We establish the sharpness of the phase transition for a wide class of Gaussian percolation models, on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ or $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, with correlations decaying at least algebraically with exponent $\alpha > 0$, including the…
In this work we consider infinite dimensional extensions of some finite dimensional Gaussian geometric functionals called the Gaussian Minkowski functionals. These functionals appear as coefficients in the probability content of a tube…
I describe the dynamics in recently revealed phases with vector condensates of gauge fields in dense QCD (gluonic phase) and other gauge models. In this case, the Higgs mechanism is provided by condensates of gauge (or gauge plus scalar)…
In wireless sensor networks, various applications involve learning one or multiple functions of the measurements observed by sensors, rather than the measurements themselves. This paper focuses on type-threshold functions, e.g., the maximum…

The probability density function (PDF) of a global measure in a large class of highly correlated systems has been suggested to be of the same functional form. Here, we identify the analytical form of the PDF of one such measure, the order…
We develop some of the finer details of the location of the zeros of the weight two Eisenstein series. These zeros are the same as the zeros of the derivative of the Ramanujan delta function.
In order to quantify the error budget in the measured probability distribution functions of cell densities, the two-point statistics of cosmic densities in concentric spheres is investigated. Bias functions are introduced as the ratio of…
In previous work, we showed that an anomaly in the one point function of marginal operators is related by the Wess-Zumino condition to the Euler density anomaly on a two dimensional defect or boundary. Here we analyze in detail the two…
Let $\mathcal{X}= \{X(t) : t \in \mathbb{R}^N \} $ be an isotropic Gaussian random field with real values.In a first part we study the mean number of critical points of $\mathcal{X}$ with index $k$ using random matrices tools.We obtain an…
For a large class of self-similar sets F in R^d analogues of the higher order mean curvatures of differentiable submanifolds are introduced, in particular, the fractal Gauss-type curvature. They are shown to be the densities of associated…
Biconformal gauging of the conformal group has a scale-invariant volume form, permitting a single form of the action to be invariant in any dimension. We display several 2n-dim scale-invariant polynomial actions and a dual action. We solve…
Despite the increasing importance of stochastic processes on linear networks and graphs, current literature on multivariate (vector-valued) Gaussian random fields on metric graphs is elusive. This paper challenges several aspects related to…
We study general correlation functions of various quantum field theories in the holographic setup. Following the holographic proposal, we investigate correlation functions via a geodesic length connecting boundary operators. We show that…
The model of dense lattice polymers is studied as an example of non-unitary Conformal Field Theory (CFT) with $c=-2$. ``Antisymmetric'' correlation functions of the model are proved to be given by the generalized Kirchhoff theorem.…
For matrix analogues of embedded surfaces we define discrete curvatures and Euler characteristics, and a non-commutative Gauss--Bonnet theorem is shown to follow. We derive simple expressions for the discrete Gauss curvature in terms of…
In this paper we examine different aspects of the geometry of closed conformal vector fields on Riemannian manifolds. We begin by getting obstructions to the existence of closed conformal and nonparallel vector fields on complete manifolds…
