Graphs with few 3-cliques and 3-anticliques are 3-universal
For given integers k, l we ask whether every large graph with a sufficiently
small number of k-cliques and k-anticliques must contain an induced copy of
every l-vertex graph. Here we prove this claim for k=l=3 with a sharp bound. A
similar phenomenon is established as well for tournaments with k=l=4.Comment: 12 pages, 1 figur
The existence of a real pole-free solution of the fourth order analogue of the Painleve I equation
We establish the existence of a real solution y(x,T) with no poles on the
real line of the following fourth order analogue of the Painleve I equation,
x=Ty-({1/6}y^3+{1/24}(y_x^2+2yy_{xx})+{1/240}y_{xxxx}). This proves the
existence part of a conjecture posed by Dubrovin. We obtain our result by
proving the solvability of an associated Riemann-Hilbert problem through the
approach of a vanishing lemma. In addition, by applying the Deift/Zhou
steepest-descent method to this Riemann-Hilbert problem, we obtain the
asymptotics for y(x,T) as x\to\pm\infty.Comment: 27 pages, 5 figure
Synchronization of spatio-temporal chaos as an absorbing phase transition: a study in 2+1 dimensions
The synchronization transition between two coupled replicas of
spatio-temporal chaotic systems in 2+1 dimensions is studied as a phase
transition into an absorbing state - the synchronized state. Confirming the
scenario drawn in 1+1 dimensional systems, the transition is found to belong to
two different universality classes - Multiplicative Noise (MN) and Directed
Percolation (DP) - depending on the linear or nonlinear character of damage
spreading occurring in the coupled systems. By comparing coupled map lattice
with two different stochastic models, accurate numerical estimates for MN in
2+1 dimensions are obtained. Finally, aiming to pave the way for future
experimental studies, slightly non-identical replicas have been considered. It
is shown that the presence of small differences between the dynamics of the two
replicas acts as an external field in the context of absorbing phase
transitions, and can be characterized in terms of a suitable critical exponent.Comment: Submitted to Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experimen
Y-System and Deformed Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz
We introduce a new tool, the Deformed TBA (Deformed Thermodynamic Bethe
Ansatz), to analyze the monodromy problem of the cubic oscillator. The Deformed
TBA is a system of five coupled nonlinear integral equations, which in a
particular case reduces to the Zamolodchikov TBA equation for the 3-state Potts
model. Our method generalizes the Dorey-Tateo analysis of the (monomial) cubic
oscillator. We introduce a Y-system corresponding to the Deformed TBA and give
it an elegant geometric interpretation.Comment: 12 pages. Minor corrections in Section
