We study a simple lattice model with local symmetry, whose construction is based on a crossed module of finite groups. Its dynamical degrees of freedom are associated both to links and faces of a four-dimensional lattice. In special limits…

Planar L-loop maximally helicity violating amplitudes in N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are believed to possess the remarkable property of satisfying iteration relations in L. We propose a simple new method for studying the…
We consider the variance of sums of arithmetic functions over random short intervals in the function field setting. Based on the analogy between factorizations of random elements of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ into primes and the factorizations of…

This paper presents a noncommutative theory of symmetric functions, based on the notion of quasi-determinant. We begin with a formal theory, corresponding to the case of symmetric functions in an infinite number of independent variables.…
We introduce a remarkable new family of norms on the space of $n \times n$ complex matrices. These norms arise from the combinatorial properties of symmetric functions, and their construction and validation involve probability theory,…
This paper is about a family of symmetric rational functions that form a one-parameter generalization of the classical Hall-Littlewood polynomials. We introduce two sets of (skew and non-skew) functions that are akin to P and Q…

For each positive integer k, we investigate the L-function attached to the k-th symmetric power of the F-crystal associated to the family of cubic exponential sums of x^3 + \lambda x. We explore its rationality, field of definition, degree,…
The Mullineux map is a combinatorial function on partitions which describes the effect of tensoring a simple module for the symmetric group in characteristic $p$ with the one-dimensional sign representation. It can also be interpreted as an…
The paper has two main goals. The first is to take a new approach to rearrangements on certain classes of measurable real-valued functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Rearrangements are maps that are monotonic (up to sets of measure zero) and…
We provide algorithms for computing a Lyapunov function for a class of systems where the state trajectories are constrained to evolve within a closed convex set. The dynamical systems that we consider comprise a differential equation which…
We provide a complete characterization of compactness of Sobolev embeddings of radially symmetric functions on the entire space $\mathbb{R}^n$ in the general framework of rearrangement-invariant function spaces. We avoid any unnecessary…

The ring of cyclic quasi-symmetric functions and its non-Escher subring are introduced in this paper. A natural basis consists of fundamental cyclic quasi-symmetric functions; for the non-Escher subring they arise as toric $P$-partition…
This habilitation thesis summarizes the research that I have carried out from 2005 to 2019. It is organized in four chapters. The first three deal with random planar maps. Chapter 1 is about their metric properties: from a general…
