Bechtel, S. (author)We show L<sup>p</sup>-estimates for square roots of second order complex elliptic systems L in divergence form on open sets in R<sup>d</sup> subject to mixed boundary conditions. The underlying set is supposed to be locally uniform near the Neumann boundary part, and the Dirichlet boundary part is Ahlfors–David regular. The lower endpoint for...journal article 2024

Cipriani, A. (author), Salvi, Michele (author)Assign to each vertex of the one-dimensional torus i.i.d. weights with a heavy-tail of index τ−1>0. Connect then each couple of vertices with probability roughly proportional to the product of their weights and that decays polynomially with exponent α>0 in their distance. The resulting graph is called scale-free percolation. The goal of...journal article 2024

Speksnijder, Robert (author)Quantum random walks are the quantum analogs of classical random walks and appear to be promising tools to design fast quantum algorithms. Therefore it is important to study their time-related features and see how these differ compared to the classical case. For the discrete-time quantum walk on the line it has been shown that the probability to...bachelor thesis 2023
