We compute the bulk limit of the correlation functions for the uniform measure on lozenge tilings of a hexagon. The limiting determinantal process is a translation invariant extension of the discrete sine process, which also describes the…
In this paper we construct several models with nearest-neighbor interactions and with the set $[0,1]$ of spin values, on a Cayley tree of order $k\geq 2$. We prove that each of the constructed model has at least two translational-invariant…
We study a hierarchical model of non-overlapping cubes of sidelengths $2^j$, $j \in \mathbb{Z}$. The model allows for cubes of arbitrarily small size and the activities need not be translationally invariant. It can also be recast as a spin…
The dimensionful nature of the coupling in the Einstein-Hilbert action in four dimensions implies that the theory is non-renormalizable; explicit calculation shows that beginning at two loop order, divergences arise that cannot be removed…
We consider a class of of massless gradient Gibbs measures, in dimension greater or equal to three, and prove a decoupling inequality for these fields. As a result, we obtain detailed information about their geometry, and the percolative…
We perform a general computation of the off-shell one-loop divergences in Einstein gravity, in a two-parameter family of path integral measures, corresponding to different ways of parametrizing the graviton field, and a two-parameter family…

We discuss an alternative to the Higgs mechanism which leads to gauge invariant masses for the electroweak bosons. The key idea is to reformulate the gauge invariance principle which, instead of being applied as usual at the level of the…
We prove that Gibbs measures based on 1D defocusing nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger functionals with sub-harmonic trapping can be obtained as the mean-field/large temperature limit of the corresponding grand-canonical ensemble for many bosons.…
This study aims at examination of the lower-order spectral moments in collision-induced absorption (CIA), taking the translational He-Ar band as an example. General quantum corrections for the zeroth and first spectral moments are derived…
Gibbsian line ensembles are families of Brownian lines arising in many natural contexts such as the level curves of three dimensional Ising interfaces, the solid-on-solid model, multi-layered polynuclear growth etc. An important example is…
We construct a model for noncommutative gravity in four dimensions, which reduces to the Einstein-Hilbert action in the commutative limit. Our proposal is based on a gauge formulation of gravity with constraints. While the action is metric…
We consider gradient models on the lattice $Z^d$. These models serve as effective models for interfaces and are also known as continuous Ising models. The height of the interface is modelled by a random field with an energy which is a…
A gauge-invariant Wigner quantum mechanical theory is obtained by applying the Weyl-Stratonovich transform to the von Neumann equation for the density matrix. The transform reduces to the Weyl transform in the electrostatic limit, when the…
We construct and study properties of an infinite dimensional analog of Kahane's theory of Gaussian multiplicative chaos \cite{K85}. Namely, if $H_T(\omega)$ is a random field defined w.r.t. space-time white noise $\dot B$ and integrated…
We construct a family of measures for random fields based on the iterated subdivision of simple geometric shapes (triangles, squares, tetrahedrons) into a finite number of similar shapes. The intent is to construct continuum limits of scale…
The quantum measure in area tensor Regge calculus can be constructed in such the way that it reduces to the Feynman path integral describing canonical quantisation if the continuous limit along any of the coordinates is taken. This…
We define a finite Borel measure of Gibbs type, supported by the Sobolev spaces of negative indexes on the circle. The measure can be seen as a limit of finite dimensional measures. These finite dimensional measures are invariant by the…
