A-type Quiver Varieties and ADHM Moduli Spaces Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-10 Peter Koroteev
We study quantum geometry of Nakajima quiver varieties of two different types—framed A-type quivers and ADHM quivers. While these spaces look completely different we find a surprising connection between equivariant K-theories thereof with a nontrivial match between their equivariant parameters. In particular, we demonstrate that quantum equivariant K-theory of \(A_n\) quiver varieties in a certain

Anisotropic Micropolar Fluids Subject to a Uniform Microtorque: The Unstable Case Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-07 Antoine Remond-Tiedrez, Ian Tice
We study a three-dimensional, incompressible, viscous, micropolar fluid with anisotropic microstructure on a periodic domain. Subject to a uniform microtorque, this system admits a unique nontrivial equilibrium. We prove that this equilibrium is nonlinearly unstable. Our proof relies on a nonlinear bootstrap instability argument which uses control of higher-order norms to identify the instability at

Global Trace Formula for Ultra-Differentiable Anosov Flows Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-07 Malo Jézéquel
Adapting tools that we introduced in Jézéquel (J Spectr Theory 10(1):185–249, 2020) to study Anosov flows, we prove that the trace formula conjectured by Dyatlov and Zworski in (Ann. Sci. Éc. Norm. Supér. (4) 49(3):543–577, 2016) holds for Anosov flows in a certain class of regularity (smaller than \({\mathcal {C}}^\infty \) but larger than the class of Gevrey functions). The main ingredient of the

Matrix Model for the Stationary Sector of Gromov–Witten Theory of $$\mathbf{P}^1$$ P 1 Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-07 Alexander Alexandrov
In this paper we investigate the tau-functions for the stationary sector of Gromov–Witten theory of the complex projective line and its version, relative to one point. In particular, we construct the integral representation for the points of the Sato Grassmannians, Kac–Schwarz operators, and quantum spectral curves. This allows us to derive the matrix models.

Abelian Topological Order on Lattice Enriched with Electromagnetic Background Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-07 Jing-Yuan Chen
In topological phases of matter, the interplay between intrinsic topological order and global symmetry is an interesting task. In the study of topological orders with discrete global symmetry, an important systematic approach is the construction of exactly soluble lattice models. However, for continuous global symmetry, in particular the electromagnetic U(1), the lattice approach has been less systematically

Uniform Lipschitz Functions on the Triangular Lattice Have Logarithmic Variations Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-07 Alexander Glazman, Ioan Manolescu
Uniform integer-valued Lipschitz functions on a domain of size N of the triangular lattice are shown to have variations of order \(\sqrt{\log N}\). The level lines of such functions form a loop O(2) model on the edges of the hexagonal lattice with edge-weight one. An infinite-volume Gibbs measure for the loop O(2) model is constructed as a thermodynamic limit and is shown to be unique. It contains

Stellar Representation of Multipartite Antisymmetric States Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-05 C. Chryssomalakos, E. Guzmán-González, L. Hanotel, E. Serrano-Ensástiga
Pure quantum spin-s states can be represented by 2s points on the sphere, as shown by Majorana (Nuovo Cimento 9:43–50, 1932)—the description has proven particularly useful in the study of rotational symmetries of the states, and a host of other properties, as the points rotate rigidly on the sphere when the state undergoes an SU(2) transformation in Hilbert space. We present here an extension of this

One Dimensional Critical Kinetic Fokker–Planck Equations, Bessel and Stable Processes Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-04 Nicolas Fournier, Camille Tardif
We consider a particle moving in one dimension, its velocity being a reversible diffusion process, with constant diffusion coefficient, of which the invariant measure behaves like \((1+|v|)^{-\beta }\) for some \(\beta >0\). We prove that, under a suitable rescaling, the position process resembles a Brownian motion if \(\beta \ge 5\), a stable process if \(\beta \in [1,5)\) and an integrated symmetric

Multi-scale Analysis of Random Alloy Models with Summable Site Potentials of Infinite Range Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-04 Victor Chulaevsky
We propose a reformulation of the probabilistic component of the Multi-Scale Analysis adapted to the alloy-type Anderson models with a non-negligible dependence at large distances due to an infinite range of the media-particle interaction. Despite a considerable wealth of results accumulated in the spectral theory of random operators with short-range potentials, much less is known about the alloy models

Mass Inflation and the $$C^2$$ C 2 -inextendibility of Spherically Symmetric Charged Scalar Field Dynamical Black Holes Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-02 Maxime Van de Moortel
It has long been suggested that the Cauchy horizon of dynamical black holes is subject to a weak null singularity, under the mass inflation scenario. We study in spherical symmetry the Einstein–Maxwell–Klein–Gordon equations and while we do not directly show mass inflation, we obtain a “mass inflation/ridigity” dichotomy. More precisely, we prove assuming (sufficiently slow) decay of the charged scalar

Mirror Symmetry for Perverse Schobers from Birational Geometry Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2021-01-02 W. Donovan, T. Kuwagaki
Perverse schobers are categorical analogs of perverse sheaves. Examples arise from varieties admitting flops, determined by diagrams of derived categories of coherent sheaves associated to the flop: in this paper we construct mirror partners to such schobers, determined by diagrams of Fukaya categories with stops, for examples in dimensions 2 and 3. Interpreting these schobers as supported on loci

For a compact Lie group G we consider a lattice gauge model given by the G-Hamiltonian system which consists of the cotangent bundle of a power of G with its canonical symplectic structure and standard moment map. We explicitly construct a Fedosov quantization of the underlying symplectic manifold using the Levi–Civita connection of the Killing metric on G. We then explain and refine quantized homological

On Efficiently Solvable Cases of Quantum k -SAT Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-12-24 Marco Aldi, Niel de Beaudrap, Sevag Gharibian, Seyran Saeedi
Estimating ground state energies of local Hamiltonian models is a central problem in quantum physics. The question of whether a given local Hamiltonian is frustration-free, meaning the ground state is the simultaneous ground state of all local interaction terms, is known as the Quantum k-SAT (k-QSAT) problem. In analogy to its classical Boolean constraint satisfaction counterpart, the NP-complete problem

Cyclic-Homology Chern–Weil Theory for Families of Principal Coactions Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-12-24 Piotr M. Hajac, Tomasz Maszczyk
Viewing the space of cotraces in the structural coalgebra of a principal coaction as a noncommutative counterpart of the classical Cartan model, we construct the cyclic-homology Chern–Weil homomorphism. To realize the thus constructed Chern–Weil homomorphism as a Cartan model of the homomorphism tautologically induced by the classifying map on cohomology, we replace the unital subalgebra of coaction-invariants

We construct a family of infinite-dimensional positive sub-coalgebras within the Grothendieck ring of Hecke algebras, when viewed as a Hopf algebra with respect to the induction and restriction functor. These sub-coalgebras have as structure constants the 3-point genus zero Gromov–Witten invariants of Grassmannians and are spanned by what we call cylindric Hecke characters, a particular set of virtual

Asymptotic Growth of the Local Ground-State Entropy of the Ideal Fermi Gas in a Constant Magnetic Field Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-12-21 Hajo Leschke, Alexander V. Sobolev, Wolfgang Spitzer
We consider the ideal Fermi gas of indistinguishable particles without spin but with electric charge, confined to a Euclidean plane \({{\mathbb {R}}}^2\) perpendicular to an external constant magnetic field of strength \(B>0\). We assume this (infinite) quantum gas to be in thermal equilibrium at zero temperature, that is, in its ground state with chemical potential \(\mu \ge B\) (in suitable physical

We consider smooth flows preserving a smooth invariant measure, or, equivalently, locally Hamiltonian flows on compact orientable surfaces and show that, when the genus of the surface is two, almost every such locally Hamiltonian flow with two non-degenerate isomorphic saddles has singular spectrum. More in general, singularity of the spectrum holds for special flows over a full measure set of interval

We study (unrooted) random forests on a graph where the probability of a forest is multiplicatively weighted by a parameter \(\beta >0\) per edge. This is called the arboreal gas model, and the special case when \(\beta =1\) is the uniform forest model. The arboreal gas can equivalently be defined to be Bernoulli bond percolation with parameter \(p=\beta /(1+\beta )\) conditioned to be acyclic, or

Optimal Local Well-Posedness for the Periodic Derivative Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-11-14 Yu Deng, Andrea R. Nahmod, Haitian Yue
We prove local well-posedness for the periodic derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which is \(L^2\) critical, in Fourier-Lebesgue spaces which scale like \({H}^s({\mathbb {T}})\) for \(s>0\). Our result is optimal in the sense that it covers the full subcritical regime. In particular we close the existing gap in the subcritical theory by improving the result of Grünrock and Herr (SIAM J Math

Strong invariants of even-dimensional topological insulators of independent Fermions are expressed in terms of an invertible operator on the Hilbert space over the boundary. It is given by the Cayley transform of the boundary restriction of the half-space resolvent. This dimensional reduction is routed in new representation for the K-theoretic exponential map. It allows to express the invariants via

We give an explicit description, in terms of bracket, anchor, and pairing, of the standard cochain complex associated to a Courant algebroid. In this formulation, the differential satisfies a formula that is formally identical to the Cartan formula for the de Rham differential. This perspective allows us to develop the theory of Courant algebroid connections in a way that mirrors the classical theory

In a recent paper (Chen et al. in The generalized TAP free energy, to appear in Comm. Pure Appl. Math.), we developed the generalized TAP approach for mixed p-spin models with Ising spins at positive temperature. Here we extend these results in two directions. We find a simplified representation for the energy of the generalized TAP states in terms of the Parisi measure of the model and, in particular

Gopakumar–Vafa Type Invariants on Calabi–Yau 4-Folds via Descendent Insertions Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-11-09 Yalong Cao, Yukinobu Toda
The Gopakumar–Vafa type invariants on Calabi–Yau 4-folds (which are non-trivial only for genus zero and one) are defined by Klemm–Pandharipande from Gromov–Witten theory, and their integrality is conjectured. In a previous work of Cao–Maulik–Toda, \(\mathop {\mathrm{DT}}\nolimits _4\) invariants with primary insertions on moduli spaces of one dimensional stable sheaves are used to give a sheaf theoretical

By means of a conformal mapping and bifurcation theory, we prove the existence of large-amplitude steady stratified periodic water waves, with a density function depending linearly on the streamfunction, which may have critical layers and overhanging profiles. We also provide certain conditions for which these waves cannot overturn.

Stochastic PDE limit of the dynamic ASEP Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-11-06 Ivan Corwin, Promit Ghosal, Konstantin Matetski
We study a stochastic PDE limit of the height function of the dynamic asymmetric simple exclusion process (dynamic ASEP). Introduced in Borodin (Symmetric elliptic functions, IRF models, and dynamic exclusion processes, 2017), the dynamic ASEP has a jump parameter \(q\in (0,1)\) and a dynamical parameter \(\alpha >0\). It degenerates to the standard ASEP height function when \(\alpha \) goes to 0 or

Wilson loop expectations at weak coupling are computed to first order, for four dimensional lattice gauge theories with finite gauge groups which satisfy some mild additional conditions. This continues recent work of Chatterjee, which considered the case of gauge group \(\mathbb {Z}_2\). The main steps are (1) reducing the first order computation to a problem of Poisson approximation, and (2) using

We prove that the twisted Kähler–Einstein metrics that arise on the base of certain holomorphic fiber space with Calabi–Yau fibers have conical-type singularities along the discriminant locus. These fiber spaces arise naturally when studying the collapsing of Ricci-flat Kähler metrics on Calabi–Yau manifolds, and of the Kähler–Ricci flow on compact Kähler manifolds with semiample canonical bundle and

We present several infinite families of potential modular data motivated by examples of Drinfeld centers of quadratic categories. In each case, the input is a pair of involutive metric groups with Gauss sums differing by a sign, along with some conditions on the fixed points of the involutions and the relative sizes of the groups. From this input we construct S and T matrices which satisfy the modular

Long Time Behavior of 2D Water Waves with Point Vortices Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-11-05 Qingtang Su
In this paper, we study the motion of the two dimensional inviscid incompressible, infinite depth water waves with point vortices in the fluid. We show that the Taylor sign condition \(-\frac{\partial P}{\partial \vec {n}}\geqslant 0\) can fail if the point vortices are sufficiently close to the free boundary, so the water waves could be subject to Taylor instability. Assuming the Taylor sign condition

Disentangling the Generalized Double Semion Model Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-11-04 Lukasz Fidkowski, Jeongwan Haah, Matthew B. Hastings, Nathanan Tantivasadakarn
We analyze the class of Generalized Double Semion (GDS) models in arbitrary dimensions from the point of view of lattice Hamiltonians. We show that on a d-dimensional spatial manifold M the dual of the GDS is equivalent, up to constant depth local quantum circuits, to a group cohomology theory tensored with lower dimensional cohomology models that depend on the manifold M. We comment on the space-time

We introduce the notion of fully simple maps, which are maps with non self-intersecting disjoint boundaries. In contrast, maps where such a restriction is not imposed are called ordinary. We study in detail the combinatorics of fully simple maps with topology of a disk or a cylinder. We show that the generating series of simple disks is given by the functional inversion of the generating series of

We study the single electron model of a semi-infinite graphene sheet interfaced with the vacuum and terminated along a zigzag edge. The model is a Schroedinger operator acting on \(L^2(\mathbb {R}^2)\): \(H^\lambda _{\mathrm{edge}}=-\Delta +\lambda ^2 V_\sharp \), with a potential \(V_\sharp \) given by a sum of translates an atomic potential well, \(V_0\), of depth \(\lambda ^2\), centered on a subset

We show that spherical Whittaker functions on an n-fold cover of the general linear group arise naturally from the quantum Fock space representation of \(U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak {sl}}(n))\) introduced by Kashiwara, Miwa and Stern (KMS). We arrive at this connection by reconsidering the solvable lattice models known as “metaplectic ice” whose partition functions are metaplectic Whittaker functions. First

An explicit formula is obtained for the generalized Macdonald functions on the N-fold Fock tensor spaces, calculating a certain matrix element of a composition of several screened vertex operators.

We derive a sharp scaling law for deviations of edge-isoperimetric sets in the lattice \({\mathbb {Z}}^d\) from the limiting Wulff shape in arbitrary dimensions. As the number n of elements diverges, we prove that the symmetric difference to the corresponding Wulff set consists of at most \(O(n^{(d-1+2^{1-d})/d})\) lattice points and that the exponent \((d-1+2^{1-d})/d\) is optimal. This extends the

We describe the exact WKB method from the point of view of abelianization, both for Schrödinger operators and for their higher-order analogues (opers). The main new example which we consider is the “\(T_3\) equation,” an order 3 equation on the thrice-punctured sphere, with regular singularities at the punctures. In this case the exact WKB analysis leads to consideration of a new sort of Darboux coordinate

A two-dimensional chiral conformal field theory can be viewed mathematically as the representation theory of its chiral algebra, a vertex operator algebra. Vertex operator algebras are especially well suited for studying logarithmic conformal field theory (in which correlation functions have logarithmic singularities arising from non-semisimple modules for the chiral algebra) because of the logarithmic

An inclusion of von Neumann factors \(M \subset \mathcal {M}\) is ergodic if it satisfies the irreducibility condition \(M'\cap \mathcal {M}=\mathbb {C}\). We investigate the relation between this and several stronger ergodicity properties, such as R-ergodicity, which requires M to admit an embedding of the hyperfinite II\(_1\) factor \(R\hookrightarrow M\) that’s ergodic in \(\mathcal {M}\). We prove

A long-standing problem in quantum gravity and cosmology is the quantization of systems in which time evolution is generated by a constraint that must vanish on solutions. Here, an algebraic formulation of this problem is presented, together with new structures and results, which show that specific conditions need to be satisfied in order for well-defined evolution to be possible.

Propagation of Massive Scalar Fields in Pre-Big Bang Cosmologies Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-09-24 Alain Bachelot
We investigate the linear and semilinear massive Klein–Gordon equations in geometrical frameworks of type “Conformal Cyclic Cosmology” of R. Penrose, or “Singular Bouncing Scenario” as well. We give sufficient conditions on the decay of the mass to the fields be able to propagate across the Big-Bang.

Discrete Symmetries of Complete Intersection Calabi–Yau Manifolds Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-09-24 Andre Lukas, Challenger Mishra
In this paper, we classify non-freely acting discrete symmetries of complete intersection Calabi–Yau manifolds and their quotients by freely-acting symmetries. These non-freely acting symmetries can appear as symmetries of low-energy theories resulting from string compactifications on these Calabi–Yau manifolds, particularly in the context of the heterotic string. Hence, our results are relevant for

Entropy Accumulation Commun. Math. Phys. (IF 2.102) Pub Date : 2020-09-23 Frédéric Dupuis, Omar Fawzi, Renato Renner
We ask the question whether entropy accumulates, in the sense that the operationally relevant total uncertainty about an n-partite system \(A = (A_1, \ldots A_n)\) corresponds to the sum of the entropies of its parts \(A_i\). The Asymptotic Equipartition Property implies that this is indeed the case to first order in n—under the assumption that the parts \(A_i\) are identical and independent of each
