Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with $n \ge 1$. We assume that the boundary $\Gamma$ of $\Omega$ is Lipschitz. Consider the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator $N_0$ associated with a system in divergence form of size $m$…
The main technical and conceptual features of the lattice $1/N$ expansion in the scaling region are discussed in the context of a two-parameter two-dimensional spin model interpolating between $CP^{N-1}$ and $O(2N)$ $\sigma$ models, with…
We study the gravitational self-force using the effective field theory formalism. We show that in the ultra-relativistic limit \gamma \to \infty, with \gamma the boost factor, many simplifications arise. Drawing parallels with the large N…

We study the Dirichlet problem on a bounded convex domain of $\mathbb R^N$, with zero boundary data, for truncated Laplacians ${\mathcal P}_k^\pm$, with $k<N$. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition (Theorem 1) in terms of the…
We investigate the analogy between the large N expansion in normal matrix models and the asymptotic expansion of the determinant of the Hilb map, appearing in the study of critical metrics on complex manifolds via projective embeddings.…
We consider the higher-order gravity theory derived from the quadratic lagrangian $R+\epsilon R^2$ in vacuum as a first-order (ADM-type) system with constraints, and build time developments of solutions of an initial value formulation of…
We show that the correlation functions and the free energy of the formal Hermitean 1-matrix model can be described by the recently proposed Lagrangean formalism to all orders. In addition, the loop equation of this formalism is stated and…
The objective of this note is to establish the Determinant Majorization Formula $F(A)^{1\over N} \geq \det(A)^{1\over n}$ for all operators $F$ determined by an invariant Garding-Dirichlet polynomial of degree $N$ on symmetric $n \times n$…
We study unitary invariant random matrix ensembles with singular potentials. We obtain asymptotics for the partition functions associated to the Laguerre and Gaussian Unitary Ensembles perturbed with a pole of order $k$ at the origin, in…
Integrating out a heavy field gives rise to effective Lagrangian containing higher dimensional operators. In the context of Type-I seesaw mechanism, integrating out the heavy right handed neutrino field leads to unique dimension five…
The model of heavy Wigner matrices generalizes the classical ensemble of Wigner matrices: the sub-diagonal entries are independent, identically distributed along to and out of the diagonal, and the moments its entries are of order 1/N,…
We consider the variety of $(p+1)$-tuples of matrices $M_j$ from given conjugacy classes from $GL(n,{\bf C})$ such that $M_1... M_{p+1}=I$. This variety is connected with the Deligne-Simpson problem and the matrices $M_j$ are interpreted as…
We analyze universal terms that appear in the large system size scaling of the overlap between the N\'eel state and the ground state of the spin-1/2 XXZ chain in the antiferromagnetic regime. In a critical theory, the order one term of the…
We shed a new light on the $L^1$-Liouville property for positive, superharmonic functions by providing many evidences that its validity relies on geometric conditions localized on large enough portions of the space. We also present examples…
This work develops a procedure to find classes of Lagrangian densities that describe generalizations of the Abelian Maxwell-Higgs, the Chern-Simons-Higgs and the Maxwell-Chern-Simons-Higgs models. The investigation focuses on the…
Given a map $u : \Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n \longrightarrow \mathbb{R}^N$, the $\infty$-Laplacian is the system \[ \label{1} \Delta_\infty u \, :=\, \Big(\text{D}u \otimes \text{D}u + |\text{D}u|^2 [\text{D}u]^\bot \! \otimes I \Big) :…
We introduce a nonlinear and nonlocal model that describes the range expansion of a population resulting from growth and competition for space. This type of phenomenon underlies the expansion of colonies of immotile cells which motivated…
Properties of universality have essential relevance for the theory of random matrices usually called the Wigner ensemble. The issue was analysed up to recent years with detailed and relevant results. We present a slightly different view and…
In his deep and prolific investigations of heat diffusion, Lam\'e was led to the investigation of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in an equilateral triangle. In particular he derived explicit results for the…
