In the monomer-polymer model, a linear rigid polymer covers $k$ adjacent lattice sites, with no lattice site occupied by more than one polymer. The polymers are called $k$-mers, and those unoccupied lattice sites are called monomers. The…

For Hermitian connections on a Hermitian complex line bundle over a Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$, we can define the ``volume", which can be considered to be the ``mirror" of the standard volume for submanifolds. We call the critical points…

Invariant circles play an important role as barriers to transport in the dynamics of area-preserving maps. KAM theory guarantees the persistence of some circles for near-integrable maps, but far from the integrable case all circles can be…

We extend coupled-cluster theory performed on top of a Slater determinant breaking rotational symmetry to allow for the exact restoration of the angular momentum at any truncation order. The main objective relates to the description of…

We give new interpretations of the $\nu$-Tamari lattice of Pr\'eville-Ratelle and Viennot. First, we describe it as a rotation lattice of $\nu$-trees, which uncovers the relation with known combinatorial objects such as tree-like tableaux…

We prove that a hypothesis of Cassels, Swinnerton-Dyer, recast by Margulis as statement on the action of the diagonal group $A$ on the space of unimodular lattices, is equivalent to several assertions about minimal sets for this action.…

We consider the minimal average action (Mather's $\beta$ function) for area preserving twist maps of the annulus. The regularity properties of this function share interesting relations with the dynamics of the system. We prove that the…

We show that a doubly minimal system $X$ has the property that for every minimal system $Y$ the orbit closure of any pair $(y,x) \in Y \times X$ is either $Y \times X$ or it has the form $\Gamma_\pi = \{(\pi(x),x) : x \in X\}$ for some…

Dilation surfaces are geometric surfaces modelled after the complex plane whose structure group is generated by the groups of translations and dilations. For any dilation surface, for any direction $\theta$ in $S^1$, there exists a…

The simplest toroidally compactified string theories exhibit a duality between large and small radii: compactification on a circle, for example, is invariant under R goes to 1/R. Compactification on more general Lorentzian lattices (i.e.…

We consider a class of quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems obtained by adding to a non-convex Hamiltonian function of an integrable system a perturbation depending only on the angle variables. We focus on a resonant maximal torus of the…

In the spirit of multi-scale modeling, we develop a theoretical framework for spin-lattice coupling that connects, on the one hand, to ab initio calculations of spin-lattice coupling parameters and, on the other hand, to the magneto-elastic…

We define combinatorial analogues of stable and unstable minimal surfaces in the setting of weighted pseudomanifolds. We prove that, under mild conditions, such combinatorial minimal surfaces always exist. We use a technique, adapted from…

Atomically thin moir\'e materials behave like elastic membranes where at very small twist angles, the van der Waals adhesion energy much exceeds the strain energy. In this ``marginal twist" regime, regions with low adhesion energy expand,…

We introduce the notion of a polyptych lattice, which encodes a collection of lattices related by piecewise linear bijections. We initiate a study of the new theory of convex geometry and polytopes associated to polyptych lattices. In…

Fomin and Zelevinsky show that a certain two-parameter family of rational recurrence relations, here called the (b,c) family, possesses the Laurentness property: for all b,c, each term of the (b,c) sequence can be expressed as a Laurent…

We discuss a large class of classical field theories with continuous translation symmetry. In the quantum theory, a new anomaly explicitly breaks this translation symmetry to a discrete symmetry. Furthermore, this discrete translation…

It is shown that the set of equations known as Maxwell's equations perfectly describe two very different systems: (1) the usual electromagnetic phenomena in vacuum or in the matter and (2) the deformation of isotropic solid lattices,…

Given a lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider its Minkowski reduced basis and the solid angle $\Omega$ spanned by the basis vectors. Such a basis satisfies strong near-orthogonality conditions, which allow us to bound from…

The classical matrix tree theorem relates the number of spanning trees of a connected graph with the product of the nonzero eigenvalues of its Laplacian matrix. The class of regular matroids generalizes that of graphical matroids, and a…
