We construct a new infinite-dimensional family of homogeneous quasimorphisms on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the two-sphere. Moreover, for any constant $K$ less than the total area of the sphere, we produce unbounded…

Every topological group $G$ has up to isomorphism a unique minimal $G$-flow that maps onto every minimal $G$-flow, the universal minimal flow $M(G).$ We show that if $G$ has a compact normal subgroup $K$ that acts freely on $M(G)$ and there…
A finite volume allows tunnelling between degenerate vacua in Quantum Field Theory, and leads to remarkable energetic features, arising from the competition of different saddle points in the partition function. We describe this competition…

We prove that the flow generated by any interval map with zero topological entropy is minimally mean-attractable (MMA) and minimally mean-L-stable (MMLS). One of the consequences is that any oscillating sequence is linearly disjoint with…
Given a compact quantum metric space (A, L), we prove that the domain of L coincides with A if and only if A is finite dimensional. We then show how one can explicitly build many quantum metrics with distinct domains on infinite-dimensional…
We establish that boundary degrees of freedom associated with a generic co-dimension one null surface in $D$ dimensional pure Einstein gravity naturally admit a thermodynamical description. We expect the $\textit{null surface…
We apply the flow equation method for studying the fermion systems where pairing interactions can either trigger the BCS instability with the symmetry breaking manifested by the off-diagonal order parameter or lead to the gaped single…
