We consider N-body problems with homogeneous potential $1/r^{2\kappa}$ where $\kappa\in(0,1)$, including the Newtonian case ($\kappa=1/2$). Given $R>0$ and $T>0$, we find a uniform upper bound for the minimal action of paths binding in time…

Let $A(x): =(A_{i, j}(x))$ be a continuous function defined on some subshift of $\Omega:= \{0,1, \cdots, m-1\}^\mathbb{N}$, taking $d\times d$ non-negative matrices as values and let $\nu$ be an ergodic $\sigma$-invariant measure on the…

It is shown that for a non-singular conservative shift on a topologically mixing Markov subshift with Doeblin Condition the only possible absolutely continuous shift-invariant measure is a Markov measure. Moreover, if it is not equivalent…

Strong bisimulation for labelled transition systems is one of the most fundamental equivalences in process algebra, and has been generalised to numerous classes of systems that exhibit richer transition behaviour. Nearly all of the ensuing…

Variational quantum algorithms are poised to have significant impact on high-dimensional optimization, with applications in classical combinatorics, quantum chemistry, and condensed matter. Nevertheless, the optimization landscape of these…

For strongly positively recurrent countable state Markov shifts, we bound the distance between an invariant measure and the measure of maximal entropy in terms of the difference of their entropies. This extends an earlier result for…
