We develop a thermodynamic formalism for quasi-multiplicative potentials on a countable symbolic space and apply these results to the dimension theory of infinitely generated self-affine sets. The first application is a generalisation of…

We consider an optimal control problem governed by a semilinear PDE in cases where the optimal control is of bang-bang type. By utilizing the theory of Bessel potential space, we characterize quadratic growth of the objective via a…

We describe how the Schoen-Yau proof of the positive mass theorem can be extended to arbitrary dimensions. To overcome the problem of singularities, we propose a new inductive scheme. To carry out the inductive step, we use a combination of…

We derive upper and lower bounds for the Assouad and lower dimensions of self-affine measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$ generated by diagonal matrices and satisfying suitable separation conditions. The upper and lower bounds always coincide for…

We study Langevin dynamics of $N$ particles on $R^d$ interacting through a singular repulsive potential, e.g.~the well-known Lennard-Jones type, and show that the system converges to the unique invariant Gibbs measure exponentially fast in…

Let E be a plane self-affine set defined by affine transformations with linear parts given by matrices with positive entries. We show that if mu is a Bernoulli measure on E with dim_H mu = dim_L mu, where dim_H and dim_L denote Hausdorff…

Under the assumption of a natural subadditive potential, the so called cylinder function, working on the symbol space we prove the existence of the ergodic invariant probability measure satisfying the equilibrium state. As an application we…

We quantify the pointwise doubling properties of self-similar measures using the notion of pointwise Assouad dimension. We show that all self-similar measures satisfying the open set condition are pointwise doubling in a set of full…

We show that in a typical sub-self-affine set, the Hausdorff and the Minkowski dimensions coincide and equal the zero of an appropriate topological pressure. This gives a partial positive answer to the question of Falconer. We also study…

We prove a ''dimension expansion'' version of the Elekes-R\'onyai theorem for trivariate real analytic functions: If $f$ is a trivariate real analytic function, then $f$ is either locally of the form $g(h(x)+k(y)+l(z))$, or the following is…

This paper is concerned with the maximisation of the k'th eigenvalue of the Laplacian amongst flat tori of unit volume in dimension d as k goes to infinity. We show that in any dimension maximisers exist for any given k, but that any…

Motivated by the ubiquity of control-affine systems in optimal control theory, we investigate the geometry of point-affine control systems with metric structures in dimensions two and three. We compute local isometric invariants for…

We study spectral properties of the self-affine measure $\mu_{M,\mathcal {D}}$ generated by an expanding integer matrix $M\in M_n(\mathbb{Z})$ and a consecutive collinear digit set $\mathcal {D}=\{0,1,\dots,q-1\}v$ where $v\in…

We investigate a formula of K. Falconer which describes the typical value of the generalised R\'enyi dimension, or generalised $q$-dimension, of a self-affine measure in terms of the linear components of the affinities. We show that in…

Let $\Phi:=\left\{ (x_{1},...,x_{d})\rightarrow\left(r_{i,1}x_{1}+a_{i,1},...,r_{i,d}x_{d}+a_{i,d}\right)\right\} _{i\in\Lambda}$ be an affine diagonal IFS on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. Suppose that for each $1\le j_{1}<j_{2}\le d$ there exists…

The main result of this article states that the (K;N)-cone over some metric measure space satisfies the reduced Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD^*(KN;N+1) if and only if the underlying space satisfies RCD^*(N-1;N). The proof…

We discuss the problem of unitarity for Yang-Mills theory in the Landau gauge with a mass term a la Stueckelberg. We assume that the theory (non-renormalizable) makes sense in some subtraction scheme (in particular the Slavnov-Taylor…
