We examine the dynamic spreading of a dense overdamped suspension of particles under power law repulsive potentials, often called Riesz gases. That is, potentials that decay with distance as 1/r^k where k\in (-2,\infty]. Depending on the…
In this paper, we consider directed polymers in random environment with discrete space and time. For transverse dimension at least equal to 3, we prove that diffusivity holds for the path in the full weak disorder region, i.e., where the…

We study the statistical mechanics of the one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger (DNLS) equation with saturable nonlinearity. Our study represents an extension of earlier work [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 84}, 3740 (2000)] regarding the…

Let $\lambda =[d_1,\dots,d_r]$ be a partition of $d$. Consider the variety $\mathbb{X}_{2,\lambda} \subset \mathbb{P}^N$, $N={d+2 \choose 2}-1$, parameterizing forms $F\in k[x_0,x_1,x_2]_d$ which are the product of $r\geq 2$ forms…
Is it possible to find the sparsest vector (direction) in a generic subspace $\mathcal{S} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^p$ with $\mathrm{dim}(\mathcal{S})= n < p$? This problem can be considered a homogeneous variant of the sparse recovery problem,…
A conducting 1D chain or 2D film inside (or on the surface of) an insulator is considered. Impurities displace the charges inside the insulator. This results in a long-range fluctuating electric field acting on the conducting line (plane).…
Repulsion between individuals within a finite radius is encountered in numerous applications, including cell exclusion, i.e. avoidance of overlapping cells, bird flocks, or microscopic pedestrian models. We define such individual based…
Interatomic potentials are essential to go beyond ab initio size limitations, but simulation results depend sensitively on potential parameters. Forward propagation of parameter variation is key for uncertainty quantification, whilst…
We propose a model for two $(d+1)$-dimensional directed polymers subjected to a mutual $\delta$-function interaction with a random coupling constant, and present an exact renormalization group study for this system. The exact…
We study directed percolation at the upper critical transverse dimension $d=4$, where critical fluctuations induce logarithmic corrections to the leading (mean-field) behavior. Viewing directed percolation as a kinetic process, we address…
Motivated by problems from compressed sensing, we determine the threshold behavior of a random $n\times d$ $\pm 1$ matrix $M_{n,d}$ with respect to the property "every $s$ columns are linearly independent". In particular, we show that for…
Two problems incorporating a set of horizontal linear potentials crossed by a sloped linear potential are analytically solved and compared with numerical results: (a) the case where boundary conditions are specified at the ends of a finite…
We study directed rigidity percolation (equivalent to directed bootstrap percolation) on three different lattices: square, triangular, and augmented triangular. The first two of these display a first-order transition at p=1, while the…
We show that spectral Hausdorff dimensional properties of discrete Schr\"oodinger operators with (1) Sturmian potentials of bounded density and (2) a class of sparse potentials are preserved under suitable polynomial decaying perturbations,…

We investigate the presence of defects in systems described by real scalar field in (D,1) spacetime dimensions. We show that when the potential assumes specific form, there are models which support stable global defects for D arbitrary. We…
A discontinuous Galerkin method has been developed for strain gradient-dependent damage. The strength of this method lies in the fact that it allows the use of $C^0$ interpolation functions for continuum theories involving higher-order…
