In the first of this two-part series, we find `fixed point factorisation' formulas, towards an understanding of the fusion ring of WZW models. Fixed-point factorisation refers to the simplifications in the data of a CFT involving primary…

We study the spectra of operators on periodic graphs using methods from combinatorial algebraic geometry. Our main result is a bound on the number of complex critical points of the Bloch variety, together with an effective criterion for…

In this article, we combine complex-analytic and arithmetic tools to study the preperiodic points of one-dimensional complex dynamical systems. We show that for any fixed complex numbers a and b, and any integer d at least 2, the set of…

We study the determination of a holomorphic function from its absolute value. Given a parameter $\theta \in \mathbb{R}$, we derive the following characterization of uniqueness in terms of rigidity of a set $\Lambda \subseteq \mathbb{R}$: if…

Let $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$ be an untwisted affine Lie algebra or the twisted counterpart thereof (which excludes the affine Lie algebras of type $\widehat{BC}_n=A^{(2)}_{2n}$). We present an affine Pieri rule for a basis of periodic Macdonald…

Periods of rational integrals appear in quantum mechanics through asymptotic expansions of traces computed with the semiclassical symbol calculus. We develop a novel formal series expansion for the trace of the Dirac delta of a differential…

The goal of this paper is to offer a new construction of the de Rham-Witt complex of smooth varieties over perfect fields of characteristic $p>0$. We introduce a category of cochain complexes equipped with an endomorphism $F$ of underlying…

Ordinary differential operators with periodic coefficients analytic in a strip act on a Hardy-Hilbert space of analytic functions with inner product defined by integration over a period on the boundary of the strip. Simple examples show…

We obtain estimates exact in order for deviations of Zygmund sums in metrics of spaces $L_{q}$, $1<q<\infty$, on classes of $2\pi$-periodic functions, that admit the representation in the form of convolution of functions that belong to unit…

The Dedekind zeta function of a quadratic number field factors as a product of the Riemann zeta function and the $L$-function of a quadratic Dirichlet character. We categorify this formula using objective linear algebra in the abstract…

We characterize the sequences of fixed point indices $\{i(f^n, p)\}_{n\ge 1}$ of fixed points that are isolated as an invariant set and continuous maps in the plane. In particular, we prove that the sequence is periodic and $i(f^n, p) \le…

This note is aimed at presenting a new algebraic approach to momentum-space correlators in conformal field theory. As an illustration we present a new Lie-algebraic method to compute frequency-space two-point functions for charged scalar…

Let $k$ be an algebraic closed field of characteristic zero. Let $K$ be the rational function field $K=k(t)$. Let $\phi$ be a non isotrivial rational function in $K(z)$. We prove a bound for the cardinality of the set of $K$--rational…

We study conditions for the abstract periodic linear functional differential equation $\dot{x}=Ax+F(t)x_t+f(t)$ to have almost periodic with the same structure of frequencies as $f$. The main conditions are stated in terms of the spectrum…

We consider the periodic totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with a general initial condition that properly approximates a periodic upper-semicontinuous function. We find the large time limit of the rescaled space-time multipoint…

Let G by compact p-adic Lie group and suppose that G is FAb, i.e., that H/[H,H] is finite for every open subgroup H of G. The representation zeta function Z(G,s) encodes the distribution of continuous irreducible complex characters of G.…

Let $F$ be a finite field of order $q$ and characteristic $p$. Let $\mathbb{Z}_F=F[t]$, $\mathbb{Q}_F=F(t)$, $\mathbb{R}_F=F((1/t))$ equipped with the discrete valuation for which $1/t$ is a uniformizer, and let…

We establish asymptotic estimates for exact upper bounds of uniform approximations by Fourier sums on the classes of $2\pi$-periodic functions, which are represented by convolutions of functions $\varphi (\varphi\bot 1)$ from unit ball of…

We prove a special case of a dynamical analogue of the classical Mordell-Lang conjecture. In particular, let $\phi$ be a rational function with no superattracting periodic points other than exceptional points. If the coefficients of $\phi$…
