We use the method of similar operators to study a general Dirac operator $L$ and its spectral properties. We find a similar operator to the Dirac operator that is an orthogonal direct sum of simpler operators. The result is used to describe…

A generalization of the stochastic wave function method is presented which allows the unravelling of arbitrary linear quantum master equations which are not necessarily in Lindblad form and, moreover, the explicit treatment of memory…

We construct a two dimensional nonlinear $\sigma$-model that describes the Hamiltonian flow in the loop space of a classical dynamical system. This model is obtained by equivariantizing the standard N=1 supersymmetric nonlinear…

We develop a theory of multiple radial SLE(0) -- a smooth system of curves in a simply connected domain $\Omega$ with marked boundary points $z_1, \ldots, z_n \in \partial \Omega$ and a marked interior point $q$ -- arising as the…

In complex systems with fractal properties the scale invariance has an important rule to classify different statistical properties. In two dimensions the Loewner equation can classify all the fractal curves. Using the Weierstrass-Mandelbrot…

We consider stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by a fractional Brownian motion with a drift coefficient that is allowed to be arbitrarily close to criticality in a scaling sense. We develop a comprehensive solution theory that…

We develop a general theory of multiple chordal $\mathrm{SLE}(0)$ systems of type $(n, m)$ for positive integers $n$ and $m$ with $m \leq \lfloor n/2 \rfloor$, extending the construction of~\cite{ABKM20} beyond the previously studied case…

(Draft 3) A generalized differential operator on the real line is defined by means of a limiting process. These generalized derivatives include, as a special case, the classical derivative and current studies of fractional differential…

This manuscript explores the connections between a class of stochastic processes called "Stochastic Loewner Evolution" (SLE) and conformal field theory (CFT). First some important results are recalled which we utilise in the sequel, in…

Given a complex, simple Lie group $G$ of adjoint type, we introduce the notion of an Epstein-Poincar\'e surface associated to a $G$-oper. These surfaces generalize Epstein's classical construction for $G=PGL_2 (\mathbb{C})$. As an…

Schramm-Loewner Evolutions ($\SLE$) are random curves in planar simply connected domains; the massless (Euclidean) free field in such a domain is a random distribution. Both have conformal invariance properties in law. In the present…

In this paper we consider the It\^o SDE $$d X_t=d W_t+b(t,X_t)\,d t, \quad X_0=x\in {\mathbb R}^d,$$ where $W_t$ is a $d$-dimensional standard Wiener process and the drift coefficient $b:[0,T]\times{\mathbb R}^d\to{\mathbb R}^d$ belongs to…

In this paper we study the following stochastic differential equation (SDE) in ${\mathbb R}^d$: $$ \mathrm{d} X_t= \mathrm{d} Z_t + b(t, X_t)\mathrm{d} t, \quad X_0=x, $$ where $Z$ is a L\'evy process. We show that for a large class of…

We present a satisfactory definition of the important class of L\'evy processes indexed by a general collection of sets. We use a new definition for increment stationarity of set-indexed processes to obtain different characterizations of…

This paper reviews a class of univariate piecewise polynomial functions known as discrete splines, which share properties analogous to the better-known class of spline functions, but where continuity in derivatives is replaced by (a…

Many natural and engineered dynamical systems, including all living objects, exhibit signatures of what can be called spontaneous dynamical long-range order (DLRO). This order's omnipresence has long been recognized by the scientific…

Classical splines feature prominently in approximation theory and numerical analysis, while GKM theory arises in the study of equivariant cohomology. More recently, generalized splines have been studied which simultaneously generalize both…

The notion of the holomorph of a generalized Bol loop and generalized flexible-Bol loop are characterized. With the aid of two self-mappings on the holomorph of a loop, it is shown that: the loop is a generalized Bol loop if and only if its…

We introduce a process, that we call "shearing", which for any given normal Loewner chain produces a normal Loewner chain made of shears automorphisms. As an application, and in stringent contrast to the one-dimensional case, we prove the…

This paper studies high-dimensional curve time series with common stochastic trends. A dual functional factor model structure is adopted with a high-dimensional factor model for the observed curve time series and a low-dimensional factor…
