A scaling theory is used to derive the dependence of the average number <k> of spanning clusters at threshold on the lattice size L. This number should become independent of L for dimensions d<6, and vary as log L at d=6. The predictions…
In low dimensions, conformal anomaly has profound influence on the critical behavior of random surfaces with extrinsic curvature rigidity $1/\a$. We illustrate this by making a small $D$ expansion of rigid random surfaces, where a…
We prove the effective termination of general type MMPs in dimension at most $5$, and give explicit bounds (in terms of topological invariants and volume of divisors) on the number of steps in the MMP when the dimension is at most $4$.
Large-scale Monte Carlo simulations, together with scaling, are used to obtain the critical behavior of the Hastings long-range model and two corresponding models based on small-world networks. These models have combined short- and…

Collective actuation in active solids, the spontaneous condensation of the dynamics on a few elastic modes, takes place whenever the deformations of the structure reorient the forces exerted by the active units composing, or embedded in,…
Multidimensional phase space integrals must be calculated in order to obtain predictions for total or differential cross sections, or to simulate unweighted events of multiparticle reactions. The corresponding matrix elements, already in…
