Consider the restriction of the directed landscape $\mathcal L(x, s; y, t)$ to a set of the form $\{x_1, \dots, x_k\} \times \{s_0\} \times \mathbb R \times \{t_0\}$. We show that on any such set, the directed landscape is given by a last…

By recent works of B\"aumler [2] and of the authors of this paper [5], the (limiting) random metric for the critical long-range percolation was constructed. In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of the geodesic between two fixed points,…

We consider the three-dimensional instability of a layer of horizontal magnetic field in a polytropic atmosphere where, contrary to previous studies, the field lines in the initial state are not unidirectional. We show that if the twist is…

A two-dimensional direction-length framework $(G,p)$ consists of a multigraph $G=(V;D,L)$ whose edge set is formed of "direction" edges $D$ and "length" edges $L$, and a realisation $p$ of this graph in the plane. The edges of the framework…

It is known that for a variety of choices of metrics, including the standard bottleneck distance, the space of persistence diagrams admits geodesics. Typically these existence results produce geodesics that have the form of a convex…

We report an exhaustive numerical study of the statistical properties of the potential energy landscape of TIP4P/2005, one of the most accurate rigid water models. We show that, in the region where equilibrated configurations can be…

A prime geodesic theorem is proven for singular geodesics in quotients of SL(4). This is a case where regularity assumptions of previous papers fail. As a consequence, the analysis becomes much more involved. For applications in number…

We show that the directed landscape is the unique coupling of the KPZ fixed point from all initial conditions satisfying three natural properties: independent increments, monotonicity, and shift commutativity. Equivalently, we show that the…

We show that given a stable weighted configuration on the asymptotic boundary of a locally compact Hadamard space, there is a polygon with Gauss map prescribed by the given weighted configuration if the configuration is stable. Moreover,…

We analyse the geodesics' dynamics in cylindrically symmetric vacuum spacetimes with Lambda>0 and compare it to the Lambda=0 and Lambda<0 cases. When Lambda>0 there are two singularities in the metric which brings new qualitative features…

By an undirected rigid formation of mobile autonomous agents is meant a formation based on graph rigidity in which each pair of "neighboring" agents is responsible for maintaining a prescribed target distance between them. In a recent paper…

Let $\Upsilon $ be a compact, negatively curved surface. From the (finite) set of all closed geodesics on $\Upsilon$ of length $\leq L$, choose one, say $\gamma_{L}$, at random and let $N (\gamma_{L})$ be the number of its…

Given an infinite connected graph, a way to randomly perturb its metric is to assign random i.i.d. lengths to the edges of the graph. Assume that the graph is infinite and of bounded degree. Assume also strict positivity and finite…

We have numerically studied a model of granular landscape eroded by wind. We show the appearance of labyrinthic patterns when the wind orientation turns by $90^\circ$. The occurence of such structures are discussed. Morever, we introduce…

The Directed Landscape, a random directed metric on the plane (where the first and the second coordinates are termed spatial and temporal respectively), was constructed in the breakthrough work of Dauvergne, Ortmann, and Vir\'ag, and has…

For stochastic Hamilton-Jacobi (SHJ) equations, instability points are the space-time locations where two eternal solutions with the same asymptotic velocity differ. Another fundamental structure in such equations is shocks, which are the…

A simple observation about the action for geodesics in a stationary spacetime with separable geodesic equations leads to a natural class of slicings of that spacetime whose orthogonal geodesic trajectories represent freely falling…

We study geodesics in the Brownian map $(\mathcal{S},d,\nu)$, the random metric measure space which arises as the Gromov-Hausdorff scaling limit of uniformly random planar maps. Our results apply to all geodesics including those between…

The Brownian map is a random geodesic metric space arising as the scaling limit of random planar maps. We strengthen the so-called confluence of geodesics phenomenon observed at the root of the map, and with this, reveal several properties…

We generalize the geodesic rule to the case of formation of higher codimensional global defects. Relying on energetic arguments, we argue that, for such defects, the geometric structures of interest are the totally geodesic submanifolds. On…
