A Central Limit Theorem for Gibbsian Invariant Measures of 2D Euler Equations
We consider Canonical Gibbsian ensembles of Euler point vortices on the
2-dimensional torus or in a bounded domain of R 2 . We prove that under the
Central Limit scaling of vortices intensities, and provided that the system has
zero global space average in the bounded domain case (neutrality condition),
the ensemble converges to the so-called Energy-Enstrophy Gaussian random
distributions. This can be interpreted as describing Gaussian fluctuations
around the mean field limit of vortices ensembles. The main argument consists
in proving convergence of partition functions of vortices and Gaussian
distributions.Comment: 27 pages, to appear on Communications in Mathematical Physic
Dimers and cluster integrable systems
We show that the dimer model on a bipartite graph on a torus gives rise to a
quantum integrable system of special type - a cluster integrable system. The
phase space of the classical system contains, as an open dense subset, the
moduli space of line bundles with connections on the graph. The sum of
Hamiltonians is essentially the partition function of the dimer model. Any
graph on a torus gives rise to a bipartite graph on the torus. We show that the
phase space of the latter has a Lagrangian subvariety. We identify it with the
space parametrizing resistor networks on the original graph.We construct
several discrete quantum integrable systems.Comment: This is an updated version, 75 pages, which will appear in Ann. Sci.

Quantizing non-Lagrangian gauge theories: an augmentation method
We discuss a recently proposed method of quantizing general non-Lagrangian
gauge theories. The method can be implemented in many different ways, in
particular, it can employ a conversion procedure that turns an original
non-Lagrangian field theory in dimensions into an equivalent Lagrangian
topological field theory in dimensions. The method involves, besides the
classical equations of motion, one more geometric ingredient called the
Lagrange anchor. Different Lagrange anchors result in different quantizations
of one and the same classical theory. Given the classical equations of motion
and Lagrange anchor as input data, a new procedure, called the augmentation, is
proposed to quantize non-Lagrangian dynamics. Within the augmentation
procedure, the originally non-Lagrangian theory is absorbed by a wider
Lagrangian theory on the same space-time manifold. The augmented theory is not
generally equivalent to the original one as it has more physical degrees of
freedom than the original theory. However, the extra degrees of freedom are
factorized out in a certain regular way both at classical and quantum levels.
The general techniques are exemplified by quantizing two non-Lagrangian models
of physical interest.Comment: 46 pages, minor correction
