We consider infinite random planar maps decorated by the critical Fortuin-Kasteleyn model with parameter $q>4$. The paper demonstrates that when appropriately rescaled, these maps converge in law to the infinite continuum random tree as…

We continue our study of the inventory accumulation introduced by Sheffield (2011), which encodes a random planar map decorated by a collection of loops sampled from the critical Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) model. We prove various \emph{local…

We establish the first scaling limit for FK($q$)-weighted planar maps in the critical case $q=4$, resolving a problem that has remained open since Sheffield's seminal work arXiv:1108.2241. In that work, Sheffield proved a scaling limit for…

We consider the abelian sandpile model and the uniform spanning unicycle on random planar maps. We show that the sandpile density converges to 5/2 as the maps get large. For the spanning unicycle, we show that the length and area of the…

Sheffield (2011) introduced an inventory accumulation model which encodes a random planar map decorated by a collection of loops sampled from the critical Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) model. He showed that a certain two-dimensional random walk…

We show that large critical multi-type Galton-Watson trees, when conditioned to be large, converge locally in distribution to an infinite tree which is analoguous to Kesten's infinite monotype Galton-Watson tree. This is proven when we…

We prove scaling limit results for the finite-volume version of the inventory accumulation model of Sheffield (2011), which encodes a random planar map decorated by a collection of loops sampled from the critical Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK)…

We introduce a new construction of the Uniform Infinite Planar Quadrangulation (UIPQ). Our approach is based on an extension of the Cori-Vauquelin-Schaeffer mapping in the context of infinite trees, in the spirit of previous work. However,…

We give alternate constructions of (i) the scaling limit of the uniform connected graphs with given fixed surplus, and (ii) the continuum random unicellular map (CRUM) of a given genus that start with a suitably tilted Brownian continuum…

The notion of `quantum family of maps' (QFM) has been defined by Piotr Soltan as a noncommutative analogue of `parameterized family of continuous maps' between locally compact spaces. A QFM between C*-algebras $B,A$, is given by a pair…

We begin by studying inventory accumulation at a LIFO (last-in-first-out) retailer with two products. In the simplest version, the following occur with equal probability at each time step: first product ordered, first product produced,…

We investigate two ways in which self-maps of an infinite set may be close to bijections; our investigation generates a $\mathbb{Z}$-valued index theory and a corresponding extension by $\mathbb{Z}$ for the quotient of the full symmetric…

Given a number field K, we consider families of critically separable rational maps of degree d over K possessing a certain fixed-point and multiplier structure. With suitable notions of isomorphism and good reduction between rational maps…

We show that for infinite planar unimodular random rooted maps, many global geometric and probabilistic properties are equivalent, and are determined by a natural, local notion of average curvature. This dichotomy includes properties…

For a random matrix of entries sampled independently from a fairly general distribution in Z we study the probability that the cokernel is isomorphic to a given finite abelian group, or when it is cyclic. This includes the probability that…

The permanent-determinant method and its generalization, the Hafnian-Pfaffian method, are methods to enumerate perfect matchings of plane graphs that was discovered by P. W. Kasteleyn. We present several new techniques and arguments related…

We present a probabilistic approach to the core-size in random maps, which yields straightforward and singularity analysis-free proofs of some results of Banderier, Flajolet, Schaeffer and Soria. The proof also yields convergence in…

We develop non-invertible Pesin theory for a new class of maps called cusp maps. These maps may have unbounded derivative, but nevertheless verify a property analogous to $C^{1+\epsilon}$. We do not require the critical points to verify a…

Let P be a Poisson process of intensity one in a square S_n of area n. For a fixed integer k, join every point of P to its k nearest neighbours, creating an undirected random geometric graph G_{n,k}. We prove that there exists a critical…

Let $L_n(k)$ denote the least common multiple of $k$ independent random integers uniformly chosen in $\{1,2,\ldots ,n\}$. In this note, using a purely probabilistic approach, we derive a criterion for the convergence in distribution as…
