 On the Dispersive Estimate for the Dirichlet SchrÃ¶dinger Propagator and Applications to Energy Critical NLS We consider the obstacle problem for the SchrÃ¶dinger evolution in the exterior of the unit ball with Dirichlet boundary condition. Under the radial symmetry we compute explicitly the fundamental solution for the linear Dirichlet SchrÃ¶dinger propagator $e^{it\Delta_D}$ and give a robust algorithm to prove sharp $L^1 \rightarrow L^{\infty}$ dispersive estimates. We showcase the analysis in dimensions $n=5,7$. As an application, we obtain global well-posedness and scattering for defocusing energy-critical NLS on $\Omega=\mathbb{R}^n\backslash \overline{B(0,1)}$ with Dirichlet boundary condition and radial data in these dimensions. Keywords:Dirichlet SchrÃ¶dinger propagator, dispersive estimate, Dirichlet boundary condition, scattering theory, energy criticalCategories:35P25, 35Q55, 47J35

 Generalized KÃ¤hler--Einstein Metrics and Energy Functionals In this paper, we consider a generalized KÃ¤hler-Einstein equation on KÃ¤hler manifold $M$. Using the twisted $\mathcal K$-energy introduced by Song and Tian, we show that the existence of generalized KÃ¤hler-Einstein metrics with semi-positive twisting $(1, 1)$-form $\theta$ is also closely related to the properness of the twisted $\mathcal K$-energy functional. Under the condition that the twisting form $\theta$ is strictly positive at a point or $M$ admits no nontrivial Hamiltonian holomorphic vector field, we prove that the existence of generalized KÃ¤hler-Einstein metric implies a Moser-Trudinger type inequality.

 Lower Order Terms of the Discrete Minimal Riesz Energy on Smooth Closed Curves We consider the problem of minimizing the energy of $N$ points repelling each other on curves in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the potential $|x-y|^{-s}$, $s\geq 1$, where $|\, \cdot\, |$ is the Euclidean norm. For a sufficiently smooth, simple, closed, regular curve, we find the next order term in the asymptotics of the minimal $s$-energy. On our way, we also prove that at least for $s\geq 2$, the minimal pairwise distance in optimal configurations asymptotically equals $L/N$, $N\to\infty$, where $L$ is the length of the curve.

 Harmonic Coordinates on Fractals with Finitely Ramified Cell Structure We define sets with finitely ramified cell structure, which are generalizations of post-crit8cally finite self-similar sets introduced by Kigami and of fractafolds introduced by Strichartz. In general, we do not assume even local self-similarity, and allow countably many cells connected at each junction point. In particular, we consider post-critically infinite fractals. We prove that if Kigami's resistance form satisfies certain assumptions, then there exists a weak Riemannian metric such that the energy can be expressed as the integral of the norm squared of a weak gradient with respect to an energy measure. Furthermore, we prove that if such a set can be homeomorphically represented in harmonic coordinates, then for smooth functions the weak gradient can be replaced by the usual gradient. We also prove a simple formula for the energy measure Laplacian in harmonic coordinates.

 Asymptotics for Minimal Discrete Riesz Energy on Curves in $\R^d$ We consider the $s$-energy $$E(\ZZ_n;s)=\sum_{i \neq j} K(\|z_{i,n}-z_{j,n}\|;s)$$ for point sets $\ZZ_n=\{ z_{k,n}:k=0,\dots,n\}$ on certain compact sets $\Ga$ in $\R^d$ having finite one-dimensional Hausdorff measure, where $$K(t;s)= \begin{cases} t^{-s} ,& \mbox{if } s>0, \\ -\ln t, & \mbox{if } s=0, \end{cases}$$ is the Riesz kernel. Asymptotics for the minimum $s$-energy and the distribution of minimizing sequences of points is studied. In particular, we prove that, for $s\geq 1$, the minimizing nodes for a rectifiable Jordan curve $\Ga$ distribute asymptotically uniformly with respect to arclength as $n\to\infty$.
