We establish a sharp lower bound on the spectral gap of the biased adjacent-transposition Markov chain on the symmetric group. As a consequence, we resolve a longstanding conjecture of Fill, proving that among all regular probability…

We show that previous correspondence between some (integrable) statistical field theory quantities and periods of $SU(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ deformed gauge theory still holds if we add $N_f=1,2$ flavours of matter. Moreover, the correspondence…

Given an arbitrary d>0 we construct a group G and a group ring element S in Z[G] such that the spectral measure mu of S has the property that mu((0,eps)) > C/|log(eps)|^(1+d) for small eps. In particular the Novikov-Shubin invariant of any…

We prove an analog of Aldous' spectral gap conjecture in the generalized symmetric groups $G\wr S_n$ where $G$ is an arbitrary finite group. Moreover, we show that Caputo's extension of the conjecture to hypergraphs transfers to these…

We present a proof of Rider's unpublished result that the union of two Sidon sets in the dual of a non-commutative compact group is Sidon, and that randomly Sidon sets are Sidon. Most likely this proof is essentially the one announced by…

We obtain an essential spectral gap for $n$-dimensional convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds with the dimension $\delta$ of the limit set close to $(n-1)/2$. The size of the gap is expressed using the additive energy of stereographic…

Fix $k \geq 6$. We prove that any large enough finite group $G$ contains $k$ elements which span quadratically many triples of the form $(a,b,ab) \in S \times G$, given any dense set $S \subseteq G \times G$. The quadratic bound is…

We prove a general duality theorem for tangle-like dense objects in combinatorial structures such as graphs and matroids. This paper continues, and assumes familiarity with, the theory developed in [6]

We propose a vector dark matter model from a hidden SU(2)_D gauge symmetry at TeV scale. A scalar septuplet is introduced to break the SU(2)_D symmetry spontaneously. The septuplet also play the role of a portal between the standard model…

S\'ark\"ozy proved that dense sets of integers contain two elements differing by a $k$th power. The bounds in quantitative versions of this theorem are rather weak compared to what is expected. We prove a version of S\'ark\"ozy's theorem…

We prove the density hypothesis for congruence subgroups of an irreducible uniform lattice in $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})^d$, extending previous results on the spherical density hypothesis to bound multiplicities of non-tempered…

We investigate singular perturbation problems caused by small delays in the view of pseudo-exponential dichotomy. For a general linear non-autonomous retarded differential equation with small delay, previous works established the existence…

This work provides a general spectral analysis of size-structured two-phase population models. Systematic functional analytic results are given. We deal first with the case of finite maximal size. We characterize the irreducibility of the…

For II$_1$ factors, we show that property (T) is equivalent to weak spectral gap in any inclusion into a larger tracial von Neumann algebra. We also show that not having non-zero almost central vectors in weakly mixing bimodules…

Let $X$ be a simplicial complex on $n$ vertices without missing faces of dimension larger than $d$. Let $L_{j}$ denote the $j$-Laplacian acting on real $j$-cochains of $X$ and let $\mu_{j}(X)$ denote its minimal eigenvalue. We study the…

In this paper we are interested in spectral decomposition of an unbounded operator with discrete spectrum. We show that if $A$ generates a polynomially bounded $n$-times integrated group whose spectrum set $\sigma(A)=\{i\lambda_k;…

In this brief paper we present some results on creating and manipulating spectral gaps for a (regular) quantum graph by inserting appropriate internal structures into its vertices. Complete proofs and extensions of the results are planned…

We study the semigroup of the symmetric $\alpha$-stable process in bounded domains in $\R^2$. We obtain a variational formula for the spectral gap, i.e. the difference between two first eigenvalues of the generator of this semigroup. This…

For all convex co-compact hyperbolic surfaces, we prove the existence of an essential spectral gap, that is a strip beyond the unitarity axis in which the Selberg zeta function has only finitely many zeroes. We make no assumption on the…

The First and Second Representation Theorem for sign-indefinite quadratic forms are extended. We include new cases of unbounded forms associated with operators that do not necessarily have a spectral gap around zero. The kernel of the…
