For a planar bipartite graph $\mathcal G$ equipped with a $\mathrm{SL}_n$-local system, we show that the determinant of the associated Kasteleyn matrix counts "$n$-multiwebs" (generalizations of $n$-webs) in $\mathcal G$, weighted by their…
We define $2n$-multiwebs on planar graphs and discuss their relation with $\mathrm{Sp}(2n)$-webs. On a planar graph with a symplectic local system we define a matrix whose Pfaffian is the sum of traces of $2n$-multiwebs. As application we…
Let $G$ be a bipartite planar graph with edges directed from black to white. For each vertex $v$ let $n_v$ be a positive integer. A multiweb in $G$ is a multigraph with multiplicity $n_v$ at vertex $v$. A connection is a choice of linear…
We compute connection probabilities for reduced $3$-webs in the triple-dimer model on circular planar graphs using the boundary measurement matrix (reduced Kasteleyn matrix). As one application we compute several "$\text{SL}_3$…
In a previous article, we develop a continuous version of Kasteleyn theory to study the bead model on the torus. These are the point processes on the semi-discrete torus $\mathbb{T}_n := [0,1) \times \{0,1,\ldots,n-1\}$ (thought of as $n$…
Maximal minors of Kasteleyn sign matrices on planar bipartite graphs in the disk count dimer configurations with prescribed boundary conditions, and the weighted version of such matrices provides a natural parametrization of the totally…
This is the first in a series of papers constructing geometric models of twisted differential K-theory. In this paper we construct a model of even twisted differential K-theory when the underlying topological twist represents a torsion…
We introduce a general model of dimer coverings of certain plane bipartite graphs, which we call rail yard graphs (RYG). The transfer matrices used to compute the partition function are shown to be isomorphic to certain operators arising in…
Linde, Moore, and Nordahl introduced a generalisation of the honeycomb dimer model to higher dimensions. The purpose of this article is to describe a number of structural properties of this generalised model. First, it is shown that the…
We determine the twistor deformation of rank one local systems on compact Kaehler manifolds which correspond to smooth twistor modules of rank one in the sense of C. Sabbah. Our proof is rather elementary, and uses a natural description of…
On a finite weighted graph, the dimer model is a probability measure on its dimer covers, that assigns to any cover a probability proportional to the product of the weights of its edges. For planar bipartite graphs, dimer correlations are…
We study a twisted version of Fraser, Lam, and Le's higher boundary measurement map, using face weights instead of edge weights, thereby providing Laurent polynomial expansions, in Pl\"ucker coordinates, for twisted web immanants for…
In this paper, we extend work of the first author on a crystal structure on rigged configurations of simply-laced type to all non-exceptional affine types using the technology of virtual rigged configurations and crystals. Under the…
We construct an infinite family of homology theories of framed links in thickened surfaces, as well as a homology theory whose graded Euler characteristic is exactly the Kauffman bracket of the link in the surface. Both theories are based…
The linear Reissner-Mindlin shell theory is reformulated in the frame of the tangential differential calculus (TDC) using a global Cartesian coordinate system. The rotation of the normal vector is modelled with a difference vector approach.…
This is an expositoray article on the topological string partition function promoting an extension of the partition function of open Gromov-Witten theory of CY 3-folds defined by the trace of vertex operators. We also give a brief survey of…
We show that the diameter of the image of the skinning map on the deformation space of an acylindrical reflection group is bounded by a constant depending only on the topological complexity of the components of its boundary, answering a…
The following problem, which stems from the ``flux phase'' problem in condensed matter physics, is analyzed and extended here: One is given a planar graph (or lattice) with prescribed vertices, edges and a weight $\vert t_{xy}\vert$ on each…
We study the partition function of both Close-Packed Dimers and the Critical Ising Model on a square lattice embedded on a genus two surface. Using numerical and analytical methods we show that the determinants of the Kasteleyn adjacency…
In this paper, we simplify and generalize formulas for the expansion of rank 2 cluster variables. In particular, we prove an equivalent, but simpler, description of the colored Dyck subpaths framework introduced by Lee and Schiffler. We…
