We consider variational integrals of the form $\int F(D^2u)$ where $F$ is convex and smooth on the Hessian space. We show that a critical point $u\in W^{2,\infty}$ of such a functional under compactly supported variations is smooth if the…
We give a detailed study of the critical points of the potentials of the simplest non-trivial N=2 gauged Yang-Mills/Einstein supergravity theories with tensor multiplets. The scalar field target space of these examples is…
We study the critical properties of the $3d$ $O(2)$ universality class in bounded domains through Monte Carlo simulations of the clock model. We use an improved version of the latter, chosen to minimize finite-size corrections at…
We employ the nonperturbative functional Renormalization Group to study models with an O(N_1)+O(N_2) symmetry. Here, different fixed points exist in three dimensions, corresponding to bicritical and tetracritical behavior induced by the…
This paper studies the non-holomorphic Eisenstein series E(z,s) for the modular surface, and shows that integration with respect to certain non-negative measures gives meromorphic functions of s that have all their zeros on the critical…
We prove the existence of critical points of the $N$-vortex Hamiltonian $H_\Omega (x_1,\ldots, x_N) =\sum\limits^N_{i=1}\Gamma^2_i h(x_i) + \sum\limits_{i,j=1\atop j\not= k}^N…
In this paper, we study common zeros of the iterated derivatives of the Eisenstein series for $\Gamma_0^+(N)$ of level $N=1,2$ and $3$, which are quasi-modular forms. More precisely, we investigate the common zeros of quasi-modular forms,…
This paper provides a simple method to extract the zeros of some weight two Eisenstein series of level $N$ where $N=2,3,5$ and $7$. The method is based on the observation that these Eisenstein series are integral over the graded algebra of…
We find candidate macroscopic gravity duals for scale-invariant but non-Lorentz invariant fixed points, which do not have particle number as a conserved quantity. We compute two-point correlation functions which exhibit novel behavior…
We construct a reparametrization invariant two-point function for c=-2 conformal matter coupled to two-dimensional quantum gravity. From the two-point function we extract the critical indices \nu and \eta. The results support the quantum…
We show that the Green functions on flat tori can have either 3 or 5 critical points only. There does not seemto be any directmethod to attack this problem. Instead, we have to employ sophisticated non-linear partial differential equations…
Structure and properties of families of critical points for classes of functions $W(z,\bar{z})$ obeying the elliptic Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation $E(1/2,1/2)$ are studied. General variational and differential equations governing the…
We count the number of zeros of the holomorphic odd weight Eisenstein series in all $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-translates of the standard fundamental domain.
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded simply connected domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We investigate the existence of critical points of the energy $E_\varepsilon (u)=1/2\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^2+1/(4\varepsilon^2)\int_\Omega (1-|u|^2)^2$, where the…
We examine the zeros of newform Eisenstein series $E_{\chi_1,\chi_2,k}(z)$ of weight $k$ on $\Gamma_0(q_1 q_2)$, where $\chi_1$ and $\chi_2$ are primitive characters modulo $q_1$ and $q_2$, respectively. We determine the location and…
For compact U(1) lattice gauge theory (LGT) we have performed a finite size scaling analysis on $N_{\tau} N_s^3$ lattices for $N_{\tau}$ fixed and $N_s\to\infty$, approaching the phase transition from the confined phase. For $N_{\tau}=4$, 5…
We find exact, analytic solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation for a scalar field in the background of the extremal Reissner-Nordstrom-AdS_5 black hole. The Green's function near a quantum critical point for a strongly coupled system can be…
The conjecture that $N=2$ minimal models in two dimensions are critical points of a super-renormalizable Landau-Ginzburg model can be tested by computing the path integral of the Landau-Ginzburg model with certain twisted boundary…
The zeros of classical Eisenstein series satisfy many intriguing properties. Work of F. Rankin and Swinnerton-Dyer pinpoints their location to a certain arc of the fundamental domain, and recent work by Nozaki explores their interlacing…
We analyze the renormalization group fixed point of the two-dimensional Ising model at criticality. In contrast with expectations from tensor network renormalization (TNR), we show that a simple, explicit analytic description of this fixed…
