We study eigenfunction localization for higher dimensional cat maps, a popular model of quantum chaos. These maps are given by linear symplectic maps in ${\mathrm{Sp}}(2g,\mathbb Z)$, which we take to be ergodic. Under some natural…

We provide several equivalent characterizations of locally flat, $d$-Ahlfors regular, uniformly rectifiable sets $E$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density close to $1$ for any dimension $d \in \mathbb{N}$ with $1 \le d \le n-1$. In particular, we…
The energy landscape of multiverse cosmology is often modeled by a multi-dimensional random Gaussian potential. The physical predictions of such models crucially depend on the eigenvalue distribution of the Hessian matrix at potential…
This paper studies the growth of local extrema of Laplacian eigenfunctions on post-critically finite (p.c.f.) fractals. We establish the sharp two-sided estimate $\#\mathrm{Extr}(u_\lambda)\asymp\lambda^{d_S/2}$ for the Sierpinski gasket,…

It is a folklore result in arithmetic quantum chaos that quantum unique ergodicity on the modular surface with an effective rate of convergence follows from subconvex bounds for certain triple product $L$-functions. The physical space…
In the epsilon-regime of QCD the main features of the spectrum of the low-lying eigenvalues of the (euclidean) Dirac operator are expected to be described by a certain universality class of random matrix models. In particular, the latter…
In this paper we study spherical equidistribution on the space of (translates of) adelic lattices, which we apply to understand the fine-scale statistics of the directions in the set of shifted primitive lattice points. We also apply our…
In this paper, we continue the study of eigenfunctions on triangles initiated by the first author in \cite{Chr-tri} and \cite{Chr-simp}. The Neumann data of Dirichlet eigenfunctions on triangles enjoys an equidistribution law, being…
We consider the optimization problem of maximizing the $k$-th Laplacian eigenvalue, $\lambda_{k}$, over flat $d$-dimensional tori of fixed volume. For $k=1$, this problem is equivalent to the densest lattice sphere packing problem. For…
We investigate the asymptotic spectral distribution of the twisted Laplacian associated with a real harmonic 1-form on a compact hyperbolic surface. In particular, we establish a sublinear lower bound on the number of eigenvalues in a…
We show that if the zeros of an automorphic $L$-function are weighted by the central value of the $L$-function or a quadratic imaginary base change, then for certain families of holomorphic GL(2) newforms, it has the effect of changing the…
The advection and diffusion of a passive scalar is investigated for a map of the 2-torus. The map is chaotic, and the limit of almost-uniform stretching is considered. This allows an analytic understanding of the transition from a phase of…
We propose a framework for quantitative evaluation of dynamical tendency for polarization in arbitrary random variable that can be decomposed into a pair of orthogonal subspaces. The method uses measures based on comparisons of given…
Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the QCD Dirac operator are studied for gauge field configurations given by a liquid of instantons. We find that for energy differences $\delta E$ below an energy scale $E_c$ the eigenvalue correlations are…
We analyze eigenvalues fluctuations of the Laplacian of various networks under the random matrix theory framework. Analyses of random networks, scale-free networks and small-world networks show that nearest neighbor spacing distribution of…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the eigenvalue distribution function of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the two-dimensional torus in the adiabatic limit given by a Kronecker foliation. Related problems in number theory are discussed.
In this paper, we prove new pinching theorems for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on compact hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space. These pinching results are associated with the upper bound for the first eigenvalue in terms of higher…
