Abstract: In this talk I will describe some of the mathematical aspects of disordered topological insulators. These are novel materials which insulate in their bulk but (may) conduct along their edge;...
Abstract: The mere existence and the spectroscopic behavior of pyramidal molecules like ammonia have remained unsolved problems since the early developments of quantum mechanics. A possible solution c...
Abstract: In this talk we will review some recent results on the Fröhlich polaron, which is a model for a charged particle coupled to a polarizable medium. We will especially focus on a conjecture due...
Abstract: I will discuss the existence of turbulent solutions to a quantum hydrodynamic (QHD) system, with periodic boundary conditions. A suitable nonlinear change of variables (the Madelung transfor...
Abstract: For a uniform magnetic field, we provide a decomposition of operators commuting with the associated magnetic translations. As an application, we rewrite the energy per unit surface for an el...
Abstract:In this seminar I will present some of my research activities related to the rigorous analysis of a quantum particle confined in a bounded region of space. In the first part of the seminar I ...
Abstract: In this talk I will present some recent results on the Kirchhoff equation of nonlinear elasticity, describing transversal oscillations of strings and plates, with periodic boundary condition...
Abstract: I present some results concerning the number of critical points and the number of nodal domains of Steklov eigenfunctions. The results have been obtained in collaboration with Luca Battaglia...
Abstract: We present some results for Radon measure-valued solutions of first order scalar conservation laws. In particular we discuss the case in which the singular part of the initial datum is a sup...
Abstract: I will present a study on the asymptotic behavior of the volume preserving mean curvature and the Mullins-Sekerka flat flows in three dimensional space, for which we need to establish a ...
