On the simultaneous identification of scattering parameters for classical waves

Abstract: We prove uniqueness in inverse acoustic scattering in the case the density of the medium has an unbounded gradient across Σ⊂ΩΣ⊂Ω, where ΩΩ is a 3D-Lipschitz domain. The corresponding direct ...

Emergent dynamics for a model of quantum synchronization

Abstract: In this talk I will discuss a model (introduced by Lohe, J. Phys. A 2010) describing quantum synchronization. More specifically, this is a system of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations w...

Particle Creation at a Point Source by Means of Interior-Boundary Conditions

Abstract: We consider a way of defining quantum Hamiltonians involving particle creation and annihilation based on an interior-boundary condition (IBC) on the wave function, where the wave function is...

Hydrodynamic limits, weak solutions and thermodynamics

Abstract: I will present a way to derive, via hydrodynamic limits, weak solutions to the 1D isothermal Euler equations in Lagrangian coordinates. This is obtained from a microscopic anharmonic chain w...

A gradient flow approach for linear Boltzmann equations

Abstract: We introduce a gradient flow formulation of linear Boltzmann equations. Under a diffusive scaling we derive a diffusion equation by using the machinery of gradient flows. This is a joint wor...

Scudo magnetico per l'equazione di Vlasov-Poisson

Abstract: Riferirò su una ricerca che sto svolgendo con Silvia Caprino (Roma2) e Guido Cavallaro (questo dipartimento). Studiamo un modello matematico di protezione di una navicella spaziale da un ven...

Superfluidity and geometry of Bloch bands

Abstract: Band structure theory and the BCS theory of superconductivity are two cornerstones of modern condensed matter physics. They have been used to explain many properties of crystalline solids an...

The differential topology of semimetals

Abstract: The "Weyl fermion" was discovered in a topological semimetal in 2015. Its mathematical characterisation turns out to involve deep and subtle results in differential topology. I will outline ...

L^p-boundedness of wave operators for three dimensional Schrödinger operators with point interactions

Abstract: We show that wave operators for three dimensional Schroedinger operators with point interactions are bounded in LpLp for 1<p<31<p<3 but not for p=1p=1 or p≥3p≥3. This is a joint ...

The Ising model on random graphs

Abstract: Random graphs are useful models for complex networks appearing in empirical studies of networks. Several structural properties have been identified in this context, including scale-free and ...

From diffusion to fractional superdiffusion in a Hamiltonian lattice field model with noise

Abstract: We consider a Hamiltonian lattice field model perturbed by an energy conserving noise and show that after a space-time rescaling the energy-energy correlation function is given by the soluti...

Homogenization of a semilinear advection equation

Abstract: I will discuss the problem of homogenization for the Cauchy problem for a semilinear advection equation, where the drift coefficient is given by an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type stationary in time...
