We develop a strong stretching approximation for a polymer brush made of self-avoiding polymer chains. The density profile of the brush and the distribution of the end monomer positions in stretching direction are computed and compared with…
This paper proposes the geometric relationship of epipolar geometry and orientation- and scale-covariant, e.g., SIFT, features. We derive a new linear constraint relating the unknown elements of the fundamental matrix and the orientation…
We consider the configuration space of planar $n$-gons with fixed perimeter, which is diffeomorphic to the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^{n-2}$. The oriented area function has the minimal number of critical points on the…
In the maximum independent set of convex polygons problem, we are given a set of $n$ convex polygons in the plane with the objective of selecting a maximum cardinality subset of non-overlapping polygons. Here we study a special case of the…
We give a general strategy to construct superoscillating/growing functions using an orthogonal polynomial expansion of a bandlimited function. The degree of superoscillation/growth is controlled by an anomalous expectation value of a…
The scaling of the time delay near a "bottleneck" of a generic saddle-node bifurcation is well-known to be given by an inverse square-root law. We extend the analysis to several non-generic cases for smooth vector fields. We proceed to…
Stretched polymers with attractive interaction are studied in two and three dimensions. They are described by biased self-avoiding random walks with nearest neighbour attraction. The bias corresponds to opposite forces applied to the first…
The present study illuminates the relation between null cusped Wilson loops and their corresponding amplitudes. We find that, compared to the case with no self-crossing, the one loop expectation value of a self-intersecting Wilson loop…
In this paper, we consider the problem of partitioning a polygon into a set of connected disjoint sub-polygons, each of which covers an area of a specific size. The work is motivated by terrain covering applications in robotics, where the…
We conjecture the exact scaling theory for the adsorption of two-dimensional polymers by using boundary S matrices. We compute the boundary free energy (the ``g-function''), study the flow from adsorbed to desorbed phase, and derive the…
We demonstrate that scale-free patterns are observed in a spatially extended stochastic system whose deterministic part undergoes a saddle-node bifurcation. Remarkably, the scale-free patterns appear only at a particular time in relaxation…
We study symplectic forms on hypersurface algebroids. These are a broad generalization of the $b^{k}$-Poisson structures studied extensively by Miranda, Scott, and collaborators, and their geometry is intimately related to the group of…
We give an elementary introduction to some recent polyhedral techniques for understanding and solving systems of multivariate polynomial equations. We provide numerous concrete examples and illustrations, and assume no background in…
In this work we present scattering functions of conjugates consisting of a colloid particle and a self-avoiding polymer chain. This model is directly derived from the two point correlation function with the inclusion of excluded volume…
Approximation by polynomials on a triangle is studied in the Sobolev space $W_2^r$ that consists of functions whose derivatives of up to $r$-th order have bounded $L^2$ norm. The first part aims at understanding the orthogonal structure in…
In this paper, we construct the supersymmetric spinning polynomials. These are orthogonal polynomials that serve as an expansion basis for the residue or discontinuity of four-point scattering amplitudes, respecting four-dimensional super…
The problem of finding a $k \times k$ submatrix of maximum volume of a matrix $A$ is of interest in a variety of applications. For example, it yields a quasi-best low-rank approximation constructed from the rows and columns of $A$. We show…
By viewing the regular $N$-gon as the set of $N$th roots of unity in the complex plane we transform several questions regarding polygon diagonals into when a polynomial vanishes when evaluated at roots of unity. To study these solutions we…
A fundamental paradigm in polymer physics is that macromolecular conformations in equilibrium can be described by universal scaling laws, being key for structure, dynamics, and function of soft (biological) matter and in the materials…
Geometric medians on product manifolds are sensitive to the relative scaling of factor metrics because the median objective couples the factors rather than separating them. We study this scale-selection problem and first prove that naive…
