The independence polynomial originates in statistical physics as the partition function of the hard-core model. The location of the complex zeros of the polynomial is related to phase transitions, and plays an important role in the design…
We give a discussion of the classical Bowen$\unicode{x2013}$Series coding and, in particular, its application to the study of zeta functions associated to geodesic flows and their zeros. In the case of compact surfaces of constant negative…
Many statistical models are algebraic in that they are defined by polynomial constraints or by parameterizations that are polynomial or rational maps. This opens the door for tools from computational algebraic geometry. These tools can be…
By a "happy fractal" we mean a metric space with bounded geometry in the sense of a doubling condition and a lot of paths of finite length, so that any pair of points can be connected by a path whose length is less than or equal to a…
A null vector is an algebraic quantity with square equal to zero. I denote the universal algebra generated by taking all sums and products of null vectors over the real or complex numbers by N. The rules of addition and multiplication in N…
One of the most famous problems in mathematics is the Riemann hypothesis: that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on a line in the complex plane. One way to prove the hypothesis would be to identify the zeros as…
We extend a factorization due to Krein to arbitrary analytic functions from the upper half-plane to itself. The factorization represents every such function as a product of fractional linear factors times a function which, generally, has…
Let $\xi_0, \xi_1, \dots$ be i.i.d. random variables with zero mean and unit variance. We study the following four families of random analytic functions: $\sum_{k=0}^n \sqrt{\binom nk} \xi_k z^k$ (spherical polynomials), $\sum_{k=0}^\infty…
We consider the partial theta function $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$, where $q\in (-1,0)\cup (0,1)$ and either $x\in \mathbb{R}$ or $x\in \mathbb{C}$. We prove that for $x\in \mathbb{R}$, in each of the two cases $q\in…
Lee-Yang and Fisher zeros are crucial for the study of phase transitions in the grand canonical and the canonical ensembles, respectively. However, these powerful methods do not cover the isothermal-isobaric ensemble (NPT ensemble), which…
We classify all subsets $S$ of the projective Hilbert space with the following property: for every point $\pm s_0\in S$, the spherical projection of $S\backslash\{\pm s_0\}$ to the hyperplane orthogonal to $\pm s_0$ is isometric to…
A new, coordinate-free (geometric) approach to multivariate statistical analysis. General multivariate linear models and linear hypotheses are defined in geometric form. A method of constructing statistical criteria is defined for linear…
We review definitions and properties of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces attached to Gaussian variables and processes, with a view to applications in nonparametric Bayesian statistics using Gaussian priors. The rate of contraction of…
Fitting experiment data onto a curve is a common signal processing technique to extract data features and establish the relationship between variables. Often, we expect the curve to comply with some analytical function and then turn data…
This is a tutorial introduction to the functional analysis mathematics needed in many physical problems, such as in waves in continuous media. Functional analysis takes us beyond finite matrices, allowing us to work with infinite sets of…
W. Luo has investigated the distribution of zeros of the derivative of the Selberg zeta function associated to compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. In essence, the main results in Luo's article involve the following three points: Finiteness…
Four propositions are considered concerning the relationship between the zeros of two combinations of the Riemann zeta function and the function itself. The first is the Riemann hypothesis, while the second relates to the zeros of a…
We show that for a wide class of Gaussian random fields, points are polar in the critical dimension. Examples of such random fields include solutions of systems of linear stochastic partial differential equations with deterministic…
A recurrent theme in functional analysis is the interplay between the theory of positive definite functions, and their reproducing kernels, on the one hand, and Gaussian stochastic processes, on the other. This central theme is motivated by…
Gauge fields are formulated in terms of the zero-energy eigenstates of 2-dimensional Schr$\ddot {\rm o}$dinger equations with central potentials $V_a(\rho)=-a^2g_a\rho^{2(a-1)}$ ($a\not=0$, $g_a>0$ and $\rho=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$). It is shown…
