Weyl metallic state induced by helical magnetic order

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Jan Hugo Dil, Jian Rui Soh, Xupeng Yang

In the rapidly expanding field of topological materials there is growing interest in systems whose topological electronic band features can be induced or controlled by magnetism. Magnetic Weyl semimetals, which contain linear band crossings near the Fermi ...

Nonlinear optical diode effect in a magnetic Weyl semimetal

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Chunyu Guo, Hao Yang

Diode effects are of great interest for both fundamental physics and modern technologies. Electrical diode effects (nonreciprocal transport) have been observed in Weyl systems. Optical diode effects arising from the Weyl fermions have been theoretically co ...

Disagreement and fragmentation in growing groups

Jiyong Zhang, Yubo Xie

The arise of disagreement is an emergent phenomenon that can be observed within a growing social group and, beyond a certain threshold, can lead to group fragmentation. To better understand how disagreement emerges, we introduce an analytically tractable m ...

Coxeter Combinatorics For Sum Formulas In The Representation Theory Of Algebraic Groups

Jonathan Gruber

Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p >= h, the Coxeter number of G. We observe an easy 'recursion formula' for computing the Jantzen sum formula of a Weyl module with p-regular highest weight. We also d ...

Invariant integrals on topological groups

Vasco Schiavo

We generalize the fixed-point property for discrete groups acting on convex cones given by Monod in [23] to topological groups. At first, we focus on describing this fixed-point property from a functional point of view, and then we look at the class of gro ...

Effect of Different Communication Affordances on the Emergence of Collaboration Strategies in an Online Multiplayer Game

Pierre Dillenbourg, Barbara Bruno, Hala Khodr, Aditi Kothiyal

In a group, the collective dynamics is governed by the inter- actions between individuals, which can manifest differently depending on the available means of communication. In this paper, we compare 3 conditions of communication affordances (global chat, l ...

Almost impossible E_8 and Leech lattices

Maryna Viazovska

We start this short note by introducing two remarkable mathematical objects: the E8E8 root lattice Lambda8Lambda8 in 8-dimensional Euclidean space and the Leech lattice Lambda24Lambda24 in 24-dimensional space. These two lattices stand out among their lat ...

Asymptotics of Cheeger constants and unitarisability of groups

Nicolas Monod, Maria Gerasimova

Given a group Gamma, we establish a connection between the unitarisability of its uniformly bounded representations and the asymptotic behaviour of the isoperimetric constants of Cayley graphs of Gamma for increasingly large generating sets. The connection ...

Approximating nonabelian free groups by groups of homeomorphisms of the real line

Yash Lodha

We show that for a large class C of finitely generated groups of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the real line, the following holds: Given a group G of rank k in C, there is a sequence of k-markings (G,S-n), n is an element of N whose limit in the ...

Orbital effect and weak localization in the longitudinal magnetoresistance of Weyl semimetals NbP, NbAs, TaP, and TaAs

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Maja Deborah Bachmann

Weyl semimetals such as the TaAs family (TaAs, TaP, NbAs, NbP) host quasiparticle excitations resemblingthe long-sought-after Weyl fermions at special band-crossing points in the band structure denoted as Weylnodes. They are predicted to exhibit a negative ...

Coherent actions by homeomorphisms on the real line or an interval

Yash Lodha

We study actions of groups by orientation preserving homeomorphisms on R (or an interval) that are minimal, have solvable germs at +/-infinity and contain a pair of elements of a certain dynamical type. We call such actions coherent. We establish that such ...

Kaleidoscopic groups: permutation groups constructed from dendrite homeomorphisms

Nicolas Monod

Given a transitive permutation group, a fundamental object for studying its higher transitivity properties is the permutation action of its isotropy subgroup. We reverse this relationship and introduce a universal construction of infinite permutation group ...

Structural Properties Of Dendrite Groups

Nicolas Monod

Let G be the homeomorphism group of a dendrite. We study the normal subgroups of G. For instance, there are uncountably many nonisomorphic such groups G that are simple groups. Moreover, these groups can be chosen so that any isometric G-action on any metr ...

Finitely generated infinite simple groups of homeomorphisms of the real line

Yash Lodha

We construct examples of finitely generated infinite simple groups of homeomorphisms of the real line. Equivalently, these are examples of finitely generated simple left (or right) orderable groups. This answers a well known open question of Rhemtulla from ...

Minimal Polynomials Of Unipotent Elements Of Non-Prime Order In Irreducible Representations Of The Exceptional Algebraic Groups In Some Good Characteristics

Donna Testerman

In a number of cases the minimal polynomials of the images of unipotent elements of non-prime order in irreducible representations of the exceptional algebraic groups in good characteristics are found. It is proved that if p > 5 for a group of type E-8 and ...

Group Approximation in Cayley Topology and Coarse Geometry, Part II: Fibred Coarse Embeddings

The objective of this series is to study metric geometric properties of disjoint unions of Cayley graphs of amenable groups by group properties of the Cayley accumulation points in the space of marked groups. In this Part II, we prove that a disjoint union ...

A finitely presented infinite simple group of homeomorphisms of the circle

Yash Lodha

We construct a finitely presented, infinite, simple group that acts by homeomorphisms on the circle, but does not admit a non-trivial action by C1-diffeomorphisms on the circle. This is the first such example. The group emerges as a group of piecewise proj ...

Group Actions On Dendrites And Curves

Nicolas Monod

We establish obstructions for groups to act by homeomorphisms on dendrites. For instance, lattices in higher rank simple Lie groups will always fix a point or a pair. The same holds for irreducible lattices in products of connected groups. Further results ...
