This paper considers a restriction to non-negative matrix factorization in which at least one matrix factor is stochastic. That is, the elements of the matrix factors are non-negative and the columns of one matrix factor sum to 1. This…

We construct a scattering theory for harmonic one-forms on Riemann surfaces, obtained from boundary value problems involving systems of curves and the jump problem. We obtain an explicit expression for the scattering matrix in terms of…

In this paper we discuss the scattering S-matrix of non-critical N=2 string at tree level. First we consider the \hat{c}<1 string defined by combining the N=2 time-like linear dilaton SCFT with the N=2 Liouville theory. We compute three…

Using the Sklyanin-Kharchev-Lebedev method of Separation of Variables adapted to the cyclic Baxter--Bazhanov--Stroganov or $\tau^{(2)}$-model, we derive factorized formulae for general finite-size Ising model spin matrix elements, proving a…

We present a generalization of Luescher's relation between the finite-volume spectrum and scattering amplitudes to the case of three particles. We consider a relativistic scalar field theory in which the couplings are arbitrary aside from a…

We present a solution method for the inverse scattering problem for integrable two-dimensional relativistic quantum field theories, specified in terms of a given massive single particle spectrum and a factorizing S-matrix. An arbitrary…

This is a combined write-up for two talks which were given consecutively and which described different aspects of the same topic. We present a generalization of L\"uscher's relation between the finite-volume spectrum and S-matrix to three…

We formulate a new quantization principle for perturbative quantum field theory, based on a minimally non time-ordered product, and show that it gives the theories of physical particles and purely virtual particles. Given a classical…

We calculate all the elements of the Mueller matrix, which contains all the polarization properties of light scattered from a two-dimensional randomly rough lossy metal surface. The calculations are carried out for arbitrary angles of…

We study possible factorizations of supersymmetric (SUSY) transformations in the one-dimensional quantum mechanics into chains of elementary Darboux transformations with nonsingular coefficients. A classification of irreducible (almost)…

The non-relativistic scattering of a spin-1/2 particle off a self-dual monopole reduces, for large distances, to the dyon problem, studied previously by D'Hoker and Vinet. The S matrix (calculated by Zwanziger's algebraic method based on…

We show that any nonsingular (real or complex) square matrix can be factorized into a product of at most three normal matrices, one of which is unitary, another selfadjoint with eigenvalues in the open right half-plane, and the third one is…

We study the matrix factorization problem associated with an SO(2) spinning top by using the algebro-geometric approach. We derive the explicit expressions in terms of Riemann theta functions and discus some related problems including a…

We derive the (matrix-valued) Feynman rules of the mass perturbation theory and use it for the resummation of the $n$-point functions with the help of the Dyson-Schwinger equations. We use these results for a short review of the complete…

Motivated by the symmetric version of matrix multiplication we study the plethysm $S^k(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$ of the adjoint representation $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ of the Lie group $SL_n$. In particular, we describe the decomposition of this…

The Faddeev-Reshetikhin model arises as a truncation of strings in AdS_5XS^5. Its two particle S-matrix should be obtained by diagonalizing its Hamiltonian. However this does not happen in a straightforward way. There is a Lorentz violating…

The bicategory $\mathcal{LG}$ of Landau-Ginzburg models has polynomials as objects and matrix factorisations as $1$-morphisms. The composition of these $1$-morphisms produces infinite rank matrix factorisations, which is a nuisance. In this…

We propose an algorithm for the application of the Laplace method for the calculation of the simplest Feynman diagram with a single loop in the scalar {\phi}^3 theory. The calculation of the contribution of such a diagram to the scattering…

We describe an explicit algorithm to factorize an even antisymmetric N^2 matrix into triangular and trivial factors. This allows for a straight forward computation of Pfaffians (including their signs) at the cost of N^3/3 flops.

Using non-relativistic effective field theory, we derive a three-particle analog of the Lellouch-L\"uscher formula at the leading order. This formula relates the three-particle decay amplitudes in a finite volume with their infinite-volume…
