Gaussian free fields for mathematicians
نویسنده
چکیده
The d-dimensional Gaussian free field (GFF), also called the (Euclidean bosonic) massless free field, is a d-dimensional-time analog of Brownian motion. Just as Brownian motion is the limit of the simple random walk (when time and space are appropriately scaled), the GFF is the limit of many incrementally varying random functions on d-dimensional grids. We present an overview of the GFF and some of the properties that are useful in light of recent connections between the GFF and the Schramm-Loewner evolution. ∗Courant Institute.

In specialized topics of aesthetics, structure and function, the buildings of Islamic architecture in Iran during certain periods, show the strong presence of intellectual sciences such as mathematics. The use of geometry as a part of the science of numerical mathematics, which in its intellectual position has complex calculations, indicates the connection of Islamic architects with the mathema...
متن کاملSubset Selection for Gaussian Markov Random Fields
Given a Gaussian Markov random field, we consider the problem of selecting a subset of variables to observe which minimizes the total expected squared prediction error of the unobserved variables. We first show that finding an exact solution is NP-hard even for a restricted class of Gaussian Markov random fields, called Gaussian free fields, which arise in semi-supervised learning and computer ...
متن کاملSerials crisis Towards free access to scientific literature
Internet has profoundly changed the way scientific research is carried out. This in turn has altered our attitudes concerning access to scientific information. In this article we review a number of recent initiatives in various fields of science. We argue that the scientists in general, and mathematicians in particular, should actively support a transition towards free access to scientific lite...
متن کاملEffects of intense laser pulse properties on wake field acceleration in magnetized plasma: Half-Sine Shape (HSS) and Gaussian Shape (GS) pulses
In this paper, we have simulated the excitation of wake fields in the interaction of an intensive laser pulses having Half-Sine and Gaussian time envelopes with a fully ionized cold plasma using particle in cell (PIC) method. We investigated the dependency of wake filed amplitude to different laser and plasma parameters such as laser wavelength, pulse duration and electron number density. In ad...
متن کاملOrbital Angular Momentum Density of a Hollow Vortex Gaussian Beam
Here the hollow vortex Gaussian beam is described by the exact solution of the Maxwell equations. By means of the method of the vectorial angular spectrum, analytical expressions of the electromagnetic fields of a hollow vortex Gaussian beam propagating in free space are derived. By using the electromagnetic fields of a hollow vortex Gaussian beam beyond the paraxial approximation, one can calc...
