Timelike Liouville field theory (also known as imaginary Liouville theory or imaginary Gaussian multiplicative chaos) is expected to describe two-dimensional quantum gravity in a positive-curvature regime, but its path integral is not a…
The square tight-binding model in a magnetic field leads to the almost-Mathieu operator which, for rational fields, reduces to a $q\times q$ matrix depending on the components $\mu$, $\nu$ of the wave vector in the magnetic Brillouinzone.…
