A simple construction is presented, which generalises piecewise linear one-dimensional Markov maps to an arbitrary number of dimensions. The corresponding coupled map lattice, known as a simplicial mapping in the mathematical literature,…
A lattice path in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is a sequence $\nu_1,\nu_2,\ldots,\nu_k\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that the steps $\nu_i-\nu_{i-1}$ lie in a subset $\mathbf{S}$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for all $i=2,\ldots,k$. Let $T_{m,n}$ be the $m\times n$ table in…

When inclusions in a composite are separated by a very small gap, high contrast between the inclusion and matrix properties can induce strong amplification of the underlying field inside the narrow region. Quantifying this field…
The self- and mutual-avoiding walk used in conventional lattice models for polymeric systems requires that all lattice sites, polymer segments, and solvent molecules (unoccupied lattice sites) have the same volume. This incorrectly accounts…
We consider lattice walks in $\R^k$ confined to the region $0<x_1<x_2...<x_k$ with fixed (but arbitrary) starting and end points. The walks are required to be "reflectable", that is, we assume that the number of paths can be counted using…
The path integral of a quantum system with an exact symmetry can be written as a sum of functional integrals each giving the contribution from quantum states with definite symmetry properties. We propose a strategy to compute each of them,…

Condensates of active particles such as cells form almost-crystalline lattices which play a central role in many biological systems. Typically, their properties have been determined merely by analogy to the rather trivial one-dimensional…
Zonotopes are a rich and fascinating family of polytopes, with connections to many areas of mathematics. In this article we provide a brief survey of classical and recent results related to lattice zonotopes. Our emphasis is on connections…
Entwined space-time paths are bound pairs of trajectories which are traversed in opposite directions with respect to macroscopic time. In this paper we show that ensembles of entwined paths on a discrete space-time lattice are simply…

We investigate a lattice of coupled logistic maps where, in addition to the usual diffusive coupling, an advection term parameterized by an asymmetry in the coupling is introduced. The advection term induces periodic behavior on a…
Consider non-negative lattice paths ending at their maximum height, which will be called admissible paths. We show that the probability for a lattice path to be admissible is related to the Chebyshev polynomials of the first or second kind,…
