Resonating valence bond (RVB) theory of high Tc superconductivity, an electron correlation based mechanism, began as an insightful response by Anderson, to Bednorz and Muller's discovery of high Tc superconductivity in cuprates in late…
Although mean field theories have been very successful to predict a wide range of properties for solids, the discovery of high temperature superconductivity in cuprates supported the idea that strongly correlated materials cannot be…
Using numerical results from a density matrix renormalization group study as a guide, we develop a resonating valence bond (RVB) theory for coupled Heisenberg chains. We argue that simple topological effects mandate a short-range RVB…
Numerical results are presented for a generalized resonance valence bond state which includes both ionic and covalent contributions in each bond ; non nearest-neighbor bonds are also considered. Variational calculations have been performed…
A simple microscopic principle of `Valence bond (nearest neighbor singlet) amplitude maximization '(VBAM) is shown to be present in undoped and optimally doped cuprates and unify the very different orderings such as antiferromagnetism in…
Comment on the view of P.W. Anderson on the cuprates, as expressed in the Feb. '00 issue of Physics Today.
We introduce the notion of a ``non-commutative crepant'' resolution of a singularity and show that it exists in certain cases. We also give some evidence for an extension of a conjecture by Bondal and Orlov, stating that different crepant…
A Gutzwiller-type variational wave function is proposed for the neutron resonance mode in the cuprate superconductors. An efficient re-weighting technique is devised to perform variational Monte Carlo simulation on the proposed wave…
In this paper we both review the famous article "Eine fur die Valenztheorie geeignete Basis der binaren Vektorinvarianten" of G. Rumer, E. Teller, and H. Weyl on Rumer diagrams and use a powerful old result from algebraic geometry to…
Using algebraic transformations and equivalent reformulations we derive a number of new results from some earlier ones (by the author) in more accepted terms closely related to well-known conjectures of Bondy and Jung including a number of…
Anderson's Garden is a drawing presented to Philip W. Anderson on the eve of his 60th birthday celebration, in 1983. This cartoon (Fig. 1), whose author is unknown, succinctly depicts some of Anderson's pre-1983 works, as a blooming garden.…
New cases of the multiplicity conjecture are considered.
We survey some recent progress in the theory of vector bundles on algebraic varieties and related questions in algebraic K-theory.
We define a new divergence of von Neumann algebras using a variational expression that is similar in nature to Kosaki's formula for the relative entropy. Our divergence satisfies the usual desirable properties, upper bounds the sandwiched…
We prove a number of conjectures [arXiv:2005.04066] recently stated by P. Barry, related to the paperfolding sequence and the Rueppel sequence.
We show that the mean-field resonating valence bond approximation proposed in 1987 by Baskaran, Zou, and Anderson describes gapless charge pair excitations confined to the boundaries of the spinon Brillouin zone. The existence of such pairs…
In this article, we give proofs on the Arnold Lagrangian intersection conjecture on the cotangent bundles, Arnold-Givental Lagrangian intersection conjecture and the Arnold fixed point conjecture.
This is an expository paper detailing some of the recent advances on the problem, with emphasis on the number-theoretic method developed in my paper with Bond and Volberg for rational product sets (arXiv:1109.1031).
We applied the Recurrent Variational Approach to the two-leg Hubbard ladder. At half-filling, our variational Ansatz was a generalization of the resonating valence bond state. At finite doping, hole pairs were allowed to move in the…
Recently, M. Tsukamoto (New approach to weighted topological entropy and pressure, Ergod. Theory Dyn. Syst. 43 (2023) 1004-1034) used a new approach to define the weighted topological entropy and pressure. Inspired by his ideas, we…
