We study the question of existence of positive steady states of nonlinear evolution equations. We recast the steady state equation in the form of eigenvalue problems for a parametrised family of unbounded linear operators, which are…

Regularity properties of solutions for a class of quasi-stationary models in one spatial dimension for stress-modulated growth in the presence of a nutrient field are proven. At a given point in time the configuration of a body after pure…

We show that semi-classical states adapted to the symmetry of the Hamiltonian are an excellent approximation to the exact quantum solution of the ground and first excited states of the Dicke model. Their overlap to the exact quantum states…

We compute quasinormal mode frequencies for static limits of physical black holes - semi-classical black hole solutions to Einstein-Hilbert gravity characterized by the finite formation time of an apparent horizon and its weak regularity.…

The Bak-Sneppen model displaying punctuated equilibria in biological evolution is studied on random complex networks. By using the rate equation and the random walk approaches, we obtain the analytic solution of the fitness threshold $x_c$…

We perform a global renormalization group study of O(N) symmetric Wess-Zumino theories and their phases in three euclidean dimensions. At infinite N the theory is solved exactly. The phases and phase transitions are worked out for finite…

Let $d\in\mathbb N$, $\alpha\in\mathbb R$, and let $f :\mathbb R^d\setminus \{0\} \rightarrow (0,\infty)$ be locally Lipschitz and positively homogeneous of degree $\alpha$ (e.g. $f$ could be the $\alpha$th power of a norm on $\mathbb…

We compute the quasinormal frequencies of $d$-dimensional spherically symmetric black holes with leading string $\alpha'$ corrections for tensorial gravitational perturbations in the highly damped regime. We solve perturbatively the master…

Biological systems are typically highly open, non-equilibrium systems that are very challenging to understand from a statistical mechanics perspective. While statistical treatments of evolutionary biological systems have a long and rich…

The construction of analytic solutions for quasi-exactly solvable systems is an interesting problem. We revisit a class of models for which the odd solutions were largely missed previously in the literature: the anharmonic oscillator, the…

We investigate the profound relation between the equations of biological evolution and quantum mechanics by writing a biologically inspired equation for the stochastic dynamics of an ensemble of particles. Interesting behavior is observed…

For the Helmholtz equation posed in the exterior of a Dirichlet obstacle, we prove that if there exists a family of quasimodes (as is the case when the exterior of the obstacle has stable trapped rays), then there exist near-zero…

We present a stochastic evolutionary model obtained through a perturbation of Kauffman's maximally rugged model, which is recovered as a special case. Our main results are: (i) existence of a percolation-like phase transition in the finite…

We consider the optimization problem associated with fitting two-layers ReLU networks with respect to the squared loss, where labels are generated by a target network. We leverage the rich symmetry structure to analytically characterize the…

A four-state mutation-selection model for the evolution of populations of DNA-sequences is investigated with particular interest in the phenomenon of error thresholds. The mutation model considered is the Kimura 3ST mutation scheme, fitness…

Theoretical results for the extension of a polymer confined to a channel are usually derived in the limit of infinite contour length. But experimental studies and simulations of DNA molecules confined to nanochannels are not necessarily in…

The information content of a non-enzymatic self-replicator is limited by Eigen's error threshold. Presumably, enzymatic replication can maintain higher complexity, but in a competitive environment such a replicator is faced with two…

Let $\mathrm{R}$ be a real closed field. We prove that for any fixed $d$, the equivariant rational cohomology groups of closed symmetric semi-algebraic subsets of $\mathrm{R}^k$ defined by polynomials of degrees bounded by $d$ vanishes in…

We investigate the random loop model on the $d$-ary tree. For $d \geq 3$, we establish a (locally) sharp phase transition for the existence of infinite loops. Moreover, we derive rigorous bounds that in principle allow to determine the…

A fundamental and very well studied region of the Erd\"os-R\'enyi process is the phase transition at n/2 edges in which a giant component suddenly appears. We examine the process beginning with an initial graph. We further examine the…
