We study multiscalar theories with $\text{O}(N) \times \text{O}(2)$ symmetry. These models have a stable fixed point in $d$ dimensions if $N$ is greater than some critical value $N_c(d)$. Previous estimates of this critical value from…
The presence of nearby conformal field theories (CFTs) hidden in the complex plane of the tuning parameter was recently proposed as an elegant explanation for the ubiquity of "weakly first-order" transitions in condensed matter and…
We use the Chern-Simons action for a SO(3)-connection for the description of point disclinations in the geometric theory of defects. The most general spherically symmetric SO(3)-connection with zero curvature is found. The corresponding…
In three-dimensional O(N) models, we investigate the low-momentum behavior of the two-point Green's function G(x) in the critical region of the symmetric phase. We consider physical systems whose criticality is characterized by a a…
We study fixed-points of scalar fields that transform in the bifundamental representation of $O(N)\times O(M)$ in $3-\epsilon$ dimensions, generalizing the classic tricritical sextic vector model. In the limit where $N$ is large but $M$ is…
We analyze the effect of adding quenched disorder along a defect line in the 2D conformal minimal models using replicas. The disorder is realized by a random applied magnetic field in the Ising model, by fluctuations in the ferromagnetic…

We study the universality of superconcentration for the free energy in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model. In arXiv:0907.3381, Chatterjee showed that when the system consists of $N$ spins and Gaussian disorders, the variance of this…
$O(n) \times O(m)$ symmetric Landau-Ginzburg models in $d=3$ dimension possess a rich structure of the renormalization group and its understanding offers a theoretical prediction of the phase diagram in frustrated spin models with…
We prove a global uniqueness result for the Calder\'{o}n inverse problem for a general quasilinear isotropic conductivity equation on a bounded open set with smooth boundary in dimension $n\ge 3$. Performing higher order linearizations of…
In this paper, we discuss singular Neumann boundary problem for a class of nonlinear parabolic equations in one space dimension. Our boundary problem describes motion of a planar curve sliding along the boundary with a zero contact angle,…
The class of effectively closed infinite-genus surfaces, defining the completion of the domain of string perturbation theory, can be included in the category $O_G$, which is characterized by the vanishing capacity of the ideal boundary. The…
We introduce a geometric generalization of the O(N)-field theory that describes N-colored membranes with arbitrary dimension D. As the O(N)-model reduces in the limit N->0 to self-avoiding polymers, the N-colored manifold model leads to…
Given $\alpha \in (0, \infty)$ and $r \in (0, \infty)$, let ${\cal D}_{r, \alpha}$ be the disc of radius $r$ in the hyperbolic plane having curvature $-\alpha^2$. Consider the Poisson point process having uniform intensity density on ${\cal…
We reformulate the O(N) sigma model as a loop model whose configurations are the all-order strong coupling graphs of the original model. The loop configurations are represented by a pointer list in the computer and a Monte Carlo update…
Fixed-point equations in the functional renormalization group approach are integrated from large to vanishing field, where an asymptotic potential in the limit of large field is implemented as initial conditions. This approach allows us to…
We first describe a reduction from the problem of lower-bounding the number of distinct distances determined by a set $S$ of $s$ points in the plane to an incidence problem between points and a certain class of helices (or parabolas) in…
We illustrate how boundary states are recovered when going from a noncommutative manifold to a commutative one with a boundary. Our example is the noncommutative plane with a defect, whose commutative limit was found to be a punctured plane…
We characterise $n$th order ODEs for which the space of solutions $M$ is equipped with a particular paraconformal structure in the sense of \cite{BE}, that is a splitting of the tangent bundle as a symmetric tensor product of rank-two…
