In this article we introduce the flow polynomial of a digraph and use it to study nowhere-zero flows from a commutative algebraic perspective. Using Hilbert's Nullstellensatz, we establish a relation between nowhere-zero flows and dual…
We give a procedure to compute the rational homotopy groups of the group of quasi-unitaries of an AF-algebra. As an application, we show that an AF-algebra is K-stable if and only if it is rationally K-stable.
When the variations of surface temperature are measured both spatially and temporally, analytical expressions that correctly account for multi-dimensional transient conduction can be applied. To enhance the accessibility of these accurate…
A classification of (countable) direct limits of finite dimensional involution simple associative algebras over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic is obtained. This also classifies the corresponding dimension groups.…
In this paper we consider the polyharmonic heat flow of a closed curve in the plane. Our main result is that closed initial data with initially small normalised oscillation of curvature and isoperimetric defect flows exponentially fast in…
We perform a systematic study of the thermodynamics of quantum gases in the unitarity limit. Our study makes use of a "Universality Hypothesis" for the relevant energy scales of a many-body system at unitarity. This Hypothesis is supported…
The well-behaved representations of the coordinate algebra of a 2-dimensional quantum complex plane are classified and a C*-algebra is defined which can be viewed as the algebra of continuous functions on the 2-dimensional quantum complex…
In many clusters of galaxies there is evidence for cooling flows in the central regions. The ultimate fate of the gas which cools is still unknown. A possibility is that a fraction of the gas forms cold molecular clouds. We investigate the…
We consider the inverse curvature flows $\dot x=F^{-p}\nu$ of closed star-shaped hypersurfaces in Euclidean space in case $0<p\not=1$ and prove that the flow exists for all time and converges to infinity, if $0<p<1$, while in case $p>1$,…
A UHF flow is an infinite tensor product type action of the reals on a UHF algebra $A$ and the flip automorphism is an automorphism of $A\otimes A$ sending $x\otimes y$ into $y\otimes x$. If $\alpha$ is an inner perturbation of a UHF flow…
We consider holographic superconductors whose bulk description consists of gravity minimally coupled to a Maxwell field and charged scalar field with general potential. We give an analytic argument that there is no "hard gap": the real part…
We consider the general K\"ahler-Ricci flows which exist for all time. The zeroth order control on the flow metric potential for various infinite time singularities is the focus. The possible semi-amplness for numerically effective classes…
Using spectral flow, we provide a proof of [11, Theorem 9.17] on unitarity of Ramond twisted non-extremal representations of unitary minimal $W$-algebras that does not rely on the still conjectural exactness of the twisted quantum reduction…
We establish a representation of the heat flow with Wentzell boundary conditions on smooth domains as gradient descent dynamics for the entropy in a suitably extended Otto manifold of probability measures with additional boundary parts. Yet…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$, and suppose $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible in $R$. For each planar surface $\Sigma_{0,n+1}$, we present its Kauffman bracket skein algebra over $R$ by…
In classical thermodynamics energy always flows from the hotter system to the colder one. However, if these systems are initially correlated, the energy flow can reverse, making the cold system colder and the hot system hotter. This…
We prove that the set of visible points of any lattice of dimension at least 2 has pure point diffraction spectrum, and we determine the diffraction spectrum explicitly. This settles previous speculation on the exact nature of the…
Affinely closed homogeneous spaces G/H, i.e., affine homogeneous spaces that admit only the trivial affine embedding, are characterized for any affine algebraic group G. As a corollary, a description of affine G-algebras with finitely…
An infinite filiform Lie algebra L is residually nilpotent and its graded associated with respect to the lower central series has smallest possible dimension in each degree but is still infinite. This means that gr(L) is of dimension two in…
In this article, we study the the harmonic map heat flow from a manifold with conic singularities to a closed manifold. In particular, we have proved the short time existence and uniqueness of solutions as well as the existence of global…
