In this note, we prove a 2-systolic inequality on compact positive scalar curvature Kähler surfaces admitting a nonconstant holomorphic map to a positive-genus compact Riemann surface.

If X is a contact Anosov vector field on a smooth compact manifold M and V is a smooth function on M, it is known that the differential operator A=-X+V has some discrete spectrum called Ruelle-Pollicott resonances in specific Sobolev spaces. We show that for |Im(z)| large the eigenvalues of A are restricted to vertical bands and in the gaps between the bands, the resolvent of A is bounded uniformly with respect to |Im(z)|. In each isolated band the density of eigenvalues is given by the Weyl law. In the first band, most of the eigenvalues concentrate of the vertical line Re(z)=< D >, the space average of the function D(x)=V(x)-1/2 div(X)/E_u where Eu is the unstable distribution. This band spectrum gives an asymptotic expansion for dynamical correlation functions.

On a closed manifold $M$, we consider a smooth vector field $X$ that generates an Anosov flow. Let $V\in C^{\infty}\left(M;\mathbb{R}\right)$ be a smooth function called potential. It is known that for any C&gt;0, there exists some anisotropic Sobolev space $\mathcal{H}_{C}$ such that the operator $A=-X+V$ has intrinsic discrete spectrum on \mathrm{Re}\left(z\right)&gt;-C called Ruelle resonances. In this paper, we show a fractal Weyl law: the density of resonances is bounded by $O\left(\left\langle \omega\right\rangle ^{\frac{n}{1+\beta_{0}}}\right)$ where $\omega=\mathrm{Im}\left(z\right)$, $n=\mathrm{dim}M-1$ and 0&lt;\beta_{0}\leq1 is the Hölder exponent of the distribution $E_{u}\oplus E_{s}$ (strong stable and unstable). We also obtain some more precise results concerning the wave front set of the resonances and the invertibility of the transfer operator. Since the dynamical distributions $E_{u}$,$E_{s}$ are non smooth, we use some semi-classical analysis based on wave packet transform associated to an adapted metric $g$ on $T^{*}M$ and construct some specific anisotropic Sobolev spaces.

Given topological spaces X and Y, a fundamental problem of algebraic topology is understanding the structure of all continuous maps X -> Y . We consider a computational version, where X, Y are given as finite simplicial complexes, and the goal is to compute [X,Y], i.e., all homotopy classes of such maps. We solve this problem in the stable range, where for some d >= 2, we have dim X <= 2d - 2 and Y is (d - 1)-connected; in particular, Y can be the d-dimensional sphere S^d. The algorithm combines classical tools and ideas from homotopy theory (obstruction theory, Postnikov systems, and simplicial sets) with algorithmic tools from effective algebraic topology (locally effective simplicial sets and objects with effective homology). In contrast, [X,Y] is known to be uncomputable for general X,Y, since for X = S^1 it includes a well known undecidable problem: testing triviality of the fundamental group of Y. In follow-up papers, the algorithm is shown to run in polynomial time for d fixed, and extended to other problems, such as the extension problem, where we are given a subspace A of X and a map A -> Y and ask whether it extends to a map X -> Y, or computing the Z_2-index---everything in the stable range. Outside the stable range, the extension problem is undecidable.

We give the decomposition into irreducible factors of Weil representations of the symplectic groups at even levels, generalizing previous decompositions at odd levels. We then derive the decomposition of the quantum representations of SL2(Z) arising in the SU(2) and SO(3) TQFTs. As application we show that, when the level indexing the TQFT is not a multiple of 4, the universal construction applied to a cobordism category without framed links leads to the same TQFT.

We give a new and self-contained proof of the finite generation of adjoint rings with big boundaries. As a consequence, we show that the canonical ring of a smooth projective variety is finitely generated.

Given a weighted, undirected graph $G$ cellularly embedded on a topological surface $S$, we describe algorithms to compute the second shortest and third shortest closed walks of $G$ that are neither homotopically trivial in $S$ nor homotopic to the shortest non-trivial closed walk or to each other. Our algorithms run in $O(n^2\log n)$ time for the second shortest walk and in $O(n^3)$ time for the third shortest walk. We also show how to reduce the running time for the second shortest homotopically non-trivial closed walk to $O(n\log n)$ when both the genus and the number of boundaries are fixed. Our algorithms rely on a careful analysis of the configurations of the first three shortest homotopically non-trivial curves in $S$. As an intermediate step, we also describe how to compute a shortest essential arc between \emph{one} pair of vertices or between \emph{all} pairs of vertices of a given boundary component of $S$ in $O(n^2)$ time or $O(n^3)$ time, respectively.

These notes are based on a series of lectures delivered by the author at the University of Toulouse in February 2014. They are entirely devoted to the initial value problem and the long-time behavior of solutions for the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, in the particular case where the domain occupied by the fluid is the whole plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ and the velocity field is only assumed to be bounded. In this context, local well-posedness is not difficult to establish, and a priori estimates on the vorticity distribution imply that all solutions are global and grow at most exponentially in time. Moreover, as was recently shown by S. Zelik, localized energy estimates can be used to obtain a much better control on the uniformly local energy norm of the velocity field. The aim of these notes is to present, in an explanatory and self-contained way, a simplified and optimized version of Zelik's argument which, in combination with a new formulation of the Biot-Savart law for bounded vorticities, allows one to show that the uniform norm of the velocity field grows at most linearly in time. The results do not rely on the viscous dissipation, and remain therefore valid for the so-called "Serfati solutions" of the two-dimensional Euler equations. Finally, a recent work by S. Slijepcevic and the author shows that all solutions remain uniformly bounded in the viscous case if the velocity field and the pressure are periodic in one space direction.

We consider the adiabatic limit in quantum mechanics with several avoided crossings. We compute the interferences effects uniformly w.r. to the gaps and the adiabatic parameter. This way we get the asymoptotic expansion of the global scattering matrix. We use the technics of normal forms introduced in the paper written with B. Parisse (Commun. Math. Phys. 205 pp. 459--500 (1999)).

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety with Gorenstein singularities. We define the notion of a wonderful resolution of singularities of $X$ by analogy with the theory of wonderful compactifications of semi-simple linear algebraic groups. We prove that if $X$ has rational singularities and has a wonderful resolution of singularities, then $X$ admits a categorical crepant resolution of singularities. As an immediate corollary, we get that all determinantal varieties defined by the minors of a generic square/symmetric/skew-symmetric matrix admit categorical crepant resolution of singularities. We also discuss notions of minimality for a categorical resolution of singularities and we explore some links between minimality and crepancy for such resolutions.

This paper presents a model of capital accumulation for a large number of heterogenous producer-consumers in an exchange space in which interactions depend on agents' positions. Each agent is described by his production, consumption, stock of capital, as well as the position he occupies in this abstract space. Each agent produces one differentiated good whose price is fixed by market clearing conditions. Production functions are Cobb-Douglas, and capital stocks follow the standard capital accumulation dynamic equation. Agents consume all goods but have a preference for goods produced by their closest neighbors. Agents in the exchange space are subject both to attractive and repulsive forces. Exchanges drive agents closer, but beyond a certain level of proximity, agents will tend to crowd out more distant agents. The present model uses a formalism based on statistical field theory developed earlier by the authors. This approach allows the analytical treatment of economic models with an arbitrary number of agents, while preserving the system's interactions and complexity at the individual level. Our results show that the dynamics of capital accumulation and agents' position in the exchange space are correlated. Interactions in the exchange space induce several phases of the system. A first phase appears when attractive forces are limited. In this phase, an initial central position in the exchange space favors capital accumulation in average and leads to a higher level of capital, while agents far from the center will experience a slower accumulation process. A high level of initial capital drives agents towards a central position, i.e. improve the terms of their exchanges: they experience a higher demand and higher prices for their product. As usual, high capital productivity favors capital accumulation, while higher rates of capital depreciation reduce capital stock. In a second phase, attractive forces are predominant. The previous results remain, but an additional threshold effect appears. Even though no restriction was imposed initially on the system, two types of agents emerge, depending on their initial stock of capital. One type of agents will remain above the capital threshold and occupy and benefit from a central position. The other type will remain below the threshold, will not be able to break it and will remain at the periphery of the exchange space. In this phase, capital distribution is less homogenous than in the first phase.

Using semi-classical analysis in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ we present a quite general model for which the topological index formula of Atiyah-Singer predicts a spectral flow with the transition of a finite number of eigenvalues between clusters (energy bands). This model corresponds to physical phenomena that are well observed for quantum energy levels of small molecules [faure_zhilinskii_2000,2001], also in geophysics for the oceanic or atmospheric equatorial waves [Matsuno_1966, Delplace_Marston_Venaille_2017] and expected to be observed in plasma physics [Qin, Fu 2022].

We consider the Schr\''odinger equation \begin{equation}\label{eq_abstract} i\partial_t u(t)=-\Delta u(t)~~~~~\text{ on }\Omega(t) \tag{$\ast$} \end{equation}where $\Omega(t)\subset\mathbb{R}$ is a moving domain depending on the time $t\in [0,T]$. The aim of this work is to provide a meaning to the solutions of such an equation. We use the existence of a bounded reference domain $\Omega_0$ and a specific family of unitary maps $h^\sharp(t): L^2(\Omega(t),\mathbb{C})\longrightarrow L^2(\Omega_0,\mathbb{C})$. We show that the conjugation by $h^\sharp$ provides a newequation of the form \begin{equation}\label{eq_abstract2}i\partial_t v= h^\sharp(t)H(t)h_\sharp(t) v~~~~~\text{ on }\Omega_0\tag{$\ast\ast$} \end{equation} where $h_\sharp=(h^\sharp)^{-1}$. The Hamiltonian $H(t)$ is a magnetic Laplacian operator of the form$$H(t)=-(div+iA)\circ(grad+iA)-|A|^2$$where $A$ is an explicit magnetic potential depending on the deformation of the domain $\Omega(t)$. The formulation \eqref{eq_abstract2} enables to ensure the existence of weak and strong solutions of the initial problem \eqref{eq_abstract} on $\Omega(t)$ endowed with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In addition, it also indicates that the correct Neumann type boundary conditions for \eqref{eq_abstract} are not the homogeneous but the magnetic ones$$\partial_\nu u(t)+i\langle\nu| A\rangle u(t)=0,$$even though \eqref{eq_abstract} has no magnetic term. All the previous results are also studied in presence of diffusion coefficients as well as magnetic and electric potentials. Finally, we prove some associated byproducts as an adiabatic result for slow deformations of the domain and atime-dependent version of the so-called ``Moser's trick''. We use this outcome in order to simplify Equation \eqref{eq_abstract2} and to guarantee the well-posedness for slightly less regular deformations of $\Omega(t)$.

We consider a time-dependent small quantum system weakly coupled to an environnement, whose effective dynamics we address by means of a Lindblad equation. We assume the Hamiltonian part of the Lindbladian is slowly varying in time and the dissipator part has small amplitude. We study the properties of the evolved state of the small system as the adiabatic parameter and coupling constant both go to zero, in various asymptotic regimes. In particular, we analyse the deviations of the transition probabilities of the small system between the instantaneous eigenspaces of the Hamiltonian with respect to their values in the purely Hamiltonian adiabatic setup, as a function of both parameters.

The central extension of mapping class groups of punctured surfaces of finite type that arises in Chekhov-Fock quantization is 12 times of the Meyer class plus the Euler classes of the punctures, which agree with the one arising in the Kashaev quantization.

The goal of this article is to study quantitatively the localisation/delocalisation properties of the discrete Gaussian chain with long-range interactions. Specifically, we consider the discrete Gaussian chain of length $N$, with Dirichlet boundary condition, range exponent $\alpha \in (1 , \infty)$ and inverse temperature $\beta \in (0,\infty)$, and show that: - For $\alpha \in (2 ,3)$ and $\beta \in (0 , \infty)$, the fluctuations of the chain are at least of order $N^{\frac{1}{2}(\alpha - 2)}$; - For $\alpha = 3$ and $\beta \in (0 , \infty)$, the fluctuations of the chain are of order $\sqrt{N / \ln N}$ (sharp upper and lower bounds up to multiplicative constants are derived). Combined with the results of Kjaer-Hilhorst, Fröhlich-Zegarlinski and Garban, these estimates provide an (almost) complete picture for the localisation/delocalisation of the discrete Gaussian chain. The proofs are based on graph surgery techniques which have been recently developed by van Engelenburg-Lis and Aizenman-Harel-Peled-Shapiro to study the phase transitions of two dimensional integer-valued height functions (and of their dual spin systems). Additionally, by combining the previous strategy with a technique introduced by Sellke, we are able extend the method to study the $q$-SOS long-range chain with exponent $q \in (0 , 2)$ and show that, for any inverse temperature $\beta\in (0, \infty)$ and any range exponent $\alpha \in (1 , \infty)$: - The fluctuations of the chain are at least of order $N^{\frac{1}{q}(\alpha -2) \wedge \frac{1}{2}}$; - The fluctuations of the chain are at most of order $N^{\left( \frac{1}{q}\alpha - 1 \right) \wedge \frac 12}$.

We exhibit an uncountable family of extremal inhomogeneous Gibbs measures of the low temperature Ising model on regular tilings of the hyperbolic plane. These states arise as low temperature perturbations of local ground states having a sparse enough set of frustrated edges, the sparseness being measured in terms of the isoperimetric constant of the graph. This result is implied by an extension of the article [9] on regular trees to non-amenable graphs. We argue how we can deduce the extremality of an uncountable subset of the Series-Sinai states [30] at low temperature.

The Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_n$ is the subgraph of the hypercube $Q_n$ induced by vertices with no consecutive 1s. We study a one parameter generalization, p-th order Fibonacci cubes $\Gamma^{(p)}_n$, which are subgraphs of $Q_n$ induced by strings without p consecutive 1s. We show the link between vertices of $\Gamma^{(p)}_n$ and compositions of integers with parts in $\{1, 2, \ldots , p\}$. Among other eumerative properties, we study the order, size and cube polynomial of $\Gamma^{(p)}_n$ as well as their generating functions. Many of the given expressions are similar to those for Fibonacci cubes, where the $p$-nomial coefficients play the role of binomial coefficients. We also show that maximal induced hypercubes in Fibonacci $p$-cubes $\Gamma^p_n$ , another generalization of Fibonacci cubes, are connected to vertices of $(p + 1)$-th order Fibonacci cubes. We use this link to determine the maximal cube polynomial of Fibonacci $p$-cubes.

Let f be a stationary isotropic non-degenerate Gaussian field on R^2. Assume that f = q * W where q is both C^2 and L^2 and W is the L^2 white noise on R^2. We extend a result by Stephen Muirhead and Hugo Vanneuville by showing that, assuming that q * q is pointwise non-negative and has fast enough decay, the set {f > -l} percolates with probability one when l > 0 and with probability zero if l < 0 or l = 0. We also prove exponential decay of crossing probabilities and uniqueness of the unbounded cluster. To this end, we study a Gaussian field g defined on the torus and establish a superconcentration formula for the threshold T(g) which is the minimal value such that {g > -T(g)} contains a non-contractible loop. This formula follows from a Gaussian Talagrand type inequality.
