Eigenvectors of the Laplacian of a cycle graph exhibit the sinusoidal characteristics of the standard DFT basis, and signals defined on such graphs are amenable to linear shift invariant (LSI) operations. In this paper we propose to reduce…

Switching about a vertex in a digraph means to reverse the direction of every edge incident with that vertex. Bondy and Mercier introduced the problem of whether a digraph can be reconstructed up to isomorphism from the multiset of…

In [Mas82] and [Vee78] it was proved independently that almost every interval exchange transformation is uniquely ergodic. The Birkhoff ergodic theorem implies that these maps mainly have uniformly distributed orbits. This raises the…

We study the dynamics of a class of interval translation map on three intervals. We show that in this class the typical ITM is of finite type (reduce to an interval exchange transformation) and that the complement contains a Cantor set. We…

This work develops a nonlinear analogue of alternating projections on Hilbert space, based on iterating a weighted residual transformation that removes the portion of an operator detected by a projection after conjugation by its square…

The destruction of regular regions in two-dimensional, area-preserving maps is traditionally described in terms of the breakup of invariant curves and the persistence of transport barriers. Here, we investigate how this scenario changes…

Many popular network models rely on the assumption of (vertex) exchangeability, in which the distribution of the graph is invariant to relabelings of the vertices. However, the Aldous-Hoover theorem guarantees that these graphs are dense or…

Let $L$ be an alternating prime non-split link in $S^3$. We use the category of flypes between reduced alternating diagrams for $L$ to classify involutions on $L$. As consequences, we show that the quotient of an alternating periodic link…

A wide variety of biological as well as non-biological processes and phenomena involving ion channels, binding, pH, folding/unfolding and effects of chain length are well represented by multiphasic profiles, a series of straight lines…

A permutation graph is a graph whose edges are given by inversions of a permutation. We study the Abelian sandpile model (ASM) on such graphs. We exhibit a bijection between recurrent configurations of the ASM on permutation graphs and the…

We present a computational study of finite-time mixing of a line segment by cutting and shuffling. A family of one-dimensional interval exchange transformations is constructed as a model system in which to study these types of mixing…

An interval translation map (ITM) is a map $T \colon I \to I$ defined as a piecewise translation on a finite partition of an interval $I$ into $r \ge 2$ subintervals. Unlike classical interval exchange transformations (IETs), the images of…

We construct a complete invariant for non-wandering surface flows with finitely many singular points but without locally dense orbits. Precisely, we show that a flow $v$ with finitely many singular points on a compact connected surface $S$…

We study a broad class of high-dimensional mean-field exchange models, encompassing both noisy and singular dynamics, along with their dual processes. This includes a generalized version of the averaging process as well as some…

Possibly the first argument for the origin of the three observed gauge groups and thus for the origin of the three non-gravitational interactions is presented. The argument is based on a proposal for the final theory that models nature at…

The Riemann hierarchy is the simplest example of rank one, ($1$+$1$)-dimensional integrable system of nonlinear evolutionary PDEs. It corresponds to the dispersionless limit of the Korteweg-de Vries hierarchy. In the language of formal…

We consider the functional of total variation of maps from an interval into a Riemannian submanifold of $\mathbb R^N$. We define a notion of strong solution to the system of equations corresponding to the $L^2$-gradient flow of this…

Let $f$ be an orientation preserving homeomorphisms on the circle with several break points, that is, its derivative $Df$ has jump discontinuities at these points. We study Rauzy-Veech renormalizations of piecewise smooth circle…

We demonstrate that a large class of one-dimensional quantum and classical exchange models can be described by the same type of graphs, namely Cayley graphs of the permutation group. Their well-studied spectral properties allow us to derive…

For a generic deformation of a two-dimensional holomorphic vector field with elementary degenerate singular point (saddle-node) we express the Martinet - Ramis orbital analytic classification invariants of the nonperturbed field in terms of…
