The principal aim of this note is to illustrate how factorizations of singular, even-order partial differential operators yield an elementary approach to classical inequalities of Hardy-Rellich-type. More precisly, introducing the…
This work develops an operator-theoretic and dynamical framework inspired by the Riemann--von Mangoldt formula, chaotic dynamics, and random-matrix models for the Riemann zeta function, without attempting to prove the Riemann Hypothesis.…
In this Ph.D. thesis, written under the direction of D.B. Zagier and R.W. Bruggeman, we study the mock theta functions, that were introduced by Ramanujan. We show how they can be interpreted in the theory of (real-analytic) modular forms.…
The generalized Wilson loop operator interpolating between the supersymmetric and the ordinary Wilson loop in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM theory provides an interesting example of renormalization group flow on a line defect: the scalar coupling…
We introduce a new method for studying universality of random matrices. Let T_n be the Jacobi matrix associated to the Dyson beta ensemble with uniformly convex polynomial potential. We show that after scaling, T_n converges to the…
The theta-block conjecture proposed by Gritsenko--Poor--Yuen in 2013 characterizes Siegel paramodular forms which are simultaneously Borcherds products and additive Jacobi lifts. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for two new infinite…
We provide an explicit description of the recurrent configurations of the sandpile model on a family of graphs $\widehat{G}_{\mu,\nu}$, which we call clique-independent graphs, indexed by two compositions $\mu$ and $\nu$. Moreover, we…
The theory of geometric zeta functions for locally symmetric spaces as initialized by Selberg and continued by numerous mathematicians is generalized to the case of higher rank spaces. We show analytic continuation, describe the divisor in…
We present new results concerning the approximation of the total variation, $\int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|$, of a function $u$ by non-local, non-convex functionals of the form $$ \Lambda_\delta u = \int_{\Omega} \int_{\Omega} \frac{\delta…
By adapting the work of Kudla and Millson we obtain a lifting of cuspidal cohomology classes for the symmetric space associated to GO(V) for an indefinite rational quadratic space V of even dimension to holomorphic Siegel modular forms on…
We study the commutation relations and normal ordering between families of operators on symmetric functions. These operators can be naturally defined by the operations of multiplication, Kronecker product, and their adjoints. As…
We determine a fundamental solution for the differential operator (Delta - lambda_z)^n on the Riemannian symmetric space G/K, where G is any complex semi-simple Lie group, and K is a maximal compact subgroup. We develop a global zonal…
If $T$ is a (densely defined) self-adjoint operator acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and $I$ stands for the identity operator, we introduce the delta function operator $\lambda \mapsto \delta \left(\lambda I-T\right) $ at…
Using as starting point a classical integral representation of a L-function we define a familly of two variables extended functions which are eigenfunctions of a Hermitian operator (having imaginary part of zeros as eigenvalues). This…
Our main result here is that the specialization at $t=1/q$ of the $Q_{km,kn}$ operators studied in [4] may be given a very simple plethystic form. This discovery yields elementary and direct derivations of several identities relating these…
We use the Pieri and Giambelli formulas of arXiv:0809.4966 and arXiv:1109.6669 and the calculus of raising operators developed in arXiv:0811.2781 and arXiv:0812.0639 to prove a tableau formula for eta polynomials of arXiv:1109.6669 and the…
Beginning with the conjecture of Artin and Tate in 1966, there has been a series of successively more general conjectures expressing the special values of the zeta function of an algebraic variety over a finite field in terms of other…
We propose and investigate a strategy toward a proof of the Riemann Hypothesis based on a spectral realization of its non-trivial zeros. Our approach constructs self-adjoint operators obtained as rank-one perturbations of the spectral…
An old conjecture claims that commuting Hamiltonians of the double-elliptic integrable system are constructed from the theta-functions associated with Riemann surfaces from the Seiberg-Witten family, with moduli treated as dynamical…
In the study of Zeilberger's conjecture on an integer sequence related to the Catalan numbers, Lassalle proposed the following conjecture. Let $(t)_n$ denote the rising factorial, and let $\Lambda_{\mathbb{R}}$ denote the algebra of…
