Consider long-range Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in which we connect each pair of distinct points $x$ and $y$ by an edge with probability $1-\exp(-\beta\|x-y\|^{-d-\alpha})$, where $\alpha>0$ is fixed and $\beta\geq 0$ is a…
Suppose that $h$ is a Gaussian free field (GFF) on a planar domain. Fix $\kappa \in (0,4)$. The SLE$_\kappa$ light cone ${\mathbf L}(\theta)$ of $h$ with opening angle $\theta \in [0,\pi]$ is the set of points reachable from a given…
We approximate a given rational spectral density by one that is consistent with prescribed second-order statistics. Such an approximation is obtained by minimizing a suitable distance from the given spectrum and under the constraints…
We study the asymptotic expansion for the Landau constants $G_n$, \begin{equation*} \pi G_{n}\sim \ln(16N)+\gamma+\sum^{\infty}_{k=1}\frac{\alpha_k}{N^k} ~~\mbox{as} ~ n\rightarrow\infty, \end{equation*} where $N=n+1$, and $\gamma$ is…
We prove $L^q$ bounds on the restriction of spectral clusters to submanifolds in Riemannian manifolds equipped with metrics of $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity for $0 \leq \alpha \leq 1$. Our results allow for Lipschitz regularity when $\alpha…
Let $\Gamma < G := \operatorname{SO}(d+1, 1)$ for $d \geq 1$ be a Zariski dense, geometrically finite, discrete subgroup with critical exponent strictly greater than $d/2$. We show that $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$ admits a strong spectral…
Peral/Miyachi's celebrated theorem on fixed time $L^{p}$ estimates with loss of derivatives for the wave equation states that the operator $(I-\Delta)^{- \frac{\alpha}{2}}\exp(i \sqrt{-\Delta})$ is bounded on $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ if and…
We consider the lagrangian $L=F(R)$ in classical (=non-quantized) two-dimensional fourth-order gravity and give new relations to Einstein's theory with a non-minimally coupled scalar field. We distinguish between scale-invariant lagrangians…
Light-front holographic QCD provides a successful first approximation to hadron spectroscopy in the chiral limit of $(3+1)$-dim light-front QCD, where a holographic Schr\"odinger-like equation, with an emerging confining scale, $\kappa$,…
We consider the Markoff spectrum and the Lagrange spectrum on the Hecke group $\mathbf H_4$. They are identical to the Markoff and Lagrange spectra of the unit circle. The Markoff spectrum on $\mathbf H_4$ is also known as the Markoff…
We construct a family of self-adjoint operators on the prime numbers whose entries depend on pairwise arithmetic divergences, replacing geometric distance with number-theoretic dissimilarity. The resulting spectra encode how coherence…
The spectral resolving power R = lambda / delta lambda is a key property of any spectrograph, but its definition is vague because the `smallest resolvable wavelength difference' delta lambda does not have a consistent definition. Often the…
In this paper we provide explicit upper and lower bounds on certain $L^2$ $n$-widths, i.e., best constants in $L^2$ approximation. We further describe a numerical method to compute these $n$-widths approximately, and prove that this method…
To compare continued fraction digits with the denominators of the corresponding approximants we introduce the arithmetic-geometric scaling. We will completely determine its multifractal spectrum by means of a number theoretical free energy…
Random hyperspherical harmonics are Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the unit $d$-dimensional sphere ($d\ge 2$). We study the convergence in Total Variation distance for their nonlinear statistics in the high energy limit, i.e., for…
For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…
We study the $L^2$ spectral gap of a large system of strongly coupled diffusions on unbounded state space and subject to a double-well potential. This system can be seen as a spatially discrete approximation of the stochastic Allen-Cahn…
This paper is dedicated to the spectral optimization problem \begin{equation*} \min \big\{ \lambda_1(\Omega)+\cdots+\lambda_k(\Omega) + \Lambda|\Omega| \ : \ \Omega \subset D \text{ quasi-open} \big\} \end{equation*} where…
We establish a connection between the $L^2$ norm of sums of dilated functions whose $j$th Fourier coefficients are $\mathcal{O}(j^{-\alpha})$ for some $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$, and the spectral norms of certain greatest common divisor (GCD)…
We show that, for $n\geq 3$, $\lim_{t \to 0} e^{it\Delta}f(x) = f(x)$ holds almost everywhere for all $f \in H^s (\mathbb{R}^n)$ provided that $s>\frac{n}{2(n+1)}$. Due to a counterexample by Bourgain, up to the endpoint, this result is…
