For classical Brownian systems driven out of equilibrium we derive inhomogeneous two-time correlation functions from functional differentiation of the one-body density and current with respect to external fields. In order to allow for…
Liouville conformal field theory is a prototypical example of an exactly solvable quantum field theory, in the sense that the correlation functions in an arbitrary background can be determined exactly using only the constraints of unitarity…

We study, using Monte Carlo simulations, the cavity and the bridge functions of various hard sphere fluids: one component system, equimolar additive and non additive binary mixtures. In particular, we numerically check the assumption of…
We study nonequilibrium evolution in a self-interacting quantum field theory invariant under space translation only by using a canonical approach based on the recently developed Liouville-von Neumann formalism. The method is first used to…
Given a fine-scale physical theory characterized by an evolutionary system of equations and a set of quantities, defined from the variables of the fine theory, that serve as a coarse representation of the fine scale phenomena, a systematic…

Correlation functions in Liouville theory are meromorphic functions of the Liouville momenta, as is shown explicitly by the DOZZ formula for the three-point function on the sphere. In a certain physical region, where a real classical…
I set the stage for discussion of the stellar populations in interacting galaxies by looking back over the slow development of our understanding of these systems. From early anecdotal collections, to systematic cataloging, and finally to…
The main result of this paper is a proof of the continuity of a family of integral functionals defined on the space of functions of bounded variation with respect to a topology under which smooth functions are dense. These functionals occur…
Dynamical linked cluster expansions are linked cluster expansions with hopping parameter terms endowed with their own dynamics. This amounts to a generalization from 2-point to point-link-point interactions. We develop an associated graph…
This paper is devoted to the problem of the description of nonequilibrium correlations in quantum many-particle systems. The nonlinear quantum BBGKY hierarchy for marginal correlation operators is rigorously derived from the von Neumann…

We studied the evolution of the gas kinematics of galaxies by performing hydrodynamical simulations in a cosmological scenario. We paid special attention to the origin of the scatter of the Tully-Fisher relation and the features which could…
Studying coupling between different galactic components is a challenging problem in galactic dynamics. Using basis function expansions (BFEs) and multichannel singular spectrum analysis (mSSA) as a means of dynamical data mining, we…
We outline a new method of construction of global-in-time weak solutions of the Liouville equation - and also of the associated BBGKY hierarchy - corresponding to the hard sphere singular Hamiltonian. Our method makes use only of geometric…
We investigate expansions for connectedness functions in the random connection model of continuum percolation in powers of the intensity. Precisely, we study the pair-connectedness and the direct-connectedness functions, related to each…
The Stochastic Loewner evolution is a recent tool in the study of two-dimensional critical systems. We extend this approach to the case of critical systems with continuous symmetries, such as SU(2) Wess-Zumino-Witten models, where domain…
Boltzmann's equation provides a microscopic model for the evolution of dilute classical gases. A fundamental problem in mathematical physics is to rigorously derive Boltzmann's equation starting from Newton's laws. In the 1970s, Oscar…
