat solution-space sector with Minkowski metric, null generators, affine parameter, and cone measure. The NSF outgoing map preserves the Ashtekar radiative CCRs through (δa_3), corresponding to order (\varepsilon^2). At this order, the scalar CCR sector uniquely selects the symmetric ordering (c=1) for the nontrivial interacting kernel. The associated linear contraction, generated by the same cubic kernel, cancels the double-contraction contribution from ([δa_2,δa_2^\dagger]). The theorem then reconstructs the self-adjoint generators (δT_1) and (δT_2), providing a formal perturbative unitary implementation. The resulting canonical organization also separates the direct (2\to2) contribution into irreducible-loop, one-particle-reducible, and factorized sectors.

In this manuscript we set up the direct and inverse scattering problems for step-like traveling-wave solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. Specifically, we consider initial data u(x,0) satisfying u(x,0)to u_0^ell(x) as xto-infty and u(x,0)to u_0^r(x) as xto+infty, where u_0^ell(x) and u_0^r(x) are elliptic traveling waves. Under suitable assumptions on the initial data we formulate the direct scattering problem and establish analytic properties of the scattering data. We then formulate the inverse problem as a Riemann--Hilbert problem and prove its solvability. Finally, we observe that this Riemann--Hilbert formulation is a special case of the one arising for full soliton-gas initial data.

This work presents a non-perturbative quantum field theoretic computation of spinor tunnelling through a potential barrier. Within position space potential formalism, we identify coupled recursion relations forming a self-consistent integral equation. Our method, enabling both analytical and numerical approaches, transforms into a formalism admitting both numerical framework for arbitrary potentials and analytical exact results for select barriers. For the rectangular barrier, the QFT-derived amplitudes reproduce the relativistic quantum mechanical (RQM) results, thus establishing a foundation for future calculation of beyond-RQM field-theoretic corrections.

In this paper, both the pointwise space-time structures of the solution for a three-dimensional model describing gas dynamics in thermal non-equilibrium and the corresponding background stabilities within the L^p framework are investigated under the small initial perturbation assumption and the irrotationality condition. Our main tools are the modified Green's function according to the irrotationality condition, a priori energy method and a refined decay estimates of products composed of the entropy function and high-order derivatives.

In this work, we generalize the reaction-diffusion equation in statistical physics, Schr\"odinger equation in quantum mechanics, Helmholtz equation in paraxial optics into the neural partial differential equations (NPDE), which can be considered as the fundamental equations in the field of artificial intelligence research. We take finite difference method to discretize NPDE for finding numerical solution, and the basic building blocks of deep neural network architecture, including multi-layer perceptron, convolutional neural network and recurrent neural networks, are generated. The learning strategies, such as Adaptive moment estimation, L-BFGS, pseudoinverse learning algorithms and partial differential equation constrained optimization, are also presented. We believe it is of significance that presented clear physical image of interpretable deep neural networks, which makes it be possible for applying to analog computing device design, and pave the road to physical artificial intelligence.

In this work, we study the black hole light echoes in terms of the two-photon autocorrelation and explore their connection with the quasinormal modes. It is shown that the above time-domain phenomenon can be analyzed by utilizing the well-known frequency-domain relations between the quasinormal modes and characteristic parameters of null geodesics. We found that the time-domain correlator, obtained by the inverse Fourier transform, naturally acquires the echo feature, which can be attributed to a collective effect of the asymptotic poles through a weighted summation of the squared modulus of the relevant Green's functions. Specifically, the contour integral leads to a summation taking over both the overtone index and angular momentum. Moreover, the dominant contributions to the light echoes are from those in the eikonal limit, consistent with the existing findings using the geometric-optics arguments. For the Schwarzschild black holes, we demonstrate the results numerically by considering a transient spherical light source. Also, for the Kerr spacetimes, we point out a potential difference between the resulting light echoes using the geometric-optics approach and those obtained by the black hole perturbation theory. Possible astrophysical implications of the present study are addressed.

Starting from the Mellin-Barnes integral representation of a Feynman integral depending on set of kinematic variables z_i, we derive a system of partial differential equations w.r.t.\ new variables x_j, which parameterize the differentiable constraints z_i=y_i(x_j). In our algorithm, the powers of propagators can be considered as arbitrary parameters. Our algorithm can also be used for the reduction of multiple hypergeometric sums to sums of lower dimension, finding special values and reduction equations of hypergeometric functions in a singular locus of continuous variables, or finding systems of partial differential equations for master integrals with arbitrary powers of propagators. As an illustration, we produce a differential equation of fourth order in one variable for the one-loop two-point Feynman diagram with two different masses and arbitrary propagator powers.
