The paper continues the discussion of symplectic aspects of Picard-Lefschetz theory begun in "Vanishing cycles and mutation" (this archive). There we explained how to associate to a suitable fibration over a two-dimensional disc a…
For a class of quantized open chaotic systems satisfying a natural dynamical assumption, we show that the study of the resolvent, and hence of scattering and resonances, can be reduced to the study of a family of open quantum maps, that is…
We give piecewise affine maps on the unit cube whose symbolic representation is the Dyck shift. This leads to a different way of verifying the chaotic nature of this system, including the computation of entropy.
We study a model of colored multiwebs, which generalizes the dimer model to allow each vertex to be adjacent to \(n_v\) edges. These objects can be formulated as a random tiling of a graph with partial dimer covers. We examine the case of a…
We develop the theory of linear evolution equations associated with the adjacency matrix of a graph, focusing in particular on infinite graphs of two kinds: uniformly locally finite graphs as well as locally finite line graphs. We discuss…
This is the second paper in our series of papers dedicated to the study of maps on the mirror Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra. The first paper is dedicated to the study of unary maps and the present paper is dedicated to the study of binary…
We present a unified approach to the processes of inversion and duality for quasilinear and $1$-quasilinear maps; in particular, for centralizers and differentials generated by interpolation methods.
We study a class of duality transformations in generalised Z(2) gauge theories and Ising models on two- and three-dimensional compact lattices. The theories are interpreted algebraically in terms of the structure constants of a…
The purpose of this paper is to give two applications of Fourier transforms and generic vanishing theorems: - we give a cohomological characterization of principal polarizations - we prove that if $X$ an abelian variety and $\Theta $ a…
We consider a planar dynamical system generated by two stable linear vector fields with distinct fixed points and random switching between them. We characterize singularities of the invariant density in terms of the switching rates and…
We recast the phenomenon of duality cascades in terms of the Cartan matrix associated to the quiver gauge theories appearing in the cascade. In this language, Seiberg dualities for the different gauge factors correspond to Weyl reflections.…
The paper deals with continuous and compact mappings generated by the Fourier transform between distinguished function spaces on $\mathbb{R}^n$. The degree of compactness will be measured in terms of related entropy numbers. We are more…
In this article, we consider several local conditions under which linear mappings on algebras act like Lie n-centralizers and we study these linear mappings, Lie n-centralizers and n-commuting linear maps.
In this paper we are concerned with the existence of invariant curves of planar twist mappings which are almost periodic in a spatial variable. As an application of this result to differential equations we will discuss the existence of…
We give complete geometric invariants of cobordisms of fold maps with oriented singular set and cobordisms of even codimensional fold maps. These invariants are given in terms of cobordisms of stably framed manifolds and cobordisms of…
We show that nonabelian duality is not a symmetry of a conformal field theory, but rather a symmetry between different theories. We expose a nonlocal symmetry of nonabelian dual theories. We show how, in the case with vanishing isotropy, it…
We consider models of block-weighted random planar maps in which possibly decorated maps are decomposed canonically into blocks, each block receiving the weight $u$. These maps present a transition at some critical value $u=u_{cr}$ above…
The phenomenology of a system of two coupled quadratic maps is studied both analytically and numerically. Conditions for synchronization are given and the bifurcations of periodic orbits from this regime are identified. In addition, we show…
We investigate the structure of the centralizer and the normalizer of a local analytic or formal differential system at a nondegenerate stationary point, using the theory of Poincar\'e-Dulac normal forms. Our main results are concerned with…
Coincidences of maps between smooth manifolds are studied via a geometric approach which involves (nonstabilized) normal bordism theory and pathspaces.
