We prove that the phase transition for the Gaussian free field (GFF) is sharp. In comparison to a previous argument due to Rodriguez in 2017 which characterized a $0-1$ law for the Massive Gaussian Free Field by analyzing crossing…
We prove that for the Gaussian free field (GFF) on the metric graph of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ (for all $d\ge 3$ except the critical dimension $d_c=6$), with uniformly positive probability there exist two distinct sign clusters of diameter at least…
We point out a new simple way to couple the Gaussian Free Field (GFF) with free boundary conditions in a two-dimensional domain with the GFF with zero boundary conditions in the same domain: Starting from the latter, one just has to sample…
We further investigate properties of the Gaussian free field (GFF) on the metric graph associated to a discrete weighted graph (where the edges of the latter are replaced by continuous line-segments of appropriate length) that has been…
We derive a "switching identity" that can be stated for critical Brownian loop-soups or for the Gaussian free field on a cable graph: It basically says that at the level of cluster configurations and at the more general level of the…
We investigate level sets of the Gaussian free field on continuous transient metric graphs $\tilde{\mathcal G}$ and study the capacity of its level set clusters. We prove, without any further assumption on the base graph $\mathcal{G}$, that…
We compare level-set percolation for Gaussian free fields (GFFs) defined on a rectangular subset of $\delta \mathbb{Z}^2$ to level-set percolation for GFFs defined on the corresponding metric graph as the mesh size $\delta$ goes to 0. In…
We consider metric graph Gaussian free field (GFF) defined on polygons of $\delta\mathbb{Z}^2$ with alternating boundary data. The crossing probabilities for level-set percolation of metric graph GFF have scaling limits. When the boundary…
Consider a Brownian loop soup $\mathcal{L}_D^\theta$ with subcritical intensity $\theta \in (0,1/2]$ in some 2D bounded simply connected domain. We define and study the properties of a conformally invariant field $h_\theta$ naturally…
Motivated by numerous questions in random geometry, given a smooth manifold $M$, we approach a systematic study of the differential topology of Gaussian random fields (GRF) $X:M\to \mathbb{R}^k$, that we interpret as random variables with…
This paper is second in the series, following Pranav et al. (2019), focused on the characterization of geometric and topological properties of 3D Gaussian random fields. We focus on the formalism of persistent homology, the mainstay of…
We consider Gaussian fields of real symmetric, complex Hermitian or quaternionic Hermitian matrices over an electrical network, and describe how the isomorphisms between these fields and random walks give rise to topological expansions…
We consider the general free field theory such that system of equations of motion includes a subsystem with a special property. If the subsystem is considered by itself, it would be a topological field theory having no local degrees of…
For the Gaussian free field on the metric graph of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\ge 3$), we consider the heterochromatic two-arm probability, i.e., the probability that two points $v$ and $v'$ are contained in distinct clusters of opposite signs with…
The effect of metallic nano-particles (MNPs) on the electrostatic potential of a disordered 2D dielectric media is considered. The disorder in the media is assumed to be white-noise Coulomb impurities with normal distribution. To realize…
We introduce topological gauge fields as nontrivial field configurations enforced by topological currents. These fields crucially determine the form of statistical gauge fields that couple to matter and transmute their statistics. We…
Symmetries corresponding to local transformations of the fundamental fields that leave the action invariant give rise to (invertible) topological defects, which obey group-like fusion rules. One can construct more general (codimension-one)…
We study the one-arm probability in the level-set percolation of the discrete and metric-graph Gaussian free field (GFF) defined on a box with Dirichlet boundary conditions. For the metric-graph case, we establish asymptotic estimates on…
The gauged sigma-model argument that string backgrounds related by T-dual give equivalent quantum theories is revisited, taking careful account of global considerations. The topological obstructions to gauging sigma-models give rise to…
We find necessary and sufficient conditions for gauge invariance of the action of Double Field Theory (DFT) as well as closure of the algebra of gauge symmetries. The so-called weak and strong constraints are sufficient to satisfy them, but…
