Using free world-sheet fermions, we construct and classify all the N=2, Z2 X Z2 four-dimensional orbifolds of the type IIA/B strings for which the orbifold projections act symmetrically on the left and right movers. We study the…

We study the resurgent trans-series for the free energy of the two-dimensional O(4) sigma model in a magnetic field. Exploiting integrability, we obtain very high-order perturbative data, from which we can explore non-perturbative sectors.…

The goal of this paper is to describe the oscillatory microstructure that can emerge from minimizing sequences for nonconvex energies. We consider integral functionals that are defined on real valued (scalar) functions $u(x)$ which are…

In these lectures, given at the NATO ASI at Windsor (2001), applications of the replicas nonlinear sigma model to disordered systems are reviewed. A particular attention is given to two sets of issues. First, obtaining non-perturbative…

The behaviour of the renormalized spin 2-point function in the O(3) and dodecahedron spin model are investigated numerically. The Monte Carlo data show excellent agreement between the two models. The short distance behavior comes very close…

Discrete series Whittaker functions on $Spin(2n, 2)$ are studied. The dimensions of the space of both algebraic and continuous Whittaker models are explicitly determined. They are described by a sum of dimensions of irreducible…

We study a large class of BPS surface defects in 4d N=2 gauge theories. They are defined by coupling a 2d N=(2,2) gauged linear sigma model to the 4d bulk degrees of freedom. Our main result is an efficient computation of the effective…

We consider two atoms trapped in a one-dimensional harmonic oscillator potential interacting through a contact interaction. We study the transition from the non-interacting to the strongly interacting Tonks-Girardeau state, as the…

We report on calculations of smoothed spectral correlations in the two-dimensional Anderson model for weak disorder. As pointed out in (M. Wilkinson, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 21, 1173 (1988)), an analysis of the smoothing dependence of the…

We consider penalized extremum estimation of a high-dimensional, possibly nonlinear model that is sparse in the sense that most of its parameters are zero but some are not. We use the SCAD penalty function, which provides model selection…

Explicit expressions for the non-singlet and singlet structure functions g_1 in the small-x region are obtained. They include the total resummation of the double- and single- logarithms of x and account for the running QCD coupling effects.…

Fisher's phenomenological renormalization method is used to calculate the mass gap and the correlation length of the $O(N)$ nonlinear $\sigma$ model on a semi-compact space $S^{1}\times {\bf R}^{2}$. This shows that the ultraviolet momentum…

Let $\hat\Sigma=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n X_i\otimes X_i$ denote the sample covariance operator of centered i.i.d.~observations $X_1,\dots,X_n$ in a real separable Hilbert space, and let $\Sigma=\mathbb{E}(X_1\otimes X_1)$. The focus of this…

This paper explores the numerical conformal bootstrap in general spacetime dimensions through the lens of a distinct category of analytic functionals, previously employed in two-dimensional studies. We extend the application of these…

We present evidence that there is a non-trivial fixed point for the AdS_{D+1} non-linear sigma model in two dimensions, without any matter fields or additional couplings beyond the standard quadratic action subject to a quadratic…

Two-dimensional sigma models on superspheres $S^{r-1|2s} \cong OSp(r|2s)/OSp(r - 1|2s)$ are known to flow to weak coupling $g_{\sigma} \to 0$ in the IR when $r - 2s < 2$. Their long-distance properties are described by a free 'Goldstone'…

Structure functions of rough fracture surfaces in isotropic materials exhibit complicated scaling properties due to the broken isotropy in the fracture plane generated by a preferred propagation direction. Decomposing the structure…

The stability problem for the O(N) nonlinear sigma model in the 2+\epsilon dimensions is considered. We present the results of the 1/N^{2} order calculations of the critical exponents (in the 2<d<4 dimensions) of the composite operators…

The two-point functions of the energy-momentum tensor and the Noether current are used to probe the O(3) nonlinear sigma model in an energy range below 10^4 in units of the mass gap $m$. We argue that the form factor approach, with the form…

We study the renormalization of the matrix elements of the twist-two non-singlet bilinear quark operators, contributing to the $n=2$ and $n=3$ moments of the structure functions, at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD perturbation…
