Notes of the lectures delivered in Les Houches during the Summer School on Complex Systems (July 2006).
We present structural properties of two-dimensional polymers as far as they can be described by percolation theory. The percolation threshold, critical exponents and fractal dimensions of clusters are determined by computer simulation and…
This paper surveys a few aspects of the global theory of wave equations. This material is structured around the contents of a minicourse given by the second author during the CMI/ETH Summer School on evolution equations during the Summer of…
We study a process termed "agglomerative percolation" (AP) in two dimensions. Instead of adding sites or bonds at random, in AP randomly chosen clusters are linked to all their neighbors. As a result the growth process involves a diverging…
These are notes from the 2003 C.I.M.E. summer school "symplectic 4-manifolds and algebraic surfaces". They cover the same material as the author's (by now ancient) Ph.D. thesis.
These lecture notes are written as reference material for the Advanced Course "Hydrodynamical Methods in Last Passage Percolation Models", given at the 28th Coloquio Brasileiro de Matematica at IMPA, Rio de Janeiro, July 2011.
These are the notes for an eponymous course given by the authors at the summer school on p-adic arithmetic geometry in Hangzhou.
These notes, associated with a topics course, deal with some special cases involving norms and linear transformations.
These expository notes are a somewhat embellished version of two rather informal evening review sessions given by the second author at the 2008 Bedlewo summer school on "Dynamical Systems - Geometric Structures and Rigidity"; they provide a…
These are notes related to a 12-hour course of lectures given at the Centre de Recerca Mathem\`atica near Barcelona in February, 2010. The aim of the course was to explain results on curves and their Jacobians over function fields, with…
The properties of the pure-site clusters of spin models, i.e. the clusters which are obtained by joining nearest-neighbour spins of the same sign, are here investigated. In the Ising model in two dimensions it is known that such clusters…
These are lecture notes for our minicourse at OIST Summer Graduate School "Analysis and Partial Differential Equations" on June 12-17, 2023. We give an overview and collect a few important results concerning the well-posedness of…
One of the most well-known classical results for site percolation on the square lattice is the equation p_c + p_c^* = 1. In words, this equation means that for all values different from p_c of the parameter p the following holds: Either…
This is a comprehensive report on the phase transition between two turbulent states of electroconvection in nematic liquid crystals, which was recently found by the authors to be in the directed percolation (DP) universality class [K. A.…
We experimentally investigate the critical behavior of a phase transition between two topologically different turbulent states of electrohydrodynamic convection in nematic liquid crystals. The statistical properties of the observed…
We consider oriented percolation on Z^d times Z_+ whose bond-occupation probability is pD(...), where p is the percolation parameter and D is a probability distribution on Z^d. Suppose that D(x) decays as |x|^{-d-\alpha} for some \alpha>0.…
Lecture notes delivered in Barcellona in the fall of 2003
This article is a draft of a book chapter of the book entitled "Quantum Percolation and Breakdown", to appear 2008.
These are the lecture notes for the introductory graduate course I taught at Yale during Spring 2007. I mostly followed [GS], [BGV], [AB], [Par2], and there are no original results in these notes.
The first two lectures are devoted to describing the basic concepts of scattering theory in a very compressed way. A detailed presentation of the abstract part can be found in \cite{I} and numerous applications in \cite{RS} and \cite{Y2}.…
