We define zeta functions for the adjoint action of GL(n) on its Lie algebra and study their analytic properties. For n<4 we are able to fully analyse these functions, and recover the Shintani zeta function for the prehomogeneous vector…
The lowest zeros of the lattice partition function for non-compact QED are found in the complex fermion mass plane on $6^4$, $8^4$ and $10^4$ lattices at intermediate values of the coupling. The scaling of the low lying zeros with lattice…
For a family of spherical minimal catenoids C_a in the hyperbolic 3-space, there exist two constants 0<a_c<a_l such that the following are true: (1) C_a is an unstable minimal surface with index one if a<a_c, (2) C_a is a stable minimal…
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet series that enumerates proper equivalence classes of full-rank sublattices of a given quadratic lattice in a hyperbolic plane -- that is, a nondegenerate isotropic quadratic space of dimension $2$. We…
We give short and simple proofs of what seem to be folklore results: * the maximum cardinality of the intersection of a lattice cube with an affine subspace; * the minimum number of affine subspaces needed to cover a lattice cube.
We count primitive lattices of rank $d$ inside $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ as their covolume tends to infinity, with respect to certain parameters of such lattices. These parameters include, for example, the subsapce that a lattice spans, namely its…
In this article, we show that if G is a simply connected Chevalley group of either classical type of rank bigger than 1 or type E6, and q > 9 is a power of a prime number p > 5, then G = G(F_q((1/t))), up to an automorphism, has a unique…
We prove minimal entropy rigidity for complete, finite volume manifolds locally isometric to a product of rank one symmetric spaces of dimension at least 3: the locally symmetric metric uniquely minimizes (normalized) entropy among all…
We find tight estimates for the minimum number of proper subspaces needed to cover all lattice points in an n-dimensional convex body symmetric about the origin. We also find the order of magnitude of the number of (n-1)-dimensional…
We consider first-passage percolation on the $d$ dimensional cubic lattice for $d \geq 2$; that is, we assign independently to each edge $e$ a nonnegative random weight $t_e$ with a common distribution and consider the induced random graph…
In 4D compact U(1) lattice gauge theory with a monopole term added to the Wilson action we first reveal some properties of a third phase region at negative $\beta$. Then at some larger values of the monopole coupling $\lambda$ by a…
We derive a local index theorem in Quillen's form for families of Cauchy-Riemann operators on orbifold Riemann surfaces (or Riemann orbisurfaces) that are quotients of the hyperbolic plane by the action of cofinite finitely generated…
In this note we study, for a random lattice L of large dimension n, the supremum of the real parts of the zeros of the Epstein zeta function E_n(L,s) and prove that this random variable has a limit distribution, which we give explicitly.…
Approximate lattices are aperiodic generalisations of lattices of locally compact groups that were first studied in seminal work of Yves Meyer. They are defined as those uniformly discrete approximate subgroups (symmetric subsets stable…
We determine the classical approximation constants $w_{3}(\zeta),w_{3}^{\ast}(\zeta),\lambda_{3}(\zeta)$ such as the uniform constants $\widehat{w}_{3}(\zeta),\widehat{w}_{3}^{\ast}(\zeta),\widehat{\lambda}_{3}(\zeta)$ associated to real…
For the hard-core lattice gas model defined on independent sets weighted by an activity $\lambda$, we study the critical activity $\lambda_c(\mathbb{Z}^2)$ for the uniqueness/non-uniqueness threshold on the 2-dimensional integer lattice…
We investigate the analytic properties of a Dirichlet series involving the Fourier-Jacobi coefficients of two cusp forms for orthogonal groups of signature $(2,n+2)$. Using an orthogonal Eisenstein series of Klingen type, we obtain an…
We adapt an argument of Tao and Vu to show that if $\lambda_1\le\cdots\le\lambda_d$ are the successive minima of an origin-symmetric convex body $K$ with respect to some lattice $\Lambda<\mathbb{R}^d$, and if we set…
An asymptotic formula is presented for the number of planar lattice convex polygonal lines joining the origin to a distant point of the diagonal. The formula involves the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function and leads to a necessary and…
We give an alternative proof of a recent result of Klartag on the existence of almost subgaussian linear functionals on convex bodies. If $K$ is a convex body in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with volume one and center of mass at the origin, there exists…
