We consider a quantum integrable inhomogeneous model based on the Brauer algebra B(1) and discuss the properties of its ground state eigenvector. In particular we derive various sum rules, and show how some of its entries are related to…
It is a classical result that a random permutation of $n$ elements has, on average, about $\log n$ cycles. We generalise this fact to all directed $d$-regular graphs on $n$ vertices by showing that, on average, a random cycle-factor of such…
It is proven that for any system of n points z_1, ..., z_n on the (complex) unit circle, there exists another point z of norm 1, such that $$\sum 1/|z-z_k|^2 \leq n^2/4.$$ Equality holds iff the point system is a rotated copy of the nth…
The circular law asserts that if $X_n$ is a $n \times n$ matrix with iid complex entries of mean zero and unit variance, then the empirical spectral distribution of $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}} X_n$ converges almost surely to the uniform…
We obtain a family of polynomials defined by vanishing conditions and associated to tangles. We study more specifically the case where they are related to a O(n) loop model. We conjecture that their specializations at $z_i=1$ are {\it…
In this paper we study spectral sets which are unions of finitely many intervals in R. We show that any spectrum associated with such a spectral set is periodic, with the period an integral multiple of the measure of the set. As a…
In this paper we report on new results relating to a conjecture regarding properties of $n\times n$, $n\leq 6$, positive definite matrices. The conjecture has been proven for $n\leq 4$ using computer-assisted sum of squares (SoS) methods…
In this work we revisit and extend the method introduced by Lins Neto, Sad and Sc\'{a}rdua for detecting the non-existence of invariant algebraic curves other than some prescribed invariant nodal curve. We prove that, under the existence of…
We represent the number of mxn non-negative integer matrices (contingency tables) with prescribed row sums and column sums as the expected value of the permanent of a non-negative random matrix with exponentially distributed entries. We…
Consider an $n\times n$ matrix $P$ with the following properties. All entries in $P$ are positive or $0$, the sum of each row is 1 and for all $i$ and $j$ in $\{1,\dots,n\}$ there exists a natural number $k$ such that the $(i,j)$ entry of…
We study the two-boundary extension of a loop model - corresponding to the dense phase of the O(n) model, or to the Q=n^2 state Potts model - in the critical regime -2 < n < 2. This model is defined on an annulus of aspect ratio \tau. Loops…
We formulate a classification conjecture for conformally invariant families of measures on simple loops that builds on a conjecture of Kontsevich and Suhov. The main example in this class of objects was constructed by Werner as boundaries…
We find the S-matrix which describes the scattering of two-particle bound states of the light-cone string sigma model on AdS5xS5. We realize the M-particle bound state representation of the centrally extended su(2|2) algebra on the space of…
We investigate the existence of normalized ground states for Schr\"odinger equations on noncompact metric graphs in presence of nonlinear point defects, described by nonlinear $\delta$-interactions at some of the vertices of the graph. For…
For a system of two measures supported on a starlike set in the complex plane, we study asymptotic properties of associated multiple orthogonal polynomials $Q_{n}$ and their recurrence coefficients. These measures are assumed to form a…
In this paper we provide a short new proof for the integrality of Rothblum's linear description of the convex hull of incidence vectors of stable matchings in bipartite graphs. In the spirit of iterative rounding proofs, the key feature of…
We show that existence of a global polynomial Lyapunov function for a homogeneous polynomial vector field or a planar polynomial vector field (under a mild condition) implies existence of a polynomial Lyapunov function that is a sum of…
We show that the multiplicity of the second normalized adjacency matrix eigenvalue of any connected graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ is bounded by $O(n \Delta^{7/5}/\log^{1/5-o(1)}n)$ for any $\Delta$, and by…
We develop new tools for an in-depth study of our recent proposal for Matrix Theory. We construct the anomaly-free and finite planar continuum limit of the ground state with SO(2^{13}) symmetry matching with the tadpole and tachyon free IR…
Set $ A := Q/({\bf z}) $, where $ Q $ is a polynomial ring over a field, and $ {\bf z} = z_1,\ldots,z_c $ is a homogeneous $ Q $-regular sequence. Let $ M $ and $ N $ be finitely generated graded $ A $-modules, and $ I $ be a homogeneous…
