We give alternate constructions of (i) the scaling limit of the uniform connected graphs with given fixed surplus, and (ii) the continuum random unicellular map (CRUM) of a given genus that start with a suitably tilted Brownian continuum…

In 1990, Schnyder used a 3-spanning-tree decomposition of a simple triangulation, now known as the Schnyder wood, to give a fundamental grid-embedding algorithm for planar maps. In the framework of mating of trees, a uniformly sampled…

We set the foundation for a series of works aimed at proving strong relations between uniform random planar maps and Liouville quantum gravity (LQG). Our method relies on a bijective encoding of site-percolated planar triangulations by…

To characterize the generic behavior of open quantum systems, we consider random, purely dissipative Liouvillians with a notion of locality. We find that the positivity of the map implies a sharp separation of the relaxation timescales…

We establish the first connection between $2d$ Liouville quantum gravity and natural dynamics of random matrices. In particular, we show that if $(U_t)$ is a Brownian motion on the unitary group at equilibrium, then the measures $$…

We present methods of finding complex eigenvalues of the Liouvillian of an open quantum system. The goal is to find eigenvalues that cannot be predicted from the eigenvalues of the corresponding Hamiltonian. Our model is a T-type quantum…

This thesis is driven by a central question: "What can we learn from random geometries about the structure of quantum spacetime?" In Chapter 2, we provide a partial review of the mathematical foundation of this thesis, random geometry. In…

It has been shown that univalent circle packings filling in the complex plane $\bold C$ are unique up to similarities of $\bold C$. Here we prove that bounded degree branched circle packings properly covering $\bold C$ are uniquely…

We first establish new local limit estimates for the probability that a nondecreasing integer-valued random walk lies at time $n$ at an arbitrary value, encompassing in particular large deviation regimes. This enables us to derive scaling…

Separable Hamiltonian systems either in sphero-conical coordinates on a $S^2$ sphere or in elliptic coordinates on a ${\mathbb R}^2$ plane are described in an unified way. A back and forth route connecting these Liouville Type I separable…

We compute the spectrum of the classical and quantum mechanical coarse-grained propagators for a piecewise linear discontinuous map. We analyze the quantum - classical correspondence and the evolution of the spectrum with increasing…

The eigenvector expansion developed in the preceding paper for a system of damped linear oscillators is extended to critical points, where eigenvectors merge and the time-evolution operator $H$ assumes a Jordan-block structure. The…

In 1972, Alnia\c{c}ik proved that every strong Liouville number is mapped into the set of $U_m$-numbers, for any non-constant rational function with coefficients belonging to an $m$-degree number field. In this paper, we generalize this…

The quantum group structure of the Liouville theory is reviewd and shown to be an important tool for solving the theory.

Using the method of symbolic dynamics, we show that a large class of classical chaotic maps exhibit exponential hypersensitivity to perturbation, i.e., a rapid increase with time of the information needed to describe the perturbed time…

We are interested in the asymptotics of random trees built by linear preferential attachment, also known in the literature as Barab\'asi-Albert trees or plane-oriented recursive trees. We first prove a conjecture of Bubeck, Mossel \& R\'acz…

We present a (mathematically rigorous) probabilistic and geometrical proof of the KPZ relation between scaling exponents in a Euclidean planar domain D and in Liouville quantum gravity. It uses the properly regularized quantum area measure…

A random polymer model is a one-dimensional Jacobi matrix randomly composed of two finite building blocks. If the two associated transfer matrices commute, the corresponding energy is called critical. Such critical energies appear in…

In some recent papers several authors used electronic circuits to construct loss and gain systems. This is particularly interesting in the context of PT-quantum mechanics, where this kind of effects appears quite naturally. The electronic…

The origin of the rather mysterious duality symmetry found in quantum Liouville theory is investigated by considering the Liouville theory as the reduction of a WZW-like theory in which the form of the potential for the Cartan field is not…
