A Centre-Stable Manifold for the Focussing Cubic NLS in $${\mathbb{R}}^{1+3}$$

Consider the focussing cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation in \({\mathbb{R}}^3\) :

$i\psi_t+\Delta\psi = -|\psi|^2 \psi. \quad (0.1) $

It admits special solutions of the form e ^itα ?, where \(\phi \in {\mathcal{S}}({\mathbb{R}}^3)\) is a positive (? > 0) solution of

$-\Delta \phi + \alpha\phi = \phi^3. \quad (0.2)$

The space of all such solutions, together with those obtained from them by rescaling and applying phase and Galilean coordinate changes, called standing waves, is the 8-dimensional manifold that consists of functions of the form \(e^{i(v \cdot + \Gamma)} \phi(\cdot - y, \alpha)\) . We prove that any solution starting sufficiently close to a standing wave in the \(\Sigma = W^{1, 2}({\mathbb{R}}^3) \cap |x|^{-1}L^2({\mathbb{R}}^3)\) norm and situated on a certain codimension-one local Lipschitz manifold exists globally in time and converges to a point on the manifold of standing waves. Furthermore, we show that \({\mathcal{N}}\) is invariant under the Hamiltonian flow, locally in time, and is a centre-stable manifold in the sense of Bates, Jones [BatJon]. The proof is based on the modulation method introduced by Soffer and Weinstein for the L ²-subcritical case and adapted by Schlag to the L ²-supercritical case. An important part of the proof is the Keel-Tao endpoint Strichartz estimate in \({\mathbb{R}}^3\) for the nonselfadjoint Schrödinger operator obtained by linearizing (0.1) around a standing wave solution. All results in this paper depend on the standard spectral assumption that the Hamiltonian

$\mathcal H = \left ( \begin{array}{cc}\Delta + 2\phi(\cdot, \alpha)^2 - \alpha &;\quad \phi(\cdot, \alpha)^2 \\ -\phi(\cdot, \alpha)^2 &;\quad -\Delta - 2 \phi(\cdot, \alpha)^2 + \alpha \end{array}\right ) \quad (0.3)$

has no embedded eigenvalues in the interior of its essential spectrum \((-\infty, -\alpha) \cup (\alpha, \infty)\) .

     

Noncommutative Riemann Surfaces by Embeddings in $${\mathbb{R}^{3}}$$

We introduce C-Algebras of compact Riemann surfaces as non-commutative analogues of the Poisson algebra of smooth functions on . Representations of these algebras give rise to sequences of matrix-algebras for which matrix-commutators converge to Poisson-brackets as N → ∞. For a particular class of surfaces, interpolating between spheres and tori, we completely characterize (even for the intermediate singular surface) all finite dimensional representations of the corresponding C-algebras.     

Projectively Equivariant Quantizations over the Superspace $${\mathbb{R}^{p|q}}$$

We investigate the concept of projectively equivariant quantization in the framework of super projective geometry. When the projective superalgebra \mathfrakpgl(p+1|q){\mathfrak{pgl}(p+1|q)} is simple, our result is similar to the classical one in the purely even case: we prove the existence and uniqueness of the quantization except in some critical situations. When the projective superalgebra is not simple (i.e. in the case of \mathfrakpgl(n|n)\not @ \mathfraksl(n|n){\mathfrak{pgl}(n|n)\not\cong \mathfrak{sl}(n|n)}), we show the existence of a one-parameter family of equivariant quantizations. We also provide explicit formulas in terms of a generalized divergence operator acting on supersymmetric tensor fields.     

$$\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_{n}$$ Fractional Branes and Monodromy

We construct geometric representatives for the fractional branes in terms of branes wrapping certain exceptional cycles of the resolution. In the process we use large radius and conifold-type monodromies, and also check some of the orbifold quantum symmetries. We find the explicit Seiberg-duality which connects our fractional branes to the ones given by the McKay correspondence. We also comment on the Harvey-Moore BPS algebras.     

Star product on complex sphere $$\mathbb {S}^{2n}$$

We construct a \(U_q\bigl (\mathfrak {s}\mathfrak {o}(2n+1)\bigr )\)-equivariant local star product on the complex sphere \(\mathbb {S}^{2n}\) as a non-Levi conjugacy class \(SO(2n+1)/SO(2n)\).     

A Chiang-type lagrangian in $$\mathbb {CP}^2$$

We analyse a monotone lagrangian in \(\mathbb {CP}^2\) that is hamiltonian isotopic to the standard lagrangian \(\mathbb {RP}^2\), yet exhibits a distinguishing behaviour under reduction by one of the toric circle actions, namely it intersects transversally the reduction level set and it projects one-to-one onto a great circle in \(\mathbb {CP}^1\). This lagrangian thus provides an example of embedded composition fitting work of Wehrheim–Woodward and Weinstein.     

The Dynamics of Relativistic Strings Moving in the Minkowski Space $$\mathbb{R}^{1+n}$$

In this paper we investigate the dynamics of relativistic (in particular, closed) strings moving in the Minkowski space . We first derive a system with n nonlinear wave equations of Born-Infeld type which governs the motion of the string. This system can also be used to describe the extremal surfaces in . We then show that this system enjoys some interesting geometric properties. Based on this, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for the global existence of extremal surfaces without space-like point in with given initial data. This result corresponds to the global propagation of nonlinear waves for the system describing the motion of the string in . We also present an explicit exact representation of the general solution for such a system. Moreover, a great deal of numerical analyses are investigated, and the numerical results show that, in phase space, various topological singularities develop in finite time in the motion of the string. Finally, some important discussions related to the theory of extremal surfaces of mixed type in are given.     

Dimensional Crossover in Anisotropic Percolation on $${\mathbb {Z}}^{d+s}$$

We consider bond percolation on \({\mathbb {Z}}^d\times {\mathbb {Z}}^s\) where edges of \({\mathbb {Z}}^d\) are open with probability \(p<p_c({\mathbb {Z}}^d)\) and edges of \({\mathbb {Z}}^s\) are open with probability q, independently of all others. We obtain bounds for the critical curve in (p, q), with p close to the critical threshold \(p_c({\mathbb {Z}}^d)\). The results are related to the so-called dimensional crossover from \({\mathbb {Z}}^d\) to \({\mathbb {Z}}^{d+s}\).

Resurgent Transseries and the Holomorphic Anomaly: Nonperturbative Closed Strings in Local $${\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2}$$

The holomorphic anomaly equations describe B-model closed topological strings in Calabi–Yau geometries. Having been used to construct perturbative expansions, it was recently shown that they can also be extended past perturbation theory by making use of resurgent transseries. These yield formal nonperturbative solutions, showing integrability of the holomorphic anomaly equations at the nonperturbative level. This paper takes such constructions one step further by working out in great detail the specific example of topological strings in the mirror of the local \({\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2}\) toric Calabi–Yau background, and by addressing the associated (resurgent) large-order analysis of both perturbative and multi-instanton sectors. In particular, analyzing the asymptotic growth of the perturbative free energies, one finds contributions from three different instanton actions related by \({\mathbb{Z}_3}\) symmetry, alongside another action related to the Kähler parameter. Resurgent transseries methods then compute, from the extended holomorphic anomaly equations, higher instanton sectors and it is shown that these precisely control the asymptotic behavior of the perturbative free energies, as dictated by resurgence. The asymptotic large-order growth of the one-instanton sector unveils the presence of resonance, i.e., each instanton action is necessarily joined by its symmetric contribution. The structure of different resurgence relations is extensively checked at the numerical level, both in the holomorphic limit and in the general nonholomorphic case, always showing excellent agreement with transseries data computed out of the nonperturbative holomorphic anomaly equations. The resurgence relations further imply that the string free energy displays an intricate multi-branched Borel structure, and that resonance must be properly taken into account in order to describe the full transseries solution.     

The Betti Numbers of the Moduli Space of Stable Sheaves of Rank 3 on $${\mathbb{P}^2}$$

This article computes the generating functions of the Betti numbers of the moduli space of stable sheaves of rank 3 on \mathbbP²{\mathbb{P}^2} and its blow-up [(\mathbbP)\tilde]²{\tilde{\mathbb{P}}^2}. Wall-crossing is used to obtain the Betti numbers for [(\mathbbP)\tilde]²{\tilde{\mathbb{P}}^2}. These can be derived equivalently using flow trees, which appear in the physics of BPS-states. The Betti numbers for \mathbbP²{\mathbb{P}^2} follow from those for [(\mathbbP)\tilde]²{\tilde{\mathbb{P}}^2} by the blow-up formula. The generating functions are expressed in terms of modular functions and indefinite theta functions.     

{\mathbb{Z}}-Actions on AH Algebras and {\mathbb{Z}^2}-Actions on AF Algebras

We consider \mathbbZ{\mathbb{Z}}-actions (single automorphisms) on a unital simple AH algebra with real rank zero and slow dimension growth and show that the uniform outerness implies the Rohlin property under some technical assumptions. Moreover, two \mathbbZ{\mathbb{Z}}-actions with the Rohlin property on such a C*-algebra are shown to be cocycle conjugate if they are asymptotically unitarily equivalent. We also prove that locally approximately inner and uniformly outer \mathbbZ²{\mathbb{Z}^2}-actions on a unital simple AF algebra with a unique trace have the Rohlin property and classify them up to cocycle conjugacy employing the OrderExt group as classification invariants.     

Finite-Time Singularities of an Aggregation Equation in $${\mathbb {R}^n}$$ with Fractional Dissipation

We consider an aggregation equation in , n ≥ 2 with fractional dissipation, namely, , where 0 ≤ γ < 1 and K is a nonnegative decreasing radial kernel with a Lipschitz point at the origin, e.g. K(x) = e ^−|x|. We prove that for a class of smooth initial data, the solutions develop blow-up in finite time.

A Note on the Abelian Sandpile in $\pmb{\mathbb{Z}}^{d}$

We analyze the abelian sandpile model on ℤ ^d for the starting configuration of n particles in the origin and 2d−2 particles otherwise. We give a new short proof of the theorem of Fey, Levine and Peres (J. Stat. Phys. 198:143–159, 2010) that the radius of the toppled cluster of this configuration is O(n ^1/d ).     

Mutually Unbiased Unextendible Maximally Entangled Bases in $\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d + 1}$

We study mutually unbiased unextendible maximally entangled bases (MUUMEBs) in bipartite stystem \(\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d + 1}\). By deriving the sufficient and necessary conditions that two MUUMEBs in \(\mathbb {C}^{3}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{4}\) need to satisfy, we first establish two pairs of MUUMEBs in \(\mathbb {C}^{3}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{4}\). Then we present the sufficient and necessary conditions that two MUUMEBs in bipartite system \(\mathbb {C}^{d}\otimes \mathbb {C}^{d + 1}\) need to satisfy, thus generalize the main results of Halqem et al. (Int. J. Theor. Phys. 54(1), 326, 2015).
