For $\beta\in(1,2]$ let $T_\beta: [0,1)\to[0,1); x\mapsto \beta x\pmod 1$. In this paper we study the periodic points in the open dynamical system $([0,1), T_\beta)$ with a hole $[0,t)$. For $p\in\mathbb{N}$ we characterize the largest $t$,…

For $\beta\in(1,2]$ the $\beta$-transformation $T_\beta: [0,1) \to [0,1)$ is defined by $T_\beta ( x) = \beta x \pmod 1$. For $t\in[0, 1)$ let $K_\beta(t)$ be the survivor set of $T_\beta$ with hole $(0,t)$ given by \[K_\beta(t):=\{x\in[0,…
We show that a wide class of unconventional quantum criticality emerges when orbital currents cause quantum phase transitions from zero-gap semiconductors such as Dirac fermions to topological insulator (TI) or Chern insulator (CI). Changes…
We consider an $\varepsilon$-periodic ($\varepsilon\to 0$) tubular structure, modelled as a magnetic Laplacian on a metric graph, which is periodic along a single axis. We show that the corresponding Hamiltonian admits norm-resolvent…

The beta transformation is the iterated map $\beta x\,\mod1$; it generates the base-$\beta$ expansion of a real number x. Every iterated piece-wise monotonic map is topologically conjugate to the beta transformation. For all but a countable…
Topology plays a cardinal role in explaining phases and quantum phase transitions beyond the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm. In this study, we formulate a set of models of Dirac fermions in 2+1 dimensions with…
The Widom-Rowlinson model (or the Area-interaction model) is a Gibbs point process in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the formal Hamiltonian $H(\omega)=\text{Volume}(\cup_{x\in\omega} B_1(x))$, where $\omega$ is a locally finite configuration of points…
We show that as $T\to \infty$, for all $t\in [T,2T]$ outside of a set of measure $\mathrm{o}(T)$, $$ \int_{-(\log T)^{\theta}}^{(\log T)^{\theta}} |\zeta(\tfrac 12 + \mathrm{i} t + \mathrm{i} h)|^{\beta} \mathrm{d} h = (\log…
We consider the phase transition in a model which consists of a Ginzburg-Landau free energy for superconductors including a Chern-Simons term. The mean field theory of Halperin, Lubensky and Ma [Phys. Rev. Lett. 32, 292 (1974)] is applied…
Finding new physical responses that signal topological quantum phase transitions is of both theoretical and experimental importance. Here, we demonstrate that the piezoelectric response can change discontinuously across a topological…
This paper extends those of Glendinning and Sidorov [3] and of Hare and Sidorov [6] from the case of the doubling map to the more general $\beta$-transformation. Let $\beta \in (1,2)$ and consider the $\beta$-transformation…
Let $\phi:X\to \mathbb R$ be a continuous potential associated with a symbolic dynamical system $T:X\to X$ over a finite alphabet. Introducing a parameter $\beta>0$ (interpreted as the inverse temperature) we study the regularity of the…

Topological properties of a periodic condensed matter system are global features of its Brillouin zone (BZ). In contrast, the validity of effective low energy theories is usually limited to the vicinity of a high symmetry point in the BZ.…
