We investigate analogues of some of the classical results in homogeneous dynamics in non-linear setting. Let $G$ be a closed subgroup of the group of automorphisms of a biregular tree and $\Gamma<G$ a discrete subgroup. For a large class of…
We construct a point set in the Euclidean plane that elucidates the relationship between the fine-scale statistics of the fractional parts of $\sqrt n$ and directional statistics for a shifted lattice. We show that the randomly rotated, and…
We study a coupling flow of pure QCD gauge system by using the Monte Carlo Renormalization Group method. A rough location of the renormalized trajectory in two coupling space is obtained. Also we compare 4 different actions; (a)standard…
In this paper we prove the connectedness of symplectic ball packings in the complement of a spherical Lagrangian, S^2 or RP^2, in symplectic manifolds that are rational or ruled. Via a symplectic cutting construction this is a natural…
Some aspects of phase transitions can be more conveniently studied in the orbit space of the action of the symmetry group. After a brief review of the fundamental ideas of this approach, I shall concentrate on the mathematical aspect and…
We study the entropy of a set of identical hard objects, of general shape, with each object pivoted on the vertices of a d-dimensional regular lattice of lattice spacing a, but can have arbitrary orientations. When the pivoting point is…
Let $\Lambda$ be a lattice in $\R^n$, and let $Z\subseteq \R^{m+n}$ be a definable family in an o-minimal structure over $\R$. We give sharp estimates for the number of lattice points in the fibers $Z_T={x\in \R^n: (T,x)\in Z}$. Along the…
We explain how spectrally stable vortices of the Nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equation in the plane can be orbitally unstable. This relates to the nonlinear Fermi golden rule, a mechanism which exploits the nonlinear interaction between discrete…
In this paper we study perturbations of constant cocycles for actions of higher rank semi-simple algebraic groups and their lattices. Roughly speaking, for ergodic actions, Zimmer's cocycle superrigidity theorems implies that the perturbed…
We study groups of C^1 orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the plane, and pursue analogies between such groups and circularly-orderable groups. We show that every such group with a bounded orbit is circularly-orderable, and show that…
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet series that enumerates proper equivalence classes of full-rank sublattices of a given quadratic lattice in a hyperbolic plane -- that is, a nondegenerate isotropic quadratic space of dimension $2$. We…
A lattice is called well-rounded if its minimal vectors span the corresponding Euclidean space. In this paper we completely describe well-rounded full-rank sublattices of ${\mathbb Z}^2$, as well as their determinant and minima sets. We…
We discuss testing improved actions in the context of finite volume gauge theories, where both results for the continuum and the Wilson lattice action are known analytically for volumes up to 0.7 fermi across. A new improved action is…
Let $A_{\varphi}$ denote the matrix of rotation with angle $\varphi$ of the Euclidean plane, FLOOR the function, which rounds a real point to the nearest lattice point down on the left and ROUND the function for rounding off a vector to the…
We obtain restrictions on units of even order in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of a finite group $G$ by studying their actions on the reductions modulo $4$ of lattices over the $2$-adic group ring $\mathbb{Z}_2G$. This improves the…
A new technique for constructing the relativistic wave equation for the two-body system composed of the spin-1/2 and spin-0 particles is proposed. The method is based on the extension of the SL(2,C) group to the Sp(4,C) one. The obtained…
This paper investigates a novel connection between reductions of companion matrices associated with a symmetric family of certain binomial ideals in the coordinate ring of affine n-space and permutation matrices. Specifically, for fixed…
The driven lattice gas (DLG) evolving at low temperature helps understanding the kinetics of pattern formation in unstable mixtures under anisotropic conditions. We here develop a simple theoretical description of kinetics in Monte Carlo…
A result by Ornstein and Weiss states that a free and measure-preserving action of an amenable group on a probability space yields a decomposition of the space in disjoint images, up to a small error, analogous to the one given by the…
The semiclassical description of the dynamics of wave packets in periodic potentials and subject to an applied force relies on the concepts of effective mass and anomalous transport. This picture is valid if the force changes slowly in time…
