When the electroweak action is rewritten in terms of SU(2) gauge invariant variables, the Higgs can be interpreted as a conformal metric factor. We show that asymptotic flatness of the metric is required to avoid a Gribov problem: without…

This paper concerns Gibbs measures $\nu$ for some nonlinear PDE over the $D$-torus ${\bf T}^D$. The Hamiltonian $H=\int_{{\bf T}^D} \Vert\nabla u\Vert^2 - \int_{{\bf T}^D} \vert u\vert^p$ has canonical equations with solutions in…

We establish large deviation principles (LDPs) for empirical measures associated with a sequence of Gibbs distributions on $n$-particle configurations, each of which is defined in terms of an inverse temperature $% \beta_n$ and an energy…

The adjoint method introduced in [Eva] and [Tra] is used, to construct analogs to the Aubry-Mather measures for non convex Hamiltonians. More precisely, a general construction of probability measures, that in the convex setting agree with…

In this article, we introduce a novel discrepancy called the maximum variance discrepancy for the purpose of measuring the difference between two distributions in Hilbert spaces that cannot be found via the maximum mean discrepancy. We also…

We upper- and lower-bound the optimal precision with which one can estimate an unknown Hamiltonian parameter via measurements of Gibbs thermal states with a known temperature. The bounds depend on the uncertainty in the Hamiltonian term…

Srinivas [Commun. Math. Phys. 71 (1980), 131-158] proposed a postulate in quantum mechanics that extends the von Neumann-Lueders collapse postulate to observables with continuous spectrum. His collapse postulate does not determine a unique…

I discuss the possible effects of a finite density of localised near-zero Dirac modes in the chiral limit of gauge theories with $N_f$ degenerate fermions. I focus in particular on the fate of the massless quasi-particle excitations…

We consider $(M,d)$ a connected and compact manifold and we denote by $\mathcal{B}_i$ the Bernoulli space $M^{\Z}$ of sequences represented by $$x=(... x_{-3},x_{-2},x_{-1},x_0,x_1,x_2,x_3,...),$$ where $x_i$ belongs to the space (alphabet)…

We study the observability of the Higgs mode in BEC-BCS crossover. The observability of Higgs mode is investigated by calculating the spectral weight functions of the amplitude fluctuation below the critical transition temperature. At zero…

This paper is devoted to the estimation of a vector parametrizing an energy function associated to some "Nearest-Neighbours" Gibbs point process, via the pseudo-likelihood method. We present some convergence results concerning this…

Le Cam's two-point testing method yields perhaps the simplest lower bound for estimating the mean of a distribution: roughly, if it is impossible to well-distinguish a distribution centered at $\mu$ from the same distribution centered at…

Let $E \subset \mathbb R^d$, $d \ge 2$, be compact, and let $\phi(x,y)$ be a smooth function satisfying the Phong--Stein rotational curvature condition on $\{\phi(x,y)=1\}$. We prove that if $\dim_{\mathcal H}(E)>1$, then $$…

We consider Gibbs distributions on the set of permutations of $\mathbb Z^d$ associated to the Hamiltonian $H(\sigma):=\sum_{x} V(\sigma(x)-x)$, where $\sigma$ is a permutation and $V:\mathbb Z^d\to\mathbb R$ is a strictly convex potential.…
