We study the dynamics of the renormalization operator acting on the space of pairs (v,t), where v is a diffeomorphism and t belongs to [0,1], interpreted as unimodal maps x-->v(q_t(x)), where q_t(x)=-2t|x|^a+2t-1. We prove the so called complex bounds for sufficiently renormalizable pairs with bounded combinatorics. This allows us to show that if the critical exponent a is close to an even number then the renormalization operator has a unique fixed point. Furthermore this fixed point is hyperbolic and its codimension one stable manifold contains all infinitely renormalizable pairs.

We present a systematic implementation of differential renormalization to all orders in perturbation theory. The method is applied to individual Feynamn graphs written in coordinate space. After isolating every singularity. which appears in a bare diagram, we define a subtraction procedure which consists in replacing the core of the singularity by its renormalized form givenby a differential formula. The organizationof subtractions in subgraphs relies in Bogoliubovs formula, fulfilling the requirements of locality, unitarity and Lorentz invariance. Our method bypasses the use of an intermediate regularization andautomatically delivers renormalized amplitudes which obey renormalization group equations.
A nonconventional renormalization-group (RG) treatment close to and below four dimensions is used to explore, in a unified and systematic way, the low-temperature properties of a wide class of systems in the influence domain of their quantum critical point. The approach consists in a preliminary averaging over quantum degrees of freedom and a successive employment of the Wilsonian RG transformation to treat the resulting effective classical Ginzburg-Landau free energy functional. This allows us to perform a detailed study of criticality of the quantum systems under study. The emergent physics agrees, in many aspects, with the known quantum critical scenario. However, a richer structure of the phase diagram appears with additional crossovers which are not captured by the traditional RG studies. In addition, in spite of the intrinsically static nature of our theory, predictions about the dynamical critical exponent, which parametrizes the link between statics and dynamics close to a continuous phase transition, are consistently derived from our static results.
We study the spatial central configuration formed by two twisted regular $N$-polygons. For any twist angle $theta$ and any ratio of the masses $b$ in the two regular $N$-polygons, we prove that the sizes of the two regular $N$-polygons must be equal.
We study ternary sequences associated with a multidimensional continued fraction algorithm introduced by the first author. The algorithm is defined by two matrices and we show that it is measurably isomorphic to the shift on the set ${1,2}^mathbb{N}$ of directive sequences. For a given set $mathcal{C}$ of two substitutions, we show that there exists a $mathcal{C}$-adic sequence for every vector of letter frequencies or, equivalently, for every directive sequence. We show that their factor complexity is at most $2n+1$ and is $2n+1$ if and only if the letter frequencies are rationally independent if and only if the $mathcal{C}$-adic representation is primitive. It turns out that in this case, the sequences are dendric. We also prove that $mu$-almost every $mathcal{C}$-adic sequence is balanced, where $mu$ is any shift-invariant ergodic Borel probability measure on ${1,2}^mathbb{N}$ giving a positive measure to the cylinder $[12121212]$. We also prove that the second Lyapunov exponent of the matrix cocycle associated with the measure $mu$ is negative.
Colloids immersed in a critical or near-critical binary liquid mixture and close to a chemically patterned substrate are subject to normal and lateral critical Casimir forces of dominating strength. For a single colloid we calculate these attractive or repulsive forces and the corresponding critical Casimir potentials within mean-field theory. Within this approach we also discuss the quality of the Derjaguin approximation and apply it to Monte Carlo simulation data available for the system under study. We find that the range of validity of the Derjaguin approximation is rather large and that it fails only for surface structures which are very small compared to the geometric mean of the size of the colloid and its distance from the substrate. For certain chemical structures of the substrate the critical Casimir force acting on the colloid can change sign as a function of the distance between the particle and the substrate; this provides a mechanism for stable levitation at a certain distance which can be strongly tuned by temperature, i.e., with a sensitivity of more than 200nm/K.
