We consider a class of generalized Galileon theories within General Relativity in space-times of more than two spatial dimensions. We show that these theories do not admit stable, static, spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat and…
Let $f_1,\ldots,f_k : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ be multiplicative functions taking values in the closed unit disc. Using an analytic approach in the spirit of Hal\'{a}sz' mean value theorem, we compute multidimensional averages of…
We compute the graviton one loop contribution to a classical energy in a traversable wormhole background. Such a contribution is evaluated by means of a variational approach with Gaussian trial wave functionals. A zeta function…
A two-dimensional CFT dual to a semiclassical theory of gravity in three dimensions must have a large central charge $c$ and a sparse low energy spectrum. This constrains the OPE coefficients and density of states of the CFT via the…
Exact solutions of traversable wormholes were recently found under the assumption of spherical symmetry and the existence of a non-static conformal symmetry. In this paper, we verify that in the case of the conformally symmetric spacetimes…

We study the so-called nonconventional averages in the context of lattice spin systems, or equivalently random colourings of the integers. For i.i.d. colourings, we prove a large deviation principle for the number of monochromatic…
A time series delta(n), the fluctuation of the nth unfolded eigenvalue was recently characterized for the classical Gaussian ensembles of NxN random matrices (GOE, GUE, GSE). It is investigated here for the beta-Hermite ensemble as a…
We develop the asymptotic expansion theory for vector-valued sequences (F N) N $\ge$1 of random variables in terms of the convergence of the Stein-Malliavin matrix associated to the sequence F N. Our approach combines the classical Fourier…
In this article, we consider several models of random walks in one or several dimensions, additionally allowing, at any unit of time, a reset (or "catastrophe") of the walk with probability $q$. We establish the distribution of the final…

A traversable wormhole generally violates the averaged null energy condition, usually requiring exotic matter. Recently, it has been found that the traversable wormhole can be realized by non-exotic matter in Einstein-Dirac-Maxwell theories…
