The integral over the U(N) unitary group $I=\int DU \exp\Tr A U B U^\dagger$ is reexamined. Various approaches and extensions are first reviewed. The second half of the paper deals with more recent developments: relation with integrable…
We present an operator algebraic approach to Wigner's unitary-antiunitary theorem using some classical results from ring theory. To show how effective this approach is, we prove a generalization of this celebrated theorem for Hilbert…
In this note, we briefly introduce the background and motivation of the collaborative work [arXiv:2508.20797], and provide an outline of the main results. The latter relates to matrix and higher order scalar differential equations satisfied…
This is a translation of an article presented by Leonhard Euler on 18 March 1776 (Opera Omnia I-XVIII, pp. 265-290) and of summaries for it by Sim\'eon Denis Poisson in 1820 and by Heinrich Burkhardt in 1916. An appendix lists in modern…
We derive the leading asymptotic approximation, for low angle {\theta}, of the Wigner rotation matrix elements $d^j_{m_1m_2}(\theta)$, uniform in $j,m_1$ and $m_2$. The result is in terms of a Bessel function of integer order. We…
Let $H_k = 1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + \cdots + 1/k$ denote the $k$th harmonic number. We present an easy-to-implement algorithm for the computation of explicit closed-form evaluations, in terms of the digamma and polygamma functions, for Euler sums of…
Professor Georges Rhin considers a nonzero algebraic integer $\a$ with conjugates $\a_1=\a, \ldots, \a_d$ and asks what can be said about $\d \sum_{ | \a_i | >1} | \a_i |$, that we denote ${\rm{R}}(\a)$. If $\a$ is supposed to be a totally…
We quantise the Euclidean torus universe via a combinatorial quantisation formalism based on its formulation as a Chern-Simons gauge theory and on the representation theory of the Drinfel'd double DSU(2). The resulting quantum algebra of…
In this paper we consider the problem of the calculus of variations for a functional which is the composition of a certain scalar function $H$ with the delta integral of a vector valued field $f$, i.e., of the form…
The joint moments of the derivatives of the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix, and also a variant of the characteristic polynomial that is real on the unit circle, in the large matrix size limit, have been studied…
We introduce a family of polynomials, which arise in three distinct ways: in the large $N$ expansion of a matrix integral, as a weighted enumeration of factorisations of permutations, and via the topological recursion. More explicitly, we…
We present an efficient algorithm for calculating the number of components of an integral lamination on an $n$-punctured disk, given its Dynnikov coordinates. The algorithm requires $O(n^2M)$ arithmetic operations, where $M$ is the sum of…
In this paper, we show how a construction of an implicit complexity model can be implemented using concepts coming from the core of von Neumann algebras. Namely, our aim is to gain an understanding of classical computation in terms of the…
Using the idea of Itzykson-Zuber integral, unitary-matrix integration of 2D Yang-Mills action is presented. The uniqueness of the solution of heat equation enables us to integrate out the unitary-matrix parts of hermite matrices and to…

The Wigner time delay is a measure of the time spent by a particle inside the scattering region of an open system. For chaotic systems, the statistics of the individual delay times (whose average is the Wigner time delay) are thought to be…
We present a simple technique to compute moments of derivatives of unitary characteristic polynomials. The first part of the technique relies on an idea of Bump and Gamburd: it uses orthonormality of Schur functions over unitary groups to…
