We show that, on a $d-$dimensional hypercubic lattice with $d>1$, conserved-mass transport processes, with {\it multidirectional} hopping that respect all symmetries of the lattice, exhibit power-law correlations for generic parameter…
We extend the $L^p$ theory of sparse graph limits, which was introduced in a companion paper, by analyzing different notions of convergence. Under suitable restrictions on node weights, we prove the equivalence of metric convergence,…
Current quadratic smoothness energies for curved surfaces either exhibit distortions near the boundary due to zero Neumann boundary conditions, or they do not correctly account for intrinsic curvature, which leads to unnatural-looking…
In this paper we construct and analyze a two-well Hamiltonian on a 2D atomic lattice. The two wells of the Hamiltonian are prescribed by two rank-one connected martensitic twins, respectively. By constraining the deformed configurations to…

We introduce a general, analytical framework to express and to approximate partial differential equations (PDEs) numerically on graphs and networks of surfaces---generalized by the term hypergraphs. To this end, we consider PDEs on…
We investigate minimizers and critical points for scale-invariant tangent-point energies ${\rm TP}^{p,q}$ of closed curves. We show that a) minimizing sequences in ambient isotopy classes converge to locally critical embeddings in all but…
We consider the spherical limit of multi-matrix models on regular target graphs, for instance single or multiple Potts models, or lattices of arbitrary dimension. We show, to all orders in the low temperature expansion, that when the degree…
We review some recent results on the minimization of the energy associated to the nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equation on non-compact graphs. Starting from seminal results given by the author together with C. Cacciapuoti, D. Finco, and D. Noja…
Quantum geometry on a discrete set means a directed graph with a weight associated to each arrow defining the quantum metric. However, these `lattice spacing' weights do not have to be independent of the direction of the arrow. We use this…
The formalism of reduced quantum electrodynamics is generalized to the case of heterostructures composed of few atomically thick layers and the corresponding effective (2+1)-dimensional gauge theory is formulated. This dimensionally reduced…
