Critical points and singularities are encountered in the study of critical phenomena in probability and physics. We present recent results concerning the values of such critical points and the nature of the singularities for two prominent…

Following our recent conjecture to model the phenomenona of antiferromagnetism and superconductivity by quantum symmetry groups, we discuss in the present note how to construct a workable scenario using this symmetry. In particular we…

We discuss systematic approaches to the classification of string/M theory vacua, and physical questions this might help us resolve. To this end, we initiate the study of ensembles of effective Lagrangians, which can be used to precisely…

We give an extensive study on the Bergman kernel expansions and the random zeros associated with the high tensor powers of a semipositive line bundle on a complete punctured Riemann surface. We prove several results for the zeros of…

The local theory of the critical lines of 2D and 3D Gaussian fields that underline the cosmic structures is presented. In the context of cosmological matter distribution the subset of critical lines of the 3D density field serves to…

We study the landscape complexity of the Hamiltonian $X_N(x) +\frac\mu2 \|x\|^2,$ where $X_{N}$ is a smooth Gaussian process with isotropic increments on $\mathbb R^{N}$. This model describes a single particle on a random potential in…

We introduce an effective field theory for the vicinity of a zero temperature quantum transition between a metallic spin glass (``spin density glass'') and a metallic quantum paramagnet. Following a mean field analysis, we perform a…

We study $N=1$ supersymmetric $SP(N_c)$ gauge theories with $N_f$ flavors of quarks in the fundamental representation. Depending on $N_f$ and $N_c$, we find exact, dynamically generated superpotentials, smooth quantum moduli spaces of…

In both quantum computing and black hole physics, it is natural to regard some deformations, infinitesimal unitaries, as \emph{easy} and others as \emph{hard}. This has lead to a renewed examination of right-invariant metrics on…

We prove a central limit theorem for smooth linear statistics related to the zero divisors of Gaussian i.i.d. centered holomorphic sections of tensor powers of a Hermitian holomorphic line bundle over a non-compact Hermitian manifold.

A new method was proposed recently to investigate the location of the putative critical point of strongly interacting matter, governed by quantum chromodynamics. By approximating contours of constant entropy density at finite baryon…

Random optical fields with two widely different correlation lengths generate far field speckle spots that are themselves highly speckled. We call such patterns speckled speckle, and study their critical points (singularities and stationary…

In this paper, using the concept of natural density, we have introduced the notion of rough statistical convergence which is an extension of the notion of rough convergence in a partial metric space. We have defined the set of rough…

Perturbative supersymmetry breaking on the landscape of string vacua is expected to favor large soft terms as a power-law or log distribution, but tempered by an anthropic veto of inappropriate vacua or vacua leading to too large a value…

All possible scaling IR asymptotics in homogeneous, translation invariant holographic phases preserving or breaking a U(1) symmetry in the IR are classified. Scale invariant geometries where the scalar extremizes its effective potential are…

We study the gravitational lensing properties of a massive object in a dark matter halo, concentrating on the critical curves and caustics of the combined lens. We model the system in the simplest approximation by a point mass embedded in a…

Rational points in the boundary of a hyperbolic curve over a field with sufficiently nontrivial Kummer theory are the source for an abundance of sections of the fundamental group exact sequence. We follow and refine Nakamura's approach…

We report on the construction of four-dimensional string vacua by considering general abelian and non-abelian bundles on an internal Calabi-Yau for both heterotic theories. The structure of the resulting gauge sector is extremely rich and…

In this paper and in the forthcoming Part II we introduce a Morse complex for a class of functions f defined on an infinite dimensional Hilbert manifold M, possibly having critical points of infinite Morse index and coindex. The idea is to…

After summarizing briefly some numerical results for four-dimensional supersymmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills quantum mechanics, we review a recent study of systems with an infinite number of colours. We study in detail a particular supersymmetric…
