Let $\vee^k A$ be the $k$-th symmetric tensor power of $A\in M_n(\mathbb{C})$. In \cite{IAM}, we have expressed the normalized trace of $\vee^kA$ as an integral of the $k$-th powers of the numerical values of $A$ over the unit sphere…

Conrey, Farmer, Keating, Rubinstein and Snaith have given a recipe that conjecturally produces, among others, the full moment polynomial for the Riemann zeta function. The leading term of this polynomial is given as a product of a factor…

We investigate the modeling capabilities of sets of coupled classical harmonic oscillators (CHO) in the form of a modeling game. The application of simple but restrictive rules of the game lead to conditions for an isomorphism between…

We define the $L$-measure on the set of Dirichlet characters as an analogue of the Plancherel measure, once considered as a measure on the irreducible characters of the symmetric group. We compare the two measures and study the limit in…

We cover some useful techniques in computational aspects of analytic number theory, with specific emphasis on ideas relevant to the evaluation of L-functions. These techniques overlap considerably with basic methods from analytic number…

We study Matrix Quantum Mechanics on the Euclidean time orbifold $S_1/\mathbb{Z}_2$. Upon Wick rotation to Lorentzian time and taking the double-scaling limit this theory provides a toy model for a big-bang/big crunch universe in two…

On a given Riemann surface, we construct a path integral based on the Liouville action functional with imaginary parameters. The construction relies on the compactified Gaussian Free Field (GFF), which we perturb with a curvature term and…

We show how Coxeter's work implies a bijection between complex reflection groups of rank two and real reflection groups in $O(3)$. We also consider this magic square of reflections and rotations in the framework of Clifford algebras: we…

The problem of calculating the scaled limit of the joint moments of the characteristic polynomial, and the derivative of the characteristic polynomial, for matrices from the unitary group with Haar measure first arose in studies relating to…

Quantum Liouville theory is analyzed in terms of the infinite dimensional representations of $U_Qsl(2,C)$ with q a root of unity. Making full use of characteristic features of the representations, we show that vertex operators in this…

Our results can be viewed as applications of algebraic combinatorics in random matrix theory. These applications are motivated by the predictive power of random matrix theory for the statistical behavior of the celebrated Riemann…

We consider the semiclassical limit of the spectral form factor $K(\tau)$ of fully chaotic dynamics. Starting from the Gutzwiller type double sum over classical periodic orbits we set out to recover the universal behavior predicted by…

Spherically symmetric random walks in arbitrary dimension $D$ can be described in terms of Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials. For example, Legendre polynomials can be used to represent the special case of two-dimensional spherically…

For finite groups $G$, we show that bosonic-fermionic coinvariant rings have a natural $U(\mathfrak{gl}(k|j)) \otimes \mathbb{C}[G]$-module structure. In particular, we show that their character series are a sum of super Schur functions…

We show how to use Clifford algebra techniques to describe the de Rham cohomology ring of equal rank compact symmetric spaces $G/K$. In particular, for $G/K=U(n)/U(k)\times U(n-k)$, we obtain a new way of multiplying Schur polynomials,…

Estimating quantum fermionic properties is a computationally difficult yet crucial task for the study of electronic systems. Recent developments have begun to address this challenge by introducing classical shadows protocols relying on…

We investigate the joint moments of derivatives of characteristic polynomials over the unitary symplectic group $Sp(2N)$ and the orthogonal ensembles $SO(2N)$ and $O^-(2N)$. We prove asymptotic formulae for the joint moments of the $n_1$-th…

We consider random Young diagrams with respect to the measure induced by the decomposition of the $p$-th exterior power of $\mathbb{C}^{n}\otimes \mathbb{C}^{k}$ into irreducible representations of $GL_{n}\times GL_{k}$. We demonstrate that…

Landau examined the partial sums of the M\"obius function and the Liouville function for a number field $K$. First we shall try again the same problem by using a new Perron's formula due to Liu and Ye. Next we consider the equivalent…
