Harmonic Measure and Winding of Conformally Invariant Curves
The exact joint multifractal distribution for the scaling and winding of the
electrostatic potential lines near any conformally invariant scaling curve is
derived in two dimensions. Its spectrum f(alpha,lambda) gives the Hausdorff
dimension of the points where the potential scales with distance as while the curve logarithmically spirals with a rotation angle
phi=lambda ln r. It obeys the scaling law f(\alpha,\lambda)=(1+\lambda^2)
f(\bar \alpha)-b\lambda^2 with \bar \alpha=\alpha/(1+\lambda^2) and
b=(25-c)/{12}$, and where f(\alpha)\equiv f(\alpha,0) is the pure harmonic
measure spectrum, and c the conformal central charge. The results apply to O(N)
and Potts models, as well as to {\rm SLE}_{\kappa}.Comment: 3 figure
Euclidean Distances, soft and spectral Clustering on Weighted Graphs
We define a class of Euclidean distances on weighted graphs, enabling to
perform thermodynamic soft graph clustering. The class can be constructed form
the "raw coordinates" encountered in spectral clustering, and can be extended
by means of higher-dimensional embeddings (Schoenberg transformations).
Geographical flow data, properly conditioned, illustrate the procedure as well
as visualization aspects.Comment: accepted for presentation (and further publication) at the ECML PKDD

Some flows in shape optimization
Geometric flows related to shape optimization problems of Bernoulli type are
investigated. The evolution law is the sum of a curvature term and a nonlocal
term of Hele-Shaw type. We introduce generalized set solutions, the definition
of which is widely inspired by viscosity solutions. The main result is an
inclusion preservation principle for generalized solutions. As a consequence,
we obtain existence, uniqueness and stability of solutions. Asymptotic behavior
for the flow is discussed: we prove that the solutions converge to a
generalized Bernoulli exterior free boundary problem
Fredholm Modules on P.C.F. Self-Similar Fractals and their Conformal Geometry
The aim of the present work is to show how, using the differential calculus
associated to Dirichlet forms, it is possible to construct Fredholm modules on
post critically finite fractals by regular harmonic structures. The modules are
d-summable, the summability exponent d coinciding with the spectral dimension
of the generalized laplacian operator associated with the regular harmonic
structures. The characteristic tools of the noncommutative infinitesimal
calculus allow to define a d-energy functional which is shown to be a
self-similar conformal invariant.Comment: 16 page
Operator theory and function theory in Drury-Arveson space and its quotients
The Drury-Arveson space , also known as symmetric Fock space or the
-shift space, is a Hilbert function space that has a natural -tuple of
operators acting on it, which gives it the structure of a Hilbert module. This
survey aims to introduce the Drury-Arveson space, to give a panoramic view of
the main operator theoretic and function theoretic aspects of this space, and
to describe the universal role that it plays in multivariable operator theory
and in Pick interpolation theory.Comment: Final version (to appear in Handbook of Operator Theory); 42 page
