Let $P$ be a convex polygon in ${\mathbb C}$ and let $\Delta_{D, P}$ be the operator of the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the Lapalcian $\Delta=-4\partial_z\partial_{\bar z}$ in $P$. We derive a variational formula for the logarithm…
The Mallows model on $S_n$ is a probability distribution on permutations, $q^{d(\pi,e)}/P_n(q)$, where $d(\pi,e)$ is the distance between $\pi$ and the identity element, relative to the Coxeter generators. Equivalently, it is the number of…

We construct a $Q$-matrix for the eight-vertex model at roots of unity for crossing parameter $\eta=2mK/L$ with odd $L$, a case for which the existing constructions do not work. The new $Q$-matrix $\Q$ depends as usual on the spectral…
The six-vertex model, or the square ice model, with domain wall boundary conditions (DWBC) has been introduced and solved for finite $n$ by Korepin and Izergin. The solution is based on the Yang-Baxter equations and it represents the free…

We consider in this paper an area functional defined on submanifolds of fixed degree immersed into a graded manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric. Since the expression of this area depends on the degree, not all variations are…

One of the reasons for the success of the finite element method is its versatility to deal with different types of geometries. This is particularly true of problems posed in curved domains of arbitrary shape. In the case of second order…
