We update our previous determination of both the decay constant and the mass of the $D_s$ meson using the Highly Improved Staggered Quark formalism. We include additional results at two finer values of the lattice spacing along with…
In 1991, Shinichi Kotani proved a theorem giving a sufficient condition to conclude that a function $f(x)$ on ${\mathbb Z}^d$ decays like $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ for large $x$, assuming that its Fourier transform $\hat f(k)$ is such that…
We consider a long-range version of self-avoiding walk in dimension $d > 2(\alpha \wedge 2)$, where $d$ denotes dimension and $\alpha$ the power-law decay exponent of the coupling function. Under appropriate scaling we prove convergence to…
We consider the critical spread-out contact process in $\Zd$ with $d\geq 1$, whose infection range is denoted by $L\geq1$. The two-point function $\tau_t(x)$ is the probability that $x\in\Zd$ is infected at time $t$ by the infected…
Let $f$ be a Laurent polynomial in $d$ commuting variables with integer coefficients. Associated to $f$ is the principal algebraic $\mathbb{Z}^d$-action $\alpha_f$ on a compact subgroup $X_f$ of $\mathbb{T}^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$ determined by…
In this self-contained short note, we introduce the new definition of Good Ramanujan Expansion, say G.R.E., for a fixed arithmetic function $F$, building upon a good decay of its coefficients $G$; this, gains $\log-$powers w.r.t. the…
We compute the first three terms of the 1/d expansions for the growth constants and one-point functions of nearest-neighbour lattice trees and lattice (bond) animals on the integer lattice Zd, with rigorous error estimates. The proof uses…
We study the decay of connectivity of the subcritical excursion sets of a class of strongly correlated Gaussian fields. Our main result shows that, for smooth isotropic Gaussian fields whose covariance kernel $K(x)$ is regularly varying at…
The h+, h_A1 form factors for the semi-leptonic B->D and B->D* decays are evaluated in quenched lattice QCD with beta=6.2. The action and the operators are fully O(a) non-perturbatively improved. The Isgur-Wise function is evaluated and…
Gapped two-dimensional gauge theories with massless fermions generically have rich vacuum structures consisting of many degenerate vacua related by the action of topological line operators. The algebra of such operators has been used to…
We derive precise Ornstein-Zernike asymptotic formula for the decay of the two-point function in the general context of finite range Ising type models on Z^d. The proof relies in an essential way on the a-priori knowledge of the strict…
We study the average shifted convolution sum $$ B(H,N):= \frac{1}{H} \sum_{h \sim H} \sum_{n \sim N} A_{\pi_1}(n)\, A_{\pi_2}(n+h), $$ where $A_{\pi_i}(n)$ denotes the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke--Maass cusp form $\pi_i$ for…
This paper deals with some nonlinear problems which exponential and biexponential decays are involved in. A proof of the quasiconvexity of the error function in some of these problems of optimization is presented. This proof is restricted…
We establish generalized Gaussian bounds and local limit theorems with Gaussian-type error for the convolution powers of certain complex-valued functions on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. These global space-times estimates/error, which are sharp in…
We examine the percolation model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ by an approach involving lattice animals and their surface-area-to-volume ratio. For $\beta \in [0,2(d-1))$, let $f(\beta)$ be the asymptotic exponential rate in the number of edges of the…
Assuming that both a function and its Fourier transform are dominated by a Gaussian of large variance, it is shown that the Hermite coefficients of the function decay exponentially. A sharp estimate for the rate of exponential decay is…
Recent measurements of the branching fraction for D_s -> l nu disagree with the Standard Model by around 2sigma. In this case the key aspect of the Standard Model is the calculation of the decay constant, f_{D_s}, with lattice QCD. This…
We review and present some known results for non-linear functionals of Gaussian variables in the context of discrete Gaussian fields defined on the $d$ dimensional lattice. Our main result is a Central Limit Theorem in the spirit of the…
A new evaluation of the charged Higgs boson decay $H^+ -> W^+\gamma$ is presented in the context of the general two-Higgs doublet model. A nonlinear $R_\xi$-gauge which considerably simplifies the calculation is introduced and simple…
We show that the vertex-reinforced jump processes on a \(d\)-dimensional hierarchical lattice are recurrent for \(d < 2\) and transient for \(d > 2\). We also explore certain regimes when \(d = 2\). The proof of recurrence relies on an…
