It is a well-known fact -- which can be shown by elementary calculus -- that the volume of the unit ball in $mathbb{R}^n$ decays to zero and simultaneously gets concentrated on the thin shell near the boundary sphere as $n earrow infty$. Many rigorous proofs and heuristic arguments are provided for this fact from different viewpoints, including Euclidean geometry, convex geometry, Banach space theory, combinatorics, probability, discrete geometry, etc. In this note we give yet another two proofs via the regularity theory of elliptic partial differential equations and calculus of variations.

The unit ball $B_p^n(mathbb{R})$ of the finite-dimensional Schatten trace class $mathcal S_p^n$ consists of all real $ntimes n$ matrices $A$ whose singular values $s_1(A),ldots,s_n(A)$ satisfy $s_1^p(A)+ldots+s_n^p(A)leq 1$, where $p>0$. Saint Raymon
d [Studia Math. 80, 63--75, 1984] showed that the limit $$ lim_{ntoinfty} n^{1/2 + 1/p} big(text{Vol}, B_p^n(mathbb{R})big)^{1/n^2} $$ exists in $(0,infty)$ and provided both lower and upper bounds. In this paper we determine the precise limiting constant based on ideas from the theory of logarithmic potentials with external fields. A similar result is obtained for complex Schatten balls. As an application we compute the precise asymptotic volume ratio of the Schatten $p$-balls, as $ntoinfty$, thereby extending Saint Raymonds estimate in the case of the nuclear norm ($p=1$) to the full regime $1leq p leq infty$ with exact limiting behavior.
Macroscopic equations arising out of stochastic particle systems in detailed balance (called dissipative systems or gradient flows) have a natural variational structure, which can be derived from the large-deviation rate functional for the density of
the particle system. While large deviations can be studied in considerable generality, these variational structures are often restricted to systems in detailed balance. Using insights from macroscopic fluctuation theory, in this work we aim to generalise this variational connection beyond dissipative systems by augmenting densities with fluxes, which encode non-dissipative effects. Our main contribution is an abstract framework, which for a given flux-density cost and a quasipotential, provides a decomposition into dissipative and non-dissipative components and a generalised orthogonality relation between them. We then apply this abstract theory to various stochastic particle systems -- independent copies of jump processes, zero-range processes, chemical-reaction networks in complex balance and lattice-gas models.
In this paper we use Euclidean gravity methods to show that charged black holes which are sufficiently close to extremality must be able to decay. The argument proceeds by showing that Euclidean gravity would otherwise imply a violation of charge qua
ntization. As this is the assumption which leads to the weak gravity conjecture, our argument gives a derivation of that conjecture. We use a small negative cosmological constant as an infrared regulator, but our argument applies to near-extremal black holes which are arbitrarily small compared to the $AdS$ curvature scale. We also give a universal formula for the density of black hole microstates which transform in each irreducible representation of any finite gauge group. Since each representation appears with nonzero fraction, this gives a new proof of the completeness hypothesis for finite gauge fields. Based on these observations we make two conjectures about many-body quantum physics: we propose a lower bound on the critical temperature for the instability of a semi-local quantum liquid, and we propose that our formula for the density of black hole microstates in each representation of a finite gauge group also applies at high energy to any quantum field theory with a finite group global symmetry.
We compute conformal anomalies for conformal field theories with free conformal scalars and massless spin $1/2$ fields in hyperbolic space $mathbb{H}^d$ and in the ball $mathbb{B}^d$, for $2leq dleq 7$. These spaces are related by a conformal transfo
rmation. In even dimensional spaces, the conformal anomalies on $mathbb{H}^{2n}$ and $mathbb{B}^{2n}$ are shown to be identical. In odd dimensional spaces, the conformal anomaly on $mathbb{B}^{2n+1}$ comes from a boundary contribution, which exactly coincides with that of $mathbb{H}^{2n+1}$ provided one identifies the UV short-distance cutoff on $mathbb{B}^{2n+1}$ with the inverse large distance IR cutoff on $mathbb{H}^{2n+1}$, just as prescribed by the conformal map. As an application, we determine, for the first time, the conformal anomaly coefficients multiplying the Euler characteristic of the boundary for scalars and half-spin fields with various boundary conditions in $d=5$ and $d=7$.
