We consider the Jacobi matrix generated by a balanced measure of hyperbolic polynomial map. The conjecture of Bellissard says that this matrix should have an extremely strong periodicity property. We show how this conjecture is related to a…
We consider a gravitational perturbation of the Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity with an arbitrary dilaton potential and study the condition under which the quadratic action can be seen as a $T\bar{T}$-deformation of the matter action. As a…
We demonstrate that the extension of the space-time metric to incorporate two anticommuting property coordinates automatically leads to the unification of gravity with nonabelian gauge theory, as well as producing a cosmological term.
We study the correlation functions of local operators in unitary $\textrm{T}\bar{\textrm{T}}$-deformed field theories, using their formulation in terms of Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. The position of the operators is defined using the…
Hamilton-Jacobi theory provides a natural starting point for a covariant description of the gravitational field. Using a spatial gradient expansion, one may solve for the phase of the wavefunction by using a line-integral in superspace.…
We look at the generalisation of topologically massive gravity (TMG) to higher spins, specifically spin-3. We find a special "chiral" point for the spin-three, analogous to the spin-two example, which actually coincides with the usual…
We consider two natural topologies on the space $S(X\times Y,Z)$ of all separately continuous functions defined on the product of two topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ and ranged into a topological or metric space $X$. These topologies are the…
Double pants decompositions were introduced in our paper "Double pants decompositions of 2-surfaces" (Mosc. Math. J. 11 (2011), no. 2, 231-258, arXiv:1005.0073), together with a flip-twist groupoid acting on these decompositions. It was…
We present an explicit formula for the topology and H-flux of the T-dual of a general type II compactification, significantly generalizing earlier results. Our results apply to T-dualities with respect to any circle action on spacetime. As…
By applying the Faddeev-Jackiw symplectic approach we systematically show that both the local gauge symmetry and the constraint structure of topologically massive gravity with a cosmological constant $\Lambda$, elegantly encoded in the…
Recently, Saad, Shenker and Stanford showed how to define the genus expansion of Jackiw-Teitelboim quantum gravity in terms of a double-scaled Hermitian matrix model. However, the model's non-perturbative sector has fatal instabilities at…
We present topological characterization of classical stochastic processes described by discrete-time Markov chains on lattices. We point out that point-gap topology of stochastic matrices entails two distinct physical consequences that…
Using the approach based on the Bogoliubov inequality for free energy, we have studied the magnetic properties of the spin-3/2 Blume-Capel quantum model in the presence of the random transverse single-ion anisotropy (RTSIA). By analyzis of…
We classify and study defects in 2d Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. We show these are holographically described by a deformation of the Schwarzian theory where the reparametrization mode is integrated over different coadjoint orbits of the…
Universal thermal data in conformal field theory (CFT) offer a valuable means for characterizing and classifying criticality. With improved tensor network techniques, we investigate the universal thermodynamics on a nonorientable minimal…
We derive explicit expressions for a specific subclass of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity bilocal correlators, corresponding to degenerate Virasoro representations. On the disk, these degenerate correlators are structurally simple, and they…
Hamilton-Jacobi formalism is used to study 2D-gravity and its SL(2, R) hidden symmetry. If the contribution of the surface term is considered the obtained results coincide with those given by the Dirac and Faddeev-Jackiw approaches.
Riemann surfaces with nodes can be described by introducing simple composite operators in matrix models. In the case of the Kontsevich model, it is sufficient to add the quadratic, but ``non-propagating'', term (tr[X])^2 to the Lagrangian.…
We describe gauge theories which allow to retrieve a large class of gravitational theories, including, MacDowell-Mansouri gravity and its topological extension to Loop Quantum Gravity via the Pontrjagin characteristic class involving the…
