These are lecture notes for a 4h mini-course held in Toulouse, May 9-12th, at the thematic school on "Quantum topology and geometry". The goal of these lectures is to (a) explain some incarnations, in the last ten years, of the idea of…
By extending the results in Bononi 2012, we provide here a complete alternative derivation of Turin Gaussian Noise (GN) model for dual-polarization dispersion uncompensated coherent optical links. This paper contains the lecture notes used…
These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…

Optimal transport has become part of the standard quantitative economics toolbox. It is the framework of choice to describe models of matching with transfers, but beyond that, it allows to: extend quantile regression; identify discrete…
We investigate multidimensional model for incompressible non-Newtonian fluids. Using method of energy estimates we prove the property of finite speed of propagations of the solution support for this problem. We find sharp bounds of the…
This text is based on a series of three expository lectures on a variety of topics related to "thin orbits," as delivered at Durham University's Easter School on "Dynamics and Analytic Number Theory" in April 2014. The first lecture reviews…
We have derived a variational principle that defines the nonequilibrium steady-state transport across a correlated impurity mimicking, e.g., a quantum dot coupled to biased leads. This variational principle has been specialized to a…
We present a perspective of simple models of nonequilibrium directed transport described in terms of a Langevin equation formalism. We consider a Brownian particle under various circumstances and driven by thermal (equilibrium) and…
In this paper we study the inhomogeneous incompressible Euler equations in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $n\geq3$. We obtain well-posedness and blow-up results in a new framework for inhomogeneous fluids, more precisely Besov-Herz…
We introduce a framework to consider transport problems for integer-valued random variables. We introduce weighting coefficients which allow us to characterize transport problems in a gradient flow setting, and form the basis of our…
We give an exposition of three geometric constructions of the irreducible representations of GL_n. In particular, we discuss Borel-Weil theory, the Ginzburg construction, and the geometric Satake construction. We also explain how to deduce…
These are lecture notes of a course taken in Leipzig 2023, spring semester. It deals with extremal combinatorics, algebraic methods and combinatorial geometry. These are not meant to be exhaustive, and do not contain many proofs that were…
There are well-established connections between combinatorial optimization, optimal transport theory and Hydrodynamics, through the linear assignment problem in combinatorics, the Monge-Kantorovich problem in optimal transport theory and the…
This is a non-standard paper, containing some problems, mainly in model theory, which I have, in various degrees, been interested in. Sometimes with a discussion on what I have to say; sometimes, of what makes them interesting to me,…
In this paper, we extend our study of mass transport in multicomponent isothermal fluids to the incompressible case. For a mixture, incompressibility is defined as the independence of average volume on pressure, and a weighted sum of the…

This note is about the spectral properties of transfer operators associated to smooth hyperbolic dynamics. In the first two sections (written in 2006), we state our new results relating such spectra with dynamical determinants, first…
In these lecture notes prepared for the 11th Taiwan Spring School, Taipei 1997}, and updated for the Saalburg summer school 1998, we review the solutions of O(N) or U(N) models in the large N limit and as 1/N expansions, in the case of…
