We introduce a new symmetry class of domino tilings of the Aztec diamond, called the off-diagonal symmetry class, which is motivated by the off-diagonally symmetric alternating sign matrices introduced by Kuperberg in 2002. We use the…
We study constrained percolation models on planar lattices including the $[m,4,n,4]$ lattice and the square tilings of the hyperbolic plane, satisfying certain local constraints on faces of degree 4, and investigate the existence of…
The one-dimensional (1D) domain wall of 2D $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ topological orders is studied theoretically. The Ising domain wall model is shown to have an emergent SU(2)$_{1}$ conformal symmetry because of a hidden nonsymmorphic octahedral…
We revisit the phenomenon where, for certain domains $D$, if the squeezing function $s_D$ extends continuously to a point $p\in \partial{D}$ with value $1$, then $\partial{D}$ is strongly pseudoconvex around $p$. In $\mathbb{C}^2$, we…
The dependence on the domain is studied for the Dirichlet eigenvalues of an elliptic operator considered in bounded domains. Their proximity is measured by a norm of the difference of two orthogonal projectors corresponding to the reference…
We consider the triangular lattice ice model (20-Vertex model) with four types of domain-wall type boundary conditions. In types 1 and 2, the configurations are shown to be equinumerous to the quarter-turn symmetric domino tilings of an…
It is widely believed that the celebrated 2D Ising model at criticality has a universal and conformally invariant scaling limit, which is used in deriving many of its properties. However, no mathematical proof of universality and conformal…
The phase diagram and the thermodynamics of the random field Ising model (RFIM) defined on a family of diamond hierarchical lattices of arbitrary dimension and scaling factor $b=2$ is investigated. The phase diagram is studied considering…
We study the number of tilings of skew Young diagrams by ribbon tiles shaped like Dyck paths, in which the tiles are "vertically decreasing". We use these quantities to compute pairing probabilities in the double-dimer model: Given a planar…
The paper deals with finite element approximations of elliptic Dirichlet boundary control problems posed on two-dimensional polygonal domains. Error estimates are derived for the approximation of the control and the state variables. Special…
We study the statistical behavior of two out of equilibrium systems. The first one is a quasi one-dimensional gas with two species of particles under the action of an external field which drives each species in opposite directions. The…
Domain wall - type solution with oscillating thickness in a real, scalar field model is investigated with the help of a polynomial approximation. We propose a simple extension of the polynomial approximation method. In this approach we…
A discrete Fourier analysis associated with translation lattices is developed recently by the authors. It permits two lattices, one determining the integral domain and the other determining the family of exponential functions. Possible…
We study the Dirichlet problem for discrete harmonic functions in unbounded product domains on multidimensional lattices. First we prove some versions of the Phragm\'en-Lindel\"of theorem and use Fourier series to obtain a discrete analog…
Consider the Ising model on a centered box of side length $n$ in $\mathbb Z^d$ with $\mp$-boundary conditions that are minus in the upper half-space and plus in the lower half-space. Dobrushin famously showed that in dimensions $d\ge 3$, at…
We study a fermionic dark matter model in which the interaction of the dark and visible sectors is mediated by Higgs portal type couplings. Specifically, we consider the mixing of a dark sector scalar with the scalars of a Two Higgs Doublet…
Disformal couplings to fermions lead to a unique derivative coupling to the axial fermionic current, which contains higher derivatives in general. We derive general conditions on consistent disformal couplings by requiring the absence of…
We obtain precise asymptotics for the weighted number of domino tilings of an L-shaped subset of the Aztec diamond, obtained by removing an approximate rectangle in a corner of the Aztec diamond. By tuning the size of the removed corner, we…
The dimer model is an exactly solvable model of planar statistical mechanics. In its critical phase, various aspects of its scaling limit are known to be described by the Gaussian free field. For periodic graphs, criticality is an algebraic…
Discrete and continuous non-intersecting random processes have given rise to critical "infinite dimensional diffusions", like the Airy process, the Pearcey process and variations thereof. It has been known that domino tilings of very large…
