We establish new bounds in the Bogolyubov-Ruzsa lemma, demonstrating that if A is a subset of a finite abelian group with density alpha, then 3A-3A contains a Bohr set of rank O(log^2 (2/alpha)) and radius Omega(log^{-2} (2/alpha)). The…
We define a new class of shift spaces which contains a number of classes of interest, like Sturmian shifts used in discrete geometry. We show that this class is closed under two natural transformations. The first one is called conjugacy and…
We study the problem of determining the minimum number $f(n,k,d)$ of affine subspaces of codimension $d$ that are required to cover all points of $\mathbb{F}_2^n\setminus \{\vec{0}\}$ at least $k$ times while covering the origin at most…
We extend standard path-integral techniques of bosonization and duality to the setting of noncommutative geometry. We start by constructing the bosonization prescription for a free Dirac fermion living in the noncommutative plane…
We develop a diffusion approximation for systems subject to fast random resetting by small amplitudes. Equivalently, this describes systems with frequent but small catastrophes. We demonstrate the validity of the approximation by computing…
The structure of the set of positivity-preserving maps between matrix algebras is notoriously difficult to describe. The notable exceptions are the results by St{\o}rmer and Woronowicz from 1960s and 1970s settling the low dimensional…
The crossover transition from weak coupling at large \xi to strong coupling at small \xi is studied in N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory with the U(N) gauge group and N_f>N (here \xi is the Fayet--Iliopoulos parameter). We find that at strong…
We note a link between combinatorial results of Bollob\'as and Leader concerning sumsets in the grid, the Brunn-Minkowski theorem and a result of Freiman and Bilu concerning the structure of sets of integers with small doubling. Our main…
Let n be an even positive integer and F be the field \GF(2). A word in F^n is called balanced if its Hamming weight is n/2. A subset C \subseteq F^n$ is called a balancing set if for every word y \in F^n there is a word x \in C such that y…
We analyze the effect of multitrace deformations in conformal field theories at leading order in a large N approximation. These theories admit a description in terms of a weakly coupled gravity dual. We show how the deformations can be…
We study large-N double-scaling limits of U(N) gauge theories in four dimensions. We focus on theories in a partially confining phase where an abelian subgroup $\hat{G}$ of the gauge group remains unconfined. Double-scaling is defined near…
We suggest the possibility that the two-dimensional SU(2)$_k$ Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) theory, which has global SO(4) symmetry, can be continued to $2+\epsilon$ dimensions by enlarging the symmetry to SO$(4+\epsilon)$. This is motivated by…
We study finite systems of subspaces of a complex Hilbert space such that each pair of subspaces satisfies a certain condition as described in the following. For each subspace excepting the first one an angle between this subspace and the…
We investigate matrix models in three dimensions where the global $\text{SU}(N)$ symmetry acts via the adjoint map. Analyzing their ground state which is homogeneous in space and can carry either a unique or multiple fixed charges, we show…
This is the second in a series of three notes on an investigation into core regular double Stone algebras, CRDSA, which are meant to be read in order. This note begins our investigation of duality for CRDSA through bi-topological spaces.…
Recently the space-time configurations of a set of non-threshold bound states, called the (F, Dp) bound states, have been constructed explicitly for every $p$ with $2 \le p \le 7$ in both type IIA (for $p$ even) and type IIB (for $p$ odd)…
Building on previous work on the critical behavior in gravitational collapse of the self-gravitating SU(2) $\sigma$-field and using high precision numerical methods we uncover a fine structure hidden in a narrow window of parameter space.…
Let $(G,+)$ be a finite abelian group. Then, $\so(G)$ and $\eta(G)$ denote the smallest integer $\ell$ such that each sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has a subsequence whose terms sum to $0$ and whose length is equal to and at…
We study the role of categorical symmetries in constraining the renormalisation of couplings in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with Wess-Zumino term. A large class of these theories admit self-duality symmetries associated with…
The aim of this paper is to present a complete description of the structure of subsets S of an orderable group G satisfying |S^2| = 3|S|-2 and <S> is non-abelian.
