Let $X$ be a projective variety and let $f$ be a dominant endomorphism of $X$, both of which are defined over a number field $K$. We consider a question of the second author, Meng, Shibata, and Zhang, which asks whether the tower of…
We describe the minimal configurations of the compact D=11 Supermembrane and D-branes when the spatial part of the world-volume is a K\"ahler manifold. The minima of the corresponding hamiltonians arise at immersions into the target space…
We prove local existence for the second order Renormalization Group flow initial value problem on closed Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ in general dimensions, for initial metrics whose sectional curvatures $K_P$ satisfy the condition…
We discuss certain recent mathematical advances, mainly due to Perelman, in the theory of Ricci flows and their relevance for renormalization group (RG) flows. We consider nonlinear sigma models with closed target manifolds supporting a…
In a previous paper we have introduced the gauge-equivariant K-theory group of a bundle endowed with a continuous action of a bundle of compact Lie groups. These groups are the natural range for the analytic index of a family of…
We introduce a fairly general concept of functional equation for $k$-tuples of functions $f_1,\dots,f_k\colon X \to Y$ between arbitrary sets. The homomorphy equations for mappings between groups and other algebraic systems, as well as…
If a linear combination of k smooth vector fields is zero at a point, then, generically, near this point there are small cycles comprised of segments from the flow of each vector field. This answers a question posed in arXiv:math/0504365.
The differential equations satisfied by the wavefunction coefficients of conformally coupled scalars in a power-law cosmology can be recast into an iterative differential system of basis functions. These functions can be encoded within…
Self-propelled particles with hydrodynamic interactions (microswimmers) have previously been shown to produce long-range ordering phenomena. Many theoretical explanations for these collective phenomena are connected to instabilities in the…
We derive formulas and algorithms for Kitaev's invariants in the periodic table for topological insulators and superconductors for finite disordered systems on lattices with boundaries. We find that K-theory arises as an obstruction to…
In this paper, the author discusses the eigenvalues and entropies under the harmonic-Ricci flow, which is the Ricci flow coupled with the harmonic map flow. We give an alternative proof of results for compact steady and expanding…
We recall theorems by Krygin, Atkinson, Shneiberg and propose the following assertion. Let $T_t$ be an ergodic flow on $(X,\mu)$, let a function $f$ on $X$ have zero mean, and $\mu(A)>0$ for $A\subset X$. Then for almost all $x\in A$ with…
In this article we study conditions to be a continuous or a measurable eigenvalue of finite rank minimal Cantor systems, that is, systems given by an ordered Bratteli diagram with a bounded number of vertices per level. We prove that…
We prove stability estimates for the Shannon-Stam inequality (also known as the entropy-power inequality) for log-concave random vectors in terms of entropy and transportation distance. In particular, we give the first stability estimate…
Using McMahon pseudo-metrics, for any minimal semiflow admitting an invariant measure, we study the relationships between its equicontinuous structure relation, regionally proximal relation and Veech's relations; and characterize its…
We give a survey on graphs with fixed smallest eigenvalue, especially on graphs with large minimal valency and also on graphs with good structures. Our survey mainly consists of the following two parts: (i) Hoffman graphs, the basic theory…
A graph $G$ percolates in the $K_{r,s}$-bootstrap process if we can add all missing edges of $G$ in some order such that each edge creates a new copy of $K_{r,s}$, where $K_{r,s}$ is the complete bipartite graph. We study…
We study dynamical and computational properties of the set of bi-infinite self-avoiding walks on Cayley graphs, as well as ways to compute, approximate and bound their connective constant. To do this, we introduce the skeleton $X_{G,S}$ of…
Given a dynamical system $(X,T)$ one can define a speedup of $(X,T)$ as another dynamical system conjugate to $S:X\rightarrow X$ where $S(x)=T^{p(x)}(x)$ for some function $p:X\rightarrow\mathbb{Z}^{+}$. In $1985$ Arnoux, Ornstein, and…
The harmonic map energy of a map from a closed, constant-curvature surface to a closed target manifold can be seen as a functional on the space of maps and domain metrics. We consider the gradient flow for this energy. In the absence of…
