Given a knot $K$ parametrized by $r: [0,2\pi] \to \mathbb{R}^3$, we can define the electric potential on its complement by $\Phi(x) = \int_0^{2\pi} \frac{|r'(t)|}{|x - r(t)|}dt$. Physicists and knot theorists want to understand the critical…

A double-well energy expressed as a minimum of two quadratic functions, called phase energies, is studied with taking into account the minimization of the corresponding integral functional. Such integral, as being not sequentially weakly…

We provide explicit lower bounds for the ground-state energy of the renormalized Nelson model in terms of the coupling constant $\alpha$ and the number of particles $N$, uniform in the meson mass and valid even in the massless case. In…

In this note, we attempt to find counterexamples to the conjecture that the ideal form of a knot, that which minimizes its contour length while respecting a no-overlap constraint, also minimizes the volume of the knot, as determined by its…

This paper discusses the regularity of multiple-valued Dirichlet minimizing maps into the sphere. It shows that even at branched point, as long as the normalized energy is small enough, we have the energy decay estimate. Combined with the…

A classical knot is described by a one-stroke trajectory with entanglements of a string. The replica method appears as a powerful tool in statistical mechanics for a polymer or self-avoiding walk. We consider this replica N to 0 limit in…

It has been argued that certain reduced actions play a role in AdS/CFT when comparing fast moving strings to long single trace operators in gauge theories. Such actions arise in two ways: as a limit of the string action and as a description…

We consider circulant graphs G(r,N) where the vertices are the integers modulo N and the neighbours of 0 are {-r,...,-1,1,...,r}. The energy of G(r,N) is a trigonometric sum of N*r terms. For low values of r we compute this sum explicitly.…

We show that a central $1/r^n$ singular potential (with $n\geq 2$) is renormalized by a one-parameter square-well counterterm; low-energy observables are made independent of the square-well width by adjusting the square-well strength. We…

Densities of particles on $\Rn$ which interact pairwise through an attractive-repulsive power-law potential $W_{\al,\bt}(x) = |x|^\al/\al-|x|^\bt/\bt$ have often been used to explain patterns produced by biological and physical systems. In…

Energy randomness is a notion of partial randomness introduced by Diamondstone and Kjos-Hanssen to characterize the sequences that can be elements of a Martin-L\"of random closed set (in the sense of Barmpalias, Brodhead, Cenzer, Dashti,…

Energy spectra of quasi-one-dimensional quantum rings with a few electrons are studied using several different theoretical methods. Discrete Hubbard models and continuum models are shown to give similar results governed by the special…

Current quadratic smoothness energies for curved surfaces either exhibit distortions near the boundary due to zero Neumann boundary conditions, or they do not correctly account for intrinsic curvature, which leads to unnatural-looking…

We derive the renormalization group equations for a generic nonrenormalizable theory. We show that the equations allow one to derive the structure of the leading divergences at any loop order in terms of one-loop diagrams only. In chiral…

The method recently proposed by Skala and Cizek for calculating perturbation energies in a strict sense is ambiguous because it is expressed as a ratio of two quantities which are separately divergent. Even though this ratio comes out…

Ring geometries have fascinated experimental and theoretical physicists over many years. Open rings connected to leads allow the observation of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, a paradigm of quantum mechanical phase coherence. The phase coherence…

We consider $\mathbb{S}^2$-valued maps on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ minimizing a perturbation of the Dirichlet energy with vertical penalization in $\Omega$ and horizontal penalization on $\partial\Omega$. We first show the…

We classify the local, polynomial, unitary gauge theories that violate Lorentz symmetry explicitly at high energies and are renormalizable by weighted power counting. We study the structure of such theories and prove that renormalization…

We studied the correlated quasi-one-dimensional systems by one-loop renormalization group techniques in weak coupling. In contrast to conventional g-ology approach, we formulate the theory in terms of bilinear currents and obtain all…

We verify a recent conjecture of Sehrawat, Kumar and Ahlawat on the minimum bisection width (a notion that was rediscovered in 2020 by Acharya and Kureethara under the name of rna number) of powers of cycles.
