We consider Gibbs distributions on permutations of a locally finite infinite set $X\subset\mathbb{R}$, where a permutation $\sigma$ of $X$ is assigned (formal) energy $\sum_{x\in X}V(\sigma(x)-x)$. This is motivated by Feynman's path…

Non-invertible one-form symmetries are naturally realized in (2+1)d topological quantum field theories. In this work, we consider the potential realization of such symmetries in (2+1)d conformal field theories, investigating whether gapless…
The dynamics of a spherically symmetric thin shell with arbitrary rest mass and surface tension interacting with a central black hole is studied. A careful investigation of all classical solutions reveals that the value of the radius of the…

When tetrad (metric) fields are not invertible, the standard canonical formulation of gravity cannot be adopted as it is. Here we develop a Hamiltonian theory of gravity for non-invertible tetrad. In contrast to Einstein gravity, this phase…
A permutation group $G\le\operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$ is said to be $2$-closed if no group $H$ such that $G<H\le\operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$ has the same orbits on $\Omega\times\Omega$ as $G$. A simple and efficient inductive criterion for…
We consider Hamilton-Jacobi equations in one space dimension with Hamiltonians of the form $H(p,x,\omega) = G(p) + \beta V(x,\omega)$, where $V(\cdot,\omega)$ is a stationary and ergodic potential of unit amplitude. The homogenization of…
This paper proposes to broaden the canonical formulation of quantum mechanics. Ordinarily, one imposes the condition $H^\dagger=H$ on the Hamiltonian, where $\dagger$ represents the mathematical operation of complex conjugation and matrix…
The Lagrangians and Hamiltonians of classical field theory require to comprise gauge fields in order to be form-invariant under local gauge transformations. These gauge fields have turned out to correctly describe pertaining elementary…
Non-Hermitian PT-symmetric quantum-mechanical Hamiltonians generally exhibit a phase transition that separates two parametric regions, (i) a region of unbroken PT symmetry in which the eigenvalues are all real, and (ii) a region of broken…
We study a possibly integrable model of abelian gauge fields on a two-dimensional surface M, with volume form mu. It has the same phase space as ideal hydrodynamics, a coadjoint orbit of the volume-preserving diffeomorphism group of M,…
We study the effect of hedgehog suppression in the O(3) sigma model in D=2+1. We show via Monte Carlo simulations that the sigma model can be disordered while effectively forbidding these point topological defects. The resulting…
