Relative free energy calculations are now widely used in academia and industry, but the accuracy is often limited by poor sampling of the complexes conformational ensemble. To address this, we have developed a novel method termed…
We consider generalized interval exchange transformations (GIETs) of d intervals ($d\geq 2$) which are linearizable, i.e. differentiably conjugated to standard interval exchange maps (IETs) via a diffeomorphism h of [0, 1] and study the…
This paper uses the theory of covering graphs to characterize some of the edge-transitive graphs which can arise as token graphs.
The topological index of a surface was previously introduced by the first author as the topological analogue of the index of an unstable minimal surface. Here we show that surfaces of arbitrarily high topological index exist.
We introduce and study dynamical probes of band structure topology in the post-quench time-evolution from mixed initial states of quantum many-body systems. Our construction generalizes the notion of dynamical quantum phase transitions…

For almost all interval exchange maps T_0, with combinatorics of genus g>=2, we construct affine interval exchange maps T which are semi-conjugate to T_0 and have a wandering interval.
We prove that for almost every irreducible interval exchange transformation $T$ and for any vector $\omega$ in its associated central-stable space (with respect to the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle) there exists a unique AIET, up to…
We study Markov multi-maps of the interval from the point of view of topological dynamics. Specifically, we investigate whether they have various properties, including topological transitivity, topological mixing, dense periodic points, and…
Porous materials exhibit vast structural diversity and support critical applications in gas storage, separations, and catalysis. However, predictive modeling remains challenging due to the multiscale nature of structure-property…
Let $T=(T_t^f)_{t\in \mathbb{R}}$ be a special flow built over an IET $T : T \to T$ of bounded type, under a roof function f with symmetric logarithmic singularities at a subset of discontinuities of T. We show that $T$ satisfies so-called…

Magnetism in topological materials creates phases exhibiting quantized transport phenomena with applications in spintronics and quantum information. The emergence of such phases relies on strong interaction between localized spins and…
We prove mixing on a general class of rank-one transformations containing all known examples of rank-one mixing, including staircase transformations and Ornstein's constructions, and a variety of new constructions.
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for suspension flows over certain families of shift spaces to be topologically mixing. We also show the similarities and differences between this case and the smooth measure theoretic setting…
We show the equivalence of two possible definitions of a rotational interval exchange transformation: by the first one, it is a first return map for a circle rotation onto a union of finite number of circle arcs, and by the second one, it…
Quantum substitutions of Pisot type (and their quantum topological entropy) are introduced. Their utility as algorithms for optimal spacing is analyzed.
Let $\pi$ be a non-degenerate permutation on at least $4$ symbols. We show that the set of uniquely ergodic interval exchange transformations with permutation $\pi$ is path-connected.
The recent discovery of topological insulator (TI) offers new opportunities for the development of thermoelectrics, because many TIs (like Bi$_2$Te$_3$) are excellent thermoelectric (TE) materials. In this review, we will first describe the…
We show how changes in unitarity-preserving boundary conditions allow continuous interpolation among the Hilbert spaces of quantum mechanics on topologically distinct manifolds. We present several examples, including a computation of…
