We consider the Schrödinger equation for the harmonic oscillator$i$$∂$_{$t$}$u$=$Hu$, where$H$=−Δ+|$x$|^{2}, with initial data in the Hermite–Sobolev space$H$^{−$s$/2}$L$^{2}(ℝ^{$n$}). We obtain smoothing and maximal estimates and apply these to perturbations of the equation and almost everywhere convergence problems.

The notion of mixed quermassintegrals in the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory is extended to that of Orlicz mixed quermassintegrals in the Orlicz Brunn-Minkowski theory. The analogs of the classical Cauchy- Kubota formula, the Minkowski isoperimetric inequality and the Brunn-Minkowski inequality are established for this new Orlicz mixed quermassintegrals.

We prove that the rotation in time T of a trajectory of a K-Lipschitz vector ¯eld in Rn around a given point (stationary or non-stationary) is bounded by A + BKT with A;B absolute constants. In particular, trajectories of a Lipschitz vector ¯eld in ¯nite time cannot have an in¯nite rotation around a given point (while trajectories of a C1 vector ¯eld may have an in¯- nite rotation around a straight line in ¯nite time). The bound above extends to the mutual rotation of two trajectories (for the time intervals T and T0, respectively) of a K-Lipschitz vector ¯eld in R3: this rotation is bounded from above by the quantity CK min(T; T0) + DK2TT0.

Fourier spectral methods achieve exponential accuracy both on the approximation level and for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), if the solution is analytic. If the solution is discontinuous but piecewise analytic up to the discontinuities, Fourier spectral methods produce poor pointwise accuracy, but still maintains exponential accuracy after post-processing. In earlier work, an extended technique is provided to recover exponential accuracy for functions which have end-point singularities, from the knowledge of point values on standard collocation points. In this paper, we develop a technique to recover exponential accuracy from the first $N$ Fourier coefficients of functions which are analytic in the open interval but have unbounded derivative singularities at end points. With this post-processing method, we are able to obtain exponential accuracy of spectral methods applied to linear transport equations involving such functions.
