We study pairs $(f, \Gamma)$ consisting of a non-Archimedean rational function $f$ and a finite set of vertices $\Gamma$ in the Berkovich projective line, under a certain stability hypothesis. We prove that stability can always be attained…

The 2d gauge theory on the lattice is equivalent to the twisted Eguchi-Kawai model, which we simulated at N ranging from 25 to 515. We observe a clear large N scaling for the 1- and 2-point function of Wilson loops, as well as the 2-point…

It is shown that in polar geometry and normal incidence the 2x2 matrix technique - as discussed in detail in a preceeding paper [Phys. Rev. B 65, 144448 (2002)] - accounts correctly for multiple reflections and optical interferences, and…

In this note we revive a transformation that was introduced by H. S. Wall and that establishes a one-to-one correspondence between continued fraction representations of Schur, Carath\'eodory, and Nevanlinna functions. This transformation…

We give canonical matrices of a pair (A,B) consisting of a nondegenerate form B and a linear operator A satisfying B(Ax,Ay)=B(x,y) on a vector space over F in the following cases: (i) F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic…

We consider $3d$ $\mathcal{N}\!=\!2$ gauge theories with fundamental matter plus a single field in a rank-$2$ representation. Using iteratively a process of "deconfinement" of the rank-$2$ field, we produce a sequence of Seiberg-dual quiver…

On the half line $[0,\infty)$ we study first order differential operators of the form $B 1/i d/(dx) + Q(x)$, where $B:=\mat{B_1}{0}{0}{-B_2}$, $B_1,B_2\in M(n,\C)$ are self--adjoint positive definite matrices and $Q:\R_+\to M(2n,\C)$,…

We make a relativistic extension of the one-dimensional J-matrix method of scattering. The relativistic potential matrix is a combination of vector, scalar, and pseudo-scalar components. These are non-singular short-range potential…

Let $\mathcal A = \{A_{ij} \}_{i, j \in \mathcal I}$, where $\mathcal I$ is an index set, be a doubly indexed family of matrices, where $A_{ij}$ is $n_i \times n_j$. For each $i \in \mathcal I$, let $\mathcal V_i$ be an $n_i$-dimensional…

We derive the deformed sl(2) Gaudin model with integrable boundaries. Starting from the Jordanian deformation of the SL(2)-invariant Yang R-matrix and generic solutions of the associated reflection equation and the dual reflection equation,…

In this paper, we study complex Jacobi matrices obtained by the Christoffel and Geronimus transformations at a nonreal complex number, including the properties of the corresponding sequences of orthogonal polynomials. We also present some…

We review the derivation of the Gaudin model with integrable boundaries. Starting from the non-symmetric R-matrix of the inhomogeneous spin-1/2 XXZ chain and generic solutions of the reflection equation and the dual reflection equation, the…

In the representation theory of real reductive Lie groups, many objects have finiteness properties. For example, the lengths of Verma modules and principal series representations are finite, and more precisely, they are bounded. In this…

In this paper we study the extension of Painlev\'e/gauge theory correspondence to circular quivers by focusing on the special case of $SU(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=2^*$ theory. We show that the Nekrasov-Okounkov partition function of this gauge…

The recently established spectral Favard theorem for bounded banded matrices admitting a positive bidiagonal factorization is applied to a broader class of Markov chains with bounded banded transition matrices, extending beyond the…

We give a pedagogical introduction to time-independent scattering theory in one dimension focusing on the basic properties and recent applications of transfer matrices. In particular, we begin surveying some basic notions of potential…

We provide a characterisation of the continuous-time Markov models where the Markov matrices from the model can be parameterised directly in terms of the associated rate matrices (generators). That is, each Markov matrix can be expressed as…

A complete description of resonances for rational toral Anosov diffeomorphisms preserving certain Reinhardt domains is presented. As a consequence it is shown that every homotopy class of two-dimensional Anosov diffeomorphisms contains maps…

We propose the existence of a new universality in classical chaotic systems when the number of degrees of freedom is large: the statistical property of the Lyapunov spectrum is described by Random Matrix Theory. We demonstrate it by…

This work considers aspects of almost holomorphic and meromorphic Siegel modular forms from the perspective of physics and mathematics. The first part is concerned with (refined) topological string theory and the direct integration of the…
