A well known argument in cosmology gives that the power spectrum (or structure function) $P(k)$ of mass density fluctuations produced from a uniform initial state by physics which is causal (i.e. moves matter and momentum only up to a…
According to empirical observations, some pattern formation phenomena in driven many-particle systems are more pronounced in the presence of a certain noise level. We investigate this phenomenon of fluctuation-driven ordering with a…
Sphere packings in high dimensions interest mathematicians and physicists and have direct applications in communications theory. Remarkably, no one has been able to provide exponential improvement on a 100-year-old lower bound on the…
We investigate the effect of a non-uniform deformation applied to one-dimensional (1D) quantum systems, where the local energy scale is proportional to $g_j = [\sin (j \pi / N)]^m$ determined by a positive integer $m$, site index $1 \leq j…
Consider the parabolic Anderson model $\partial_tu=\frac{1}{2}\partial_x^2u+u\, \eta$ on the interval $[0, L]$ with Neumann, Dirichlet or periodic boundary conditions, driven by space-time white noise $\eta$. Using Malliavin-Stein method,…
We provide a proof of a recently conjectured universal bound on current fluctuations in Markovian processes. This bound establishes a link between the fluctuations of an individual observable current, the cycle affinities driving the system…

We consider a cluster growth model on Z^d, called internal diffusion limited aggregation (internal DLA). In this model, random walks start at the origin, one at a time, and stop moving when reaching a site not occupied by previous walks. It…

Several differential equation models have been proposed to explain the formation of patterns characteristic of the grid cell network. Understanding the effect of noise on these models is one of the key open questions in computational…
In this work we revisit the problem of studying spin-2 fluctuations around a class of solutions in massive type IIA that is given by a warped $\text{AdS}_3 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho}$ and with…
We compute the relative localization volumes of the vibrational eigenmodes in two-dimensional systems with a regular body but irregular boundaries under Dirichlet and under Neumann boundary conditions. We find that localized states are rare…
We study the Langevin dynamics of a d-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau Hamiltonian with isotropic long range repulsive interactions. We show that, once the symmetry is broken, there is a coupling between the mean value of the local field and its…
We derive lower bounds for the variance of the difference of energies between incongruent ground states, i.e., states with edge overlaps strictly less than one, of the Edwards-Anderson model on ${\mathbb Z}^d$. The bounds highlight a…
Networks of strongly-coupled neurons with random connectivity exhibit chaotic, asynchronous fluctuations. In previous work, we showed that when endowed with an additional low-rank connectivity consisting of the outer product of orthogonal…
The dynamics of a spin in the presence of a deterministic and a fluctuating magnetic field is solved for analytically to obtain the averaged value of the spin as a function of time for various kinds of fluctuations (noise). Specifically,…
We rigorously prove a central limit theorem for neural network models with a single hidden layer. The central limit theorem is proven in the asymptotic regime of simultaneously (A) large numbers of hidden units and (B) large numbers of…
We propose a solution to the puzzle of dimensional reduction in the random field Ising model, inverting the question and asking: to what random problem in $D=d+2$ dimensions does a pure system in $d$ dimensions correspond? We consider two…
In first-passage percolation (FPP), one assigns i.i.d.~weights to the edges of the cubic lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ and analyzes the induced weighted graph metric. If $T(x,y)$ is the distance between vertices $x$ and $y$, then a primary…
The principal aim of the present work is to explore limit theorems for small random perturbations of dynamical systems with periodic impulse effects, in the limit of vanishing noise intensity. We start with a system whose time evolution is…
