ECM survey article discussing the structure of subsets of Abelian groups which behave `a bit like' cosets (of subgroups).
A gauge theory is associated with a principal bundle endowed with a connection permitting to define horizontal lifts of paths. The horizontal lifts of surfaces cannot be defined into a principal bundle structure. An higher gauge theory is…
We study the abelian sandpile growth model, where n particles are added at the origin on a stable background configuration in Z^d. Any site with at least 2d particles then topples by sending one particle to each neighbor. We find that with…
The main purpose of this paper is to give a topological and symplectic classification of completely integrable Hamiltonian systems in terms of characteristic classes and other local and global invariants.
For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…
This informal note provides some elementary examples to motivate the local structural results of [1] on the moduli space of genus one stable maps to projective space. The hope is that these examples will be helpful for graduate students to…
We show the existence of canonical heights of subvarieties for bounded sequences of morphisms and give some applications.
Four natural boundary statistics and two natural bulk statistics are considered for alternating sign matrices (ASMs). Specifically, these statistics are the positions of the 1's in the first and last rows and columns of an ASM, and the…
The difference between the Faltings height of an abelian variety $A$ defined over a number field $k$ and its stable height is measured by the so-called base change conductor. In this paper, we give a uniform bound of the base change…
The aim of this article is to compare two different definitions of level-structers of Drinfeld modules and to prove that they are equivalent.
The Abelian sandpile model is the simplest analytically tractable model of self-organized criticality. This paper presents a brief review of known results about the model. The abelian group structure allows an exact calculation of many of…
The purpose of this note is to establish an isomorphism from the vector space of extensions between two modules over a vertex algebra, to an appropriate first chiral homology of one dimensional projective space with coefficients in the…
Let $C$ be a smooth non rational projective curve over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$. If $A$ is an abelian subvariety of the Jacobian $J(C)$, we consider the Abel-Prym map $\varphi_A : C \rightarrow A$ defined as the composition of the…
The Sand Pile Model (SPM) and its generalization, the Ice Pile Model (IPM), originate from physics and have various applications in the description of the evolution of granular systems. In this article, we deal with the enumeration and the…
We investigate multiplicative groups consisting entirely of singular alternating sign matrices (ASMs), and present several constructions of such groups. It is shown that every finite group is isomorphic to a group of singular ASMs, with a…
In this paper we study the abelian sandpile model on the two-dimensional grid with uniform neighborhood, and prove that any family of neighborhoods defined as scalings of a continuous non-flat shape can ultimately perform crossing.
We define the Archimedean height pairing for fiberwise cohomologically trivial differential forms on a one-parameter degeneration of Riemann surfaces, and we study its asymptotic behavior. The proof relies on recent work by Dai--Yoshikawa…
The aim of this note is to use the concept of algebra husks to prove an analog of the flattening decomposition theorem for simultaneous normalizations. Other applications improve earlier flatness criteria. Parts of this note were contained…
The abelian sandpile model is a simple combinatorial model for critical behaviour which has the "abelian property" that the order in which we make moves does not change the final outcome of the game. This might seem to restrict the model's…
The main goal of the paper is to connect matrix polynomial biorthogonality on a contour in the plane with a suitable notion of scalar, multi-point Pad\'e approximation on an arbitrary Riemann surface endowed with a rational map to the…
