We propose a geometrical interpretation for the discrete torsion appearing in the algebraic formulation of quotients of WZW models by discrete abelian subgroups. Part of the discrete torsion corresponds to the choice of action of the…
We generalize and extend the ideas in a recent paper of Chiarelli, Hatami and Saks to prove new bounds on the number of relevant variables for boolean functions in terms of a variety of complexity measures. Our approach unifies and refines…
The main aim of this work is to study important local Banach space constants for Boolean cube function spaces. Specifically, we focus on $\mathcal{B}_{\mathcal{S}}^N$, the finite-dimensional Banach space of all real-valued functions defined…
Working in doubling metric spaces, we examine the connections between different dimensions, Whitney covers, and geometrical properties of tubular neighborhoods. In the Euclidean space, we relate these concepts to the behavior of the surface…
Graphs are topological spaces that include broader objects than discretized manifolds, making them interesting playgrounds for the study of quantum phases not realized by symmetry breaking. In particular they are known to support anyons of…
We pose some open problems related to boundedness of real-valued functions on balleans and coarse spaces. Also we prove that the Bergman property of groups is a coarse invariant. A special attention is payed to balleans on groups.
The construction of a consistent theory of quantum gravity is a problem in theoretical physics that has so far defied all attempts at resolution. One ansatz to try to obtain a non-trivial quantum theory proceeds via a discretization of…
Consider a Boolean function f on the n-dimensional hypercube, and a set of variables (indexed by) $S \subset \{1,2,\ldots,n\}.$ The coalition influence of the variables S on a function f is the probability that after a random assignment of…
The Cahill-Glauber approach for quantum mechanics on phase-space is extended to the finite dimensional case through the use of discrete coherent states. All properties and features of the continuous formalism are appropriately generalized.…
We further elaborate on a phase-space picture for a system of $N$ qubits and explore the structures compatible with the notion of unbiasedness. These consist of bundles of discrete curves satisfying certain additional properties and…
We introduce a new definition of speculative bubbles in discrete-time models based on the discounted stock price losing mass at some finite drop-down under an equivalent martingale measure. We provide equivalent probabilistic…
We review the Dudley integral for the Belyaev dichotomy applied to Gaussian processes on spheres, and discuss the approximate (or restricted) continuity of paths in the discontinuous case. We discuss also the spatio-temporal case, of sphere…
Quantum systems with constraints are often considered in modern theoretical physcics. All realistic field models based on the idea of gauge symmetry are of this type. A partial case of constraints being linear in coordinate and momenta…
We study noisy computation in randomly generated k-ary Boolean formulas. We establish bounds on the noise level above which the results of computation by random formulas are not reliable. This bound is saturated by formulas constructed from…
The estimate in Bullen's inequality will be extended for continuous functions using the second order modulus of smoothness. A different form of this inequality will be given in terms of the least concave majorant. Also, the composite case…
We prove various results in infinite-dimensional differential calculus which relate differentiability properties of functions and associated operator-valued functions (e.g., differentials). The results are applied in two areas: 1. in the…
In this paper, we focus on the links between Boolean function theory and quantum computing. In particular, we study the notion of what we call fully-balanced functions and analyse the Fourier--Hadamard and Walsh supports of those functions…
We study the deterministic query complexity of Boolean functions on slices of the hypercube. The $k^{th}$ slice $\binom{[n]}{k}$ of the hypercube $\{0,1\}^n$ is the set of all $n$-bit strings with Hamming weight $k$. We show that there…

We explore the effect of two-dimensional position-space non-commutativity on the bipartite entanglement of continuous variable systems. We first extend the standard symplectic framework for studying entanglement of Gaussian states of…
