It is shown that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a subnormal weighted shift on a directed tree (with or without root) whose $n$th power is densely defined while its $(n+1)$th power is not. As a consequence, for every positive…

For a given subcritical discrete Schr\"odinger operator $H$ on a weighted infinite graph $X$, we construct a Hardy-weight $w$ which is optimal in the following sense. The operator $H - \lambda w$ is subcritical in $X$ for all $\lambda < 1$,…

We study the connective constants of weighted self-avoiding walks (SAWs) on infinite graphs and groups. The main focus is upon weighted SAWs on finitely generated, virtually indicable groups. Such groups possess so-called 'height…

In this paper we study the shifts, which are the shift-invariant and topologically closed sets of configurations over a finite alphabet in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The minimal shifts are those shifts in which all configurations contain exactly the…

In this paper, we characterize the weighted infinitesimal boundedness: for $0<\alpha<n$ and $1<p<\infty$, $$\|V\phi\|_{L^{p}(w)}^{p}\leq\epsilon\|(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\phi\|_{L^{p}(w)}^{p}+C(\epsilon)\|\phi\|_{L^{p}(w)}^{p}.$$ In…

Given a matrix-weight $W$ in the Muckenhoupt class $\mathbf{A}_p(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, we introduce corresponding vector-valued continuous and discrete $\alpha$-modulation spaces $M^{s,\alpha}_{p,q}(W)$ and…

A number of recent papers have considered signed graph Laplacians, a generalization of the classical graph Laplacian, where the edge weights are allowed to take either sign. In the classical case, where the edge weights are all positive,…

We exploit the non-perturbative result that the $\theta$ angle which defines the vacuum structure is not a $c$-number free parameter, as suggested by the instanton semi-classical approximation, but instead one of the points of the spectrum…

We prove a Weiss conjecture on $\beta$-admissibility of control and observation operators for discrete and continuous $\gamma$-hypercontractive semigroups of operators, by representing them in terms of shifts on weighted Bergman spaces and…

Positivity bounds are powerful tools to constrain effective field theories. Utilizing the partial wave expansion in the dispersion relation and the full crossing symmetry of the scattering amplitude, we derive several sets of generically…

We introduce an exact mapping of Clifford (stabilizer) random tensor networks (RTNs) and monitored quantum circuits, onto a statistical mechanics model. With Haar unitaries, the fundamental degrees of freedom ('spins') are permutations…
