This is a long introduction to the theory of "branch groups": groups acting on rooted trees which exhibit some self-similarity features in their lattice of subgroups.
The paper contains a new proof of the theorem by Krieger which establishes the canonicity of the future cover of a sofic shift. In addition the paper describes a method to produce new canonical covers from a given one, resulting in…
This is a brief review of my work on the correspondence between four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 1$ supersymmetric field theories realized by brane tilings and two-dimensional integrable lattice models. I explain how to construct integrable…
We develop a theory of modulus triples, for future motivic applications.
A perspective on charm physics, emphasizing recent developments, future prospects, and the interplay with lattice QCD.
I discuss why quintessential inflation model-building is more natural in the context of brane cosmology and study the dynamics of a particular model as an example.
We present algebraic and geometric arguments that give a complete classification of the rational normal scrolls that are hyperplane section of a given rational normal scrolls.
This PhD thesis explores and combines, through the lens of the holographic correspondence, two relevant topics in the field of gravitational high-energy theory: higher-derivative theories of gravity and brane-world models.
This talk is a sneak preview of the project, 'proof theory for theories of ordinals'. Background, aims, survey and furture works on the project are given. Subsystems of second order arithmetic are embedded in recursively large ordinals and…
The connection between the theory of permutation orbifolds, covering surfaces and uniformization is investigated, and the higher genus partition functions of an arbitrary permutation orbifold are expressed in terms of those of the original…
We prove a theorem of uppersemicontinuity for the metric entropy of meromorphic maps.
We briefly review a recently developed semiclassical theory for quantum oscillations in the spatial (particle and kinetic energy) densities of finite fermion systems and present some examples of its results. We then discuss the inclusion of…
In the first part of the paper we study orthogonality, domination, weight, regular and minimal types in the contexts of rosy and super-rosy theories. Then we try to develop analogous theory for arbitrary dependent theories.
Over the past few months, the theory of QCD at high density has been advanced considerably. It provides new perspectives on, and controlled realizations of, confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. Here I survey the recent developments,…
We produce a new, shorter construction of a minor-universal planar graph.
The current theory of twin crystallography is based on the concept of invariant plane. The present paper extends the theory to encompass the cases of heterotwins in which the composition plane is only quasi-invariant.
We complete the classification of half-supersymmetric branes in toroidally compactified IIA/IIB string theory in terms of representations of the T-duality group. As a by-product we derive a last wrapping rule for the space-filling branes.…
In the first part I set out some unexplored historical material about the early development of cosmic topology. In the second part I briefly comment new developments in the field since the Lachieze-Rey & Luminet report (1995), both from a…
We review recent developments in the theory of Thompson group representations related to knot theory.
I give a short overview of Chiral Perturbation Theory, its underlying assumptions and underpinnings. A few examples are included.
