2D simulation of wave-particle coupling inspired by walking droplets
2018
In recent years, a fluid dynamics phenomenon has been observed that shows interesting analogies with several quantum mechanical ones. Under specific experimental conditions, a liquid droplet released on a vibrating liquid persists in jumping, forming a localized wave-particle, and its behaviour resembles that of a de Broglie wave-particle. In this paper we discuss a simplified model for this phenomenon and the results of numerical fluid dynamics simulations implemented on the basis of the model. In spite of the relevant simplifying assumptions of our approach, we observe that a wave-droplet coupling is obtained and the droplet travels at nearly constant velocity, as it is observed in experi…
N-string vertices in string field theory.
1993
We give the general form of the vertex corresponding to the interaction of an arbitrary number of strings. The technique employed relies on the ``comma" representation of String Field Theory where string fields and interactions are represented as matrices and operations between them such as multiplication and trace. The general formulation presented here shows that the interaction vertex of N strings, for any arbitrary N, is given as a function of particular combinations of matrices corresponding to the change of representation between the full string and the half string degrees of freedom.
The loop-tree duality at work
2014
We review the recent developments of the loop-tree duality method, focussing our discussion on analysing the singular behaviour of the loop integrand of the dual representation of one-loop integrals and scattering amplitudes. We show that within the loop-tree duality method there is a partial cancellation of singularities at the integrand level among the different components of the corresponding dual representation. The remaining threshold and infrared singularities are restricted to a finite region of the loop momentum space, which is of the size of the external momenta and can be mapped to the phase-space of real corrections to cancel the soft and collinear divergences.
A duality-invariant Einstein-Planck relation and its consequences on micro-black holes.
2013
We discuss the consequences of a duality-invariant Einstein–Planck (DIEP) relation on the equation of state of micro black holes. The results are analogous to those obtained from the "world-crystal" model, but with some significative differences, as for instance a limiting vanishing value for temperature for very small black holes. The model leads to a total evaporation of micro black holes but with the final stage being very slow.

Hardy inequalities and Assouad dimensions
2017
We establish both sufficient and necessary conditions for weighted Hardy inequalities in metric spaces in terms of Assouad (co)dimensions. Our sufficient conditions in the case where the complement is thin are new even in Euclidean spaces, while in the case of a thick complement we give new formulations for previously known sufficient conditions which reveal a natural duality between these two cases. Our necessary conditions are rather straight-forward generalizations from the unweighted case, but together with some examples they indicate the essential sharpness of our results. In addition, we consider the mixed case where the complement may contain both thick and thin parts.

A DUALITY APPROACH TO THE FRACTIONAL LAPLACIAN WITH MEASURE DATA
2011
We describe a duality method to prove both existence and uniqueness of solutions to nonlocal problems like $$(-\Delta)^s v = \mu \quad \text{in } \mathbb{R}^N,$$ ¶ with vanishing conditions at infinity. Here $\mu$ is a bounded Radon measure whose support is compactly contained in $\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq2$, and $-(\Delta)^s$ is the fractional Laplace operator of order $s\in (1/2,1)$.
Homological Projective Duality for Determinantal Varieties
2016
In this paper we prove Homological Projective Duality for crepant categorical resolutions of several classes of linear determinantal varieties. By this we mean varieties that are cut out by the minors of a given rank of a n x m matrix of linear forms on a given projective space. As applications, we obtain pairs of derived-equivalent Calabi-Yau manifolds, and address a question by A. Bondal asking whether the derived category of any smooth projective variety can be fully faithfully embedded in the derived category of a smooth Fano variety. Moreover we discuss the relation between rationality and categorical representability in codimension two for determinantal varieties.
Unitary Representations of U q (𝔰𝔩}(2,ℝ)),¶the Modular Double and the Multiparticle q -Deformed¶Toda Chain
2002
The paper deals with the analytic theory of the quantum q-deformed Toda chains; the technique used combines the methods of representation theory and the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. The key phenomenon which is under scrutiny is the role of the modular duality concept (first discovered by L. Faddeev) in the representation theory of noncompact semisimple quantum groups. Explicit formulae for the Whittaker vectors are presented in terms of the double sine functions and the wave functions of the N-particle q-deformed open Toda chain are given as a multiple integral of the Mellin–Barnes type. For the periodic chain the two dual Baxter equations are derived.
