For a set $A\subset C[0,\infty)$, we give new results on the growth of the number of particles in a dyadic branching Brownian motion whose paths fall within A. We show that it is possible to work without rescaling the paths. We give large…

We study slow variation (both spatial as well as temporal) of a parameter of a system in the vicinity of discontinuous quantum phase transitions, in particular, a discontinuity critical point (DCP) (or a first-order critical point). We…
