We use recent results that localized excitations in nonlinear Hamiltonian lattices can be viewed and described as multiple-frequency excitations. Their dynamics in phase space takes place on tori of corresponding dimension. For a…

In this paper we give a survey of what is currently known about Diophantine exponents of lattices and propose several problems.
We look at a class of transcendental real numbers xi which, together with their square, satisfy some extremal property of simultaneous approximation by rational numbers with the same denominator. We give a sufficient condition for such a…
By a 1997 result of R. Freese, an $n$-element lattice has at most $2^{n-1}$ congruences. This motivates us to define the congruence density cd$(L)$ of a finite $n$-element lattice as $|$Con$(L)|/2^{n-1}$, where $|$Con$(L)|$ is the number of…
Combined with Laughlin's argument on the quantized Hall conductivity, Lieb-Schultz-Mattis argument is extended to quantum many-particle systems (including quantum spin systems) with a conserved particle number, on a periodic lattice in…
In this paper we consider the iteration of infinitely many signed exponentials with the same base but the signs may vary. We show that for every base in an explicit interval this iteration converges for any sequence of signs and all the…
Let $L$ be an $n$-element finite lattice. We prove that if $L$ has strictly more than $2^{n-5}$ congruences, then $L$ is planar. This result is sharp, since for each natural number $n\geq 8$, there exists a non-planar lattice with exactly…
For a certain class of two-dimensional lattices, lattice-dual pairs are shown to have the same bond percolation critical exponents. A computational proof is given for the martini lattice and its dual to illustrate the method. The result is…
It is widely believed that the critical properties of several planar lattice models, like the Eight Vertex or the Ashkin-Teller models, are well described by an effective Quantum Field Theory obtained as formal scaling limit. On the basis…
In this short note we give a construction of an infinite series of Delone simplices whose relative volume grows super-exponentially with their dimension. This dramatically improves the previous best lower bound, which was linear.
We state the formula for the critical number of vertices of a convex lattice polygon that guarantees that the polygon contains at least one point of a given sublattice and give a partial proof of the formula. We show that the proof can be…
We prove some theorems which give sufficient conditions for the existence of prime numbers among the terms of a sequence which has pairwise relatively prime terms.
We prove that a tolerance relation of a lattice is a homomorphic image of a congruence relation.
In the first paper of this series, we constructed a family of lattices in dimensions 2^{n+1} for positive integers n, and proved that the associated lattice packings of spheres equal or exceed the previous records for several values of n.…
Function field lattices are an interesting example of algebraically constructed lattices. Their minimum distance is bounded below by a function of the gonality of the underlying function field. Known explicit examples--coming mostly from…
A coding lattice $\Lambda_c$ and a shaping lattice $\Lambda_s$ forms a nested lattice code $\mathcal{C}$ if $\Lambda_s \subseteq \Lambda_c$. Under some conditions, $\mathcal{C}$ is a finite cyclic group formed by rectangular encoding. This…
Large cardinals arising from the existence of arbitrarily long end elementary extension chains over models of set theory are studied here. In particular, we show that the large cardinals obtained that way (`Unfoldable cardinals') behave as…
Recently there was proposeda hypothesis about existence of the two large extradimensions. This hypothesis demands, e.g., modification of Newton law at submilimeter scale. In this brief report we show that this hypothesis cannot be correct…
We make some comments about the results we obtained in Phys. Rev. Lett. 86,3392(2001), and in Phys. Rev. Lett.87, 177206 (2001), and show that the conclusion of a recent paper [cond-mat/0409495] leveling some criticism on our results is, in…
