We explore the relationship between approximate symmetries of a gapped Hamiltonian and the structure of its ground space. We start by showing that approximate symmetry operators---unitary operators whose commutators with the Hamiltonian…

A question going back to Halmos asks when two approximately commuting matrices of a certain kind are close to exactly commuting matrices of the same kind. It has long been known that there is a winding number obstruction for approximately…

Rayleigh-Schr\"{o}dinger perturbation theory is a well-known theory in quantum mechanics and it offers useful characterization of eigenvectors of a perturbed matrix. Suppose $A$ and perturbation $E$ are both Hermitian matrices, $A^t = A +…

This is a proof of an asymptotic formula which describes exponentially small splitting of separatrices in a generic analytic family of area-preserving maps near a Hamiltonian saddle-centre bifurcation. As a particular case and in…

Every sufficiently big matrix with small spectral norm has a nearby low-rank matrix if the distance is measured in the maximum norm (Udell & Townsend, SIAM J Math Data Sci, 2019). We use the Hanson--Wright inequality to improve the estimate…

The usual derivation of Einstein's field equations from the Einstein--Hilbert action is performed by silently assuming the metric tensor's symmetric character. If this symmetry is not assumed, the result is a new theory, such as Einstein's…

We provide an approximate zero $\widetilde{S}(g,L)$ for the hyperbolic Kepler's equation $S-g\, {\rm asinh} (S)-L=0$ for $g\in(0,1)$ and $L\in[0,\infty)$. We prove, by using Smale's $\alpha$-theory, that Newton's method starting at our…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift term in an open subset of two-dimensional Euclidean space. When the drift is given by $\varepsilon^{-1} (H_{x_2}, -H_{x_1})$ of a Hamiltonian…

We analyze the asymptotic behavior of random variables $x(n,x\_0)$ defined by $x(0,x\_0)=x\_0$ and $x(n+1,x\_0)=A(n)x(n,x\_0)$, where $\sAn$ is a stationary and ergodic sequence of random matrices with entries in the semi-ring…

In this paper, we generalize the classical Freidlin-Wentzell's theorem for random perturbations of Hamiltonian systems. In stead of the two-dimensional standard Brownian motion, the coefficient for the noise term is no longer the identity…

The matrix Schroedinger equation with a selfadjoint matrix potential is considered on the half line with the most general selfadjoint boundary condition at the origin. When the matrix potential is integrable and has a first moment, it is…

Consider a random walk $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i$ with independent and identically distributed real-valued increments $X_i$ of zero mean and finite variance. Assume that $X_i$ is non-lattice and has a moment of order $2+\delta$. For any $x\geq…

This paper is concerned with the characterizations of quasi self-adjoint extensions of a class of formally non-self-adjoint discrete Hamiltonian systems. Some properties of the solutions and the characterization of the minimal linear…

We prove that the commutator is stable in permutations endowed with the Hamming distance, that is, two permutations that almost commute are near two commuting permutations. Our result extends to $k$-tuples of almost commuting permutations,…

We consider an abstract sequence $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ of closed symmetric operators on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. It is assumed that all $A_n$'s have equal deficiency indices $(k,k)$ and thus self-adjoint extensions…

We address the well-known limitation of the Huxley and Simmons 1971 (HS) model. It is a statement that at physiological value of stiffness in the actomyosin complex, the distribution of the myosin motors becomes microscopically uniform (all…

We consider classical $O(N)$ vector models in dimension three and higher and investigate the nature of the low-temperature expansions for their multipoint spin correlations. We prove that such expansions define asymptotic series, and derive…

Exploiting the gauge/gravity correspondence we find the spectrum of hadronic-like bound states of adjoint particles with a large global charge in several confining theories. In particular, we consider an embedding of four-dimensional N=1…

For a large class of expanding maps of the interval, we prove that partial sums of Lipschitz observables satisfy an almost sure central limit theorem (ASCLT). In fact, we provide a speed of convergence in the Kantorovich metric. Maxima of…
