We consider the following class of fractional Schr\"odinger equations $$ (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u + V(x)u = K(x) f(u) \mbox{in} \mathbb{R}^{N} $$ where $\alpha\in (0, 1)$, $N>2\alpha$, $(-\Delta)^{\alpha}$ is the fractional Laplacian, $V$ and…

In the limit of the lattice spacing going to zero, we consider the dimer model on isoradial graphs in the presence of singular $SL(N,\mathbb{C})$ gauge fields flat away from a set of punctures. We consider the cluster expansion of this…

Properly discontinuous actions of a surface group by affine automorphisms of $\mathbb R^d$ were shown to exist by Danciger-Gueritaud-Kassel. We show, however, that if the linear part of an affine surface group action is in the Hitchin…

We consider an $\varepsilon$-periodic ($\varepsilon\to 0$) tubular structure, modelled as a magnetic Laplacian on a metric graph, which is periodic along a single axis. We show that the corresponding Hamiltonian admits norm-resolvent…

We solve the classical square-lattice dimer model with periodic boundaries and in the presence of a field $\boldsymbol{t}$ that couples to the (vector) flux, by diagonalizing a modified version of Lieb's transfer matrix. After deriving the…

In this paper, we investigate Liouville theorems for solutions to the anisotropic $p$-Laplace equation $$-\Delta_p^H u=-\operatorname{div}(a(\nabla u))=f(u),\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^n,$$ where the semilinear term $f$ may be positive,…

The Pfaff lattice is an integrable system arising from the SR-group factorization in an analogous way to how the Toda lattice arises from the QR-group factorization. In our recent paper [{\it Intern. Math. Res. Notices}, (2007) rnm120], we…

Consider the equation of the linear oscillator $u"+u=h(\theta)$, where the forcing term $h:\mathbb R\to\mathbb R$ is $2\pi$-periodic and positive. We show that the existence of a periodic solution implies the existence of a positive…

We introduce (generalised) Pfaffian operators into our lattice calculations of the mass spectra and confining string tensions of SO(2N) gauge theories, complementing the conventional trace operators used in previous lattice calculations. In…

We elaborate on previous results concerning the positivity of the Euclidean path integral measure for low-energy modes in dense fermionic matter. We show that the sign problem usually associated with fermions is absent if one considers only…

This paper completes the comprehensive study of the dimer model on infinite minimal graphs with Fock's weights [arXiv:1503.00289] initiated in [arXiv:2007.14699]: the latter article dealt with the elliptic case, i.e., models whose…
