We study the two-boundary extension of a loop model - corresponding to the dense phase of the O(n) model, or to the Q=n^2 state Potts model - in the critical regime -2 < n < 2. This model is defined on an annulus of aspect ratio tau. Loops touching the left, right, or both rims of the annulus are distinguished by arbitrary (real) weights which moreover depend on whether they wrap the periodic direction. Any value of these weights corresponds to a conformally invariant boundary condition. We obtain the exact seven-parameter partition function in the continuum limit, as a function of tau, by a combination of algebraic and field theoretical arguments. As a specific application we derive some new crossing formulae for percolation clusters.

We introduce a new class of two(multi)-matrix models of positive Hermitean matrices coupled in a chain; the coupling is related to the Cauchy kernel and differs from the exponential coupling more commonly used in similar models. The correlation funct ions are expressed entirely in terms of certain biorthogonal polynomials and solutions of appropriate Riemann-Hilbert problems, thus paving the way to a steepest descent analysis and universality results. The interpretation of the formal expansion of the partition function in terms of multicolored ribbon-graphs is provided and a connection to the O(1) model. A steepest descent analysis of the partition function reveals that the model is related to a trigonal curve (three-sheeted covering of the plane) much in the same way as the Hermitean matrix model is related to a hyperelliptic curve.
We present a simple one-dimensional Ising-type spin system on which we define a completely asymmetric Markovian single spin-flip dynamics. We study the system at a very low, yet non-zero, temperature and we show that for empty boundary conditions the Gibbs measure is stationary for such dynamics, while introducing in a single site a $+$ condition the stationary measure changes drastically, with macroscopical effects. We achieve this result defining an absolutely convergent series expansion of the stationary measure around the zero temperature system. Interesting combinatorial identities are involved in the proofs.
We derive general conditions of slip of a fluid on the boundary. Under these conditions the velocity of the fluid on the immovable boundary is a function of the normal and tangential components of the force acting on the surface of the fluid. A probl em on stationary flow of an electrorheological fluid in which the terms of slip are specified on one part of the boundary and surface forces are given on the other is formulated and studied. Existence of a solution of this problem is proved by using the methods of penalty functions, monotonicity and compactness. It is shown that the method of penalty functions and the Galerkin approximations can be used for the approximate solution of the problem under consideration.
This paper contains a set of lecture notes on manifolds with boundary and corners, with particular attention to the space of quantum states. A geometrically inspired way of dealing with these kind of manifolds is presented,and explicit examples are g iven in order to clearly illustrate the main ideas.
The representation of the conformal group (PSU(2,2)) on the space of solutions to Maxwells equations on the conformal compactification of Minkowski space is shown to break up into four irreducible unitarizable smooth Frechet representations of modera te growth. An explicit inner product is defined on each representation. The frequency spectrum of each of these representations is analyzed. These representations have notable properties; in particular they have positive or negative energy, they are of type $A_{frak q}(lambda)$ and are quaternionic. Physical implications of the results are explained.
