We identify a connection between the approximability of CSPs in two models: (i) sublinear space streaming algorithms, and (ii) the basic LP relaxation. We show that whenever the basic LP admits an integrality gap, there is an…

We study the topology of $SLE$ curves for $\kappa > 4$. More precisely, we show that, a.s., there is no homeomorphism $\Phi: \overline{\mathbb{H}} \rightarrow \overline{\mathbb{H}}$, taking the range of one independent $SLE$ curve to…

The accuracy of calculation of spectral line shapes in one-dimensional approximation is studied analytically in several limiting cases for arbitrary collision kernel and numerically in the rigid spheres model. It is shown that the deviation…

The lower limit to string coupling unification in weakly coupled heterotic strings was shown by Kaplunovsky to be around Lambda_H ~ 5 x 10^{17} GeV. In contrast, under the scenario of an intermediate scale desert, the SU(3)_C x SU(2)_L x…

We consider the dimer model on piecewise Temperleyan, simply connected domains, on families of graphs which include the square lattice as well as superposition graphs. We focus on the spanning tree $\mathcal{T}_\delta$ associated to this…

Through the rotational invariance of the 2-d critical bond percolation exploration path on the square lattice we express Smirnov's edge parafermionic observable as a sum of two new edge observables. With the help of these two new edge…

We find explicit formulas for the probabilities of general boundary visit events for planar loop-erased random walks, as well as connectivity events for branches in the uniform spanning tree. We show that both probabilities, when suitably…

We study the spectrum of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian and prove upper and lower bounds for its fractal dimension in the large coupling regime. These bounds show that as $\lambda \to \infty$, $\dim (\sigma(H_\lambda)) \cdot \log \lambda$…

We study the asymptotic distributions of the number of crossings and the number of simple chords in a random chord diagram. Using size-bias coupling and Stein's method, we obtain bounds on the Kolmogorov distance between the distribution of…

It is known that chiral fermions naturally appear at certain intersections of branes at angles. Motivated by this fact, we propose a string scenario in which different standard model gauge interactions propagate on different (intersecting)…

Random-scan Gibbs samplers possess a natural hierarchical structure. The structure connects Gibbs samplers targeting higher dimensional distributions to those targeting lower dimensional ones. This leads to a quasi-telescoping property of…

We propose a topological approach to the problem of determining a curve from its iterated integrals. In particular, we prove that a family of terms in the signature series of a two dimensional closed curve with finite p variation, 1\leq…

For any $0 < \alpha <1$, we construct Cantor sets on the parabola of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$ such that they are Salem sets and each associated measure $\nu$ satisfies the estimate $\|{\widehat{f d\nu}}\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^2)} \leq C_p…

As pointed out in previous studies, the measurement of the skewness of the convergence field $\kappa$ will be useful in breaking the degeneracy among the cosmological parameters constrained from weak lensing observations. The combination of…

We consider the chromatic number of the random Borsuk graph. The random Borsuk graph is obtained by sampling $n$ points i.i.d. uniformly at random on the $d$-dimensional sphere $S^d$, and joining a pair of points by an edge whenever their…

In the last few years, new insights have permitted unexpected progress in the study of fractal shapes in two dimensions. A new approach, called Schramm-Loewner evolution, or SLE, has arisen through analytic function theory and probability…

This paper is focused on two issues: the K\pi spectrum near threshold - the kappa problem -, and the pi\pi spectrum between 1.2 and 1.5 GeV/(c^2) -- the f_0(1370) problem. Both problems will be analysed from the perspective of the $D$ meson…

Denoting the Hausdorff dimension of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian with coupling $\lambda$ by $\mathrm{HD}_\lambda$, we prove that for all but countably many $\lambda$, the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum of the square Fibonacci Hamiltonian…

Inspired by regularization in quantum field theory, we study topological and metric properties of spaces in which a cut-off is introduced. We work in the framework of noncommutative geometry, and focus on Connes distance associated to a…

We use random matrix theory to study the spectrum of random geometric graphs, a fundamental model of spatial networks. Considering ensembles of random geometric graphs we look at short range correlations in the level spacings of the…
