We show that in the Lorentz mirror model, at any density of mirrors, the probability of a particle starting at the origin to reach distance n is at least 1/(2n+1).
We give a complete classification of the set of parameters $\kappa$ for which the singular value of $E_{\kappa}:z\mapsto \exp(z)+\kappa$ escapes to infinity under iteration. In particular, we show that every path-connected component of this…
In the Lorentz mirror walk in dimension $d\geq 2$, mirrors are randomly placed on the vertices of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ at density $p\in[0,1]$. A light ray is then shot from the origin and deflected through the various mirrors in space. The object…
Recent experiments on mesoscopic samples and theoretical considerations lead us to analyze multiply charged ($n>1$) vortex solutions of the Ginzburg-Landau equations for arbitrary values of the Landau-Ginzburg parameter $\kappa$. For $n\gg…
The Lorentz mirror model provides a clean setting to study macroscopic transport generated solely by quenched environmental randomness. We introduce a hierarchical version whose distribution of left--right crossings satisfies an exact…
This work is a part of my upcoming thesis [7]. We establish an equiconsistency between (1) weak indestructibility for all $\kappa +2$-degrees of strength for cardinals $\kappa $ in the presence of a proper class of strong cardinals, and (2)…
We study the Manhattan and Lorentz Mirror models on an infinite cylinder of finite even width $n$, with the mirror probability $p$ satisfying $p<Cn^{-1}$, $C$ a constant. We use the Brauer and Walled Brauer algebras to show that the maximum…
We use the core model for sequences of measures to prove a new lower bound for the consistency strength of the failure of the SCH: THEOREM (i) If there is a singular strong limit cardinal $\kappa$ such that $2^\kappa > kappa^+$ then there…
For $n<\omega$, we say that the $\Pi^1_n$-reflection principle holds at $\kappa$ and write $\text{Refl}_n(\kappa)$ if and only if $\kappa$ is a $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable cardinal and every $\Pi^1_n$-indescribable subset of $\kappa$ has a…
We establish the first tight lower bound of $\Omega(\log\log\kappa)$ on the query complexity of sampling from the class of strongly log-concave and log-smooth distributions with condition number $\kappa$ in one dimension. Whereas existing…
A Fermi surface coupled to a scalar field can be described in a $1/N$ expansion by choosing the fermion-scalar Yukawa coupling to be random in the $N$-dimensional flavor space, but invariant under translations. We compute the conductivity…
Thermal conductivity coefficient $\kappa$ measures the ability of a material to conduct a heat current. In particular, $\kappa$ is an important property that often dictates the usefulness of a material over a wide range of environmental…
We demonstrate that the technology of Radin forcing can be used to transfer compactness properties at a weakly inaccessible but not strong limit cardinal to a strongly inaccessible cardinal. As an application, relative to the existence of…
The goal of the present paper is to explain, based on properties of the conformal loop ensembles CLE$_\kappa$ (both with simple and non-simple loops, i.e., for the whole range $\kappa \in (8/3, 8)$) how to derive the connection…
We show, incorporating results obtained from numerical simulations, that in the Lorentz mirror model, the density of open paths in any finite box tends to 0 as the box size tends to infinity, for any mirror probability.
We discuss the use of Kaniadakis' $\kappa$-exponential in the construction of a statistical manifold modelled on Lebesgue spaces of real random variables. Some algebraic features of the deformed exponential models are considered. A chart is…
We give estimates for the probability that a chordal, radial or two-sided radial SLE$_\kappa$ curve retreats far from its terminal point after coming close to it, for $\kappa \leq 4$. The estimates are uniform over all initial segments of…
We prove the super-exponential decay of probabilities that there exist $n$ crossings of a given quadrilateral in a simple $\text{CLE}_\kappa(\Omega)$, $\frac{8}{3}<\kappa\le 4$, as $n$ goes to infinity. Besides being of independent…
We develop a novel and powerful method of exactly calculating various transport characteristics of waves in one-dimensional random media with (or without) coherent absorption or amplification. Using the method, we compute the probability…
We introduce and study the recursive divisor function, a recursive analog of the usual divisor function: $\kappa_x(n) = n^x + \sum_{d\lfloor n} \kappa_x(d)$, where the sum is over the proper divisors of $n$. We give a geometrical…
