We propose a random matrix theory for QCD in three dimensions with a Chern-Simons term at level $k$ which spontaneously breaks the flavor symmetry according to U($2N_{\rm f}$) $\to $ U($N_{\rm f}+k$)$\times$U($N_{\rm f}-k$). This random…

As was shown by Leutwyler and Smilga, the fact that chiral symmetry is broken and the existence of a effective finite volume partition function leads to an infinite number of sum rules for the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator in QCD. In…

We investigate spectral properties of quantum graphs in the form of a periodic chain of rings with a connecting link between each adjacent pair, assuming that wave functions at the vertices are matched through conditions manifestly…

It is shown that a random $(0,1)$ matrix whose rows are independent random vectors of exactly $n/2$ zero components is non-singular with probability $1-O(n^{-C})$ for any $C>0$. The proof uses a non-standard inverse-type Littlewood-Offord…

We derive the mean eigenvalue density for symmetric Gaussian random N x N matrices in the limit of large N, with a constraint implying that the row sum of matrix elements should vanish. The result is shown to be equivalent to a result found…

According to quantum mechanics chiral molecules, that is molecules that rotate the polarization of light, should not exist. The simplest molecules which can be chiral have four or more atoms with two arrangements of minimal potential energy…

We demonstrate that in metals, both normal and superconducting, orbital currents present in the ground state when time reversal symmetry (TRS) is broken, generate spin chirality. Nonzero chirality can emerge in the absence of any…

Due to the lack of the translational symmetry, calculating the energy spectrum of an incommensurate system has always been a theoretical challenge. Here, we propose a natural approach to generalize the energy band theory to the…

We propose models of twisted multilayer graphene that exhibit exactly flat Bloch bands with arbitrary Chern numbers and ideal band geometries. The models are constructed by twisting two sheets of Bernal-stacked multiple graphene layers with…

We consider the spectral statistics of large random band matrices on mesoscopic energy scales. We show that the two-point correlation function of the local eigenvalue density exhibits a universal power law behaviour that differs from the…

We argue that the spectrum of the QCD Dirac operator near zero virtuality can be described by random matrix theory. As in the case of classical random matrix ensembles of Dyson we have three distinct classes: the chiral orthogonal ensemble…

In these two lectures given at the 1997 Zakopane workshop on "New Developments in Quantum Field Theory" we review recent results on universal fluctuations in QCD Dirac spectra. We start the first lecture with a review of some general…

We prove almost sure global existence and scattering for the energy-critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with randomized spherically symmetric initial data in $H^s(\mathbb{R}^4)$ with $\frac56<s<1$. We were inspired to consider this…

This paper is concerned with zero currents of random section of a Hermitian line bundle $E$ over a compact oriented Riemannian manifold. Given a metric connection, heat flow yields a natural 1-parameter family of probability measures on the…

We discuss recent results on fluctuations of conserved charges, and their approach to the hadron resonance gas at temperatures below the chiral crossover (Tc) as well as to a gas of free quarks at very high temperatures. We will focus on…

The positive parity doublet bands based on the $\pi h_{11/2}\otimes\nu h_{11/2}$ configuration in $^{126}$Cs have been investigated in the two quasi-particles coupled with a triaxial rotor model. The energy spectra $E(I)$, energy staggering…

We conjecture that in the chiral limit of QCD the spectrum of hadrons is comprised of decoupled, reducible chiral multiplets. A simple rule is developed which identifies the chiral representations filled out by the ground-state hadrons. Our…

The statistical properties of the fractional part of the random energy of a spectral component of black-body radiation have been analysed in the frame of classical Kolmogorovian probability theory. Besides the integer part of the energy…

Dyson demonstrated an equivalence between infinite-range Coulomb gas models and classical random matrix ensembles for study of eigenvalue statistics. We introduce finite-range Coulomb gas (FRCG) models via a Brownian matrix process, and…

We model the effects of a large number of zero and near-zero modes in the QCD partition function by using sparse chiral matrix models with an emphasis on the quenched topological susceptibility in the choice of the measure. At finite…
