In this work, we analyze the macroscopic observables in the 1+1D gapped phases with Abelian onsite symmetries and show that the spacetime observables for each gapped phase form a clear structure that can be mathematically described by…
Artificial lattices have been used as a platform to extend the application of topological physics beyond electronic systems. Here, using the two-dimensional Lieb lattice as a prototypical example, we show that an array of disks which each…
The stability of the insulating regime of the Hubbard model on a $d$-dimensional lattice, which is characterized by an exponential decay of the Green's functions, is investigated in terms of a cluster expansion. This expansion for the…
We investigate the spectral properties of one-dimensional lattices with position-dependent hopping amplitudes and on-site potentials that are smooth bounded functions of position. We find an exact integral form for the density of states…

We study the surface roughness of prototype models displaying self-organized criticality (SOC) and their noncritical variants in one dimension. For SOC systems, we find that two seemingly equivalent definitions of surface roughness yields…
We consider a heterogeneous elastic structure which is stratified in some direction. We derive the limit problem under the assumption that the Lam\'e coefficients and their inverses weakly* converge to Radon measures. Our method applies…
We discuss some features of a boundary value problem for a system of PDEs that describes the growth of a sandpile in a container under the action of a vertical source. In particular, we characterize the long-term behavior of the profiles,…
In this note we show, roughly speaking, that if $\mathcal{B}$ is a Boolean algebra included in the natural way in the collection $\mathcal{D}/_\sim$ of all equivalence classes of natural density sets of the natural numbers, modulo null…
The square lattice with central forces between nearest neighbors is isostatic with a subextensive number of floppy modes. It can be made rigid by the random addition of next-nearest neighbor bonds. This constitutes a rigidity percolation…
We consider complex eigenstates of unstable Hamiltonian and its physically meaningful regions. Starting from a simple model of a discrete state interacting with a continuum via a general potential, we show that its Lippmann-Schwinger…
We review the Majumdar-Dhar bijection between recurrent states of the Abelian sandpile model and spanning trees. We generalize earlier results of Athreya and Jarai on the infinite volume limit of the stationary distribution of the sandpile…
This paper considers a sandpile model subjected to a sinusoidal external drive with the time period $T$. We develop a theoretical model for the Green function in a large $T$ limit, which predicts that the avalanches are anisotropic and…
Scattering states with LEED asymptotics are calculated for a general non-muffin tin potential, as e.g. for a pseudopotential with a suitable barrier and image potential part. The latter applies especially to the case of low lying conduction…
We examine the bound state(s) associated with a single cubic nonlinear impurity, in a one-dimensional tight-binding lattice, where hopping to first--and--second nearest neighbors is allowed. The model is solved in closed form {\em v\`{\i}a}…
This study concerns the two-body scattering of particles in a one-dimensional periodic potential. A convenient ansatz allows for the separation of center-of-mass and relative motion, leading to a discrete Schr\"odinger equation in the…
We analyze an optimal stopping problem for random walk in random scenery on general graphs, and determine when it has a finite optimum. We use this to extend a theorem of Levine, Murugan, Peres, and Ugurcan [2016]. They proved that on a…
We prove general theorems for isoperimetric problems on lattices of the form ${\mathbb{Z}}^{k} \times {\mathbb{N}}^{d}$ which state that the perimeter of the optimal set is a monotonically increasing function of the volume under certain…
We study perturbations of the maximal stable state in a sandpile model on the set of faces of the heptagonal tiling on the hyperbolic plane. An explicit description for relaxations of such states is given.
