Large fluctution for a non linear heat equation with noise
- William G. Faris, G. Jona-Lasinio
- Mathematics
- 1 October 1982
Studies a nonlinear heat equation in a finite interval of space subject to a white noise forcing term. The equation without the forcing term exhibits several equilibrium configurations, two of which…
Philosophy of Mathematics : An Introduction to the World of Proofs and Pictures
- William G. Faris
- Philosophy
- 2000
This example indicates that there is more than one way to look at the role of pictures in proof. The weakest claim is that a picture can serve as an aid to inspire a proof. The mathematician…
Commutators and self-adjointness of Hamiltonian operators
- William G. Faris, R. Lavine
- Mathematics
- 1 March 1974
A time dependent approach to self-adjointness is presented and it is applied to quantum mechanical Hamiltonians which are not semi-bounded. Sufficient conditions are given for self-adjointness of…
Inequalities and uncertainty principles
- William G. Faris
- Mathematics
- 1 February 1978
Sobolev inequalities give lower bounds for quantum mechanical Hamiltonians. These inequalities are derived from commutator inequalities related to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
Invariant cones and uniqueness of the ground state for fermion systems
- William G. Faris
- Mathematics
- 1 August 1972
A perturbation theory is developed for self‐adjoint operators whose resolvents leave a cone invariant. The Perron‐Frobenius theory may be applied to the perturbed operator to conclude that its lowest…
Weak Lebesgue spaces and quantum mechanical binding

Diffusion, quantum theory, and radically elementary mathematics
- William G. Faris
- Physics
- 31 January 2006
Diffusive motion--displacement due to the cumulative effect of irregular fluctuations--has been a fundamental concept in mathematics and physics since Einstein's work on Brownian motion. It is also…
