A champagne subregion of a connected open set $U\ne\emptyset$ in $R^d$, $d\ge 2$, is obtained omitting pairwise disjoint closed balls $\bar B(x, r_x)$, $x\in X$, the bubbles, where $X$ is a locally finite set in $U$. The union $A$ of these…

Given a connected open set $U\ne\emptyset$ in $ R^d$, $d\ge 2$, a relatively closed set $A$ in $U$ is called \emph{unavoidable in $U$}, if Brownian motion, starting in $x\in U\setminus A$ and killed when leaving $U$, hits $A$ almost surely…

This paper concerns harmonic measure on the domains that arise when infinitely many disjoint closed discs are removed from the unit disc. It investigates which configurations of discs are unavoidable for Brownian motion, and obtains…

We study avoidability of collections of balls in bounded $C^{1,1}$ opens sets for censored $\alpha$-stable processes, $\alpha\in (1,2)$. The results are analog to the ones obtained for Brownian motion in S. J. Gardiner, M. Ghergu, Champagne…

We consider connectivity properties of the vacant set of (random) ensembles of Wiener sausages in $\mathbb R^d$ in the transient dimensions $d \geq 3$. We prove that the vacant set of Brownian interlacements contains at most one infinite…

Bubbles appear when a carbonated drink is poured in a glass. Very stable bubble chains are clearly observed in champagne, showing an almost straight line from microscopic nucleation sites from which they are continuously formed. In some…

We study gaugino condensation in presence of an anomalous $U(1)$ gauge group and find that global supersymmetry is dynamically broken. An example of particular interest is provided by effective string models with 4-dimensional Green-Schwarz…

Analytical solutions for both a finite assembly and a periodic array of bubbles steadily moving in a Hele-Shaw channel are presented. The particular case of multiple fingers penetrating into the channel and moving jointly with an assembly…

We study two problems concerning harmonic measure on "champagne subdomains" of the unit disk. These domains are obtained by removing from the unit disk little disks around sequences of points with a uniform distribution with respect to the…

This paper presents some partial answers to the following question. QUESTION. If a normal space X is the union of an increasing sequence of open sets U(1), U(2), U(3) ... such that each U(n) contracts to a point in X, must X be…

We first consider the additive Brownian motion process $(X(s_1,s_2),\ (s_1,s_2) \in \mathbb{R}^2)$ defined by $X(s_1,s_2) = Z_1(s_1) - Z_2 (s_2)$, where $Z_1$ and $Z_2 $ are two independent (two-sided) Brownian motions. We show that with…

The celebrated union-closed conjecture is concerned with the cardinalities of various subsets of the Boolean $d$-cube. The cardinality of such a set is equivalent, up to a constant, to its measure under the uniform distribution, so we can…

We study a system of two hardcore bosonic Hubbard models weakly coupled with each other by tunneling. Assuming that the single uncoupled model exhibits off-diagonal long-range order, we prove that the coupled system exhibits spontaneous…

We study the problem of when a Brownian motion in the unit ball has a positive probability of avoiding a countable collection of spherical obstacles. We give a necessary and sufficient integral condition for such a collection to be…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a quasiconvex Lipschitz domain and $A(x)$ be a $d \times d$ uniformly elliptic, symmetric matrix with Lipschitz coefficients. Assume a nontrivial $u$ solves $-\nabla \cdot (A(x) \nabla u) = 0$ in…

In his study of the Radon Nikod\'ym property of Banach spaces, Bourgain showed (among other things) that in any closed, bounded, convex set $A$ that is nondentable, one can find a separated, weakly closed bush. In this note, we prove a…

Let $u$ be a non-trivial harmonic function in a domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ which vanishes on an open set of the boundary. In a recent paper, we showed that if $D$ is a $C^1$-Dini domain, then within the open set the singular set of $u$,…

We investigate yet another approach to understand the limit behaviour of Brownian motion conditioned to stay within a tubular neighbourhood around a closed and connected submanifold of a Riemannian manifold. In this context, we identify a…

Let $X/\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a smooth, geometrically connected, quasiprojective variety. Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a semisimple overconvergent $F$-isocrystal on $X$. Suppose that irreducible summands $\mathcal{E}_i$ of $\mathcal E$ have rank 2,…

We construct steady non-spherical bubbles and drops, which are traveling wave solutions to the axisymmetric two-phase Euler equations with surface tension, whose inner phase is a bounded connected domain. The solutions have a uniform…
