2d random Dirac fermions: large N approach

We study the symmetry classes for the random Dirac fermions in 2 dimensions. We consider $N_f$ species of fermions, coupled by different types of disorder. We analyse the renormalisation group flow at the order of one loop. At $N_f$ large, the disorder distribution flows to an isotropic distribution and the effective action is a sigma model.Comment: 12 pages, contribution to the proceedings of Advanced NATO Workshop on Statistical Field Theories, Como, June 18-23, 200

The coefficients of the period polynomials

A general description of the Vi\`ete coefficients of the gaussian period polynomials is given, in terms of certain symmetric representations of the subgroups and the corresponding quotient groups of the multiplicative group \mathbf{F}_{p}^{*} of a finite prime field of characteristics p, an odd prime number. The known values of these coefficients are recovered by this technique and further results of general nature are presented.Comment: 28 page

Quantum Computing and Quantum Algorithms

The field of quantum computing and quantum algorithms is studied from the ground up. Qubits and their quantum-mechanical properties are discussed, followed by how they are transformed by quantum gates. From there, quantum algorithms are explored as well as the use of high-level quantum programming languages to implement them. One quantum algorithm is selected to be implemented in the Qiskit quantum programming language. The validity and success of the resulting computation is proven with matrix multiplication of the qubits and quantum gates involved

Eigenvectors and scalar products for long range interacting spin chains II: the finite size effects

In this note, we study the eigenvectors and the scalar products the integrable long-range deformation of a XXX spin chain which is solved exactly by algebraic Bethe ansatz, and it coincides in the bulk with the Inozemtsev spin chain. At the closing point it contains a defect which effectively removes the wrapping interactions. Here we concentrate on determining the defect term for the first non-trivial order in perturbation in the deformation parameter and how it affects the Bethe ansatz equations. Our study is motivated by the relation with the dilatation operator of the N = 4 gauge theory in the su(2) sector.Comment: 11 pages, no figure; some misprints correcte

An Infinitesimal pp-adic Multiplicative Manin-Mumford Conjecture

Our results concern analytic functions on the open unit $p$-adic poly-disc in $\mathbb{C}^n_p$ centered at the multiplicative unit and we prove that such functions only vanish at finitely many $n$-tuples of roots of unity $(\zeta_1-1,\ldots,\zeta_n-1)$ unless they vanish along a translate of the formal multiplicative group. For polynomial functions, this follows from the multiplicative Manin-Mumford conjecture. However we allow for a much wider class of analytic functions; in particular we establish a rigidity result for formal tori. Moreover, our methods apply to Lubin-Tate formal groups beyond just the formal multiplicative group and we extend the results to this setting.Comment: 14 pages, minor corrections, slightly strengthened the statement of the main theorem.

Multidimensional optimization algorithms numerical results

This paper presents some multidimensional optimization algorithms. By using the "penalty function" method, these algorithms are used to solving an entire class of economic optimization problems. Comparative numerical results of certain new multidimensional optimization algorithms for solving some test problems known on literature are shown.optimization algorithm, multidimensional optimization, penalty function
