Gap universality of generalized Wigner and β -ensembles

László Erdős, Horng-Tzer Yau (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider generalized Wigner ensembles and general β -ensembles with analytic potentials for any β ≥ 1 . The recent universality results in particular assert that the local averages of consecutive eigenvalue gaps in the bulk of the spectrum are universal in the sense that they coincide with those of the corresponding Gaussian β -ensembles. In this article, we show that local averaging is not necessary for this result, i.e. we prove that the single gap distributions in the bulk are universal. In fact,...

Gaudin's model and the generating function of the Wroński map

Inna Scherbak (2003)

Banach Center Publications

We consider the Gaudin model associated to a point z ∈ ℂⁿ with pairwise distinct coordinates and to the subspace of singular vectors of a given weight in the tensor product of irreducible finite-dimensional sl₂-representations, [G]. The Bethe equations of this model provide the critical point system of a remarkable rational symmetric function. Any critical orbit determines a common eigenvector of the Gaudin hamiltonians called a Bethe vector. In [ReV], it was shown that for generic...

Gelation in coagulation and fragmentation models.

Miguel Escobedo (2002)

RACSAM

We first present very elementary relations between climate and aerosols. The we introduce the homogeneous coagulation equation as a simple model to describe systems of merging particles like polymers or aerosols. We next give a recent result about gelation of solutions. We end with some related open questions.

General approximation method for the distribution of Markov processes conditioned not to be killed

Denis Villemonais (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We consider a strong Markov process with killing and prove an approximation method for the distribution of the process conditioned not to be killed when it is observed. The method is based on a Fleming−Viot type particle system with rebirths, whose particles evolve as independent copies of the original strong Markov process and jump onto each others instead of being killed. Our only assumption is that the number of rebirths of the Fleming−Viot type system doesn’t explode in finite time almost surely...

Generalized kinetic equations and effective thermodynamics

Pierre-Henri Chavanis (2004)

Banach Center Publications

We introduce a new class of nonlocal kinetic equations and nonlocal Fokker-Planck equations associated with an effective generalized thermodynamical formalism. These equations have a rich physical and mathematical structure that can describe phase transitions and blow-up phenomena. On general grounds, our formalism can have applications in different domains of physics, astrophysics, hydrodynamics and biology. We find an aesthetic connexion between topics (stars, vortices, bacteries,...) which were...

Generic principles of active transport

Mauro Mobilia, Tobias Reichenbach, Hauke Hinsch, Thomas Franosch, Erwin Frey (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Nonequilibrium collective motion is ubiquitous in nature and often results in a rich collection of intriguing phenomena, such as the formation of shocks or patterns, subdiffusive kinetics, traffic jams, and nonequilibrium phase transitions. These stochastic many-body features characterize transport processes in biology, soft condensed matter and, possibly, also in nanoscience. Inspired by these applications, a wide class of lattice-gas models has recently been considered. Building on the celebrated...

Geometric structure of magnetic walls

Myriam Lecumberry (2005)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

After a short introduction on micromagnetism, we will focus on a scalar micromagnetic model. The problem, which is hyperbolic, can be viewed as a problem of Hamilton-Jacobi, and, similarly to conservation laws, it admits a kinetic formulation. We will use both points of view, together with tools from geometric measure theory, to prove the rectifiability of the singular set of micromagnetic configurations.

Geometry of Lipschitz percolation

G. R. Grimmett, A. E. Holroyd (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We prove several facts concerning Lipschitz percolation, including the following. The critical probability pL for the existence of an open Lipschitz surface in site percolation on ℤd with d ≥ 2 satisfies the improved bound pL ≤ 1 − 1/[8(d − 1)]. Whenever p > pL, the height of the lowest Lipschitz surface above the origin has an exponentially decaying tail. For p sufficiently close to 1, the connected regions of ℤd−1 above which the surface has height 2 or more exhibit stretched-exponential...

Giant component and vacant set for random walk on a discrete torus

Itai Benjamini, Alain-Sol Sznitman (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider random walk on a discrete torus E of side-length N , in sufficiently high dimension d . We investigate the percolative properties of the vacant set corresponding to the collection of sites which have not been visited by the walk up to time u N d . We show that when u is chosen small, as N tends to infinity, there is with overwhelming probability a unique connected component in the vacant set which contains segments of length const log N . Moreover, this connected component occupies a non-degenerate...

Giant vacant component left by a random walk in a random d-regular graph

Jiří Černý, Augusto Teixeira, David Windisch (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We study the trajectory of a simple random walk on a d-regular graph with d ≥ 3 and locally tree-like structure as the number n of vertices grows. Examples of such graphs include random d-regular graphs and large girth expanders. For these graphs, we investigate percolative properties of the set of vertices not visited by the walk until time un, where u > 0 is a fixed positive parameter. We show that this so-called vacant set exhibits a phase transition in u in the following sense: there...

Gibbs–non-Gibbs properties for evolving Ising models on trees

Aernout C. D. van Enter, Victor N. Ermolaev, Giulio Iacobelli, Christof Külske (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

In this paper we study homogeneous Gibbs measures on a Cayley tree, subjected to an infinite-temperature Glauber evolution, and consider their (non-)Gibbsian properties. We show that the intermediate Gibbs state (which in zero field is the free-boundary-condition Gibbs state) behaves differently from the plus and the minus state. E.g. at large times, all configurations are bad for the intermediate state, whereas the plus configuration never is bad for the plus state. Moreover, we show that for each...
