Ginzburg-Landau effective potential is studied for the order parameter that transforms in the $(3,3)$ representation under the color SU(3) group. All the SU(3) terms to the fourth-order of the order parameter are classified and the…

This article analyzes well-definedness and regularity of renormalized powers of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes and uses this analysis to establish local existence, uniqueness and regularity of strong solutions of stochastic Ginzburg-Landau…

A conjecturally complete list of connected components of complements of discriminant varieties (aka wave fronts) of smooth function singularities of type $X_{10}^3$ and $X_{10}^1$ is presented; it are the first examples of not…

All mixed states of two qubits can be brought into normal form by the action of SLOCC operations of the kind $\rho'=(A\otimes B)\rho(A\otimes B)^\dagger$. These normal forms can be obtained by considering a Lorentz singular value…

We study the properties of the phase transition in three dimensional U(1)+Higgs theory or Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity. Special attention is paid to large values of scalar self coupling (Type II superconductors), where the…

We prove a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^n$ for varieties with at worst isolated local complete intersection quotient singularities. In dimension three, we prove such a numerical characterization of $\mathbb{P}^3$ for normal…

P. Clarke describes mirror symmetry as a duality between Landau--Ginzburg models, so that the dual of an LG model is another LG model. We describe examples in which the underlying space is a total space of a vector bundle on the projective…

We show that the recently derived ($q$-) discrete form of the Painlev\'e VI equation can be related to the discrete P$_{\rm III}$, in particular if one uses the full freedom in the implementation of the singularity confinement criterion.…

While Euler characteristic X(G)=sum_x w(x) super counts simplices, Wu characteristics w_k(G) = sum_(x_1,x_2,...,x_k) w(x_1)...w(x_k) super counts simultaneously pairwise interacting k-tuples of simplices in a finite abstract simplicial…

The Bernstein-Sato polynomial is an important invariant of an element or an ideal in a polynomial ring or power series ring of characteristic zero, with interesting connections to various algebraic and topological aspects of the…

In this article, we consider the singularity of an arbitrary homogeneous polynomial with complex coefficients $f(x_0,\dots,x_n)$ at the origin of $\mathbb C^{n+1}$, via the study of the monodromy characteristic polynomials $\Delta_l(t)$,…

We discuss the prepotential describing the effective field theory of N=2 heterotic superstring models. At the one loop-level the prepotential develops logarithmic singularities due to the appearance of charged massless states at particular…

This survey offers an overview of recent advances in nonlocal phase transition problems, modeled by Ginzburg--Landau type energies of the form \[ \frac{1}{4}\iint_{\R^{2n}\setminus (\R^n \setminus \Omega)^2}…

The presentation of two-parameter quantum groups of type E-series in the sense of Benkart-Witherspoon [BW1] is given, which has a Drinfel'd quantum double structure. The universal $R$-matrix and a convex PBW-type basis are described for…

Let G < SL(V) be a finite group, V is finite dimensional over a field F, p=char F and S(V) is the symmetric algebra of V. We determine when the subring of G-invariants S(V)^G is a polynomial ring. As a consequence, we classify, if F is…

We construct an important missing piece in the entanglement theory of pure three-qubit states, which is a polynomial measure of W-entanglement, working in parallel to the three-tangle, which is a polynomial measure of GHZ-entanglement, and…

In this paper, we discuss various aspects of a class of A-twisted heterotic Landau-Ginzburg models on a Kaehler variety X. We provide a classification of the R-symmetries in these models which allow the A-twist to be implemented, focusing…

The goal of this article is twofold. First, we find a natural home for the double affine Hecke algebras (DAHA) in the physics of BPS states. Second, we introduce new invariants of torus knots and links called "hyperpolynomials" that address…

This paper is a sequel to [He7]. There a notion of marking of isolated hypersurface singularities was defined, and a moduli space $M_\mu^{mar}$ for marked singularities in one $\mu$-homotopy class of isolated hypersurface singularities was…

A new class of quasi exactly solvable potentials with a variable mass in the Schroedinger equation is presented. We have derived a general expression for the potentials also including Natanzon confluent potentials. The general solution of…
