We compute the volume of the convex N^2-1 dimensional set M_N of density matrices of size N with respect to the Hilbert-Schmidt measure. The hyper--area of the boundary of this set is also found and its ratio to the volume provides an…

We study a variant of the Falconer distance problem for dot products. In particular, for fractal subsets $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $a,x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study sets of the form \[ \Pi_x^a(A) := \{\alpha \in \mathbb{R} : (a-x)\cdot y=…

Entropy is useful in statistical problems as a measure of irreversibility, randomness, mixing, dispersion, and number of microstates. However, there remains ambiguity over the precise mathematical formulation of entropy, generalized beyond…

We extend the study of finite-entanglement scaling from one-dimensional gapless models to two-dimensional systems with a Fermi surface. In particular, we show that the entanglement entropy of a contractible spatial region with linear size…

In the problem of quantum state discrimination, one has to determine by measurements the state of a quantum system, based on the a priori side information that the true state is one of two given and completely known states, rho or sigma. In…

We study the dimension theory of limit sets of iterated function systems consisting of a countably infinite number of conformal contractions. Our focus is on the Assouad type dimensions, which give information about the local structure of…

In the last years different studies have revealed the usefulness of a microcanonical analysis of finite systems when dealing with phase transitions. In this approach the quantities of interest are exclusively expressed as derivatives of the…

Subshifts are sets of colorings of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ defined by families of forbidden patterns. In a given subshift, the extender set of a finite pattern is the set of all its admissible completions. Since soficity of $\mathbb{Z}$ subshifts is…

Finite-state complexity is a variant of algorithmic information theory obtained by replacing Turing machines with finite transducers. We consider the state-size of transducers needed for minimal descriptions of arbitrary strings and, as our…

In the present paper we define statistically self-similar sets, and, using a modification of method described K.J.Falconer find a Hausdorff dimension of a statistically self-similar set.

We provide an ergodic theorem for certain Banach-space valued functions on structures over $\ZZ^d$, which allow for existence of frequencies of finite patterns. As an application we obtain existence of the integrated density of states for…

We consider the evolution of a connected set in Euclidean space carried by a periodic incompressible stochastic flow. While for almost every realization of the random flow at time t most of the particles are at a distance of order sqrt{t}…

We initiate the study of the sets $H(c)$, $0<c<1$, of real $x$ for which the sequence $(kx)_{k\geq1}$ (viewed mod 1) consistently hits the interval $[0,c)$ at least as often as expected (i. e., with frequency $\geq c$). More formally, \[…

We consider a general class of disordered mean-field models where both the spin variables and disorder variables take finitely many values. To investigate the size-dependence in the phase-transition regime we construct the metastate…

Let $G$ be the group $\mathbb{Z}^d$ or the monoid $\mathbb{N}^d$ where $d$ is a positive integer. Let $X$ be a subshift over $G$, i.e., a closed and shift-invariant subset of $A^G$ where $A$ is a finite alphabet. We prove that the…

For a fixed $\theta^2=1/m$, $m \in \mathbb{N}_+$, let $x \in [0, \theta)$ and $[a_1(x) \theta, a_2(x) \theta, \ldots]$ be the $\theta$-expansion of $x$. Our first goal is to extend for $\theta$-expansions the results of Jarnik \cite{J-1928}…

We explore a notion of pseudofinite dimension, introduced by Hrushovski and Wagner, on an infinite ultraproduct of finite structures. Certain conditions on pseudofinite dimension are identified that guarantee simplicity or supersimplicity…

Recently Koivusalo, Levesley, Ward and Zhang introduced the set of simultaneously $\Phi$-badly approximable real vectors of $\mathbb{R}^m$ with respect to an approximation function $\Phi$, and determined its Hausdorff dimension for the…

I. J. Good (1941) showed that the set of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose partial quotients $a_n$ tend to infinity is of Hausdorff dimension $1/2$. A number of related results impose restrictions of the type $a_n\in B$ or $a_n\geq f(n)$,…

Many important sets of normalized states in a multipartite quantum system of finite dimension d, such as the set S of all separable states, are real semialgebraic sets. We compute dimensions of many such sets in several low-dimensional…
