We develop the theory of Patterson-Sullivan measures on the boundary of a locally compact hyperbolic group, associating to certain left invariant metrics on the group measures on the boundary. We later prove that for second countable,…
We note an intimate connection between the Lefschetz Theorem for c-arrangements, and a theorem of Hironaka relating the complement of an arrangement to its boundary manifold. This results in a generalization of Hironaka's result.
In the absence of any symmetry constraints we address universal properties of the boundary charge $Q_B$ for a wide class of nearest-neighbor tight-binding models in one dimension with one orbital per site but generic modulations of on-site…
We propose a new approach for constructing the late-time conformal boundary of quantum field theory in de Sitter spacetime. A boundary theory which consists of a continuous family of primary operators residing on unitary irreducible…
This is a very brief review of some aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence with an emphasis on the role of the topology of the boundary and the meaning of the sum over bulk geometries. To appear in the proceedings of the 73rd Meeting between…
In this paper,based on the available mathematical works on geometry and topology of hyperbolic manifolds and discrete groups, some results of Freedman et al (hep-th/9804058) are reproduced and broadly generalized. Among many new results the…
The motion of a quantum particle constrained to a two-dimensional non-compact Riemannian manifold with non-trivial metric can be described by a flat-space Schroedinger-type equation at the cost of introducing local mass and metric and…
The centerpiece of topological photonics is the bulk-boundary correspondence principle (BBCP), which relates discrete invariants of the Bloch bands to the possible presence of interface modes between two periodic heterostructures. In…
We study topological boundary conditions in abelian Chern-Simons theory and line operators confined to such boundaries. From a mathematical point of view, their relationships are described by a certain 2-category associated to an even…
We discuss (2+1)-dimensional gapless surface theories of bulk (3+1)-dimensional topological phases, such as the BF theory at level $\mathrm{K}$, and its generalization. In particular, we put these theories on a flat (2+1) dimensional torus…
The connected wedge theorem states that in order to have a scattering process in the bulk, it is necessary to have $O(1/G_N)$ mutual information between certain "decision" regions in the boundary theory. While this large mutual information…
We give a few observations on different types of bounded operators on a topological vector space X and their relations with compact operators on X. In particular, we investigate when these bounded operators coincide with compact operators.…
The bulk-edge correspondence for topological quantum liquids states that the spectrum of the reduced density matrix of a large subregion reproduces the thermal spectrum of a physical edge. This correspondence suggests an intricate…
An introduction into the theory of boundary critical phenomena and the application of the field-theoretical renormalization group method to these is given. The emphasis is on a discussion of surface critical behavior at bulk critical points…
New universal invariant operators are introduced in a class of geometries which include the quaternionic structures and their generalisations as well as 4-dimensional conformal (spin) geometries. It is shown that, in a broad sense, all…
Part I of this paper introduced the infinite dimensional Lagrange-Dirac theory for physical systems on the space of differential forms over a smooth manifold with boundary. This approach is particularly well-suited for systems involving…
An analysis of the boundary representations and C$^*$-envelopes of some finite-dimensional operator systems $\mathcal R$ is undertaken by considering relationships between operator-theoretic properties of a $d$-tuple $\mathfrak…
The interface between two materials described by spectrally gapped Hamiltonians is expected to host an in-gap interface mode, whenever a certain topological invariant changes across the interface. We provide a precise statement of this…

We investigate systems of equations, involving parameters from the point of view of both control theory and computer algebra. The equations might involve linear operators such as partial (q-)differentiation, (q-)shift, (q-)difference as…
