We study the occurrence and nature of naked singularities for a dust model with non-zero cosmological constant in (n + 2)-dimensional Szekeres space-times (which possess no Killing vectors) for n ≥ 2. We find that central shell-focusing singularities may be locally naked in higher dimensions but depend sensitively on the choice of initial data. In fact, the nature of the initial density determi...

In many applications and in many fields, algorithms can considerably be speed up if the underlying arithmetical computations are considered carefully. In this article, we present a theoretical analysis of discrete affine transformations in higher dimension. More precisely, we investigate the arithmetical paving structure induced by the transformation to design fast algorithms.

The confinement induced resonance provides an indispensable tool for the realization of the low-dimensional strongly interacting quantum system. Here, we investigate the confinement induced resonance in spin-orbit coupled cold atoms with Raman coupling. We find that the quasi-bound levels induced by the spin-orbit coupling and Raman coupling result in the Feshbach-type resonances. For sufficien...

A survey of different representations for lattice sums for the Helmholtz equation is given. These sums arise naturally when dealing with wave scattering by periodic structures. One of the main objectives is to show how the various forms depend on the dimension d of the underlying space and the lattice dimension dΛ. Lattice sums are related to, and can be calculated from, the quasi-periodic Gree...

We show that quasi-Möbius maps preserve the Nagata dimension of metric spaces, generalizing a result of U. Lang and T. Schlichenmaier (Int. Math. Res. Not. 2005, no. 58, 3625–3655).

We classify quasi-simple finite groups of essential dimension 3.

We present results of quantum Monte Carlo simulations for the soft-core extended bosonic Hubbard model in one dimension exhibiting the presence of supersolid phases similar to those recently found in two dimensions. We find that in one and two dimensions, the insulator-supersolid transition has dynamic critical exponent z = 2 whereas the first order insulator-superfluid transition in two dimens...
