Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…

It is well-understood that the robustness of mechanical and robotic control systems depends critically on minimizing sensitivity to arbitrary application-specific details whenever possible. For example, if a system is defined and performs…

We consider compact locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma\backslash G/H$ where $G/H$ is a non-compact semisimple symmetric space and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$. We discuss some features of the joint spectrum of the (commutative)…

We investigate the completeness of Gabor systems with respect to several classes of window functions on rational lattices. Our main results show that the time-frequency shifts of every finite linear combination of Hermite functions with…

Finite frames, or spanning sets for finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, are a ubiquitous tool in signal processing. There has been much recent work on understanding the global structure of collections of finite frames with prescribed…

We introduce a class of countable groups by some abstract group-theoretic conditions. It includes linear groups with finite amenable radical and finitely generated residually finite groups with some non-vanishing $\ell^2$-Betti numbers that…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable abelian group. An (abstract) $\Gamma$-system $\mathrm{X}$ - that is, an (abstract) probability space equipped with an (abstract) probability-preserving action of $\Gamma$ - is said to be a Conze-Lesigne system if…

Let $X$ be a locally finite irreducible affine building of dimension $\geq 2$ and $\Gamma \leq \mathrm{Aut}(X)$ be a discrete group acting cocompactly. The goal of this paper is to address the following question: When is $\Gamma$ linear?…

We consider finitely generated shift-invariant spaces (SIS) with additional invariance in $L^2(\R^d)$. We prove that if the generators and their translates form a frame, then they must satisfy some stringent restrictions on their behavior…

We study the scaling limit of a statistical system, which is a special case of the integrable inhomogeneous six-vertex model. It possesses $U_q\big(\mathfrak{sl}(2)\big)$ invariance due to the choice of open boundary conditions imposed. An…

Let $G/\Gamma$ be the quotient of a semisimple Lie group by an arithmetic lattice. We show that for reductive subgroups $H$ of $G$ that is large enough, the orbits of $H$ on $G/\Gamma$ intersect nontrivially with a fixed compact set. As a…

We prove several cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions of higher-rank cocompact lattices on low dimensional manifolds. For example, if $\Gamma$ is a cocompact lattice in $\mathrm{Sl}(n, \mathbb R)$, $M$ is a compact manifold, and…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group with left regular representation $\lambda_{G}.$ We say that $G$ admits a frame of translates if there exist a countable set $\Gamma\subset G$ and $\varphi\in L^{2}(G)$ such that $(\lambda_{G}(x)…

A meta generalized gradient level screened range-separated hybrid functional is developed for solid-state electronic structure theory. Assessment of the present range-separated hybrid functional for solid-state lattice constants and band…

We propose a powerful and convenient method to systematically design flat-band lattice models, which overcomes the difficulties underlying the previous method. Especially, our method requires no elaborate calculations, applies to arbitrary…

We review various combinatorial applications of field theoretical and matrix model approaches to equilibrium statistical physics involving the enumeration of fixed and random lattice model configurations. We show how the structures of the…

The construction of generalized continuous wavelet transforms on locally compact abelian groups $A$ from quasi-regular representations of a semidirect product group $G = A \rtimes H$ acting on ${\rm L}^2(A)$ requires the existence of a…

In [12] was introduced, for cyclic groups, the class of partially filled arrays of the non-zero sum Heffter array that are, as the Heffter arrays, related to difference families, graph decompositions, and biembeddings. Here we generalize…

It is known that, in general, an affine or Gabor AP-frame is an $L^2(\mathbb{R})$-frame and conversely. In part as a consequence of the Ergodic Theorem, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for an affine (wavelet) system…

The number of homomorphisms from a finite graph $F$ to the complete graph $K_n$ is the evaluation of the chromatic polynomial of $F$ at $n$. Suitably scaled, this is the Tutte polynomial evaluation $T(F;1-n,0)$ and an invariant of the cycle…
