The geometric properties of a lattice can have profound consequences on its band spectrum. For example, symmetry constraints and geometric frustration can give rise to topologicially nontrivial and dispersionless bands, respectively.…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
We construct a lattice theory describing a system of interacting nonrelativistic spin s=1/2 fermions at nonzero chemical potential. The theory is applicable whenever the interparticle separation is large compared to the range of the…
There are important conjectures about logarithmic conformal field theories (LCFT), which are constructed as kernel of screening operators acting on the vertex algebra of the rescaled root lattice of a finite-dimensional semisimple complex…
It is known that certain theories with extended supersymmetry can be discretized in such a way as to preserve an exact fermionic symmetry. In the simplest model of this kind, we show that this residual supersymmetric invariance is actually…
We describe two different approaches to making systematic classifications of plane lattice polygons, and recover the toric codes they generate, over small fields, where these match or exceed the best known minimum distance. This includes a…
Supersymmetry, like Poincare symmetry, is softly broken at finite lattice spacing provided the gaugino mass term is strongly suppressed. Domain wall fermions provide the mechanism for suppressing this term by approximately imposing chiral…
Linear upper bounds may be derived by imposing specific structural conditions on a generating set, such as additional constraints on ranks, eigenvalues, or the degree of the minimal polynomial of the generating matrices. This paper…
Locating-dominating codes have been studied widely since their introduction in the 1980s by Slater and Rall. In this paper, we concentrate on vertices that must belong to all minimum locating-dominating codes in a graph. We call them…
The graphene-inspired fermion actions recently proposed by Creutz and Borici have sparked interest in the use of non-orthogonal lattices in lattice QCD. These fermion actions have the desired chiral symmetry and have the minimal doubling…
We report site percolation thresholds for square lattice with neighbor interactions at various increasing ranges. Using Monte Carlo techniques we found that nearest neighbors (N$^2$), next nearest neighbors (N$^3$), next next nearest…
We construct a model in which four dimensional chiral fermions arise on the boundaries of a five dimensional lattice with free boundary conditions in the fifth direction. The physical content is similar to Kaplan's model of domain wall…
Let \mathbb{F}_q^{n+l} denote the (n+l)-dimensional singular linear space over a finite field \mathbb{F}_q. For a fixed integer m\leq\min\{n,l\}, denote by \mathcal{L}^m_o(\mathbb{F}_q^{n+l}) the set of all subspaces of type (t,t_1), where…
Orders and fractional ideals in number fields provide interesting examples of lattices. We ask: what lattices arise from orders in number fields? We prove that all nontrivial multiplicative constraints on successive minima of orders come…
We introduce maximal and average coherence on lattices by analogy with these notions on frames in Euclidean spaces. Lattices with low coherence can be of interest in signal processing, whereas lattices with high orthogonality defect are of…
Every Euclidean domain $R$ has a minimal Euclidean function, $\phi_R$. A companion paper \cite{Graves} introduced a formula to compute $\phi_{\mathbb{Z}[i]}$. It is the first formula for a minimal Euclidean function for the ring of integers…
We introduce the use of Fourier analysis on lattices as an integral part of a lattice based construction. The tools we develop provide an elegant description of certain Gaussian distributions around lattice points. Our results include two…

Defining a Chiral Fermion Theory on a lattice has presented an ongoing challenge both in Condensed Matter physics and in Lattice Gauge Theory. In this paper, we demonstrate that a chiral free-fermion theory can live on an ultra-local…
We propose a novel combinatorial algorithm for efficient generation of Hamiltonian walks and cycles on a cubic lattice, modeling the conformations of lattice toy proteins. Through extensive tests on small lattices (allowing complete…
