In this work we study the local behavior of geodesics in the neighborhood of a curvature singularity contained in stationary and axially symmetric space-times. Apart from these properties, the metrics we shall focus on will also be required…

The algebraic approach to quantum physics emphasizes the role played by the structure of the algebra of observables and its relation to the space of states. An important feature of this point of view is that subsystems can be described by…

We consider an infinite dimensional diffusion on $T^{\mathbb Z^d}$, where $T$ is the circle, defined by an infinitesimal generator of the form $L=\sum_{i\in\mathbb Z^d}\left(\frac{a_i(\eta)}{2}\partial^2_i +b_i(\eta)\partial_i\right)$, with…

We study the ergodic properties of quantized ergodic maps of the torus. It is known that these satisfy quantum ergodicity: For almost all eigenstates, the expectation values of quantum observables converge to the classical phase-space…

Twisted hypercubes are generalizations of the Boolean hypercube, obtained by iteratively connecting two instances of a graph by a uniformly random perfect matching. Dudek et al. showed that when the two instances are independent, these…

We consider the Gaussian Entire Function (GEF) whose Taylor coefficients are independent complex-valued Gaussian variables, and the variance of the kth coefficient is 1/k!. This random Taylor series is distinguished by the invariance of its…

We investigate the number of nodal intersections of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the standard two-dimensional flat torus ("arithmetic random waves") with a fixed real-analytic reference curve with nonvanishing curvature. The…

The mathematical structure of the temporal gauge of QED is critically examined in both the alternative formulations characterized by either positivity or regularity of the Weyl algebra. The conflict between time translation invariance and…

We consider a stationary and ergodic random field $\{\omega(e) : e \in E_d\}$ that is parameterized by the edge set of the Euclidean lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d \geq 2$. The random variable $\omega(e)$, taking values in $[0, \infty)$ and…

In this paper we study aspects of the ergodic theory of the geodesic flow on a non-compact negatively curved manifold. It is a well known fact that every continuous potential on a compact metric space has a maximizing measure.…

The 4/5 and 2/3 laws of turbulence can emerge from a theory of 'engineered' random vector fields $\mathcal{X}_{i}(x,t) =X_{i}(x,t)+\tfrac{\theta}{\sqrt{d(d+2)}} X_{i}(x,t)\psi(x)$ existing within $\mathbf{D}\subset\mathbf{R}^{d}$. Here,…

We consider a dynamical process in a network which distributes all particles (tokens) located at a node among its neighbors, in a round-robin manner. We show that in the recurrent state of this dynamics (i.e., disregarding a polynomially…

Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with decreasing probability of order $n^{-\alpha}$, $0 < \alpha < 1/2$. We prove that, almost surely, for every measure-preserving system…

We prove regularity and stochastic homogenization results for certain degenerate elliptic equations in nondivergence form. The equation is required to be strictly elliptic, but the ellipticity may oscillate on the microscopic scale and is…

We study the problem of robustly estimating the edge density of Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs $G(n, d^\circ/n)$ when an adversary can arbitrarily add or remove edges incident to an $\eta$-fraction of the nodes. We develop the first…

In this article, we prove an extreme value theorem on the limit distribution of geodesics in a geometrically finite quotient of $\Gamma\backslash\mathcal{T}$ a locally finite tree. Main examples of such graphs are quotients of a Bruhat-Tits…

For the Schr\"odinger equation, $ (i \partial_t + \Delta) u = 0 $ on a torus, an arbitrary non-empty open set $ \Omega $ provides control and observability of the solution: $ \| u |_{t = 0} \|_{L^2 (\T^2)} \leq K_T \| u \|_{L^2 ([0,T]…

For a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, naively sampling the position of a random walk of at time $t$ requires work $\Omega(t)$. We desire local access algorithms supporting $\text{position}(G,s,t)$ queries, which return the position of a random…

We consider large deviations of the cover time of the discrete torus $(\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z})^d$, $d \geq 3$ by simple random walk. We prove a lower bound on the probability that the cover time is smaller than $\gamma\in (0,1)$ times its…
