We define a class of quantum systems called regular quantum graphs. Although their dynamics is chaotic in the classical limit with positive topological entropy, the spectrum of regular quantum graphs is explicitly computable analytically…

Inspiralling and coalescing binary black holes are promising sources of gravitational radiation. The orbital motion and gravitational-wave emission of such system can be modelled using a variety of approximation schemes and numerical…

In this article we study domino tilings of a family of finite regions called Aztec diamonds. Every such tiling determines a partition of the Aztec diamond into five sub-regions; in the four outer sub-regions, every tile lines up with nearby…

N-body simulations of galactic collisions are employed to investigate the formation of elliptical rings in disk galaxies. The relative inclination between disk and dwarf galaxies is studied with a fine step of five degrees. It is confirmed…

Cosmological simulations have been used to study interacting galaxies as a function of galaxy pair separation, enabling comparisons with observational studies of galaxy pairs. The study of interacting galaxies as a function of time (i.e.…

As periodic orbit theory works badly on computing the observable averages of dynamical systems with intermittency, we propose a scheme to cooperate with cycle expansion and perturbation theory so that we can deal with intermittent systems…

Close pairs of galaxies have been broadly studied in the literature as a way to understand galaxy interactions and mergers. In observations they are usually defined by setting a maximum separation in the sky and in velocity along the line…

We develop a general theory for estimating the probability that a galaxy cluster of a given shape exists. The theory is based on the observed result that the distribution of galaxies is very close to quasi-equilibrium, in both its linear…

We theoretically study in detail the hydrodynamic coupling of two equal-sized colloidal spheres at low Reynolds numbers assuming the particles to be harmonically trapped with respect to both their positions and orientations. By taking into…

In this paper we describe a triple correspondence between graph limits, information theory and group theory. We put forward a new graph limit concept called log-convergence that is closely connected to dense graph limits but its main…

We develop a new framework for generalizing approximation algorithms from the structural graph algorithm literature so that they apply to graphs somewhat close to that class (a scenario we expect is common when working with real-world…

Ramsey theory looks for regularities in large objects. Model theory studies algebraic structures as models of theories. The structural Ramsey theory combines these two fields and is concerned with Ramsey-type questions about certain…
