We study the critical behavior of surface-interacting self-avoiding random walks on a class of truncated simplex lattices, which can be labeled by an integer $n\ge 3$. Using the exact renormalization group method we have been able to obtain…
We study the high-dimensional uniform prudent self-avoiding walk, which assigns equal probability to all nearest-neighbor self-avoiding paths of a fixed length that respect the prudent condition, namely, the path cannot take any step in the…
Understanding charge transport in strongly correlated systems remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics, particularly in light of the ubiquitous linear-in-$T$ resistivity observed in strange metals across many platforms from…
Walks in a directed graph can be given a partially ordered structure that extends to possibly unconnected objects, called hikes. Studying the incidence algebra on this poset reveals unsuspected relations between walks and self-avoiding…
We construct a continuous-time non-commutative random walk on $U(\mathfrak{gl}_N)$ with dilation maps $U(\mathfrak{gl}_N)\rightarrow L^2(U(N))^{\otimes\infty}$. This is an analog of a continuous-time non-commutative random walk on the group…
We consider a self-avoiding walk model (SAW) on the faces of the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. This walk can traverse the same face twice, but crosses any edge at most once. The weight of a walk is a product of local weights: each square…
To provide an understanding of the universal properties emerging from the empirical correlations and phase diagrams of cuprate superconductors, we invoke the scaling theory of finite temperature and quantum critical phenomena. The universal…
Using a matrix model, we model the deconfining phase transition at nonzero temperature for a SU(N) gauge theory at large $N$. At infinite $N$ the matrix model exhibits a Gross-Witten-Wadia transition. We show that as a consequence, both the…
The strongly correlated electron fluids in high temperature cuprate superconductors demonstrate an anomalous linear temperature ($T$) dependent resistivity behavior, which persists to a wide temperature range without exhibiting saturation.…
A two-offspring branching annihilating random walk model, with finite reaction rates, is studied in one-dimension. The model exhibits a transition from an active to an absorbing phase, expected to belong to the $DP2$ universality class…
We consider (random) walks in a multidimensional orthant. Using the idea of universality in probability theory, one can associate a unique polyhedral domain to any given walk model. We use this connection to prove two sets of new results.…
Order parameter fluctuations for the two dimensional Ising model in the region of the critical temperature are presented. A locus of temperatures T*(L) and of magnetic fields B*(L) are identified, for which the probability density function…
We present data of transport measurements through a metallic nanobridge exhibiting diffusive electron transport. A logarithmic temperature dependence and a zero-bias anomaly in the differential conductance are observed, independent of…
In this work, we develop a generalisation of the thermal entropy to complex inverse temperatures, which we call the thermal pseudo-entropy. We show that this quantity represents the pseudo-entropy of the transition matrix between…
Models of random walks are considered in which walkers are born at one location and die at all other locations with uniform death rate. Steady-state distributions of random walkers exhibit dimensionally dependent critical behavior as a…
Motivated by recent experiments on possible supersolid behavior of $^4$He solids at low temperature, we consider a model of superfluidity in a defected solid containing a system spaning network of correlated linear dislocations, or planar…
Let $M_n$ be an $n\times n$ real (resp. complex) Wigner matrix and $U_n\Lambda_n U_n^*$ be its spectral decomposition. Set $(y_1,y_2...,y_n)^T=U_n^*x$, where $x=(x_1,x_2,...,$ $x_n)^T$ is a real (resp. complex) unit vector. Under the…
We point out that existing numerical data on the correlation length and magnetic susceptibility suggest that the two dimensional $O(3)$ model with standard action has critical exponent $\eta=1/4$, which is inconsistent with asymptotic…
We exploit Krattenthaler's bijection between 123-avoiding permutations and Dyck paths to determine the Eulerian distribution over the set $S_n(123)$ of 123-avoiding permutations in $S_n$. In particular, we show that the descents of a…
In a recent article the most general non-uniform reaction-diffusion models on a one-dimensional lattice with boundaries were considered, for which the time evolution equations of correlation functions are closed and the stationary profile…
