Contrary to the electric charge that generates the electric field, magnetic charge (namely magnetic monopoles) does not exist in the elementary electromagnetism. Consequently, magnetic flux lines only form loops and cannot have a source or…

We consider entanglement entropy between two halves of space separated by a plane, in the theory of free photon in 3+1 dimensions. We show how to separate local gauge invariant quantities that belong to the two spatial regions. We calculate…

Motivated by fractal geometry of self-affine carpets and sponges, Feng--Huang (2016) introduced weighted topological entropy and pressure for factor maps between dynamical systems, and proved variational principles for them. We introduce a…

We characterize compact eight-manifolds M which arise as internal spaces in N=1 flux compactifications of M-theory down to AdS3 using the theory of foliations, for the case when the internal part of the supersymmetry generator is everywhere…

The multipole concept, which characterizes the spacial distribution of scalar and vector objects by their angular dependence, has already become widely used in various areas of physics. In recent years it has become employed to…

In topological dynamics, tame and null systems arise naturally in the study of low-complexity aperiodic behaviour, yet providing concrete and easily testable conditions to establish their existence in a canonical class of systems is often…

Mary Rees has constructed a minimal homeomorphism of the 2-torus with positive topological entropy. This homeomorphism f is obtained by enriching the dynamics of an irrational rotation R. We improve Rees construction, allowing to start with…

We generalize the topological entanglement entropy to a family of topological Renyi entropies parametrized by a parameter alpha, in an attempt to find new invariants for distinguishing topologically ordered phases. We show that,…

Co-compact entropy is introduced as an invariant of topological conjugation for perfect mappings defined on any Hausdorff space(compactness and metrizability not necessarily required). This is achieved through the consideration of…

We demonstrate that dual entropy expressions of the Tsallis type apply naturally to statistical-mechanical systems that experience an exceptional contraction of their configuration space. The entropic index $\alpha>1$ describes the…

The well known Liouville-Arnold theorem says that if a level surface of integrals of an integrable system is compact and connected, then it is a torus. However, in some important examples of integrable systems the topology of a level…

The classical Second Law of Thermodynamics demands that an isolated system evolves with a non-diminishing entropy. This holds as well in quantum mechanics if the evolution of the energy-isolated system can be described by a unital quantum…

In this note we study linear systems on complete toric varieties $X$ with an invariant point, whose orbit under the action of the automorphism group of $X$ contains the dense torus $T$ of $X$. We give a characterization of such varieties in…

This paper is the fourth in a series whose goal is to develop a fundamentally new way of building theories of physics. The motivation comes from a desire to address certain deep issues that arise in the quantum theory of gravity. Our basic…

In arXiv:1801.01238 a variation of Bowen's topological entropy that can be applied to the study of discontinuous semiflows on compact metric spaces was introduced. The main novetly is the use of certain family of pseudosemimetrics…

We consider entanglement across a planar boundary in flat space. Entanglement entropy is usually thought of as the von Neumann entropy of a reduced density matrix, but it can also be thought of as half the von Neumann entropy of a product…

We study the dynamics of a charged particle in a planar magnetic field which consists of $n\geq 2$ disjoint localized peaks. We show that, under mild geometric conditions, this system is semi-conjugated to the full shift on $n$ symbols and,…

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 this paper it is proved that near a compact, invariant, proper subset of a continuous flow on a compact, connected metric space, at least one, out of twenty eight relevant dynamical phenomena, will necessarily occur. This result shows…

Hawking showed that a black hole formed by collapse will emit radiation and eventually disappear. We address the challenge to define an objective notion of physical entropy which increases throughout this process in a way consistent with…
