Entanglement entropy is a useful probe of compressible quantum matter because it can detect the existence of Fermi surfaces, both of microscopic fermionic degrees of freedom and of "hidden" gauge charged fermions. Much recent attention has…

In this article, we propose the realization of conformal manifolds, which are smooth manifolds of scale-conformal invariant interacting Hamiltonians in two-dimensional quantum many-body systems. Such phenomena can occur in various…

Let $\rho$ be a representation of the fundamental group of a punctured surface into $\mathrm{PSL}_2 (\mathbb{C})$ that is not Fuchsian. We prove that there exists a Fuchsian representation that strictly dominates $\rho$ in the simple length…

Let S(D) be the surface produced by applying Seifert's algorithm to the oriented link diagram D. I prove that if D has no negative crossings then S(D) is a quasipositive Seifert surface, that is, S(D) embeds incompressibly on a fiber…

We introduce floating bodies for convex, not necessarily bounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. This allows us to define floating functions for convex and log concave functions and log concave measures. We establish the asymptotic behavior of…

In this paper, we prove that for any $C^1$ surface diffeomorphism $f$ with positive topological entropy, there exists a diffeomorphism $g$ arbitrarily close (in the $C^1$ topology) to $f$ exhibiting a horseshoe $\Lambda$, such that the…

In this paper we prove that if two normal affine surfaces $S$ and $S'$ have isomorphic automorphism groups, then every connected algebraic group acting regularly and faithfully on $S$ acts also regularly and faithfully on $S'$. Moreover, if…

Here we develop a regularity theory for a polyconvex functional in $2\times2-$dimensional compressible finite elasticity. In particular, we consider energy minimizers/stationary points of the functional…

Let $q$ be a nondegenerate quadratic form on $V$. Let $X\subset V$ be invariant for the action of a Lie group $G$ contained in $SO(V,q)$. For any $f\in V$ consider the function $d_f$ from $X$ to $C$ defined by $d_f(x)=q(f-x)$. We show that…

For a compact surface $\Sigma$ (orientable or not, and with boundary or not) we show that the fixed subgroup, $\operatorname{Fix} B$, of any family $B$ of endomorphisms of $\pi_1(\Sigma)$ is compressed in $\pi_1(\Sigma)$ i.e.,…

We classify, up to few exceptions, the orbit closures of the $\mathrm{Mod}(\Sigma)$-action on the affine character variety $\chi(\mathrm{Aff}(\mathbb{C}))$. We obtain from this classification that the only obstruction for a non-abelian…

This paper focuses on the classification of classes of topological equivalence of finite group actions on Riemann surfaces. By the Riemann-Hurwitz bound, there are just finitely many groups that act conformally on a closed orientable…

We investigate the scaling of the entanglement entropy in an infinite translational invariant Fermionic system of any spatial dimension. The states under consideration are ground states and excitations of tight-binding Hamiltonians with…

We study smooth actions by lattices in higher-rank simple Lie groups. Assuming one element of the action acts with positive topological entropy, we prove a number of new rigidity results. For lattices in $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ acting…

According to the Ambrosetti-Prodi theorem, the map $F(u)= - \Delta u - f(u)$ between appropriate functional spaces is a global fold. Among the hypotheses, the convexity of the function $f$ is required. We show in two different ways that,…

Let $S$ be a right reversible semitopological semigroup, and let $\operatorname{LUC}(S)$ be the space of left uniformly continuous functions on $S$. Suppose that $\operatorname{LUC}(S)$ has a left invariant mean. Let $K$ be a weakly compact…

Extending and unifying a number of well-known conjectures and open questions, we conjecture that locally elliptic (that is, every element has a bounded orbit) actions by automorphisms of finitely generated groups on finite dimensional…

We show that every hyperbolic group has a proper uniformly Lipschitz affine action on a subspace of an $L^1$ space. We also prove that every acylindrically hyperbolic group has a uniformly Lipschitz affine action on such a space with…

We present the expression for the quasiparticle vertex function $\Gamma^{\omega }(K_{F},P_{F})$ (proportional to the Landau function) in a 2D Fermi liquid (FL) near a $T=0$ instability towards antiferromagnetism. Previous studies have found…

The orbit-fixing deformation spaces of $C^\infty$ locally free actions of simply connected Lie groups on closed $C^\infty$ manifolds have been studied by several authors. In this paper we reformulate the deformation space by imitating the…
