We consider characterisations of unitary dilations and approximations of irreversible classical dynamical systems on a Hilbert space. In the commutative case, building on the work in [9], one can express well known approximants (e.g. Hille-…
A brief heuristic explanation is given of recent work with Juergen Fuchs, Beatriz Gato-Rivera and Christoph Schweigert on the construction of modular invariant partition functions from Galois symmetry in conformal field theory. A…
Following Gromov, a Riemannian manifold is called area-extremal if any modification that increases scalar curvature must decrease the area of some tangent 2-plane. We prove that large classes of compact 4-manifolds, with or without…
Theoretical equivalence and duality are two closely related notions: but their interconnection has so far not been well understood. In this paper I explicate the contribution of a recent schema for duality to discussions of theoretical…
We explore the space of extremal functionals in the conformal bootstrap. By recasting the bootstrap problem as a set of non-linear equations parameterized by the CFT data, we find an efficient algorithm for converging to the extremal…
In this paper we study the behaviour of modules over finite dimensional algebras whose endomorphism algebra is a division ring. We show that there are finitely many such modules in the module category of an algebra if and only if the length…
Imagine that measurements are made at times $t_0$ and $t_1$ of the trajectory of a physical system whose governing laws are given approximately by a class ${\cal A}$ of so-called {\em prior vector fields}. Because the physical laws are not…
We solve two continuous extremal problems on the classes of monotone functions: in the first problem we find extremal values for a line integral of a coordinate-wise monotone function of two variables from a rearrange\-ment-invariant class…
In this paper, maximum principles for Euclidean and hyperbolic discrete conformal structures on polyhedral surfaces are established. These maximum principles unify and generalize the maximum principles for vertex scalings and different…
Inspired by the all-important conformal invariance of harmonic maps on two-dimensional domains, this article studies the relationship between biharmonicity and conformality. We first give a characterization of biharmonic morphisms,…
We define a class of maps between holomorphically embedded null curves which generalize conformal transformations, and can be defined in any complex dimension. In four dimensions, we can also define a similar map between self-dual surfaces,…
We identify a class of hyperbolic transcendental entire maps and we prove that some of its elements generate a class of potentials for which exhibit a conformal and invariant probability Gibbs measure. The methods and techniques from the…
Let a be an ideal of a commutative Noetherian ring R with identity. We study finitely generated R-modules M whose a-finiteness and a-cohomological dimensions are equal. In particular, we examine relative analogues of quasi-Buchsbaum,…
The systematic study of Tur\'an-type extremal problems for edge-ordered graphs was initiated by Gerbner et al. arXiv:2001.00849. They conjectured that the extremal functions of edge-ordered forests of order chromatic number 2 are…
We introduce the extremal range, a local statistic for studying the spatial extent of extreme events in random fields on $\mathbb{R}^d$. Conditioned on exceedance of a high threshold at a location $s$, the extremal range at $s$ is the…
In this note we revisit the notion of conformal barycenter of a measure on $\SS^n$ as defined by Douady and Earle in Acta Math. Vol 157, 1986. The aim is to extend rational maps from the Riemann sphere $\Cbar\isom\SS^2$ to the (hyperbolic)…
We show that on most of the hyperbolic simply connected domains the weighted bounded rational approximation in a natural sup norm is possible only for a very sparse set of holomorphic functions (in contrast to integral approximation). The…
We introduce a similarity relation between submodules of a module $M$ over a ring $R$, extending the classical notion of similarity for right ideals. Focusing on (faithfully) projective modules, we establish a sharp lower bound for the…
We study infinitesimal conformal deformations of a triangulated surface in Euclidean space and investigate the change in its extrinsic geometry. A deformation of vertices is conformal if it preserves length cross-ratios. On one hand,…
Considered here is one quite general problem about description of extremal configurations maximizing the product of inner radii non-overlapping domains.
