This note studies the asymptotic properties of the variable $$Z_d:=\frac{X_1}{d}|\{X_1+X_2=d\},$$ as $d\to \infty$. Here $X_1$ and $X_2$ are non-negative i.i.d. variables with a common twice differentiable density function $f$. General…

Cyclic algebraic Z^d-actions are defined by ideals of Laurent polynomials in d commuting variables. Such an action is expansive precisely when the complex variety of the ideal is disjoint from the multiplicative d-torus. For such expansive…

Let $\chi$ be an order $c$ multiplicative character of a finite field and $f(x)=x^d+\lambda x^e$ a binomial with $(d,e)=1$. We study the twisted classical and $T$-adic Newton polygons of $f$. When $p>(d-e)(2d-1)$, we give a lower bound of…

We generalize a semi-norm for the Alexander polynomial of a connected, compact, oriented 3-manifold on its first cohomology group to a semi-norm for an arbitrary Laurent polynomial f on the dual vector space to the space of exponents of f.…

The effect of restricting the plaquette to be greater than a certain cutoff value is studied. The action considered is the standard Wilson action with the addition of a plaquette restriction, which should not affect the continuum limit of…

We consider the convolution equation $(\delta - J) * G = g$ on $\mathbb R^d$, $d>2$, where $\delta$ is the Dirac delta function and $J,g$ are given functions. We provide conditions on $J, g$ that ensure the deconvolution $G(x)$ to decay as…

In this paper, we shall precise the asymptotic behaviour of Newton polygons of $L$ functions associated to character sums, coming from some $n$ variable Laurent polynomials. In order to do this, we use the free sum on convex polytopes. This…

We introduce an algebraic model, based on the determinantal expansion of the product of two matrices, to test combinatorial reductions of set functions. Each term of the determinantal expansion is deformed through a monomial factor in d…

For prime $p\equiv-1\bmod d$ and $q$ a power of $p$, we obtain the slopes of the $q$-adic Newton polygons of $L$-functions of $x^d+ax^{d-1}\in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ with respect to finite characters $\chi$ when $p$ is larger than an explicit…

We fix a monic polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb F_q[x]$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ of degree relatively prime to $p$. Let $a\mapsto \omega(a)$ be the Teichm\"uller lift of $\mathbb F_q$, and let $\chi:\mathbb{Z}\to \mathbb…

We study random variables of the form $f(X)$, when $f$ is a degree $d$ polynomial, and $X$ is a random vector on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, motivated towards a deeper understanding of the covariance structure of $X^{\otimes d}$. For applications,…

A lattice action for QED is considered, where the derivatives in the Dirac operator are replaced by one-sided lattice differences. A systematic expansion in the lattice spacing of the one-loop contribution to the fermion self energy, vacuum…

We give conditions on a real-valued function $F$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, for $d>2$, which ensure that the solution $G$ to the convolution equation $(F*G)(x) = \delta_{0,x}$ has Gaussian decay $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ for large $|x|$. Precursors of our…

We prove that the ergodic deviation of a degenerate $\mathbb{Z}^2$-action on the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$ relative to a symmetric, strictly convex body can be decomposed into two parts, and that each part admits a limit distribution after…

Let H be a subgroup of some locally compact group G. Assume H is approximable by discrete subgroups and G admits neighborhood bases which are "almost-invariant" under conjugation by finite subsets of H. Let $m: G \to \mathbb{C}$ be a…

Let $p$ be a prime number. Every two-variable polynomial $f(x_1, x_2)$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ defines an Artin--Schreier--Witt tower of surfaces whose Galois group is isomorphic to $\mathbb Z_p$. Our goal of this paper is…

We establish a correspondence between one-parameter deformations of an affine Gorenstein toric pair $(X_P, \partial X_P)$, defined by a polytope $P$, and mutations of a Laurent polynomial $f$ with Newton polytope $\newt(f) = P$. For a…

Rate distortion dimension describes the theoretical limit of lossy data compression methods as the distortion bound goes to zero. It was originally introduced in the context of information theory, and recently it was discovered that it has…

Let d>2 and let p be a prime coprime to d. Let Z_pbar be the ring of integers of Q_pbar. Suppose f(x) is a degree-d polynomial over Qbar and Z_pbar. Let P be a prime ideal over p in the ring of integers of Q(f), where Q(f) is the number…
